With all due respect, in what world is $27 a day and lunch allowance anywhere near enough to cover the living expenses of an adult who is not salaried but commanding a respectable hourly salary like there is a good chance some of these jurors are?
On one hand I enjoy imbibing and creating things and cocktails and liquor culture. On the other hand your friend sounds like an alcoholic with no knowledge of nutrition. Alcohol has calories, yes, but it's not that simple, even if you also "supplement" with protein fat and carb calories. You can't fill in the blanks starting from an alcohol diet; or rather you can due to the resilience of the body but it isn't healthy and will not be healthy in the long run.
So your point is demand for portable computing is irrelevant because the demand is arbitrary and stupid and desired by the masses? Why do you think anything exists? Mobile phones with powerful capabilities are the only things ever that the public has wanted? Don't get so caught up with fact we use the term "phone" to describe personal pocket sized computing devices; mobile computing was science fiction and now it is reality. It happens to have a phone function built in, and it's lineage traces back to making phones mobile, but honestly most technology these days can trace back to phone network advances and yet we aren't all keeping to telephony with the tech itself.
I worked at a front desk at a pool once. We sold OTC drugs like Tylenol. We had to charge a small price and could not recommend it or do anything except sell it to a person who had made the choice to buy it. I somehow think a teacher "diagnosing" someone would fall under the same provisions that prevented me from "prescribing" medication through any sort of recommendation.
I'd say it's much more like rape. Yeah it happens that some people have such a fetish but it is rooted in violence. I would hardly call it legitimate. I don't see violence driven people as being beneficial to society or having a drive that is worthy of objective consideration.
This crusade to draw parallels between Pedophilia and homosexuality is just as disgusting and obnoxious as when right wing pundits did it 10-15 years ago on Fox.
I agree in spirit but you don't have to worry because a lot of places account for how someone in their late teens/early 20s may date someone who is not yet 18. I believe PA has a 3 or 4 year buffer, for example.
I don't actually think a company censoring is morally wrong. I would rather companies censor themselves as they want rather than the government censoring everyone. That way there will always be a place that is uncensored, filling that niche and meanwhile the people who want censorship are satiated by the other options rather than forcing the government to gaze into people's lives.
Yeah it is a website. A website you don't have to join.
It's not a fucking law. It's a private business making business decisions. If you don't like it don't give them your business. It's the free market in action.
But you are too stupid too get that aren't you. Someone does something you don't like and it must be morally and legally wrong. It is sickening how many of you would puppet the law in your favor at the drop of a hat no matter how much anger you pretend to have against authoritarianism.
Because of this anecdote you're wrong. Also what the hell, how many kids use crack on a regular basis? Yeah a lot of kids drink and smoke weed, we're not talking about the obvious here. PS: A good number of kids do use crack on a regular basis, they are the ones trapped in the cycle of poverty.
The argument here is "I don't need it", "Well I do need it", "YOU FUCKING MORON HOW DARE YOU DISAGREE WITH MY PERSONAL NEEDS". This entire article is complete flamebait. Slashdot is a joke. How can an argument literally consist of multiple parties describing why, in their personal lifestyles, they individually need or don't need a certain type of cellular phone. OH BUT LOL CELL PHONES ARE TECH SO ITS ALL GOOD THIS IS SLASHDOT no this is arguing about the Kardashians except with some half assed "nerdy" basis
How do you know that's the truth? There is a good chance the powers that be dislike censorship as much as everyone else in the software realm and now that they have some real power are exercising their right to resist censorship in a way that makes an impact.
Well it is:P it's the east coast startup city and devs can make a manhattan living wage just starting out and even move up to moderately luxurious Manhattan wages.
Flash is more powerful than you would think. I felt the same way you did until I started doing some stuff in it for a class. I've been doing DSP work (implemented an FFT among other things) as well as toying with a game (a game loop real game not some timeline BS). I even wrote a scripting language for said game that runs in Actionscript. "Sup dawg we heard you like scripting languages" I know I know:P
This post makes no sense. You trashed a whole lot of things generally assumed to have been "designed" by programmers (GNOME and Firefox) and then act like it's designers who are at fault. Everything you have said just points more to the fact that designers SHOULD be designing UIs and that you just work with shitty software and/or designers in real life.

You must be a machine. No human could ever get first post like this.
Mod parent up

So two programming environments are bad? Everyone should settle on just one thing that works everywhere? And if not they hate FOSS?
Like MP3 players did? Like how people stopped buying iPods? Oh wait
Finally a gold backed currency of the future: the bit coin on a gold CD-R.

I always heard dogs understand pointing unlike wolves which is offered as proof of how they are a species rooted in human domestication.
How is this any different than any other situation involving links? What makes this a QR Code specific problem
Post a pic.

Are you actually this dumb or playing dress up
Google isn't banning anyone. It's a company providing a service. This isn't the Supreme Court passing down a decision here.

I figured out earlier on this is a fakepost or troll, but iPhone has had voice commands for a while. Hold down the home button and talk away.
Thanks. I nearly choked to death on my Qdoba you fucking dick
