Have you considered not living anymore? If you've degraded to the point where basic life functions are no longer possible unaided, it's time to check out.
Private vehicles are almost always more time efficient than public transit and thus the demand for public transit will remain low, unless the urban planners fuck up the road network like in Irvine, California, where virtually the only through streets are the arterial routes.

The Promise of 5G

They're out to get you... and what are they going to do once they get you?
Actually... that's not correct... in the least... T-Mobile is actively deploying LTE across their entire 2G footprint, and are skipping 3G in the process. 2G cell sites are going to 2G/LTE but not 3G. If it's still justifiable after that's all done, then they might do a second pass to throw up 3G as well. By then, though, I expect them to be well into going into "4.5G" - whatever enhancements to LTE that are still-to-come whilst we wait for "5G" - assuming 5G will involve a revolutionary air interface (5G might end up being LTE as well.)
Because if I were a marketing agent at Tampax, I'd like to do my fellow men a favor and set those directly-sharable-to-your-timeline-and-eligible-for-autoplay videos I'll be uploading to the brand's official page to "women only" because not too many guys care to be shown advertisements for a product that they're not (generally) anatomically equipped to use, much less have a valid need of, because they have one or more of "that friend", or worse, "that family member", that shares the weirdest damned shit, including advertisements for women's sanitary products.
This becomes increasingly important when I'm paying per-impression to have these videos pop up on random people's newsfeeds in the ad slot. I don't want to pay for someone who'll almost certainly never care about my product (guys: do you really sit there and make decisions on which sanitary products your female partner uses? Do you sit there and think about what bit of cotton will sop up the most blood? No, she just tells you what to buy and you squeamishly get in and out of the store ASAP with the damned things, and hope you don't run into anyone you know during it all.) to see an ad that they have absolutely zero use for.
(I know I'm gonna get flamed for this, but it just came to mind as possibly the number one important use-case for gender controls.)
As a human being, I'm the highest power known to fucking exist. As we all are. Not some random wizard from millennia-old fictional history books. Or my smartphone, or motorcycle, or beer glass.
en.m.wikipedia.org != en.wikipedia.org so the answer is no. I'd punish anyone with this type of "split domain" crap. If you want a way to override and get mobile or desktop on the "other" device, have a link somewhere that abuses anchor links to add "#desktop" or "#mobile" to the end of the page, and have some small snipplet of JavaScript read this and override the detection flags. It's better than the current way of doing things, where going to the non-mobile domain (why the fuck are we having multiple domains for a SINGLE FUCKING WEBSITE AGAIN?) on a mobile phone throws you over to the mobile domain (Request desktop version be damned!) and if you casually copy-and-paste an article URL on your phone into an instant message, the other end is likely to go "WTF" at seeing a mobile page on a desktop PC.
Except most code that checks the OS namedoes not do an API version check. You've already "verified" the OS release once by name, why verify it again by version?
The concept doesn't seem that old to me, or perhaps my area (Tampa, Florida) was just very late to the game. Until I was in 6th grade (2001), both the K-12 school and public libraries ran on IBM 3270 dumb terminals. As "field, field, X, enter, field, field, field", etc., was somewhat difficult for many students, card catalogs were available until several years after the switchover. The schools didn't rid themselves of them until 2003, and the public library system removed them in 2008, except at large regional branch libraries, where they were still available and updated (although not as rigorously or regularly as the digital catalog) as of January 2013 (when I moved out-of-state.)
No, iPad is just a dodgy ass device. For fucks sakes, it doesn't support mice or standard gamepads (instead resulting in iCade, another protocol on top of Bluetooth that exists solely to work around Apple's lack of foresight.)

Superior ability breeds superior ambition.
Schizophrenia is a very serious mental illness and I recommend that you seek immediate medical treatment for it. Like, now.

Socialism's great until you run out of other people's money.
So boot a Ubuntu LiveUSB, install GParted real quick, and then use that to modify partition sizes without having to reinstall. Easy peasy.
Back in the day, I would have recommended the Parted Magic live distro as it comes with GParted out-of-the-box, but it's gone to a pay model.
Care to cite your sources? Or are you just shilling away for another payday?

They'll blame the bronies; after all, who's old enough to acquire porn and would be willing to trade it for access to a children's cartoon?

Even professional programmers are lazy.
First off, not all "pods" are iPods. "pods" here is an overly generic term for any portable music player.
Secondly, Apples highlights FaceTime video calls as one of the selling points of the iPod. Nice try with that one.
What, why is this garbage modded up?
Because it's intended to be incorrect as a form of humor, which is lost on you, it seems.

Here's an ARM Cortex-M0 in DIP.
It's worth noting that the Android API already provides methods and identifiers specifically for handling mice and styluses. see http://developer.android.com/r... and http://developer.android.com/r...
And I'd love to see T-Mobile with an easy billion to build out more LTE with.
yes but no true scotsman cares about the rain in Connecticut.
Fallacy much? :P
