I've been looking for a photonic quantum analog chip to put in my transspacial Heisenberg compensator... the femtosecond direct writing will really help improve the harmonic resonance manifold of my transwarp conduit.
Agreed the notch is just fine, but let's actually get the rest of it bezel-less, and not "bezel-less" as in "the bezel is only x mm" like on the iPhone. There's definitely a bezel. Doesn't have to be wrap-around like the Galaxy Edge, but stop saying it's bezel-less or "all screen" when there's still a bezel.
I love my V20, removable battery, SDCard, headphone jack, but no dual SIM and at least on the Verizon version, the radio is disabled in hardware. And only 0.1mm thicker than the iPhone 8+, as if we needed more proof that the battery/headphone jack make it too thick is a lie. Phones with a dual SIM are pretty rare in the US; my guess is he's in another country or using an imported phone, as tons of models sold in Asia have them.
College might be hard. In another stroke of genius, a felony disqualifies you from federal student aid. Because you gotta try as hard as you can to make them stay criminals; can't let them go improving their lives and getting a good job. USA! USA!
Not really as a career; I write the odd app here and there that bring in a little extra income, and take the occasional project updating legacy VB/VBA code lots of small businesses still run. As a hobby I'm active in that community too focused on using new Windows features in pre-.NET VB. So basically, helping people cheat and avoid a total rewrite:)
I'm going to say "Damn drug war" because its prohibition that makes black market prices so high people rob, steal, and kill. A dose big enough for any habit currently costs only a few dollars at a pharmacy. Heroin maintanence programs where addicts get free heroin virtually eliminate acquisitive crime. Like most of what you want to blame on junkies and drugs, muggings are 100% a consequence of prohibition.
Visitors passing items to prisoners isn't a major source of contraband. Any facility that allows actual contact strip searches upon return, so once you pass something, they have to swallow it and either puke it up or get it from the other end. Guards and civilian employees bring the vast majority.
Also, they're doing this at facilities where there is no contact, visitors being separated by glass. So hardly about security there. Unlikely security is the primary concern elsewhere; the kickbacks will greatly outweigh the small amount of contraband visitors bring.
And just curious, besides contraband what else do you think is a good reason to limit outside visitation? Only other reason is profit.
They claim that when it's flagged as a legal visit, they disable monitoring and turn off recording. Nobody believes them. It's doubtful they do, especially when there's a perfect defense of 'Oh I forgot to flag it' that will always work.
That's a terrible analogy... have you ever actually met a teenager that DIDN'T get ticketed for more than 10 over?? And didn't proceed to immediately go right back to speeding?? It's great we now have aliens living among us, but your knowledge of Earth culture needs some work.. please don't vaporize me.
Used where? All the ones I've seen allow people to visit from home over the internet, in addition to terminals at the facility for those without internet, a computer, and a webcam (which is quite a few since inmates families and friends tend to also be poor).
I have no idea how the last sentence of the first paragraph got cut off there, it was fine in the preview, but it was 'for a jail population of LESS THAN* 500), with a bunch in private rooms for lawyers, I can't imagine the the kickback they must have gotten for that one.

Both is indeed the best way to go. Back in 2010, I was in one of the first jails to use a system like this. It was so much better than a phone for staying in touch with my mother thousands of miles away, but infuriating when they ended in person visits with my fiancee and father who were local. It was obnoxiously punitive too; in-person visits were already behind full glass so there was no security issue at all, then they constructed an entire new building, with close to 100 video chat terminals (for a jail population of
All the other people were hardly abusive, although you sure did miss actual contact with someone unless you had the good fortune to be gay or bisexual.....or in a jail that left some workers unsupervised with guys and gals right across the hall from eachother with no locked doors between them;)
That reminds me of how I was... in middle and high school, I had a TI-89, which to those unfamiliar, has all sorts of advanced stuff like symbolic manipulation (like a+a=2a, or integrate(ln(x)) returns x*ln(x)-x), and BASIC + Motorola 68k asm. I'd spend hours and hours writing programs that did all the work for me. Since I was the only one in any of the classes that had one (everyone else had 83s), and the teachers didn't quite understand what the 89 could do either, they never stopped me. First, it was the competitions that did ban them (or had problems where it didn't help). Then came college. Boy was I screwed. If I had spent 1/5th of the time just studying normally instead of programming my way around it, it would have made my life so much easier. Though the amazing asm games certainly helped my popularity.
At 16, he'll probably be charged as a minor depending on the state and exact offense (more serious crimes would definitely get someone tried as an adult at 16 tho). As long as he's charged as a minor, it's not on his 'permanent record' in the sense it's sealed, so he doesn't have to say (and court checks won't show) that he's a convicted felon after he turns 18 (or 21 in some cases).
If you plot a trend line across an 8 year period, it's neutral, not sloping upwards. To say 'it's really increase fast since President Trumps election' is to imply that it does so against the 8-year trend line, which it does not. You're clearly trying to suggest there's some evidence Trump's term is leading to a better outlook than Obamas, and that's unsupported by the graph; it's neither better nor worse.
You think harming the poor and environment to help the rich and corporations are a good thing? I guess if you're benefiting and unethical.
Trump wants to sharply restrict legal immigration. You've gotta be ignorant or lying to pretend otherwise. On top of that, ones that are already here legally, he wants to make having an American-born child receiving benefits grounds for denying green cards to the parents. DACA, like NN, isn't one of those things you just cancel entirely because you think Congress should do something or it has flaws; too much harm in the interim.
And you think his record on the environment has been *good* up until now? Christ man, you're as delusional as he is. It's only good if your metric for good is how many environmental protection laws he's trashed in the name of corporate profit.
Finally, stop confusing liberals and progressives. I'm not a progressive. I rail on them about their identity politics bs, them shitting all over due process, denying established science, and false cries of racism/sexism every bit as hard as I rail on you Trump supporters and other assorted right wingers.
You're lying about what that graph shows. There is no 8-year trend, it goes back and forth from the mean. The recent upward trend is within the bounds that the years before fluctuated. It's not an argument either for or against Trumps performance.
They also suggested that there was internal knowledge of their network, which I take to mean 'current or former employee', in which case the motive was likely a grievance with the company rather than with bike sharing. Although some bikers are big enough assholes that they could certainly inspire some retribution if they were riding rental bikes. My personal favorites are the ones who yell at me to get out of the way so they can pass on the sidewalk (the law here allows them to ride on the sidewalk but at walking speed and gives pedestrians full right of way).
I think the 'what's he accomplished' thing is more along the lines of 'what's he accomplished that's not screwing the poor, screwing the environment, screwing immigrants and making other gestures to his anti-immigrant base, and undoing positive developments just because Obama started them', which among the things on your list Trump is actually responsible for, is everything. The single thing on your list I could agree on as something good attributable to Trump, withdrawing from the TPP, he is of course reconsidering. And 'scaling back federal overreach' is 99% just giveaways to let companies screw their customers or the environment, so I couldn't agree on that even though there's that 1% of regulations/guidance that were a good thing to remove.
The method isn't very clear, but if marketers can get a phones location that's a massive problem that's not been reported before. Carriers are selling that info, or Apple and Google? That's horrifying if that's what's happening, but its not clear. A few apps selling non-anonymous location info sure, but that wouldn't provide that many people.
Nope, because I clearly delineated that human life and person were different. Biologically, it's a living human organism. Conscious, person, full human.. that's the things to debate. I don't understand why you and a couple others here have trouble with basic biology.
Do we really need to go back over the difference between a cell and an organism? Or is this another 'alternative fact' the right is using to confuse the issue.

That's what parallel construction is for. Come on this is Corruption 101!
