MS had really lost its way there for awhile. Shortly after they got some focus back and started producing 'quality' well marketable software again. Here we are in 2015 and I kinda think they are headed back off the deep end trying to change the revenue model for Windows and Office and continuing to muck around in the mobile space where they are simply to late to the party. MS has remembered where their bread is buttered before and probably will again.
Microsoft is selling more tablets than Apple, making more money than Amazon in the cloud business, and based on market cap is the 3rd biggest company in America (after Apple and Exxon). Microsoft is bigger than Berkshire-Hathaway, bigger than Wells Fargo, than JP Morgan. Twice the size of Coca-Cola, Chevron or Verizon. I don't think they need the advice of some dude in the peanuts gallery as to how they should manage their business.
Chernobyl was dispersed via wind and eventually down onto the ground mainly affecting europe, whereas fukushima has the entire world's oceans to disperse into
The thing is, Fukushima is STILL leaking. The waste wasn't supposed to reach North America until 2020 but it's already there. Who knows the extent of the damage once it's over. Nobody even know WHEN it will stop leaking.
They could at least wait until Fukushima stops leaking radioactive waste (which has now reached North America) before sending boats to kill more whales.
Now most people I know including multi-millionaires don't keep over 100k in the bank. The bank is only good for holding money for high liquidity.
You'd be surprised. Call your bank and ask for the interest rate when the balance stays above 100k or even 250k. In many banks this VIP rate beats money market instruments like certificates of deposit.
This is a good solution in a few situations, such as wealthy senior individuals, who have plenty of other assets and no long term incentive to invest.
Posting *ignore* is pretty much not ignoring. It means instead that you want to have the last word, like a petulant child.
Clearly what we've established in this thread is that having a somewhat-low-digit ID is not evidence of being clever, wise or funny. Thank you for your contribution!
The guy said, "4-digit ID" and my ID does in fact have 4 digits.
You remind me of a coworker who had a BMW keyring and was always talking about his beemer. His car was a $27,000 1-Series, cheaper than a Honda Civic with A/C, but hey, it was a BMW.
With each additional digit it's an order of magnitude longer to bump up. This means you're closer to join me in the 6-digit club than I am to join the mega-n00bs.
Try to steal an old lady's bag while there's 3 "conceal carry" citizens nearby. You'll end up in police custody and no shot will be fired because having three guns that you didn't expect to be there pointed at your face will make you think twice about both the flight and the fight options. That's why it's relevant.
But you won't get that in the newspapers because Obama said more people die of guns than terrorism so guns are evil.
Are you aware that there are like 5 other women who came forward to also accuse him of rape?
I don't know if he did rape all those women or if he's just such a big asshole that so many of them "bare false witness" to hurt him, either case fuck him.
9000+ barely qualifies as a 4-digit. That's like saying you own a Cisco router but really it's a Linksys with the Cisco logo that you got on sale at Best Buy for $39 and would you have waited 1 week it would have been a Belkin.
When you are getting a 20% return rate, you're not making profit anyway
How can you make that kind of blanket statement? It totally depends on the profit margin and the cost of restocking. If you get 98% profit on $200 items that cost $3 to restock, who cares about 20% return rate.
Why do people get off on telling others what to do when they know less than what the average person on the street does?
Maybe the first step to get an answer to that question would be for you to explain why you, personally, are doing it?
You call people stupid, you claim to know what "everyone" thinks, and also you claim to know more about terrorism than Wikipedia. Feel free to keep piling up bitter comments and outrageous claims, but I think the extent of what you can contribute to this debate has been fully explored.
Do you get the idea now about how your initial post insulted just about everyone?
And you know that how? Did you organize a poll? Made phone calls? Went door to door with a clipboard? Or are you just so full of yourself that you can't help but project your own feelings on "everyone"?
I don't know what led you to get your panties in a bunch like that, and to be honest I can't say I really care, but really take a chill pill dude.
As for the whole "France has more experience in terrorism", a simple Wikipedia search proves you wrong. Compare the ranks of the USA and France on this simple scale:
Sorry, I can't make sense of your comment as a whole
Kind of my point. If you knew enough to understand you wouldn't have written "France and other countries will learn", but you've clearly not bothered to pay much attention to the issue you are commenting on and thus what is considered normal general knowledge seems mysterious.
No, what is mysterious is the way you put words and sentences together but as a whole they mean nothing. Are you Estonian or something like that? I've heard this kind of babbling from an Estonian janitor at work. The guy is very friendly but omg the way he speaks reminds me of that robot lady that drives airships from her bath in BSG.

It's only her second job. Give her a chance.

that lady who took an 80% pay cut to join his team because she was so impressed by him must be real happy now

Did it work, or did they fire you?
the Women's Temperance Movement wasn't very different from what the MPAA/RIAA and others are doing today
Don't forget MADD, another corrupt organization of women where they pocket half the money they raise from the gullible public.
Shame on you, women.
Are you aware that there are like 5 other women who came forward to also accuse him of rape?
I don't know if he did rape all those women or if he's just such a big asshole that so many of them "bare false witness" to hurt him, either case fuck him.

We would have to ask her other boyfriends/partners. Maybe she's just one of those women who don't listen!
I would say the waterboarding part is also something I wouldn't forgive easily.

came after about 10 plugin/pull out cycles..
that's what she said
Too bad you specifically asked one of those guys for a solution because *I* do have one.
You seem to have a thing for chicks who have an unusually large amount of space between their eyes. Do you have a fly or ant fetish?
I would spend the whole time giving him ideas like bashd, which would includes commands such as:
-lsctl
-rmctl
-victl
and I'd also suggest that he starts working on PulseWifi, because just like audio and daemons, wifi is something that needs to be reinvented.

Even Norway has a higher Global Terrorism Index score than France.
Maybe next time you could look things up before calling other people stupid.
