Not sure the cause but I was in Dallas waiting for my flight and they announced a gate change because they could not log in to certain computers. Apparently the ones two gates down worked.
Along those lines, GM plants were notoriously inflexible for their production. The plants were designed for very specific purpose. Honda, on the other hand, designed plants that could easily switch between models to quickly change the model mix based on sales.
The result is GM often has mass layoffs when certain model sales underperform while Honda goes through short periods where they might struggle but can quickly adapt without the need to layoff thousands of workers or shut down obsolete facilities.
Most likely the new GM plant in Mexico will produce small cars that will be for all of the Americas, not just US.
I don't think protectionism is a good way to explain Japan. Japanese do prefer to purchase from Japanese companies, I will admit to that, however plenty of their products are built with components sourced from all over Asia.
The unemployment rate is so low because a majority of women leave the work force once they get married or have their first child. Very similar to how the US was prior to the 1970's.
It is funny, I am in Mexico right now providing some support to our new automotive manufacturing facility. Unlike Ford, our facility wasn't built to replace jobs in the US, it was built to produce vehicles that are more in line with Latin American needs while also exporting these models to the US.
I have been asked by at least 20 people today what I think about Trump. I said much the same thing, if he follows through with his threats of tariffs, he's going to wreck the US industry.
I also told them that I hope Trump just made those comments to get certain voting blocks to vote for him. Once he locked up that segment of the population that have no sense of economics, he could focus on reeling in other groups.
Despite being "Republican" I suspect behind most closed doors all those Republican congresscritters are going to be telling him to back off the talk.
Or that Clinton isn't nearly as thin skinned as Trump.
Before I get accused of being a Hillary supporter, I'm not.. from what I've read so far in this thread anyone that doesn't like Trump is accused of being on Hillary's payroll...
Look at Trump's behavior patterns. The minute someone says something negative, he starts mud slinging. The guy cannot shrug anything off. Sometimes I see parallels between his behavior and that of my 3 year old. I even joke with my wife that we're raising a mini-Trump.. just that he doesn't have a lot of money to start with.
What I'm hoping for is Hillary gets elected then removed from office and let Kaine finish the term. She's about the only person that can make Trump look like a good idea.
The headline said "America"... I can interpret that as companies based in America, of which we have many.
I think NASA is doing well, right now, doing missions of exploration using probes. Let them blaze the path and gather much needed information and let private enterprise get people out there.
It's funny, I was able to "out" a couple Chinese "paid per post" accounts on CNN a few years ago using similar methods. Their English was quite good except they made the same grammatical errors as my wife, who is Japanese. There are certain nuances with American English especially that foreigners can never pick up.
I don't think that's really fair. They've already admitted there is a problem and are recalling the devices. In the mean time they have provides users a method to "safely" use their phone.
Is there a bit of PR behind this? Yeah. But at the same time I think this is a statement to those thinking of trying to get a settlement, "we can easily determine if you're lying".
Are there going to be enough people out there with 4k systems to take advantage? I just installed a projector in my basement on a 135" screen, at 1080p I think it looks pretty darn good even on such a large screen. I'm sure 4k would look amazing but I'm not going to spend that much on a 1st generation 4k projector. I'm not sure there'd be a significant difference upgrading our 50" 1080p tv to 4k.
This might be a big deal in 5 or 6 years when very large 4k displays are more common.. just don't think the general public is ready to give a shit about this yet.
By no means am I a sympathizer with AT&T or Comcast but is it really a bad idea to get their input? In my opinion, she was doing her job by looking for options before coming to a final conclusion.
It's easy to bash the incumbents but let's not just hand the keys to the city over to Google just yet.
My only issue with Steam client is that is there is any other application actively using the internet, Steam takes about 1 minute to load and normally cannot connect on the 1st try. Once it's open I have no problems, just seems like it tries to monopolize network/cpu during startup.
What percentage of the black population in the US do you feel are millionaire rappers?
You're right, it's a poverty issue but that hits minorities much harder. The problem continues to get worse because we cannot address the disparity in schooling for wealthy districts vs poor districts.
And I don't have an answer, so I'm not trying to play this off as if it's an easy fix. My personal experience with being a mentor shows me the lack of emphasis poor families typically put on education, the parents pass along their negative attitudes to their kids.
If I read and understood everything correctly, it does not throw out these other reviews it simply does not count those towards the average score given to a game. So you can go in and review the game for others to read, it just won't get totaled with the others.
Looking at the big picture, how often do you think legit, 3rd party review sources would dramatically influence an average score anyway? If the average Steam user thinks a game is great, chances are the average person that gets their key from some other source will have similar thoughts.
There's no way Tesla will meet their cost targets unless they want to take a loss. First, their manufacturing facility is thousands of miles from existing manufacturing base. Suppliers may be able to produce the parts rather cheaply but transportation costs will inflate the price. Second, they want their suppliers to build new, Tesla only facilities close to the mass production plant. Suppliers are not going to eat that cost for the privilege of doing business with Tesla, which even at their exaggerated sales expectations will still only be the 4th or 5th larges automaker in the US. That means overhead costs will be through the roof initially, driving up part costs.
I fully expect them to eventually hit their target, in 5+ years.
Last time I bought a computer, I got it without an OS installed. *gasp*
I paid money to the company that provided me exactly what I wanted. *gasp*
It's not a difficult concept to understand. Don't like what Sony is offering, don't give them your money. Giving Sony money when you're not satisfied with your purchase only encourages them.
I'm tired of the trend of whiney consumerism. If you don't want an OS, don't buy the fucking computer that has it pre-installed. It's not like it was advertised as just the hardware and he was surprised when Windows booted up.
Find me a spot in the sea of China that is international recognized Chinese territory and is 3000 meter deep. They can build their lab there.
What they will try to do is drop it in international waters, claim the lab is over 1000 years old and proof that the entire sea has always been Chinese territory.

At the price Apple charges for their MBP, it should include 1 of each dongle for free.

Looks like they bought up as many domains as they could think of to avoid people voicing their negative opinions. If Trump becomes President, will he look to create LÃse majesté like laws?
He's an incredibly rich child.
What I'm hoping for is Hillary gets elected then removed from office and let Kaine finish the term. She's about the only person that can make Trump look like a good idea.
So that they would know where our bags were instead of making us wait 3 full days in Japan without them.
I have only seen that for diesel. Truck tanks large enough to reward for cash purchases.

I didn't rtfa but why does it have to be NASA? Seems we have a few private companies that are working towards that goal independent of NASA.

I'm not arguing it's a perfect system, just trying to put into perspective how rare this new system could negatively impact an otherwise good title.

too bad you can give a +1 Troll modifier, that's some quality trolling.
It's a joke. However it's unfortunately "legal" with super-PACs.
If we haven't crossed the event horizon yet, we'll be there in the next decade. No turning back.
