Here are the names of the diff scripts that are included in TortoiseSVN, for non-plaintext files. I had actually never tried it until just now and it works rather nicely, at least with Word docs. It doesn't look like you can merge Excel files, which might be a requirement.
I think it would be manageable if you simply didn't store your entire library on it. If you only have 10 books on it, a person could easily remember which click of the wheel corresponded to which book.
My experience, however, is with the Kindle 1, so I'm not sure if that little joystick thing on the Kindle2 has the same tactile response.
Don't get me wrong, I'm certainly not judging the working people, I simply understand the fact that there will be different wages given to a doctor versus a Walmart greeter.
If you are an employer, you owe your employee a living. If you can't afford it, don't be an employer.
First off, you do not owe them anything; they do not owe you anything. You entered into an agreement selling a service for money or vice-versa. There is certainly something good to be said about the magnanimous employer who recognizes and assists with employee plights and that employer will undoubtedly be rewarded with higher productivity, but it is hardly owed.
It doesn't work the other way, either. Do the employees of a grocery store owe the employer anything because he saved his money 2 decades and then risked it all buying a first store? Should they work uncompensated all night long and around unmaintained and dangerous equipment because they owe it to him? Of course not, thanks be given to government agencies and regulations (and historically trade unions), these actions are even illegal.
You and I were lucky enough to have good parents, but it's a matter of luck only.
Correct on the first point, but I have to disagree on the second. I would say that to be true most places in the world, but not here. Here it is two things, a combination of luck and hard work, not by you but by your parents. Success(n) = Success(n-1) + Luck + HardWork - Stupidity
I was raised by a single parent who was unlucky, as you put it (his parents were unlucky, as I see it;). He grew up dirt poor and worked his ass off to provide a better future to his offspring. With some good luck he was able to stay healthy and make a living, with some bad luck he wound up single, with a lot of hard work he was still able to provide food. You know what? I'm going to work my ass off (and hopefully have more good luck) to provide an even better future for my children.
Giving everybody higher wages will do nothing to get rid of douchebag parents nor will it heal the handicapped. I also argue we already do pay higher wages to the handicapped through tax paid subsidies. You could pay a douchebag parent $60,000 a year to stock shelves and they could still turn around and spend it all on hookers and blow. The child starts in the ghetto, through some failing of their parents' Success(n) formula and that is indeed unfortunate. Hopefully through the parents future hard work and good luck, gov't agencies and laws, as well as non-profit groups (Big Brothers/Sisters, evil religions, etc.) the child will still be able to be successful.
Anybody can be a socialist, but you need capital to be a capitalist.
No, you obviously need socials to be a socialist. Really, what you said sounds like a bumper sticker or something, but nonetheless every able bodied person has potential capital and potential for success. Just look back at the recursive success formula.
And it's the capitalists (RIAA, TSA, DEA)
Okay the RIAA I can understand, as it purely protects property rights, but the TSA and the DEA? I guess you could argue the TSA protects property, but I would say the larger role is to protect the passengers. If terrorists were only doing something that damaged the airplane and not the passengers do you really think we would have this level of security. If the only thing they did was spraypaint "Muhammad wuz here" on the side of an airplane I doubt we would have to take off our shoes at the airport. And the DEA? Really?! I guess you could argue since they get their authority from the tax codes, but if anything it is one giant social experiment. I bet you don't believe the Prohibitionists were Progressives, either, then.
You've been brainwashed by the rich (but your username suggests that anyway, stop watching that abysmal, sorry excuse for news)
Just curious, but did you ever think that you weren't being just randomly searched. Maybe they identified a pattern that your itinerary matched. For instance, were there any one-way legs anywhere in your itinerary, connecting flights out of another airport, or anything else that deviates from normal business/tourist traffic. I've heard they even take rental car plans into consideration, but I do not know the veracity of those claims.
It's sickening that a family man who works a forty hour week at minimum wage is eligible for food stamps.
Maybe he shouldn't have had children at 16. There is a reason it is called the minimum wage; it is the lowest wage you can legally get paid. When would it not be sickening in your eyes to receive food stamps? I guess, only when you are unemployed. Those 2% above the age of 25 who are still making minimum wage are unfortunate and lucky for them if they have kids, they have a safety net.
I fear the socialistic bastards who are trying to destroy the basic principles and freedoms of our country more than I fear all of the other bastards and nutballs.
But you are incorrect that they did it for intel, since that is also not possible.
Where's the study or even a valid argument supporting this claim.
So, while I can use torture to force you to echo back something, like 'say you murdered that person!', no matter what you say (or don't say) that can not possibly indicate anything about you (other than you want the torture to stop), all it really proves is the torturer instructed the victim to say something, and the victim did.
Maybe, just maybe they would be smart enough (yes I'm still talking about the govt) not to ask questions like that. It's not like they were looking for confessions from the people; they're not police officers; they weren't even planning on bringing them to trial.
If you stop thinking about using enhanced interrogation techniques (haha, couldn't help myself) solely for a trial, maybe you will see how ludicrous your argument is. Maybe the govt knows an attack on a major US city is imminent, but they do not know the timing. Maybe they capture two or more people that they already know, through other means, were instrumental in the planning. Maybe they are able to get them to break, each giving the same details. Is that not intel?
Sure that is an extreme case, but it is cases like that where I can honestly say I would support the usage. If anything, allowing these terrorists to come to a US Court sets a precedent where the usage of information gathered by torture becomes acceptable in a criminal investigation.

Why was it a military coup when it was ordered by their congress, their supreme court, and their constitution? Zelaya fired himself the moment he called for the referendum. This is under direction of their constitution and their rule of law and there is good reason for it, too, given the history of the country and surrounding areas.
He wasn't trained to do it in the Q400 and a stall test wasn't required to be certified to fly that aircraft. Add to that the fact that the Q400 has a stick-pusher and from what I hear he had no hours logged on any aircraft that did.
With or without the stick pusher, though, any trained pilot should know to increase speed by nosing down in a stall situation. I guess, in this case, he encountered something new and had a horrible, horrible brain-fart as to why the stick was automatically pushing down.
Just curious, was that a GA or a commercial flight you were the piloting in your runway incident?

Yes, that's exactly what they should have done.
And nobody needs boats or travel trailers too. Everybody should live just like me and be perfectly okay with it!
No kidding!!! She was way too successful! That bitch should give some of the money to the poor schlobs like me who REALLY deserve it.
Once you begin punishing success, you lose the incentive to work hard to be successful.
I think people just don't fathom how hot it can get here. There's times where I get sweaty just walking to the car.
Just speculating here, but some buses have those bike holder things on the front of them.
