One day people will have more than their fill of the entertainment cartels' BS, and after they day those smug little shits who buy their own laws and judges will get a big big surprise
Of course laptops were in warehouses, in transit on slow steaming cargo ships...many with SuperFish will still be sold even though Lenovo stopped installng it. No point to the story
Actually, there are many, many cultures in the world where singers with beautiful voices are very popular though they are old and ugly. For example, many would say Pavorotti was a big fat ugly old man....with the voice of a god
Now that was hilarious coming from nick of "Billy Gates". Aero, is that a thing on that glorified program loader from Redmond fraudulently sold as an OS? My machine has none of that.
uh, your information is dated, they don't do the fling-yourself-on-the-pyre thing any more. It was outlawed in 19th century in India, and in 1920 in Nepal.
"Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property. My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs." -- Commander in Chief in India, to Hindu priests complaining that they couldn't do the Sati thing any more.
"Has to have cleared orbit". Even if Earth or any other rocky planet put where Ceres or Pluto was, they couldn't clear that orbit.
They're planets. "Dwarf planet" is an invention of morons, 95 percent of the astronomers in the IAU didn't vote on it because of when the vote was done.
So you care about eye candy rather than technical features of software. Why do you go to a forum where they critique the accessories in the Paris fashion show? People like you are the reason GUI have become bloated pieces of shit
U.S. is ruled by sociopaths who murder for power and profit, and your children will have to support them with tax. Also, their assets can be frozen or seized by various jack booted agencies (DHS, IRS, etc.) in violation of Constitution at any time for no reason at all. They can be assassinated by presidential decree or imprisoned in Gitmo without trial or even anyone knowning.
Sounds like win-win-win all around to me, sign them up!
Were they only looking at endpoint? for the USA, item for $2 in 1800 cost $1.00 in 1850 (deflation) but then $1.32 in 1875 (inflation) but back to $1 in 1895
Look it up, that "sweet spot" applies to most everything we grow. It's actually a number used for co2 concentrating hothouse systems.
Soil is the result of climate, the composition of soil actually will change in your imagined scenario. For example, in the most fertile farmland in the USA, which is in an area in Illinois, the ground gets cold enough that bacterial action stops. This is in contrast to areas with depleted soil further south, where nutrients get broken down and washed into water table all year.
There is so much wrong with your glib trite rebuttal it's simply not funny
You make all manner of unwarranted assumption. Plenty of my friends buy lottery tickets for fun and entertainment and they have $90K+ IT and engineering jobs.
Plenty of SMART people shop at Walmart, because they have the best prices for common items. You think I'm going to pay 2x more for a 3 pack of tissues at a froofy artys mom and pop shop ? Is that what you do?
Eh, you're confused. You can buy a car with cash, but ID and insurance check will also be done to get title. Cash doesn't mean you won't be known.
You can pay income tax with coins, that's been done look it up. One famous case was trucker who paid in pennies and had court reprimmand IRS dude for not taking it.
people have paid income tax in coin, look it up. couple friends of mine have paid cash for cars and got title from MSO (ID and insurance is verified of course anyway when you purchase a car), you really have me confused on what isn't supposed to be possible.
Nope, inflation will probably make that about $400 equivalent or less (in present time's money). *yawn* If that amount of money makes a huge difference 40 years from now you're pretty much in poverty and fucked over anyway.
Your self-righteous blather is moronic. Who made those doritos, mom and pop slaving over a oil-filled kettle? Or did a billion+ dollar corp do that? Can mom and pop make a profit filling their store with low overhead bulky things like paper towels, toilet paper, and 50 lbs. bags of potting soil? You're a douche with no grasp of reality, Walmart does those things because it makes sense that a multi-billion dollar corporation has the logistics, transport and floor space to do those things. The proper realm of mom and pop would be custom made items, art, unique services with product, etc.
You talk out of your ass. Look up relevant cases before spewing in ignorance, two decades ago even the IRS was bitch slapped after refusing trucker who paid in pennies. Refusing legal tender puts you in a very bad position in a court of law.
You could not be more wrong, coins are legal tender too
Section 31 U.S.C. 5103: "United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues."

Nonsense, I'd have no problem with 14 planets now rather than the 9 there were defined when I was a child.
We expand the list of discovered planets, with a sane definition of "planet". That's the proper thing to do.
No, there are many, many layers in a typical UI. And so we have lightweight desktops to counter that problem

we are in subthread started by SeaFox that brought up USA differences
correct but I'm in subthread started by SeaFox that brought up USA
and not able to be used by browsers in Linux because of flash version needed
it can be used by browser on OS X though

oh, and boom-bust also happens under gold standard. Proven by thousands of years of history in the west and east. Proven by pre-fed USA too.
You're funny, inflation happens under gold standard too. So does fractional reserve banking.
