I would if I actually cared about the subject. To me, some people are straight, some people are gay, some like it all and some like none. Just the way it is and I am not the person to tell someone else who they can and can't be attracted to.
Perhaps EA could do something nice (yeah right) and talk to the US government to perhaps get an exception to return money to these accounts, perhaps under orders that no single account can get more than X dollars back.
I was about to say the same thing, but then I realized what he did. He said BE pregnant rather than GET pregnant. So: Get pregnant in April, you're still pregnant in January and give birth. You immediately go have sex and get pregnant again, maybe in February, and then give birth again in November. Then you hurry again and get pregnant before December is over.
Healthy? Hell no. Good math? Definitely not. But it's not wrong per se.
Here's a thought. What if, instead of an outright gay gene, being gay is caused by an unintended genetic mutation that is not directly inheritable but just happens? Consider allergies. Dad may not have allergy, mom may not have allergy, but little Tommy just decides one day that eating strawberries will kill him. Is that how choice works?
The question is: Even though the weaponized code was created deliberately, is it any different than mixing a few chemicals in your backyard just to SEE them blow up, with no intent of ever bombing the local police station? Is it that hard to believe that he wrote the code to say "Hey, I could do that" and then just stashed it somewhere?
So the solution to the syncing problem is to put your phone down five inches from your laptop, upload to your Cloud account (on a capped internet connection), then download it on the other device (on the same capped internet device) instead of creating a physical connection between the two? Or hell, just a local wireless connection if we're only talking about syncing and not even getting into questions about charging?
This. THIS is what causes all that bandwidth saturation the ISPs are so afraid of!
Having all information lately pushed in the form of images and videos doesn't help - I still haven't found a reliable means of searching for that one video where someone said...
I remember the internet back in the late 90s, when everyone had their own little corner of the net to publish the things they wanted to share with the world, and it was all in text. There was a lot of crap, sure, but you could find the stuff you wanted to. Now I get the feeling that looking up news from just last month is an exercise in futility as it gets buried in pointless results; that is, if there even is something to search for and it wasn't just a picture meme that will be forever lost.
Or the company gets hacked and a malicious update gets pushed out to turn all the connected devices into a botnet. And those that don't get updated? They're kill-switched to force people to update at their earliest convenience.
But if they manage to tweak the model so it fits the data set of 1980, 1981, 1982 etc. all the way up to now, isn't that essentially the same as starting today and predicting 2017, then tweaking the model a bit and using that to predict 2018, then tweaking it a bit because you missed something and so on?
No, what they mean is they test it by feeding it the data from 1995, then comparing its predictions to what the weather was actually like in 1996. They are doing exactly what you say is the only way to test the validity of the data - they just started collecting data long ago.
THAT SAID, 62% correct doesn't seem all that awesome unless they use very tight margins. Does the computer say it'll be -10C and then count it as a fail if it's actually -11C? -15C? Does it say 'Good enough' if it says "Rain and 5C" and instead we get "Snow and -2C"?
I'm a little curious, how does the fourth amendment work together with Stop And Frisk practices?
Is it feasible that the police could get a warrant to search a building, and then claim that anyone found in the building is 'suspicious' and they checked them out 'just in case'?

If you see someone named Kayesha, do you assume she's a blonde?

You say most. Let's assume for this particular exercise it's one of the apparently few privately owned ones.
What if they were transported along a toll road at some point?
"But ms. Teacher, my bluetooth keyboard doesn't work! How do I write the search string?"
So which one is better for the school's needs: Win 7, Win 8, Win 8.1 or Win 10? You get ONE CHANCE because of the cost of trying any of them.
What about a big alienware, then?
Best bet? Like everything else, the program he used to write tiny pranking programs saves everything to My Documents.
So pranks should now be punished by having, quote, your ass fried? Overkill mcuh?

Whoa, slow down.

Sad but true.

Actually it was coming back to the stark white background of Slashdot that hurt my eyes the most.
I wanted to see it over there for the flame war certain to follow. Thank you for providing. :-)

I just really want to see this comment over in the thread about smart guns.
Why not both?
Why is it so hard to grasp the concept that both a problem and a solution can be more than ONE THING?
I really hope flying cars come with telemetry but maybe that's just me.
