I use LibreOffice Calc all the time, works fine for me. Presentation software I never use. If you want a database, get a real one like Postgres. Access is shit.
Batteries in those can last for six months or more
6 months?? Don't US phone lines have power running down them? In the UK I have landline phones that take no batteries, and just operate once plugged into the phone line.
Why do you think that caring about the Quran necessarily results in causing problems for other people, especially non-Muslims?
Have you read it? English translations are good enough. It's one of the most spiteful, nasty, hate-filled books ever written. And it's chock full of stuff about either killing infidels or celebrating how much they will suffer in the afterlife.
Your experience with Islam is extremely atypical compared with most of the world, and probably has a lot to do with Islam having very low numbers in America (although higher numbers in some parts, where they are of course becoming more demanding).
Also identifying as a Muslim doesn't make you one. If you had no problem with these people they probably didn't give a damn about the Quran.
Actually, most of the world that has had personal experience dealing with Islam is in that "crazy bunch of people" category. It's only some in the West who haven't figured out yet that they don't have a choice whether to be in conflict or not.
To you, they seem silly. To the busy mom or parents, they are a godsend.
There's your problem right there. Society telling a mom she should be "busy" (and by that, you mean out of the house, working). Society was a lot happier when we had well-defined gender roles and women were not expected to work like a man when they had children to look after!!
and twice as likely to be subjected to unsolicited sexual advances (6 vs 3 percent).
FFS just get over it. Men are expected to initiate relationships. It's called life. It's not a problem. If you don't like it you might as well kill yourself now.
The real solution is: admit that Islam is fundamentally incompatible with our way of life. Imagine a country with no Islam. This problem is almost completely created by an ideology that wants to kill us and enough people willing to practice it seriously.
I know some people think that going into the office helps productivity or something through face-to-face communication, but I haven't had that experience at all as a developer. You're sitting there in the huge amounts of traffic congestion, thinking what the heck is the point in all these people moving from A to B when they could be working from home? Then you go into the office just to be distracted all the time (to different degrees, depending on how badly designed the office is - the open-plan office is the worst).
From now on I'm really trying to demand a majority of time home working from any new job up front, if I can get it.
From a strict grammatical perspective, "associated with systematic discrimination or marginalization" only applies to "other characteristic", and so does not modify the previous words' meaning at all, but implies that they are also "associated with systematic discrimination or marginalization".:-)

If you ask me, that's a pretty gigantic "unless" for a browser that claims it's big on security. Admin can get your password and other personal details? No problem, that's acceptable for some reason! I ended up quitting my job over it because the company's policy was to do HTTPS snooping.
Expensive, well-built, upgradeable (in a limited sense as laptops go), repairable, long term support.
LG G3? I have one running CyanogenMod and it pretty much ticks all those boxes, though I'm not sure about long-term support. I doubt I'll ever need another phone. There's not much needs improving.

Nothing to hide, nothing to fear.
We've been having to live with that in the UK for a while now - enjoy it in China.
If we build them on beaches the beaches will just sink and raise the water level anyway.
And "We have had".
The anti-turbine mob are all nimbys worried about spoiling their views
What's so bad about not wanting your views spoiled?

So in this analogy, what is sex?

With wireless charging, I wouldn't be surprised to see them release a 0 port phone.
In other words it's a Veblen good.
Do they offer certificates for longer than 3 months yet or are they still shit?
"Plenty of wind" is subjective. Unless it has a constant wind it will fluctuate, making it useless for providing a reliable baseload.
... in a way the EU didn't like. The EU is fine with bias; they just want it to be bias in their favour.

I bet you just can't stand FUCKING WHITE MALEs eh?
The iPhobd at first was going to have a keyboard also, and probably lots of other useless crap.
Yeah, I can't see one reason why you'd want a physical keyboard!
1) Import lots of Muslims
2) Wait for inevitable terrorist attacks
3) Use to justify further crackdowns on privacy and free speech
4) Goto 1
