Some people made money in the dot com era, so what could go wrong? I want in. How can I do it? Already taking a double mortgage on the house. OK, the second one the bank did not allow, so I did it with my neighbor. He is a nice gentleman from Sicily.
Unfortunately there still are limitations that prevent me from taking a number in a different country where it would be cheaper. International rates is still a thing.
On the other positive side, I can also easily change providers and keep the same number. I think I am at provider 6 or 7 in 10-12 years or so and still have the same number. They even warn me to be sure that I do not have any credits as those will be gone. (I always use pre-paid). And if people call me it is not deducted from my minutes.
Few years back there where a lot of people in a club I went to walking around with Ferrari keys or other expensive cars. Yes, they actually had them. When one asked where my keys where I explained that I came with a driver and not drove myself, so I could drink a lot and not risk anything. They where impressed. Nobody asked what kind of car I came in. It was a public transport bus.
I learned early on that it is pretty easy to impress people who try to impress people. I personally do not care for such things, although I could probably afford it financially.
Reminds me of the Friends episode where Chandler says about the death of Bambi's mom "So I should feel sad because the artists stopped drawing?"
There are plenty of examples where people feel empathy for innate objects (Insert joke about ex here). It could be that you are such a buzzkill that says "He is just acting, it is not real at all." with any movie and never read any book, because "how can you feel anything about some letters and punctuation.
So here is some information for you: regardless if it is an actor, a stuntman, a robot or CGI: it is not real.
Depending on how this is used, it could be bad (Michael Bay bad) or good (LotR good). It could mean that live actors can better interact with what is happening, while no restrictions that wires for a stuntman bring apply.
This being Disney it will be used both for good AND evil at the same time.
eresting list. Especially when I see that Belgium has "low levels of participation in politics" even though there is a law that you MUST vote, not that you CAN vote. So all people who ellegible to vote will vote (unless they are able to get out of it. e.g. be on a holiday or work on that Sunday). The huge majority of adults is ellegible to vote. Exceptions will be declared by a court order.
To be correct: you are not obliged to vote, you are obliged to show up. If you vote or not is not known if the ballot is in paper and you can vote 'no vote' if it is electronic. Voting is as anonymous as the computers allow it to be.)
That is not true in e.g. Belgium. If the person dies, all assets and debts will go into the heritage. Often this is the spouse and kids. They will have to pay the debt. If the debt is larger than the assets, they can decline the inheritage. You can inly decline or accept the whole, not part of it. As this was in the UK I would expect it to be similar.
What I do nott understand is why they asked for the woll, as that, by itself, is meaningless. A will is a wish of how you want it devided and if that is legal depends on the law. I could e.g say my kids get nothing, but that does not make it possoble, because of the law.
Where I work, we ask for the final inheritance and then send those the bill. Bit more comolicated thsn that, but that is the gest of it.
5years updaes for a car? That would mean that after 5 years it will become cheaper to buy a new one. What should happen is that when they decide to stop giving free updates, the code must be available for free. If possible even 1 year before they stop giving free upgrades.
Just download one of the many rippers available. For Linux there is youtube-dl And here is the code you can use: youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format mp3
Most ripping sites where just a shell arround youtube-dl anyway and as such limited the program to just a few options.
As you now have the source, you will be able to build your own website that does the same. With little ingenuity, you can have a bookmark in your browser and when you click it when you are on YouTube, it will start downloading to the directory of your choice.
Editing of MP3 can then be done with any MP3 editing program you desire,
I do notthink nobody will own a car. I also do not think everybody will own a car. It will depend on pricing and milage you do. And that if people only think aboutcost and think rationally. Plenty of people reason themselves into buying a much bigger car or house or phone than what they need.
The problem with firering people is that the company seldom have the opportinity to defend their side.
This could well be one of the many things why the person is fired. I have fire people for various reasons. The majority after several warnings. Bith verbal and written. The only way to fire somebody on the spot (different than firering and asking them not to come back) is if there is a serious reason, meaning somethin illegal, like theft, fraude or serious neglect on following procedures. Even then it will depend on the procedure. Posting something stupid on Twitter will probably not be enough after a first time.The reason why somebody is fired is almost never explained to even the cow orkers, let alone to the public.
This because we are not allowed to do so. Also because it would be terrible to do it.
I have had an emplyee doing extremely bad in what they where supposed to do. The person was very much liked as a person. Still: not good at their job and a LOT of errors, both in the job and following procedures that are there for legal reasons. (Think privacy and security) That person was let go and a lot of people where upset about it. We still were not able to say why we had fired the person without the consent of said person and that person went with "They fired me because of my " At one moment somebody of a Union demanded a talk with HR, so we explained that representative of the Union (Not a guild, like in the US, hence "a" not "the" union ) and that person said "Should have been fired sooner". Obviously that person from the Union is ALSO not allowed to tell this to the rest. So it ended with "We have looked into ity and agree with the decision".
Now imagine that this person would have went to twitter instead of just complaining and giving incomplete information about the situation. How should we handle it and still be legal, meaning not being able to discuss the matter in public.
Obviously these are exeptions, as most of the time cow orkers are well aware of why the people get fired. Because they SEE that they where not doing their job and they need to do it for them.
On the plus side, we have pretty good emplyee laws, so people know that mostly people will not be fired just because. They would even be able to join a union the day they got fired. I do not even know if the person was unionized or not, because nobody cares.
And for all we know, what you have sugested already was done. She most likely will not tell that and the company can't.
Where I work we deal with a LOT of people who are u able to pay their iphone. To me owning an iPhone is less about being wealthy and more about being an idiot that does not know how to handle money.
Sure., the poor will not be able to open the credit, but there are plenty of people who should not open a credit (not even at 0%) for a phone. Especially if you know that no phone that is sold in Belgium is locked, so you can buy any (second hand) phone you desire and do with it as you please.
I once spoke with an artists about some modern painting he made. I asked him what it was. He told me that it did not matter what he thought it was. What was important was what _I_ thought it was.
I hear the same with songwriters. Even if the words are pretty clear, the meaning it can have for each person will be different. I could be the song you fist heard with the love of your life. Or reminds you of a great time with friends.
As movies are art, this goes for many movies as well. If I see or feel anything the makers of the movies did not intend, does not make my feelings and ideas about the movie false, just different.
I am sure Kubrick thought along those lines and that is why he (almost) never spoke what the meaning was. Here he just explains what it was meaning to him. So if you do not agree with him, that is ok. It would have made him happy. Otherwise he would have give the answer many, many, many times before.
Not far enough. If you do three and they are all successfully appealed, they are not allowed to do any more for 75 years after the last CxO in the company is dead. That might entice the shareholders to kill them. Win-win for all.
China will get into the phone market in the US. They stopped HUWEI and learned. So now they do it with the next company and learn. They have plenty of companies and plenty of people that at some point it will work.
But I really like it that they called the US bluff.
USA : "We do not buy if you do not change the leaders." Chine: "We can then sell in the USofA?" USA: (giigleling as they do not think it will come to this) "Sure!" China: "Done. Now what." USA: "Er, you now promise to not put anything spy-stuff in it?" Chine: "You never requested that. Too late to back out of the deal." USA: "Uh USA! USA! USA!"

You can increase the tonnage if you drive an RV.
The fact that you can does not make it legal.

Yeds, and the EU also told them what to do with their browser monopoly.
You canb take action now. You are on /. so you have some Internet knowledge.

Persons are smart, people are idiots.
That is clear, but is he talking about 2001 or any of the Star Wars movies?
The book was written while the movie was made. So one is not an adaptation of the other.
