At work so I am not going to follow your link but I have noticed a double standard if you identify as a democrat, leftist or a member of the LGBT community. They allow those people to say a bunch of hateful bigoted things about Jews and Christians. Every report, no matter how blatant, receives a "we found that it does not violate the community standards blah blah blah". But if I were to call a gay person a coward for hiding behind a fake community page to attack christians on christian stories, I get banned for several days. Just for calling them a coward for abusing the system. You see, you cannot block individual accounts from appearing even in comments on other people's stories but not "community" accounts.
And then Chrome turned around and finished Firefox.
Chrome didn't kill Firefix. Mozilla's UX team killed Firefox.
Don't forget the LGBT mafia who chased out one of the founders because he donated a small amount on his own money on his own time several years ago for a cause they disagreed with.
Drawn and quartered. Look up the definition. It is a long and drawn out process for execution.
It's almost as if you don't actually know anything that particular punishment.
Hint: There's a third element to it.
It is almost as if you cannot read at all and you are merely a variation of the Eliza program. The hint for you should have been where I stated "look up the definition" and where I said it is a long and drawn out process for execution.
From memory, you are first hung until nearly dead, disembowelled while alive, castrated and them made to watch as they burn your testicles and entrails before you. Next, your body is cut into quarters and finally beheaded. Often they would place the four quarters of your body and your head on stakes in a prominent location of the town with a sign stating your crimes as a warning to others who might consider committing a similar crime.
Drawn and quartered. Look up the definition. It is a long and drawn out process for execution. They have wasted a lot of people's time and money and deserve to be snuffed out for such blatant and deliberate thievery.
The circumstances for life are pretty darned unique here on Earth
Got me laughing out loud right there.
Do you have proof otherwise. Sorry but Scifi show episodes or rantings of people with Greek last names and funny hair on the History channel do not count as proof.
I live in Canada and I use debit for EVERYTHING. I will debit a purchase of less than a dollar, seriously.
So you are the arsehole causing inflation in prices of small items in Canada? Grow up. What do you think adults did before debit cards? They carried cash.
There is no service charge to use it and this way I don't have to have a pile of change in my pocket.
You might not be paying for it directly but all of us end up paying more because the vendor is charged a fee by the card processor you dick. If you are using debit for transactions of less than 10 dollars at a mom and pop shop then you deserve to be mugged and beaten by the local thugs. Losers like you think only about yourself and not other consumers or the shop owners.
It is much easiest to keep track of my purchases as they are all on my online statement. I never carry cash. I use my credit card only for online purchases.
I recently went to the states and I noticed so many people still using cash. However, the bigger surprise was how many people used credit cards to pay for everything! (a beer at the pub, put it on credit) No wonder their financial system was in ruin back in 2008. I used my CC while in the states for the most part to avoid carrying cash. I noticed that they don't use the chip / pin. I was never asked to input my pin for my CC once while in the states. I found this odd. This has been standard in Canada for a few years now.
Loser. You need to carry cash for emergencies. What if there is a market crash? What if there is a power outage? What if the debit system goes down?
My wife just got her Capital One "Chip+Signature" card. Last month my Santander (MA) debit card was replaced for another magstripe only debit card, Exp. 2019
Some banks are not catching up..
Chip and signature? Is that an American thing? Here in Canada, we went from Swipe and signature to Chip and PIN years ago. The only time our system required a signature with the chip was for the first use.
I personally almost never carry cash any more, the only time I really use cash is when out drinking or going to a really tiny corner shop/off licence where they still charge extra to pay by card. I use an oyster card for my public transport (or my debit card if I'm out of credit), and pay for most my small purchases using contact less, I can pay for parking by phone, and I still have a debit and credit card for anything bigger.
Why would I pay for any high value goods in cash, when I can put it on my credit card, get chargeback protection and still not pay any interest on it?
You are proud of being dependent on the system? If there is a a power outage or if the debit system goes down, good luck getting anything without cash.
I recall being at a movie theatre lining up to purchase tickets for a popular title when the debit system went down in the area. Fortunately, I had cash so I was able to get into the theatre and see the film while all of the "winners" with only debit and credit cards got to go home.
Do not bother calling yourself an adult if you do not carry around enough cash in case of an emergency or just simply to pay for really small purchases.

More?: We're like America (well, our government tries to be, at every opportunity), only without your wonderful constitutional freedoms!
Have you been under a rock? Free Speech zones? 135k fines for refusing bake a cake and a gag order to not speak about it and how the ruling violates, separation of church and state, the "congress shall pass no law preventing free exercise of religion" and freedom of speech?
The bakery in question had sold numerous cakes to gay people including that "couple" in the past but refused to create a specific cake as a matter of conscience.
Sorry but you can get several smartphones today running android with better than 8MP cameras which are capable of shooting 4k video. Why would someone want to pay a premium for 1080p video?
Internet access is nearly as important as electricity in our modern age. I'd place it as more important than phones. A phone can call a friend... the internet shows you the world.
If you feel that way, volunteer your own money. You seem to be a spendthrift when it comes to using other people's money.
It just took me 4.2 s to copy a 30 MB file on my bogged-down work computer, with an HDD running Windows 7.
I'm not buying it.
Reading comprehension is not your strong suit. The previous poster was talking about a tonne of little files. Even deleting a tonne of little files takes a long time for some reason even with a direct delete skipping the recyle bin.
So, what exactly do they mean by "breach". Someone got into some systems? Once there, did they take copies of data? That's a lot of data. Why didn't anyone see the mass exodus of gigabytes? The weasel worded breathless media reports are just dripping with a lack of specificity and reek of "omg phear the evil hackerz!" - they feel more designed to generate fear than inform. I view the whole thing with a jaundiced, skeptical eye.
The mass exodus of gigabytes? You do know that copying/extracting data does not result the removal of the original bytes? The sci-fi movies where copying something removes the original automatically must have confused you. Are you talking about bandwidth traffic? Use the correct words.
Apparently she does not understand how netflix works. If I travel to the US, I can only watch US content while visiting there without using a VPN to pretend to be in Canada even though I have a Canadian Netflix account. If I travel to the UK, I can only watch UK netflix and so on.
Serious, you need to gain some skill in Object oriented programming. One key skill would be understanding the ins and outs of reflection. With reflection, you can write code that can handle virtually an class type you can throw at it. I am also in my early 40's but I made sure to learn Object Oriented programming first in Visual Fox Pro and then some Java code and finally the.NET framework during my 30's.
If you need to write a series of different CSV formats with specific field names and some hardcoded values, consider using reflection to write a custom writer class that you can pass in a format map class and the data class into. The data class should have all data you want to expose stored in public properties if you are using.NET. If you are writing to XML, just create a class with a property hierarchy to match your data structure including the hierarchy and use the builtin XMLserializer. Be careful if you plan on outputting to a string first as strings are Unicode (UTF-16) whereas XML is usually UTF-8. You might have to extend the Stringwriter class with an Encoding parameter.
My girlfriend and I were wondering who exactly the Holy Ghost is. I mean, it's not God, and not his son Jesus, so who the fuck is it? I decided it was God's imaginary friend.
I feel sorry for you. May god have mercy on your soul. You should not blaspheme the holy spirit. I hope for your sake that you are an atheist because if you are not then you just doomed yourself.
Geniuses who talk about their genius rather than their accomplishments are not really geniuses, as intelligence without application is pointless.
Then again, how could one self-assess the difference between being so smart that people can't follow what they're saying v/s being a really bad communicator who isn't really smart? Compound that with American society, in particular, where everyone's told that they're a winner even if they're not...
Are you aware that some people cannot "talk" about their accomplishments because of where they work?
Well now, this should end up a wonderful thread full of angsty "geniuses" whining about how they can totally identify with the Termites because no one "gets" them.
When you point a finger at someone, you have the remainder pointing back at you. Take a long look in the mirror buddy.

Yep. Single vendor solution. What could possibly go wrong?
Multiple vendors does what exactly? Increased internal support costs. Spread it around to more of your "friends" perhaps?
What exactly do you want me to notice in the mirror?
Your hubris.
