Tell your local truckdriver that from now on he has to build his own roads and lets see how long he stays competitive.
No way am I telling that to the hairy, smelly truckdriver. Or her husband.
Slight difference in the scenarios: we pay collectively for our roads via rego and petrol taxes*, and we pay individually to purchase cars and keep them running. Rail users' fares do not pay for the capital costs of the track and only cover 25% of the running costs.
*(My federal government introduced a special tax years ago to make our fuel as expensive as everyone else's and they promised that the tax collected would fund 100% major road infrastructure. Consolidated revenue? What's that?)
Here in my home state, the state government subsidises train travel so the commuters only pay about 25% of the actual value of a rail ticket, a subsidy that's rarely spoken of. And still the commuters whinge about the "high cost of train travel".
It's a joke that can be taken in one of two similar, yet different, ways. 1. You make beer, but you produce urine. 2. The way you originally phrased it ("All the beer I drink and produce goes into glass bottles.") conjures up an image of you drinking a full bottle at the top and filling up an empty at about waist height. If you did do that, you'd probably be working for the XXXX Brewing company. That stuff tastes horrible.
Hyperhaplo's attempted joke at your expense would have worked better in front of a group of real people, accompanied by actions. Internet sux for this stuff.
Your wife interested in photographs, eh? Know what I mean? Photographs, 'he asked him knowingly'. Nudge nudge. Snap snap. Grin grin, wink wink, say no more?
I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss what you call baby-bonics. Words are made up of simple sounds and this is what babies are trying to do. We encourage them by making those sounds back. From mastering those little things, they move on to bigger and better things.
I saw a video of something similar in which a black man ran from the back, grabbed a bag and bolted. And, yes, eyewitness accounts varied wildly. They also varied according to the colour of the witness.
White witnesses would describe the man as "black" whereas black people would be more descriptive (light black etc).
I own an iPad and think it's great, but in order to use one effectively in an environment like a large institution, it needs to be integrated. Textbooks on an iPad? Great... do they have them yet? Does the College have apps written that take the place of, say, campus info guides etc. Until things like that can be addressed, it's not really going to add anything.
It'll be interesting to see what peripherals come out for T-Bolt - like someone above said, pro video is the target market for this. Right now, a MBP can give you attachment to superfast storage OR pro monitoring OR pro capture, but not all at once. T-bolt will change all of that.
Everyone else will just buy a T-bolt to USB3 adaptor for their Western Digital external HD.
That dock was nearly as expensive as the Duo itself. If the point was for the Duo to replace a desktop, the dock needed to be $300 not $3000. And without the dock, the "Duo" was really an "Uno".
My wife (GF) had the PB Duo 210 and I had the LC III, both running System 7.1 - the bestest and most stable OS in the world.
However I maintain that it seems like just about anyone could be in breach of any AUP. If a forum's AUP forbade things like "rudeness, flaming, profanity and blasphemy" and somebody let loose one day with a stream of invective (I have heard that happens on some forums), is that really a criminal offence?

Couldn't the boss tell them apart?

Where's my mod points when I need them. Gone are the days when the industry can say "look at me" and we all collectively do.

I haven't been keeping up with the latest, but do the Smurfs have any involvement here?
Give it up. Just buy bigger pants.

The SD slot isn't broken, it is just problematic.
This parrot isn't dead, it's just pining for the fjords.

IIRC, it was a doco on the (?)Justice Project.

When the boss is away...
Haven't seen that one in ages!
I think you mean "supported" by Windows 98 :-)

Wasn't "Bacchus" Marsh the greatest wicket keep Australia has ever seen?
As far as an education goes, isn't this the equivalent of external study?
I was wondering how that went. Not so good, it seems. Movie making is a tough business they say. Oh well, onwards and upwards.
These "things" you speak of aren't criminal defamation (which would have its own remedies) or other such nasties, but a transgresion of an AUP.
Since you still appear to think jail time would be appropriate for someone breaching the AUP of a forum, that has made my day.
If you've done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fe-... hang on, I just have to answer the knock at the door...................
So you think jail time for that is OK?
Its the equivelant to spray painting swear words on the side of someones house.
Hardly. A post can be deleted and a user banned. No need to scrub and whitewash, just a few clicks.
I agree that what she did was wrong.

Ok, what is really wrong here? All I can see happening is a fuck load of trolls going to jail.
Jail for posting, say, profanity doesn't strike you as harsh?
