Differentiating the cost depending on type of education would cause only those that already have a good economic situation to actually pick the more expensive educations. Especially some educations in technology and biology may be a lot more expensive than an education in art or sociology due to the need for qualified equipment and material.
You don't really want that, especially not in some movies like Pr0n, splatter, Willie Wonka and the Chocolate factory or in newscasts from war zones.
I actually have one of the Samsung 3D TVs and I did look at it once - Men In Black 3, but the 3D revealed with ease all the CGI because it was flat while the actors were in 3D. Another disadvantage is that the glasses aren't that comfortable.
So 3D is a cool feature for special applications like Virtual Reality where you simulate an environment where people will work but it's not really anything more than a fun thing in movies - and after about 10 to 20 minutes you will get bored and mentally overloaded by the 3D effects.
We are pushed a lot of stuff that we don't want, and that's one of the reason why so many 'root' their phones these days - to get rid of the bloatware. I got severely bugged by "News Republic" and "Kid Mode", the latter once hijacked my phone and I had some serious problems before I finally got it back to normal. Now when I run a rooted phone I made sure to get rid of it.
Vendors must be aware that if you bug the users about unnecessary and uncalled for stuff then the users will start to hate you.
That's why there was a change of I/O bus from PCI to PCI-Express and USB3 with new connectors instead of USB2. (Not that the USB connectors are good connectors anyway)
Who remembers IPI (Intelligent Peripheral Interface) and ESDI (Enhanced Small Disk Interface)?
We also have seen a change of video interfaces over the years, from the digital CGA/EGA to the analog VGA to the mixed mode DVI and now to HDMI which exists in multiple versions. And with the HDCP contamination added.
The problem with the PC environment is that when using Windows the trend is to limit the ability of the machine to "approved" services by the all-mighty leader Microsoft. And if you dare to try another OS you may discover that the distro you want to use isn't possible to run because they haven't paid the UEFI tax. Possibly because that OS is obscure or old.
I bought a HTC M9 almost a year ago, but I regret it..- On/Off button on the side.
- Bloatware.
- Chewing through battery badly without being used - lose 10% in 2 to 3 hours.
Next phone will be something else - Maybe a CAT S60. Otherwise I'd fall back to the Ericsson R250s PRO that I recently installed fresh batteries in - stand by time is incredible on it.
Considering that the last election was a lose-lose situation where both candidates were dirty it was a good thing that Trump won because this means that the Democrats needs to renew themselves. Sanders would have been a better choice against Trump.
Also realize that Trump isn't very well liked by the Republicans so he may get overruled often.
And the Democrats seems to blame everything on their loss except their preferred candidate Hillary Clinton.
They are just starting with someone, almost every consumer grade supplier have security holes in their products and they just leave support for your device about a year after you bought it.
Desktop computers are dead, tower computers aren't dead.
But the improvements on CPU technology seems to have slowed to snail pace the last few years. Lack of competition combined with less pressure from the market seems to be the cause - computers seems to have reached a flat spot on the push for improved performance for many applications.
Too many people are bugged about the stormtrooper hitting his head on a partially opened door, I just see that as a normal soldier snafu. Shit like that happens all the time in real life when there's action ongoing. It just makes the movie scene a lot more real.
You have a tripping guard in the navigator scene in Dune too.

I agree here.

Tell that to Scotty.
Kids Mode taking over the UI because it likes to.
A better reason for custom roms is to be able to keep up with Android updates when the device supplier has ended the support for the device.
Just bus in a few from NY, Chicago and LA to solve the problem.
You can check out any time you want but you can't leave.
On a farm you need a few cats to keep the rodent popilation down, but it also means that a few birds are at risk.
Then the issue of birds dying - they may either be unhealthy or inexperienced. That's just part of nature.

And reference to original is more an example than specific device.

Sony Ericsson W810, works fine to make calls on but the battery starts to go sour and it starts to have signs of falling apart - but it works.
And when the li-ion battery swells up you definitely want to change it. I have suffered from that in many cases. Shitty battery technology.
He's playing in a bog.
Secure phone - here!.

I think that one of the problems were that Trump and Hillary both were too similar and nobody really wanted any of them.
Considering that the last election was a lose-lose situation where both candidates were dirty it was a good thing that Trump won because this means that the Democrats needs to renew themselves. Sanders would have been a better choice against Trump.
Also realize that Trump isn't very well liked by the Republicans so he may get overruled often.

Or the 'gaslighter' is responsible for stagnation of the company. What worked for a decade may no longer be the best approach.
And DAB+ is obsoleted by internet streaming for home use. In cars there's no need for the digital sound, FM is good enough.

If I could download a car I would.
