"People who are really, really neat, between what it takes to be really neat at the office and at home, typically will spend anywhere from an hour to four hours a day just organizing and neatening," he said.
Why not automate your neatness instead? I am a very messy person, which is actually one reason I like my mac. iTunes automatically organizes my music collection in a very accessible manner, with a few rules applied to mail I can quickly organize all my email messages, with expose I can find the window I need with the touch of a button(since I tend to leave too many open), and with spotlight I can quickly find the version of my resume I want to use with just a few terms. I am much more productive because I can be neat without having to slave over it. Time saving and neatness aren't mutually exclusive.
No, up until the Civil War taxes for the(previously small) national government were mostly collected from the states. The Civil War put a huge burden on the federal government(and caused it to become much larger) and out of that income taxes were born. It took an amendment to the constitution(16th amendment) many years later while William Howard Taft was president for income taxes to be officially codified in the Constitution
Actually, no, this article drives home the point that from Apple's point of view, they SHOULDNT release Osx86. They are making more per box then Dell. If they came out with OSX86, most of the people that would buy it would probably be people that would buy Apple hardware anyway. I'm sure there are a small percentage of people that refuse to buy Apple hardware, but the losses in profits in other areas would dwarf this small gain. So really they would be losing a ton of money for a small increase in market share. They went through this before with the clones. I hate to break it to you, but Apple exists to make a profit. They do that by making things people want to buy at prices that people are willing to pay. I'm sure they have thought about doing so, and came to the conclusion that it would be folly. Apple isn't exactly bleeding cash if you noticed....
I have, largely for environmental reasons, but there are other reasons to. I still like meat dishes, so I think that Boca Burger/Morningstar/Gardenburger kick ass! Morningstar crumblers(ground beef substitute) tacos are actually quite tasty. Just take the crumblers, warm them up, put the same seasoning that you would put on beef/chicken tacos(ie that powerder stuff you can get for 50 cents a bag) and make the rest of the taco the same. I have been eating these at least once a week for months.
they just shouldn't GRADE homework, well IMO anyway. One of my favorite profs in college always assigned us homework but never collected it. Why? His philosophy was that he would know if you were actually doing your homework by how you did on the test. He would assign problems then publish the solutions on the web. And when you went to his office hours you could ask him ANY question you wanted to about the homework. Other profs who grade homework would always dance around certain questions because they didn't want to "give away the answer". What BS! I learn as much, if not more, from trying problems and being able to see my mistakes then by making sure I need to do everything perfectly all the time. Profs would usually post answers to the homeworks, but unless I made copies of what I did, I wouldn't get the homework I handed in back until weeks afterwards. By then many of the lessons have already been forgotten.
Isn't grading by both testing AND homework implying that people cheat on homework? If you believe that everyone is honestly do their homework, then the homework should show whether or not they trully understand(not MEMORIZE per se) the material. Or if you have tests then don't collect homework because the students will have to prove their mettle on the test anyway. I think it would be great if classes had either only test or only homework/discussion grades. Each would work better in certain situations, but the whole idea of having to be perfect all the time without being able to consult reference materials or collaborate with others against the spirit of education. Also, it doesn't represent the "real world" at all. I know bridge makers aren't allowed to make mistakes, but all bridge designs have to be signed off by several people and they are allowed to collaborate with co-workers and several people have to inspect the design and put their own reputation and even wallets on the line when they sign off on the design. This isn't allowed on tests or even homework theoretically. So why grade it?
Yes, but it was always fun to use that to get your queen into the red ants base after you have covered up all the exits with rocks. The queen loses its head then just runs frantically. Good times!
putting a generator on a bicycle that is capable of say charging a cell phone or a laptop battery. Perfect for people such as myself who commute by bicycle anyway. Would that be feasible? How much do you think it would cost to retrofit a bike to do that?
Not necessarily. Safari doesn't render the flash, the Macromedia flash player does. Have you tried the same experiment in Firefox? Or perhaps Opera? You might get the same result. (In which case Apple should start nagging Adobe to fix their app...)
Not only integers, more than likely only POSITIVE integers. If you are using 2's complement that would mean that the first bit in all negative numbers would be a 1. Unless I missed something, this algorithm does not take that into account and would sort them as being larger than all positive numbers.
Fuck y ou, I'm not off topic, the whole fucking world is offtopic, god I am so alone. I like burning, karma, come with me, use this trhead to b urn as much karma as you can@!
I helped this girl move after her ex husband left her, spent my saturday lifting heavy shit, tons of shit, and I didn't even get a blowjob! Not even a kiss! God damnit, women love fucking doormats, but they only have sex with assholes. They want the doormat men to do their bidding, then they fuck an ass who would never dream of giving up their free time to help the woman move, and then wonder why the asses treat them so poorly. Or maybe I'm just drunk and misogynistic. Thank you OS X for teaching me how to spell.
No, you are projecting your preferences as absolutes. Do you go into a nice Italian restaurant and then claim that they are the worst restaurant ever because they don't have dim sum? My guess is you don't, because if you want dim sum then go to a Chinese place. It's the same here. Apple doesn't make something you want, thats fine. However, since neither you, me, or any other individual are not the end all be all judges of quality, the fact that you don't like Apple products really doesn't say ANYTHING about Apples products other than they don't appeal to you. If you think any differently then you really need to wake up and realize that not everyone has the same set of priorities as you do.
Have you ever been out to the rural parts of your country? Here in Bavaria(which was a part of West Germany) broadband is FAR from universal. Ditto for cell phone signal. Some towns just don't have it, and someone at Deutsche Telekom told me that they pretty much never will. The "fact" that broadband and cellphone coverage is "universal" in western Europe is nothing but a myth. Europeans just refuse to admit their system isn't perfect either. Probably just because they like feeling sanctimonious, but thats just my opinion.Also, in all the time I lived in the US I NEVER had a problem with sending SMS messages. I don't know what carrier you were using, but obviously you didn't do your research.
And if you want to talk about negligence killing people, how about the heat wave that hit France in 2003? Many of those deaths were preventable, but French labor law prevented physicians from working longer hours. So going too far in the opposite direction kills people too.
I might miss out on all these job offers I am getting from all over the world. All I have to do is cash checks and I get 10% of the profits, and I only had to give them my contact info, SSN, account numbers and passwords. What suckers!

they could get a woman to model the thing instead of some scary looking goth dude....
alright, you convinced me, I'm tagging this "holyunclosedtagsbatman"
Most of them will probably just make a character from their genitals.....
Um, they did have a this thing called a demo.....if doom 3 sucked that bad people wouldn't need to pirate it to realize how bad a game it was.

I wonder if things like potato chips would be allowed up there or if the crumbs would get into all the gaps and ruin the instruments?
Well, they are allowed only if you have an inanimate carbon rod to save you.
