Disney doing Star Wars? Does that mean we are getting singing and dancing during it? Or is it going to be about Star Wars High School? Tinkerbell is going to make an appearance?
Seriously, Star Wars was only good for 3 movies, the rest, well, suck dog shit. The last 3? Since I'm not expecting much, I probably won't be disappointed.
having recently gotten my internet shut off without warning for going over my usage limit (after having the account for 4 years), i don't see how this is going to work.
The ISPs have given us a limit, usually about 250gb, and honestly, that isn't enough. I'm not going to share my precious bandwidth with others, considering I've already been disconnected from 1 of the 2 ISP I can subscribe to in Seattle. Yes, much like politics, I get 2 choices. Centurylink and Comcast. And now I have only 1 choice.
While I am all for sharing wifi with the world, the EFF has to wake the fuck up. I did send them info about what happen to me, but didn't hear anything (didn't expect to), but now they are trying to promote sharing wifi? I feel like that slapped me in the face.
Look, it's bad when people on TV use Siri and iMaps as a joke for a bunch of different shows. I've seen it on commericals, sitcoms, and of course stand up comedy.
Granted it's more Siri related, but the iMaps get said a bit also.
Siri i can understand not working, we are talking speech recognition, but a map program? That is seriously bad.
Would you assume that he was a shill if he ejaculated a post about the iPad instead?
Seriously? This is Ballmer we are talking about. He'd never ever admit Apple had a better product. In fact, he knows if he wants to keep his job, he needs to turn MS around. This is what a Captain is like on a sinking ship, but still trying to get business.
It's times like this I miss aspects of the Amiga computers. They had a really friendly system for expanding ram. Most cards and drives came with extra ram slots. I never understood limiting ram expansion so severely. For computer graphics I see no top end in ram needs and I used to always say if your computer has slowed down nine times out of ten it's the ram not the CPU. 500 chips sounds like a couple of hundred gig of ram if the OSs and hardware would support the expansion.
Consistency is nice, but comments are way better. I could care less if someone uses spaces or tabs between shit, as long as it has comments about what the code is doing or trying to do, I'm happy. Well, was happy, I don't really code anymore.
People are just as intelligent as they were in the past. One thing people today have over people in the past is a better change at getting an education, so they can use their intelligent for brainy stuff. People have better access to different types of food, so getting balance meals are easier. We have children to go school instead of working in factories and farms. For a lot of the world life is better then it was.
Has IQ tests been the same for the last 100 years? I mean, how can you say the average IQ was 70 if they didn't take the test? Sounds like a load of crap to me.
Please do not purchase a Wii U as something to hack. Buy standard hardware and duplicate the functionality. Open Source your solution. You don't make the world more open by buying closed systems and then hacking them open. Buy open stuff to begin with and then spend your time making those open system awesome.
Sorry, I'm buying a Wii U to hack. I plan on running homebrew and emulators before the other consoles get released. Sure, I could spend less money on a PS3, but currently (could change though) i'd have to find one with a firmware 3.60 to run homebrew. Not sure how easy that is.
Plus I'm a poor person, and I'm betting the Wii U will be cheaper then any of the new consoles that get released over the next few years.
And I'm looking forward to some Nintendo games I don't have to use the Wiimote on, since they screwed that up with quite a few of the Wii games.
Here's a thought. Lets divert some of this Military spending into Education spending. Lets get Americans retrained for what the current market place needs. Sure, I'm talking about free college. I'm also talking about improving the K-12th grade also. Big ass overhaul. Smaller classes, more teachers, kids all get books, equipment.
People that aren't currently working can have a chance to get retrained, then placed in a job. We go full bore. Not only improve our education, but improve our economy for the future.
Currently the USA is like on unemployment, getting a small check every month. Instead of spending the money on food, bills, and keeping the family safe, the head of the house (The Government) is out with his friends spending all the money on beer, bars, and drugs. He (The Government) is not taking care of the needs of his family (The U.S.A.), instead taking care of the needs of himself and his friends (corporations).
This has to stop, we need to take back control of our house. Divorce is in order.
The problem was questioning authority. I'm a bit of an expert on this. I find when I start questioning authority, mainly in a loud, commanding voice, 1 of 2 things happens. Either they cave in because they are sheep. Or they get really butthurt and need to make an example of me. Authority does not like being questioned, mainly when they are doing fucked up shit that needs to be questioned.
Did she get out of line? Probably. Emotions get flaring, it's easy to get a bit overboard. But watching the video, it seems to me there was a point, when she could of just walked away, and instead she came back to argue, bitch, or whatever. It's possible she got edged on by something being said, it's possible she didn't. But there was a point there when she could of just left, like they were letting her do, and she didn't. I'm guessing that is why she didn't win her court case, because of that action there.
If this is a bad thing, why is it that when I go to one big grocery store, they sell their own made stuff for cheaper? Then when I go to another big grocery store, they sell their own stuff for cheaper. And oddly enough, the stores don't sell their own lines in the other stores. But the big name foods have no problem selling in both stores, even though their stuff is usually sold for more money.
Maybe I'm missing something, but it doesn't seem like any anti-trust here, but normal business practice. You are free to make your own search engine and your own ad service. In fact, other people have done that. In fact, it doesn't make sense that google wouldn't push their services first, since that is what every company does to begin with.
But what is funny is there usually is NO civilians you can shoot in the various popular fps. MW, CoD, Medal of Honor. You kill other players, or NPC. Not Civilians. So to them, doing a drone strike is great, because it will complete the goal, get the objective. Now if any of those games put in civilians and you had to make sure you didn't kill any, I bet you'd get a different response on those polls.

Let's put a 48-core processor on a desktop or laptop before we talk about tablets or phones...
Lets first discovery batteries that can actually last more then a few hours...
I was brought up that magnets and displays don't go hand in hand. Of course, for most my life the displays were CRT based.
So this is pretty cool, imo.
If i buy a tablet.

Lets see how they fix it though.
Could it be that he just likes the product?
Would you assume that he was a shill if he ejaculated a post about the iPad instead?

um till you got the A3000 and it has the zip ram.
I'm poor and my i7 that i saved up all my money for has bad ram that keeps dying.
I'll take a couple chips.
thanks!
"I firmly believe that the founding fathers intended for the constitution to be "as is". Black and White"
What the hell means "a is"? It is obvious that the text is not so clear that it only admits one interpretation, so what do you really mean?
Oh, I know: "I firmly believe that the founding fathers intended for the constitution to be as Cutting_Crew reads it".
Cutting Crew? "I just died in your arms tonight?" Cutting Crew? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_Crew
They did a reading of the Constitution? Is it out in audio book form? or do they sing it, put in on Youtube and it got a DMCA notice?

Is it just me, or does everyone on the entire internet claim to have an IQ ~150? Where is the other 99.9663019177% of the population?
I never took a real IQ test, but I scored 165 on an Online IQ test.

of what our Government is going to do with our freedom over this (supposed) threat?
Why hasn't anyone kickstartered a competitor?
Kickstarting, the solution to everything.

You do realize that "Keep America American" has been a Klan motto since the aforementioned 1920s, right?
No, I haven't gone to any of those meetings to find out. So tell us, do they serve refreshments when you go to Klan meetings?
Ah the wonders of the American Education System
Oh, the system we don't put money in?
damn it, I should be in bed right now. I messed up here.
Questioning authority is good, it's a must. It's just when you do, they might want to make an example out of you, so you have to be ready for that.

“ebook reading device might be considered a tablet, as might a handheld video game device.”
I can sort of see the logic of an ebook reading device, but a handheld video game device? No.
Smart Phones are Mini tablets. They can run the same OS, same Apps. (IOS & Android). This is only shows how stupid the people in charge are.
will sue.

Don't think this will ever happen.
Yes, gamers know about war. So ask them.
