    Is there a list of banks that support this? Just so, you know, the intelligent people can move their cash OUT of these banks?

    1. Education won't give you an intelligence, it will only give you knowledge. And as Einstein said, "Intelligence is not knowledge". If you don't know who Einstein is then there's also Ron White who said "You Can't Fix Stupid", which falls into the same line of thinking.
    2. People who depends on welfare is bad for the government. It costs them money. Government needs money to do other things like maintain roads, government buildings, pay government employes, etc.
    3. You're a dumbass flamebait.

    The only fucking thing NSFW about the link is that it fucking says "What the fuck" in the title. And if you can read my fucking comment, you can go ahead and fucking click that link.

    And here's another "Fuck" just for the heck of it.

    Warning: my comment was NSFW and should not have been read.

    And that's how you differentiate the Apple Nerds from the Apple Fashion-users.

    Apple Nerds will ask for a shiny white plastic connector because it looks good, it's inexpensive and does the job properly.

    Apple Fashion-users will ask for a solid gold connector because it costs more, is more shiny than plastic and makes a "better optical connection"...

    You forgot DB9 serial, DB25 serial, DB25 Parallels and DB15 analog gameport (don't read up about how it actually works, you'll either laugh or cry).

    Forget the shiny but yes, white would be a welcomed change from all those black or beige connectors.

  17. Re:Price Drops on Why Games Cost $60 · · Score: 1

    Option 1. Drop the price and sell more games (more people buying less expensive games).
    Option 2. Keep the price the same and make less or equal profits (the same or less people buying 60$ games, budgets are getting smaller, videogames are the first luxury items to go IMHO, it's not like your old games stopped working anyway).
    Option 3. Increase the price and make less profits (less people buying more expensive games). ...

    Option 4. Sue Activision Blizzard into oblivion so that people stop playing WoW and paying monthly fees and and start paying and playing other games again.

  25. Re:Marketing... on Shuttleworth Suggests 1-Way Valve For User Experience Testing · · Score: 1

    The name itself is confusing.

    The name "Package management" might very well trigger "I don't want to manage a bunch of boxes, why is that on my computer?" questions from the user.

    Nobody calls it "packages" except on Linux. I have no idea why. It's called "Software" or "Applications" or even "Programs". Use one of those three. As for "management", replace it with something more familiar like "store" if needed, or some other word if you think that people will equal store with payment requirements. What about warehouse or something.

    "Software warehouse" vs "Package management". One sounds like a place where you can get lots of software, the other sounds like a FedEx package tracking software.
