This is a topic that goes around on./ every now and then.
When all the manufacturing etc is done by robots - surely the entire capitalist system will crash. The inherent nature of capitalism is to have a triangle - the wide base with people doing low paid jobs, the people who go to university and get a good education to get well paid jobs in the middle, and the 1%ers at the top.
If you start messing with that triangle, won't the whole thing collapse?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting there's anything inherently wrong with this system (buggy whip manufacturers etc) - but...?
Having well documented Open APIs is one thing. But until you have open source software, you will never see the undocumented APIs that the owners of the software are keeping hidden to give them an edge. I'd be surprised if Microsoft aren't the only ones who do this.
Better yet, the pat downs take longer - meaning the queues for boarding get longer. Sooner or later the airlines will complain it's taking too long for their passengers to get through the boarding process.
Unfortunately the TSA will just employ more unemployed morons to grope people. Probably still cheaper than buying more scanners though.
But I should have the right in 10 years time, not to be searched for by some HR drone to find out what my opinion was 10 years ago. Me now won't be the same as me in 10 years time. Do you think the HR drone will differentiate?
There's a difference between people knowing stuff now, and in 10 years a prospective employer looking at stuff that's on FB or Google now. What is relevant now might not be relevant later. But I know a few HR drones who wouldn't distinguish between me now and me 10 years ago.
There is also that. It is my understanding that no one pays any kind of tax there - the country makes so much money selling oil it doesn't need to take any money from its people.
It'll be interesting to see how Libya's transition works out, given NATO's involvement - even if it was only from the air.
We shouldn't be trying to change someones thought patterns to whatever the majority thinks is right, we should just strive to ensure that those with more radical ideas don't inhibit the livelihood of others.
You think that someone expressing their homophobic/racist views doesn't inhibit a gay or a black man's livelihood? Then I suggest you've never been subjected to such bullying. Irrespective of the abuser's physical actions - the verbal abuse will have an impact on their livelihood. So by banning/outlawing/whatever you wanna call it racism and homophobia, you are preventing the inhibition of livelihood.
As to the "spouting" - it's called humour (you should try it some time) - using someone else's rhetorical style of prose to demonstrate he's being a dick.
I don't know much about enterprise grade ADFs. but I imagine if a company has one the impact of a single user will have little impact on the overall life span of such a machine. If it is such a mission critical machine, you would hope they would have a service contract which regularly replaces parts whether they need replacing or not.
I was being a little trolly (as I believed I mentioned). I was copying the OP's style of speech, imitating him to demonstrate he's an idiot and so backward he can see his own asshole by looking down!
Ironically what you're pointed out is how it is in most of Europe. It's acceptable to be racist etc - provided their racist/homophobic speech doesn't incite. England introduced a law specifically to target this kind of problem with the Muslim clerics. Abu Hamza al-Masri is an example.
You can be racist etc as you like anywhere in the West. The difference is that outside of America you'd have no friends. In America they'd welcome you into the Republican party and ask if you want to run as president.
You think the Saudi's want to embrace liberty? I doubt it - or they would have had their own Arab spring. As it is the government there avoided it by saying they were going to grant more liberty - and then (as I understand it) sat on their hands.
As for Interpol, it is my understanding that all they do is process the warrants. They only check that it's got the right signatures on it, and leave the countries to work out whether it should go through or not and that it gets to the right parts of the government. Kinda like ISPs arguing they have common carrier status.
I suspect that even after their oil has dried up, America still won't care. They would have nothing of value that the Americans want so they wouldn't challenge the Saudi's authority they either (look at the number of atrocities in Africa where there is nothing of value, and yet America does nothing).
The only way Saudi Arabia could get into trouble with America is if they started to restrict or deny the Americans oil
So you think homophobia is acceptable? You think it's acceptable to spout racism? That's right-ies for you - who still think the American Civil War is going on, where they want to enslave all the blacks and gays cos that would solve their economic woes. And hating women seems to be a favourite past time too.
Hey - this trolling is great fun! I should do it more often.

I would include a number pad on the TV remote. It would be incredibly annoying if you wanted to get to channel 50, when it starts at 01.

Whilst I agree with most of what you said, option 4 is the most difficult to prove. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Obviously, if we don't find something he's that's remotely questionable, he's guilty of fraud as he's hidden his tracks so well.

I has the same problem in Newcastle - and that *is* in England
Except the TOC with FB means they take ownership and therefore the copyright to the photo.
So you think there's no redemption?
Besides, if you post that you love the KKK, you'd probably end up running as Republican President and winning.
Until we have robots that can build robots.
And what do we do with the manual labourers then?

Really? Is that the best you got?
After all, ISPs don't just deliver movies, despite what the RIAA/MPAA/Stephen Harper say about the amount of piracy in Canada

All religion (especially it seems in America) is a political tool. Less so in more progressive places like England and Canada.

You expect religious types to be rational?

You say that like it's a bad thing.
