Their advertising claim clearly implies that sweat from working out wont be a problem. If it is going to be a problem then whats the point of advertising anything on the topic? You can engage in a semantics arguement all you want between proof and resistant but if they advertise an activity the device is supposedly friendly for then the device shouldnt have a problem in said environment.
Sorry, I don' think that is at all a crappy way to live. I come from New Yorkers and they are all fiercely devoted to their city. Meanwhile, I think anyone who advocates for policies that relegates their local service industry people to 4 families per single family home is amoral. It really upsets me that there are so many people in Silicon Valley posturing as if they were liberals but yet are content to see there working class suffer. Thinking gays are all right is the moral fluff of being a liberal. Looking out for our poorest is the meat of it.
In regards to food, I eat out enough to enjoy it although I am a very capable cook and do value my money and thus dont do it often. It's really rather nice going out to a place that makes what I don't make at home. I could never find that at a rural diner.
As for spending "forever" getting from point A to B, if you live in an area where there are 100 acre plots (as discussed above) available for sale then you're probably going to have to drive a ways to even get to a Walmart let alone a nice specialty store.
Finally, you ignored my "people" category. A higher density of people means more people like ones self in a given area. I have a large circle of friends relatively close by. I guarantee you I wouldn't have this in a rural area. That really matters a lot to me.
But hey I get it, not everyone is into this shit as me and mine are. To me it comes down to outdoors and culture, I love the outdoors but I'd rather live near culture. Outdoors is amazing though and certainly provides a feeling of freedom that cities don't
Sorry, not the case. The only thing different is that I have to look at school quality....And I still enjoy everything I listed from time to time. Especially the "people" category. I have large circle of friends that I just wouldnt have in a low density environment. How would I have the opportunity to socialize if my nearest friend was miles away. "Play date for our kids so we can hangout?" How does that even happen in a low density environment?
The lawsuit is claiming false advertising and If they can prove it then they deserve the win. We shouldn't have to research the hell out of every little purchase, we should be able to buy based on what is advertised. If an item is advertised as sweat and water resistant no one should have to doubt that claim, especially when paying a premium price.
Along with all this, holding Apple accountable for lying to consumers (if they really were) is healthy for our economy in general. If consumers have trust in the products and brands they are buying they are likely to spend more than if they do not have trust. I'm not at all the type of person to buy something when it first comes out but without these people our economy would be less healthy.
That's not for me at all. I love leaving the city to go explore the great outdoors but for me nothing beats the day to day life experiencing the art / food / night life / people of a major urban area.
But we all have our own tastes. Me, I'd trade 100 acres out in the country for a nice place in NYC in a second
No, the vast majority of the real problem is terrible city governments. Everything within 30 miles of google and apple headquarters should be 30+ stories tall. This is literally how cities like New York came to be, as land values went up so did the buildings. The problem in the valley, their city governments wont zone to let companies build large buildings so we now have rediculous housing prices, 4 families to a single family home just barely holding on, and massively poluting commutes.
"But in movies... he just seems to write fan-fiction. That's why Rey sucks as a character, she's not a Mary Sue or feminism gone awry, she's an underdeveloped character. Maybe Abrams doesn't think he has time to develop characters in film or maybe he's too awed by the franchises to take real creative decisions."
I couldnt disagree more. I enjoyed her character far more than Flin or really any new character introduced in the movie. She had some pretty alright character development in fact and I felt her character made for a compelling lead. She was most certainly the very definition of a Mary Sue though. It's well established that Jedi train for ages to develop their skills and she mind controls somebody on her first go? Pilot the millennium falcon like the best of the best even though she's spent her entire life stranded on a desert planet? The list could go on...
Sorry but as an American who lives in California within an hours drive of our own state's Richmond the first thing I think of when I hear "Richmond" is "Virginia". As for Richmond BC, if you're Canadian I certainly get it, if you're American, WTF? Whether you're an American or not you truly have a bizarre sense of geography if you really did know of all of those other Richmonds and not the one in Virginia.
Funny, the west changed awfully quickly when the car was invented and that was brand new tech. Are you suggesting that Asians are some how backwoods savages that despite the fact that they can now afford cars will resort to old ways?
What a bizarrely data free assumption. I would imagine that as half a billion people enter the middle class that having a car would become a status symbol much like it both became and still currently is in this country. What on earth would bike riding numbers have to do with that?
Of course some one can surrender one's liberties entering a commune (although sometimes said surrendering is illegal). That's a dumb comparison though. The American Left is less communist than the American Right is pro anarchist, which is to say our Left is a loooong way from communism in terms of size of government, especially when you put it in a global context.
In terms of American politics, communism is a boogeyman the Right likes to use to keep their base in line. The communist party in this country is a few thousand people strong, only the pathetically naive believe that communism is some how a modern threat.
I'll certainly say that I don't know where the parent gets off mentioning the Northwest and not the Southeast but the Northwest does in fact turn very conservative once you get off the coast.
It's an article about people exploring a possible link. The conclusion was even completely non committal on the subject, "However, when it comes to the manifold hazardous by-blows of an overheating planet, and especially those involving the ground we stand on, we must also be prepared to expect the unexpected." It's like you didn't even read the article which in my experience talking to you is right up your ally.
Of course there's two sides to a story. I've encountered many people who play the victim and paint a compelling picture of victim hood (many I think even believe their own narrative) until you find out the full picture.
Basically, I think there's likely more to your story than a casual discussion about history as your story doesn't add up.
One doesnt get rid of a righteous law because it went through a poor legislative process. If Trump really wanted to be both moral and adhere to proper governance he'd have given a long warning period so as to minimize harm to the applicable parties.
Sorry but Trump is catering to his xenophobic base on this one. Even mainstream republicans are jumping ship on the immorality of this nonsense. Hopefully they have the courage to stand up to their fringe...
The point of the joke in a modern context is to discredit the modern left, not to be funny. Really, if that's the best the poster can do at humor then they are in a sad state. I know some good dick and fart jokes that would go a lot farther than that partisan crap.
Furthermore, pointing out that those who fought an extreme were less lethal then the extreme they were fighting is hardly insightful. Ideological extremes lend themselves to violence.
See, that's a not a problem to that logic. The posters point has nothing to do with what you seem to want it to be about which seems to be conservative monetary policy issues and everything to do with just pointing out that one cant predict the future based on the past. Poking holes in the metaphor doesnt mean the point is false.
Basically, you're ignoring the point and running on an unrelated tangent.
You don't know what the word socialism means do you? Even European models of limited (but greater than ours) socialism has resulted in greater economic equality then in the US and the extreme form of socialism, communism, literally is defined by economic equality.
Read some Marx and maybe get out into the world a bit.
I was raised to chase deals by a Dad who would tell stories at the dinner table about what good deals he got on what, especially if it was what we were currently eating. He didn't buy things because they were on sale mind you, he just found the deals for the stuff he wanted and was patient enough to wait. Even then, I feel like I might shop elsewhere if only not to hurt my eyes.
The guy doing some work remodeling my kitchen found a box of mac and cheese of that brand some how buried behind the old cabinets. I was super happy that he saved it to give to me.
I keep it on display in my kitchen and get a lot of comments and questions about it.

And yet there are modern building practices that one can actively see in real life that compensate for this. You're the reason I hate AC comments.

Man, what's it like having truly poor taste?
"This shit is awesome!" "No, that's literally shit and it isn't"
I'm really honestly curios what you thought he brought to the movies. Did you find him funny or something?
I just can't imagine an angle that would interest someone over 8. He's a walking bad ethnic stereo type.

We should probably just keep blaming Obama for absurd shit, right?
"Other countries don't respect us cause Obama!" Meanwhile today we're alienating our key allies because of Trump.
