...so they don't have any reason to undercut their own offerings to keep a dying landline industry alive. And the best part is not giving your money to AT&T or Verizon.
That is so funny. There is a book laying on my desk with the names of more customers of the "dying landline industry" in just one city than the total of VoIP customers nation and probably world wide.

When you bought your house did you not notice that huge place with the long strips of concrete? That was an airport.
Until the SSA sends a letter to the employer saying that the SSN of the employee is someone else's SSN. They even sent me a picture of the real holder of the SSN and asked if that was my employee.
Two of you that don't have a clue and you both get modded up for Insightful. What is/. coming to?
In the real world only a small percentage of the illegal workers are standing on the corner out in front of the Home Depot. A large number have completely legit looking driver's licenses and social security cards. Employers are barred by law from asking for anything more than is required by the I9 form.
Now how a database is going to help this? The only way you make itwork is to create an OK to work list and have everyone in the country who is legal to work listed along with photo.
"Do you understand why some people believe that ruining somebody else's country for our own convenience is a bit, well, unconscionable?"
Do you understand that some people don't? In a perfect world we wouldn't have people willing to intentionally attack civilians to further their cause. So if you have to have a bunch that do feel it is required to do so it is much better to have them do it somewhere else and if they have to attack your fellow citizens that they attack those that are armed, trained and paid to deal with it.
But if you are a bus-smitten general contractor who say has just finshed a building but has an agreement with the buildings owner to be paid for the building over time then the children would still receive the income from the agreement.
Personally, I think your works should become public domain after you die, and that corporations should have similar time-periods, let's say about 50 years.
I understand why you might think that but let's take as an example a novel written and published today. It shoots into the best sellers list and is making a ton of money and offers to buy the movie rights are pouring in. The author leaves his house to go pick up his four children from school and gets hit by a bus.
Should that work go public domain as his body cools?
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The key phrase in the above is "Congress". In the constitution that means the Congress of the United States of America.
Section 1 of the 14th says...
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Ratification of the 14th was finalized in 1868.
They really should teach Constitutional history better in the schools.

Smart Sunglasses

· Score: 2, Interesting
There are two problems with the current photochromatic sunglasses. First they are sensitive to only UV. If you are in a car built in the last 20 years they do not get near as dark as they would outside because the cars class is filtering a bunch of the UV.
Also they are very temperature sensitive. They work better when it is cold. Which is the exact opposite of when most people need sunglasses. I used to wear them and played gold on some very clear days in the winter and you could have used them for welding they got so dark. Speaking of welding there are welding shields with LCD to darken the window and I always thought that this technology if made smaller and lighter would be perfect for sunglasses.
Look Mom, my glasses get dark when I want them too.
Then check the Constitution because it is Congress that hands out the money. But the US Army is the best supplied military in the history of the world. The medical care problem I agree with you on though. That the VA.
You not only could say it you should say it. Now I know that many here at/. don't want to admit it but the majority of people in the real world don't use an open OS.
It's no secret that duct tape is an important tool to the NASA program. In fact, a roll goes up on every flight that leaves the launchpad. Good thing, too... Duct Tape has actually saved lives and equipment in space.
Of course the Russians had more space walk experience. They had to keep in shape because there was always a pretty good chance they were going to have to walk home from the Mir.
The chisel is over kill. You only need to tools in aerospace. A hammer and a roll of duct tape. If it moves and it isn't supposed to use the duct tape, if it doesn't move and is supposed to use the hammer.
There's the problem. In most cases they think they have studied the problem. Lobbyists for a given cause go to them with the literature and they then parrot it to their fans.

Less taxes are better. But the answer is not to tax one group of businesses and not the other competing businesses.

Not before 1868

Insightful my ass. The parent is trolling for karma by attacking the Army. Probably the same Army that he bitches about tax spending going to.
We know that no UFOs have ever visited France because the French would have surrendered to them.
No just Apples as far as this sub-thread goes. All comments were about operating systems. OSX and Win CE.

Without a doubt one of these will turn into Skynet one day.
