Considering Pope Francis will never allow women priests or stop using the stupid, "Love the sinner, hate the sin" when referring to gays, the AC is correct.
Further, we know for a fact the Catholic Church has been covering up pedophiles within its ranks. While Francis might be making an effort to combat this, that doesn't change the fact of what has been happening (and is most likely continuing to occur).
Actually, it is the same since (some) cars, such as Tesla, can be remotely updated. They don't have to go to a shop to get their software changed.
While in BSG they installed a patch to the mainframe first, there is nothing to say a similar process couldn't be done or found to compromise vehicles which allow this operation.
Instead he is more interested in seeing government run broadband.
Considering how poorly private companies are doing in the broadband area, why not let the government take a swing at it? It can't get any worse.
Besides, as we've seen in those cities which have implemented broadband service through utilities (government regulated) or by themselves, the service is better and the price is lower. How is that a bad thing?
Had Republican Mitt Romney not implemented socialized medicine in his state, there wouldn't have been the impetus to force it on the rest of us.
However, since Mitt felt it was perfectly acceptable to force people to hand over their money to private companies, one can't complain when the President does the same thing to everyone else.
just because you uncheck all of the crapware in the installer that it won't just go ahead and install it anyway,
Exactly. Look what happens when you install Apple Quicktime. You explicitly uncheck the box to not do auto updates, but when you're done, the auto updater is installed. Same goes for iTunes.
This is why I kept telling people to delete emails. Don't save everything, get rid of it. Set Outlook to auto delete on exit and don't give people the option to delete.
But no, they whine and whine that they need to keep stuff even though they haven't looked at it in five years and the project it referred to is gone.
The insurance companies will only pay out to repair it, other engineers say that's impossible.
If the stadium owners thought insurance was the way to go, they were highly mistaken and this proves the point.
Insurance is the biggest scam out there. It doesn't matter what the insurance policy says, insurance companies will do everything in their power not to pay out anything or at best, a token amount.
Witness what happened when Katrina (a hurricane for those not in the know) hit Louisiana. The insurance companies tried to claim storm surge damage wasn't covered even though the houses were damaged by winds.
Even worse, the people relied on their insurance agent who told them they didn't need flood insurance. Further, they lost their case.
Pick any insurance you want and the same applies. You pay and pay and pay, then when you need coverage, you pay some more before the insurance companies hand over a pittance.
Hopefully the stadium owner goes after the insurance company and forces them to do what they were paid to do. If not, get your money back for breach of contract.
they're continuing their newly established tradition of hiding things from users.
Windows 7 started the trend of burying what used to be easily accessible options. What used to take 2 or 3 steps to accomplish was now, in most cases, doubled, not to mention neutering the Start menu.
Then came Windows 8/8.1 where you couldn't find anything in general, including Control Panel, because everything was a tile with some random combination of characters for a description.
Windows 10 appears to be continuing down this path though they did graciously open the desktop back to the user but still restrict what you can see in the Start menu.
Now they've gone and gotten rid of pre-notification of what the patches they're offering are all about.
At this rate, in a few years there will be nothing but a black hole from which is emitted a particle of Hawking radiation, leaving the user completely in the dark until the moment it arrives.
You should understand at some point you will be sick, at that point in your life you won't care about anything else other than getting better or dieing.
If I'm sick I'll pay for it out of my own pocket.
If I'm dying, I won't need to shell out money.
The amount of money one pours down the black hole of insurance could easily pay for all but the most serious medical condition. When the money isn't being wasted, it could be used for other things such as food, housing, clothing or education.
Instead, and as I stated above, it's poured down a black hole, never to be seen again.
Not to mention there are those bakeries and photographers who refuse to cater to gay people who want toget married.
While the courts have ruled against the above practices, the owners can simply be more selective in who their clients are, thus getting around the issue. This is the same thing businesses do when interviewing. They see someone's great resume but when they come in they realize the person is over 40 and disqualify them.
The reason they can give is simply, "We found someone more aligned with our requirements" even though they are discriminating by age.
And by well rounded, I don't mean around the waist because we're sitting on our fat asses in our mother's basement rather than going outside once in a while.
should be executed in the streets while on their knees begging for their life.
That is what the Crusaders did every time they took a town/city. They executed people with their swords. Those who fought, the women, the children, the elderly.
Compare that to Saladin who showed mercy and the let the Crusaders go (for the most part).
Sane people don't care about such ridiculous restrictions.
Tell that to the guy who fought a parking ticket because the sign used the term "12 PM". He went before the judge, explained there is no such thing as 12 PM, only 12 noon, and won his case.
Considering the anal-retentiveness of a large portion of people on here, one would think this wouldn't even be an issue. It's quite clear, AM is anti meridiem and PM is post meridiem. What time is 12 PM since it is neither post nor anti?

Try RetroShooter from Arcade Pod. The music alone is worth it.
It's stupid because people like you think being gay is a choice.
That's like saying be tolerant of blacks or Asians because they chose to be that way.

You are correct (you can zoom in). Directly below that bank of switches it says "Engine Water Injection".
As a follow up, see this article which mentions cars talking to one another. That's another term for networking.
Imagine someone able to hack this type of system and the chaos they could cause.
Again, analog is better than digital.
Actually, it is the same since (some) cars, such as Tesla, can be remotely updated. They don't have to go to a shop to get their software changed.
While in BSG they installed a patch to the mainframe first, there is nothing to say a similar process couldn't be done or found to compromise vehicles which allow this operation.
The Cylons were able to defeat the new, shiny, electronically controlled Vipers while the older Mark II Vipers were impervious to cyber attacks.
Once again, analog is better than digital.

Delete, delete, delete.
Why anyone would pay for something they can get for free I will never understand.
Hopefully all those morons who are ""rollin coal" will be sterile so they can't pass on their defective genes to another generation.
Not according to people who responded to my previous comment in response to the question, who watches sports?
To them, there is no need to be exposed to the outside world. Anything not tech related is worthless is their mantra.

something that will train for a marketable skill.
Such as President of the United States?
and hire some professional developers and designers.
Such as the professionals who redid the NBC and CNN web sites?

I was only responding to your questions by giving examples where this is already happening. I am in agreement with you.
So it's okay to put up a sign in a bar that says "no blacks or hispanics?"
There is the gun range which has a sign saying, "Muslim Free Zone" and so far they're able to get away with it.
or for a pharmacist to refuse to fill a prescription because the person is a Muslim?
No, but we do have pharmacists refusing to fill prescriptions for birth control because it might offend their religion.

Those who like to be well-rounded individuals.
