In the real world, the whole class would take the test together, and instead of grading it, the teacher would correct any errors before submitting their work as his own.
Your knowledge of graphing calculators is somewhat dated. My $6 solar-powered Casio does numerical integration. My buddy's $150 TI does it symbolically, and quite well. If your in, say, magnetic fields, and your instructor relies heavily on poorly-thought out problems, that symbolic integration is extremely useful if you don't happen to have a complete set of integration tables memorized. (I typically just settled for *a miracle happens* followed by a numerical solution). His even does a lot of basic diff eqs stuff for him, too.
I don't know where you went to college, but I can't even imagine a situation where you'd need a calculator for a reasonable diff eqs exam. The only thing college kids use calculators for these days anyways is to do differential equations for them.
If you RTFA, you'll see the hooks are totally different. You're in the right vein, though. The unlit case looks like it uses a single strip of cut metal for the attachment hooks, a pretty simple design, and much cheaper than making hooks that aren't shorts.
My guess is the only reason they're painted black is because they were aware of this problem and thought that would fix it good and cheap. Or the paint is simple corrosion prevention and they didn't know...
The whole world is a free market. You chose to live within one regulated sub-market, but no one regulates everything. If you want a truly free market, you can always just move to Somalia or something.
Conventional weapons have come a long way. A few MOABs and some well placed SSGN/DDG/CG launched Tomahawks would eliminate the majority of the problem without resorting to a nuclear attack.
The situation you describe for designers and musicians kinda makes the "art for arts sake" argument look like blatantly exploitative capitalist propaganda.
I often find that things I purchase in stores are typically damaged or previously opened by another shopper or some such. That's assuming the store even carries what I'm looking for. Not only is the price higher, but I fully expect if I bought a book at a store here, it would be missing five random pages.
Amazon, on the other hand, usually ships things to me faster than I'd expect, and I already have free two day shipping. Often I've ordered some obscure audio plug or another late one night and had it arrive the following morning. The things I order are far and away in better condition than at a store, and always, always, always cheaper, even when I have to pay for shipping.
But then, I live in New York City, so, well, the real world here is rather sub-par. Never have I lived in a place where it is so difficult to find something simple. I'm tired of having to dig through Google for five different locally owned stores because the chain I'd normally go to doesn't operate in the city, just to find none of them have a good supply of anything anyone would ever need.

Well then, don't use links. The hooks are shown with jpegs.

Yes.

3.5? How can you sell half a tablet?
Ya, scientists, pshaw. They're so full of it!
This is why we need to institute mandatory human experimentation!
I can't be the only one who thought of this...
Ya, I'm sure the guy who wrote the headline Opera Goes To 11 never thought of the connection to Spinal Tap.
Gee, I'm glad your mastery of Google makes you so much better informed than people in the goddamned military.
Switch now. We were paying $220 for two lines and no internet. Now we pay $50, and it's only $5 for each additional line.
Oh, sorry, I have a real degree.

As your sig effectively illustrates, things change over time.
Semaphore? Try smoke signals.
turn off the idiot box all together. you might even stop sounding like an idiot.
I dunno... didn't seem to work for you...

Perhaps a narrower focus?
I was actually expecting "the," but it turns out they got "one." I guess they filtered out the articles.
I don't know about the two encyclopediae, but so far my favorite is republic vs democracy.

Funny, I have exactly the opposite experience.

Sure not everyone needs to go this way, but if none do no progress will ever be made.
Except by the proprietary folk, who make most of the progress the free stuff steals anyway.
