    No, in CA, the Vehicle Code specifically notes that driving is a privilege, not a right.

    See sections 12800 and others, where it specifically refers to "driving privilege"

    My last Jury Duty notice came exactly 1 week before the date I was summoned to appear. I was able to postpone, but they don't send them very far in advance any more.

  12. Re:90 trials in 11 years? on US Trials Off Track Over Juror Internet Misconduct · · Score: 1

    Math nitpick.

    3/100 of one percent.

    Assume 300,000. Then 1% is 3000. .3% is 1000. .03% is 100.

  19. Funny math. on AMD Releases Three New Low-Cost CPUs · · Score: 1

    From TFS:

    1090T = $235
    1100T = $265

    "Given that 1090T got the downward nudge in price to $235, however, the 1100T offers slightly better performance for less money."

    Could someone explain the math to me? It seems to me that $265 is more money than $235, but this is probably just advanced math.

    You can't take it directly to SCOTUS. You have to file suit in District court, and then the appeals through the Circuit Court, and then appeal to SCOTUS, who can decide not to hear your appeal.
