Oh come on. I'm sure the topic of "will this shit work if there is a He leak nearby" never came up in the design meetings. I can't fault apple for this issue.
It is cheap now but what happens when it becomes scarce? How many other things are causing issues now because the cost of recovery isn't worth the cost to just waste it?
I'm one of Apple biggest critics and I really can't see any reason to blame apple for this issue at all. I actually find the science behind the issue to be kind of cool.
In my option Al Gore has probably done more harm than good. He flies to climate conferences in private jets and rumor has it his house consumes as much electricity as a small town. I'm not sure I believe that last one but some people do. These 'facts' about Al Gore are often touted in conservative circles and on Foxnews when ever climate change comes up. Unfortunately, these people are the ones running the country right now that get their science from these sources.
I actually pressed reply to correct your thinking on bluetooth, then I realized your correct. I use bluetooth 90% of the time but nothing beats wired headphones for reliability. When I'm doing a live show I have my track preview on the headphone channel. With Muxxx you can send it out over bluetooth but its a pain in the ass to do. An if your bluetooth fails, which happened to me, in the middle of a live show you are fucked. Never had my wired phones fail in a show but if they do I keep a spare set on hand. Just plug them and keep going.
This is part of the problem with both climate change believers and deniers. Extremist on both sides have taken lead on the issue. An this makes both sides look like they are infested with loons. Of course having Al Gore on the climate change band wagon didn't help.
Here is something both you climate change believer and deniers can believe. Fossil fuels are poisoning the planet and are a limited resource. The sooner we are off them the better. So eventually we will ether run out of them or they will make the planet unlivable. Ether way civilization will end. Better to do something now than wait till its to late.
Be prepared for what? We reached a plateau of power vs need a long time ago. The average consumer the plateau topped out about 10 years ago. I am a power user and I'm having to make up excuses to upgrade my 6700K to something more powerful. It does everything I need it to do and with plenty of processing room left over.
She is a useless twat from hell. I really tried to use her, I tried to use her like $2 whore. Jumped through the hoops, did the voice training; my cat understand my commands better. The cat just ignores me. Hell that bitch from google is more useful. That alone tells you how bad cortana is.
This is not subsistence survival. Living on the streets, picking through trash for your food is. The jobs these factories bring is a entry point. $2 a day may not sound like much by western standards but in many of these countries it is a living wage. That is what these people need, not more hand outs.
As more money comes into the community then while the parents work children can go to school. There will be enough money for this to happen. As more money comes in to the community then there will be more left over for government services. The schools and other social safety nets that we take for granted. With the schools will come the education that is needed and only then will poverty start to diminish.
You can't just wish these things in to existence. It takes a stable society for them to exist. An a stable society demands that people have enough money to meet basic survival needs. An for that to happen, you have jobs.
The solar system, in theory, can easily support 1 trillion humans. In fact with the resources of asteroids, moons, and Oort cloud I imagine the solar system could support many times that.
Your first mistake is assuming they would all live here on earth. I don't even believe there is a enough physical space to hold 1 trillion humans. Your second mistake seems to be that we will be doing with with today's technology. Which we won't.
There is enough space and resources out there, and given time it could happen. Does that mean it will? Not a chance.
Doesn't work. It has been tried many times in history. You only have to look at places in Africa to see the results. Communism never works. It looks good on paper and sounds good in theory but it has never worked on a large scale in real life.
Really? You don't say? I know you really don't understand this but in many ways you are part of the problem. You probably are not even aware of it.
You say things things, education, welfare, and assured housing like they are an option. You base your answers on a western point of view. Where the ideal of being "poor" means you might have to live in government housing or eat from a soup kitchen. You really have no concept of poverty. Having nothing.
In these places there is no welfare, no hope of education, and most certainly no assured housing. There is simply no money for this. Survival means lasting to your next meal.
You can not offer the same opportunities and benefits where they do not exist. Sometimes these "shitty" factory jobs are all they have. The difference between a chance to make their lives better and starving to death.
You have to understand the way things are before you can start talking about the way they should be. The "shitty" factory jobs are not perfect solutions but in many cases that is all there is. An they do help. Many times once the factory gets established the area starts to go up as more money comes into the community. Then wages do in many cases start to go up. $2 a day doesn't sound like much to a westerner, but in many places that is a living wage.
Certain parts of of the "religious right" along with a great many others are a bunch god damn idiots. Sorry I bit your head off earlier. I actually do understand what you are trying to say.
Unfortunately, it isn't that simple. In a ideal world it would be but we have to work with what we have. Societies and religious "right" don't change over night. So many people don't really understand how many problems are caused by dogma.
Oh go fuck yourself. At least I'm actually doing something. How many kids do you sponsor? I"m willing to bet its 0. You sit around behind your computer screen passing out judgement on everyone else. How about getting off your ass and doing something instead of bitching about what every else is doing?
Yeah...except what Wally World does is bleed the people making the products they sell dry until they have to be made in sweatshops to produce a product at the price Wally World wants...Huffy ring any bells?
I hear this line of BS from anti walmart and anti-corp. crowed all the time. But what we never hear from you is the follow through or the alternatives. The popular version is that of a 8 year old child putting together a $100 sneakers for a few dollars a day. What you never mention is the alternatives for that child. Instead you sit there on your high horse passing out judgement from on high.
Here are the options for that child putting together those sneakers Lets see they can go in to the sex trade, where a add deal of them wind up. Getting used dozens of times a day for nothing more than scraps. Then again they could just simply starve on the streets, or any number options, most of them not better than the sex trade.
Most of them are glad to have that job for a few dollars a day. The options for them are far worse.
You found them stunningly poor? I have found them for the most part to be completely useless. 90% of the shit that gets sent back is nothing but ads. I'm doing a search for kernel RAID tweaking and I get a page full of shit where I can hire someone to do it for me, or shit that has nothing to do with the shit I'm looking for.
I found what I was looking for using duckduckgo. Damn, Linux has a nice RAID level.
Let's just remind ourselves that you are going apeshit
Hey Hey, lets not blow this out of portion. Seems to me he is just going a little batshit, but not at the apeshit level. Lets not ratchet this up THAT level if we can help it.:)
Same thing happened to me. I had a job doing a bunch of manual tasks that took hours to accomplish. I wrote a few batch files that would do the tasks that used to be done manually. Management figured out they didn't need a salaried professional on staff now and could hire monkey from the zoo for a few bananas.

Great Gods fellow sentient being! Don't post things like that to a open forum! Now I have to go cower in the corner of a dark room till it passes.

Typical answer that I would expect from you people. You always are the first to pass blame but never one to actually suggest something useful.

Only a idiot argues with a zealot. You are clearly a zealot so you are not worth my time. Figure it out for yourself.
