Staying at your shitty job in this country would be stupid and childish. This country (I'm assuming you mean USA) has no shortage of jobs. The only shortages are jobs in some tiny specific area you want, or jobs that you want in your locality. There isn't a town anywhere in the US that isn't hiring employees.
The problem is that you're unwilling to 'work', so you won't take those jobs that are available, instead you'll just whine and bitch about how you can't make a change in your life.
Its pretty fucked up that the guy at McDonalds without even a high school degree is more capable of getting a job and coping with the world around him, yet 'smart' people such as yourself seem to be unable to do anything other than one little thing.
Job supply isn't your problem. You are your problem.
They were Lantean's. The At means main capital (capital of the galaxy perhaps, each planet may have its own capital for localized purposes). Capital Lanteans. Technically, the city names were also prefixed by planet name. Terra Atlantu on Earth, Lantia Atlantu at the cities original home in Pegasus. (bit of a mouth for anyone but the Ancients). You have to see movie abut the Ori story arc for the full story (Ark of Truth)
... Same way all of these sorts of open projects have been bought in the past? Buy it from the project leaders. Whats so difficult to understand? Its no different than Oracle buying MySQL. Except Google isn't stupid enough to buy something that they can have for free and can't make disappear even if they do buy it.
Hahahah. You think people will pay for android? Bwahahahaha.
The people using android (both device makers and users) are too cheap to pay for a non-shitty ad ladened OS, thats why they use Android in the first place.
You're an idiot if you think anyone is going to bye Cyanogen, device maker or individual. You might as well try to sell a million dollar house to the homeless man laying on the street, you'll have better luck.
You Android fanboys live in a delusion about why Android is so prolific. Let me give you a hint, your reasons, aren't it. Its all about the cost, specifically, lack of.
In the modern world... people use RDP which is extremely lightweight, or VNC, which isn't horrible. Both are far better than streaming video. What app do you speak of that was so bandwidth intensive?
I've been to the central timezone of the US, I don't really think I'd call that the first world, perhaps you're thinking of 11pm as it is in the Eastern timezone... where civilization actually lives.
Great, so now all those people are standing around waiting on their shitty tablets to redraw the screen... taking several times longer and being less useful than if they'd just used pencil and paper to take their notes. Proven fact, you'll remember it better by writing it than typing it. I don't know anyone who can type faster than I can, yet most waitresses with any experience can jot down notes on the tab faster than I could type it.
I don't want a 7" TV remote, thats fucking stupid. The TV is a display, why the fuck do you have a display on your remote? Because you've over complicated it to the point of stupidity.
My thermostat has had a LCD display for 7 or so years already, and it'll run months on a set of double A batteries... why would I want this thing anywhere near my thermostat? So I can have shitty laggy controls because some moron took a chip intended for running a specific task, through a big fat general purpose OS on it... than limited it back to one task, for which its pretty shitty at doing since the OS interferes with everything.
These tablets are shit. They are not useful to anyone due to their crappy performance compared to the massive OS flung on them.
Just because you have some hardware that technically CAN do something, doesn't many anyone will want to use it for that purpose, nor does it mean the device is actually a good idea for that purpose.
This thing is a POS and useful for very little other than making Android look like shit, and frustrating people who buy this shitty tablet expecting something like an iPad and get something like a coleco vision
The batteries in a Leaf are a significant fraction of the price, few business want to spend $120k on batteries, when they can get them for 'free' from their workers.
The cost of the batteries is small in comparison to maintenance. Managing the batteries means hiring someone with that knowledge or paying for training/other development to get it in-house...at which point, those people would become more desirable on the job market as more buildings installed battery systems, increasing cost of retaining that talent. Then there are the business processes that need to be developed, the provisioning of a room to store them (and OSHA/building code concerns around a room full of batteries, which is no minor thing), and so on.
Or, they can just use the cars parked outside, offloading all of that effort to the owners of the cars.
When the company sanctions plugging into the companies grid, the maintenance and potential OSHA violations that go along with the cars is now their responsibility as well.
The company ends up with more responsibility, not less, because now they have to make sure your car isn't going to be any more of a risk since its powering the building... and that you've made sure to take proper care so that it doesn't explode when I walk by. And yes, LiPo's explode.
Mom is really delusional or... well, his mom is delusional.
If anyone thinks that a founder of TPB's only crime is 'some hacking', you instantly lose all credibility in any sort of rational argument. In all parts of the world I'm aware of, common sense agrees that willfully promoting criminal activity is a crime as well. Anyone arguing that willful copyright infringement was not the goal of TPB is the same kind of person who would take your wallet out of your hands while you were watching and then tell you they never took it from you. The type of liar that is so full of their own lies even they believe everything they say.
No TPB founder is 'innocent', pretending they are just makes you look like a douche.
I really wish you kids would stop discovering Mitnick and worshiping him like a hero.
Lets get some facts about Mitnick straight.
He wasn't a fucking hacker, he was a socially inept douche back who actually was capable of lying his way into accounts of people who didn't know that giving your password out to some random guy that calls you is a bad idea.
Nothing he did was even a little bit impressive. Ever. Again, let me repeat since it might not have been clear: NOTHING HE EVER DID WAS EVEN A LITTLE BIT IMPRESSIVE.
Well... except for one thing: His ego that happened to be the size of Africa. Mitnick was made an example because he is an ignorant arrogant prick who kept acting like he was a bad ass even thought the cops and lawyers were frying his ass for doing it, so they just made it as unbelievably bad on him as they could.
If you knew anything about the ACTUAL history of hacking and not what you read because some old dude told you about this guy that was 'the first hacker' as far as the american public was concerned... you'd know he wasn't the first. He wasn't any good. And people with far better talent than him also went to jail for long periods of time. The only difference is that Mitnick's ego made him talk and act like he was a bad ass...
Other guys, the ones who ACTUALLY did shit, you didn't hear about, neither before or after they got caught (for those who did get caught).
So anyway, back to my point. When you young'ens pull out the Mitnick name, its makes us old guys realize you're an ignorant cluebie who's name dropping trying to impress us with your knowledge of Internet lore... We instantly see through you and that you're a fake douche trying to pretend you're something you're not.
Mitnick was a fucking douche, learn the real history and stop treading on his name. It'll be far less embarrassing for you.
I have a genuine question. Assuming one uses Twitter from the phone, how does one prevent the Twitter app on the phone to scan the browsing history
Use an iPhone. Stop being the product.
You're worried about apps reading your browsing history because you are the product, not the customer. Stop buying products who's main selling point is the free OS someone else gave them until you realize why they gave them the free OS in the first place.
Yea, they'd totally drop support for the codec decoded in hardware, in favor of using a codec that has no hardware decode support even on their own devices... yea, that'll be a great idea.
The Mozilla foundation could perhaps negotiate a cut-rate or even free license, yes. That's doable. But then what happens when someone else decides they would like to adapt Firefox?
What people such as yourself don't get is something very simple.
You get what you pay for. If you want to take the easy way out and fork Firefox to get a web browser, thats fine. If you want a web browser with video support, well, too bad, you're going to have to pay. Thats just life.
They don't have to grant you a 'free' license, you can pay for it JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.
Your problem is that you want to be able to take all features for free and are unwilling to accept that not everyone in the world wants to make their money by selling your browsing habits. You're just like the GPL, you think the 'free' (by your definition of free) has to infect everything it touches in order for the product to have any value.
Your viewpoint is ridiculously narrow sided and selfish. Fortunately, Mozilla doesn't want to cease to exist completely, so they'll also ignore your silliness as well.
A million monkeys could also magically resurrect the atoms of a pile of cash you burned up as well, but in reality neither are actually going to happen so try again.
Yes, a random forum with random posters is as good as a trustworthy known lawyer with years of time proving she was providing facts rather than personal bias... yea, thats 'the new groklaw'...
If you block roads or entrances to buildings you will be arrested and fined. Protesting or not.
If you have a permit to protest in a particular area, you will not, but you also won't be blocking entrance to businesses or important roads, and when you do... you'll get arrested.
Have you ever looked at an actual protest anytime in your life? Do you know anything at all about them?
TARP existed because the government changed a series of laws that took perfectly legitimate banks and suddenly made them illegal because the law changed what banks had to hold in reserve (and a bunch of other shit, I'm highly over simplifying since you clearly have no idea). The result is that a law change suddenly made banks way over drawn and operating illegally.
TARP existed because the government fucked up and TARP was a shitty shot at fixing the problems they created themselves.
Had banking laws not changed the year before, TARP would not have been needed.
The banks were never in danger of going out of business or defaulting on their debts, the numbers on paper simply no longer met the requirements they had been meeting for the last 100 years.
Don't get me wrong, I'm GLAD we changed the banking laws, but you're a moron for having no clue as to what actually happened in the financial world yet still spewing on like you know it all.

If you're worried about a router and if you can trust it, you've already done it wrong.
Your data should have been encrypted before it let the original application if its something you care about.
It shouldn't MATTER if you can trust the router, if it does, you've already failed.

I work for a Fortune 500 who punishes employees for taking college classes after hours
I love these types of comments, the sense of entitlement is amazing. Explain exactly how they punish you for going to school.
