ATM machine? I won't settle for less than an automated ATM machine, into which I enter my PIN number and withdraw my cash money-- usually around $60 dollars.
How is this any different than The View allowing Behar, Goldberg, and O'Donnell to air their outrageous opinions as fact? Don't say it's because the View isn't news, because Hannity and Beck aren't news either. How about the parade of talking heads on ALL the networks who come on calling the tea partiers racist and violent, and their only evidence is a shot of some guy at a rally (legally) packing heat-- who happens to be black, but they cut off his head so you couldn't see that. How about how those same talking heads call for civility, only until the union protesters decided to start making threatening statements, beating people, and destroying property?
Most states have annual safety inspections. Some, like NJ, waive the inspections for the first year or so of new vehicles. Some don't have annual inspections, so yes, I would be concerned about those. Ironically, the states without inspections (like NM) have some of the highest speed limits.
Definitely not. We're talking about a media that conflates violent behavior with other behaviors of the perp. If the perp plays violent video games, video games are responsible for the crime. If the perp used encryption, encryption is responsible for the crime. If the perp used a gun to protect himself from unidentified intruders knocking down his door at 3 AM, guns are responsible.
The Fed is manipulating the price through quantitative easing. Arrest Bernanke at the press conference along with all the presidents of the federal reserve banks.
Every time we hear about a wire transfer, the police have to point out how they're untraceable and any money sent over them is just gone. This sounds insane to me, why aren't there computerized logs of every single transaction?
"A new report put out by Greenpeace argues that the IT sector is not doing enough to decrease reliance on 'dirty energy', saying the Internet, if it were treated as its own country, would be the 5th largest emitter of greenhouse gases"
Well, it's not a country. It's nothing like a country. It's a network that services nearly the entire populated world. This kind of rhetoric is as meaningless as the average Slashdot car analogy.
I guess what we need are laws (state of federal; preferably the former) defining what a "license" is. You see, the license analogy seems to work well until you get a bad disc. If you tried to get the company to replace the disc (outside of a 30-day warranty period that seems to be standard on the packaging) at cost of materials and shipping, I can almost guarantee they'll demand you buy another copy. All we need are a few people to be told that and take it to court. They'll have to decide whether you're buying or licensing. I think that their BS about not guaranteeing the game will work on your system might come to an end, as well, because I could see how licensing a non-working product and refusing to rectify it or void the contract could be seen as fraud.
Obama just talked about in his terrible speech about the poor buying housing. Why are the poor buying houses? You don't buy expensive liabilities when you're poor! If you buy anything expensive, you buy an investment property that will make money. It's stupid to take on risk for something that isn't even capable of improving your position. I don't want the poor homeless, but they shouldn't be homeowners! That's what renting is for.

Sounds like you belong to the bad-car-analogy religion.
Who are those? You sound like the belligerent one, here.

I understand that there are, ahem... peripherals that allow one to do both.
What's the difference? Ah ha ha, troll got trolled.

That doesn't work for the second amendment, so I doubt it will work for the first.
On DailyKos, wouldn't a "troll" post be anything informative or insightful?

There are. Protip: the police (and banks) lie.
Come, come, elucidate your thoughts.
No, stool actually. Stool!
I do pretty well with two. Or are you talking about... nevermind.
They also released the new name, which will tentatively be, "Poop".
80 mm CDs fit just fine, and if they weren't a part of the original standard they were added very early.
Yeah, because solar energy works really well when the sky is full of ash.

So Al Jazeera doesn't have any opinion shows?
I think 1960s special effects are going to get old really quickly.
... and inclined planes.
Yes! Even more racist than the master and slave IDE terminology! And if you disagree, that means YOU'RE racist!
