Ain't you heard, Trayvon was using an iPhone at the time and George was an android fanboi. George was heard saying "you've got some nerve coming into this neighbourhood with an iPhone, this is Android country".
Contrary to popular belief, serial killers span all racial groups. There are white, African-American, Hispanic, and Asian serial killers. The racial diversification of serial killers generally mirrors that of the overall U.S. population.
And from Wikipedia:
While it is true that most serial killers are white males, white (Anglo) males are actually slightly underrepresented in the serial killer ranks in terms of their proportion of the general male population
And white men make up the vast, vast majority of serial killers and pedophiles. I guess we shouldn't let them be teachers, etc, right? It's just 'fact-based statistics', right?
Well Mercedes are a favourate of bankers and corporate "fat cats". I couldn't think of a better challenge to Anonymous. Speed limiter to 20mph? Stuck in the driveway? I wait with eagerness.
Whether it's free Wi-Fi or paid Wi-Fi, read those Terms of Service. I'm sure this activity was disclosed in theire either explicitly or with ambiguous language. As the saying goes: Don't like it? Don't use it.
Where would you draw the line?
Adding adverts for their hotel?
Switching adverts for other hotels to theirs?
Removing negative reviews of their hotel, or changing the rating?
Removing news items supporting a political party the owners don't favour?
Adding fictitious negative news stories about a political party the owners don't favour?
In my view as soon as you start delivering content that has been changed from that the original author intended (except under complete control of the user such as adblock) then you are on dodgy ground.
They say that evloution can't be true because the bible says it. And that global warming must be wrong because they like driving an SUV, and because they know they are nice people they cannot be impacting the environment. Most people you meet within science won't be at all like that.
It might actually be even stranger than the normal Streisand-related backfiring; there's a theory floating around that EA are actually deliberately exploiting the increased publicity of this to divert attention away from the fact that they're an utter bunch of assholes in many other ways. No idea whether it's true or not, but seemed worth mentioning.
yes its true, they are an utter bunch of assholes in many other ways.
Well, he owned a music store and was selling Fender amps from America. He took them apart and inspected them and figured he could make them cheaper and sell them for a better profit in England than he could by importing them from America. He used British variations of tubes that gave his amps a different sound than Fender amps. He happened to be in the right place at the right time with the right product.
And that's in a time before someone who had never made an amplifier in their life would turn up with a patent for "amplification giving a pleasing sound" and taking both fender and Marshall to court.
Lawyers cost money, I have no idea how much money this lost you but sometimes it's not worth fronting $5,000 for a lawyer when $500 is at stake.
Sometimes a letter from a lawyer saying you will take things further is all it takes. In the UK this costs around £30 ($50 USD). I had a warranty company pay up on receiving a letter despite telling me that I was not covered when i wrote or called myself.

The Phantoms of Google+
·
· Score: 2, Funny
Actually, I avoid Google+ to avoid the people who use tired "cyber-phrases" like "meatspace" and rabid Google fanbois (I apologize if that's being redundant) who will sacrifice (and then try to sanctimoniously justify that sacrifice) their privacy for the latest Shiny.
Sounds like a grab to boost G+'s userbase beyond Wil Wheaton and Google engineers.
Not gonna touch Google+ until they get rid of their "real names" policy and I'm not inclined since I've invested so much of my online social life with Facebook.
Do you use your real name on Facebook? Seriously a lot of people complain about the "real name" policy even though they use it openly on Facebook. This may or may not be hypocritical, I suppose if you keep your porn collection on Picasa....

Not news for nerds.

Wait until the Muslim schools use this as a defence for teaching that Christians are evil and deserve to be killed.
I'm curious, what problems do you think evolution brings up?
That people are largely animalistic/instinctual and dangerous if left to themselves.
That makes me so angry that i could bite you.
Maybe now they'll stop eating your kids!
Or just track them via GPS
Essentially they were expensive bricks that did not get used.
I'd like to see a follow-up study on physical fitness

I missed the other articles, but the raw data comes from http://www.prevent-abuse-now.com/stats.htm

Right about the serial killers but wrong about the paedophiles.

How could Titanic be a straight up action movie, you moron? Aliens and Icebergs?
Hmmm ... I can see some Japanese 'B' movie director picking up his phone right now:
yes, and the aliens transported the iceberg do they could regain the diamond which was really an alien super-computer...

Thank goodness it passed the cat rubbing test. We Europeans love rubbing electronic devices on our cats.
Well my GF always wants me to rub devices on her pussy

Can anybody tell me what the "Marshall Sound" was, and how this would compare to a guitar played through something like a Yamaha?
Soddom
Screw that, I'm breeding my own personal army.
Hey, is that you Jango Fett

Respect is earned, not given.
Except in Bradford West.
The top 10 countries with the best HR records are
Norway San Marino Canada Belgium Luxembourg Sweden Finland Denmark Iceland New Zealand Slovenia
I doubt that even all 10 of them put together export as much as China. I think we just would have to stop buying at all.
Can I start a rumour that all of them are in favour of free abortions for gay couples?
Desktop Linux is not a large enough market to have any significant bearing on the importance of Flash.
Ah but you see, next year it will be the year of the Linux Desktop and it will all change!
Yes everyone was waiting for Gnome 3 and Unity
