I also demand screenshots of homebrew video games that are the obvious main purpose of having this thing in a boring math class. (And I wonder why I have trouble with even simple arithmetic)
Your loss. I'm not a fan of "the free market fixes everything" but that's not what he said (the key word here is "often") and despite my usually mdoerate position he had a lot of thoughtful and intelligent things to say.
The requirement of TI-84/85 in so many classes and standardized tests is a freaking sin. It's almost like a government granted monopoly that fills Ti's coffers, despite equal or better alternatives existing since the whole graphing calculator became an option (I say "almost like" because my understanding is that most of these testing agencies and schools are not being controlled directly by the central government and merely make the decision out of laziness and not wanting to review new or competing technology). TI has never needed to lower their price despite nearly no change in the base design and yet an increasing market and cheaper components. Sad.
Not only that, we know what the Playbook's camera is like. It has been out on the market for forever now. I'm not sure why the deliberate dig was taken in the editor's comment. Also, Gizmodo? Yuk.
Except the law doesn't work the way you think it does. You cannot trademark a commonly used term and turn it against its common use. So I can trademark "Apple" as a music or computer company, but I can't trademark it as a brand of apples and sue people for calling their fruit apples.
"Was the brand free?" It must be lovely seeing the world as a set of exploitable resources through your corporate colored glasses. Who cares if a word was in common use before this guys trademarked it and now he's suing the community he lifted it from? It's value as a "brand" is more important than anything else!
" In the most agressive and impetuous cases, labor will organize as if they have the same rights and profit motivations as management and the firms in order to form their own syndicate to maximize the profits of labor." Yeah, as if they had the same rights.
Yet many of the companies that supply, manage, loan money to, etc. your local stores are in those big cities. Their trucks use national roads and services. So move. To another country. Thanks.
No, it's not possible. During the whole pedal cycle, the wheel is evenly in contact with the ground and the gears are in even contact with the chain. Throwing the angle on there doesn't put the rider's legs in a different position any more than rotating the existing cranks would because the "cycle" still results in the completely circular wheels and gears being in the same place. Simple physics is exactly why this can be dismissed.

Is he going to pass on his legacy to his son, played by Shia LeBoeuf?
PC = "personal" computer. A mainframe or a mini is not a PC. ENIAC totally isn't.
So we should include phones and game consoles as well. Got it.
So add a turtleneck and they just become Apple?
Lots of books get great reviews and I hate them anyways.
Clearly the best way to consume choose your own adventure books. I mean nobody really picks every choice, right?

So you've used it then?
When the letter C you spy, place the E before the I.
Just because you don't understand how to make your own tweets and follow your actual friends doesn't mean everyone else is that confused.
Please show me the list of Jains who have comitted such hideous and opressive acts against their fellow man.
Apparently it's quite commonly used in this community. I'll trust the EFF's judegment over some marketing pud any day.

Wait, so if I don't have the junk in the boot, painting it red DOES make it go a little faster?
Yeah, I mean with all these other awesome high end game engines that have been open sourced in the meantime, who even cares, right?
Yes, Romero and McGee have a GREAT track record these days...
You love writing about imaginary anecdotes, anyways.
