Never mind, apple fanbois will lap this up. "I used to have bad reception when there where four bars or fewer, now it only happens when there are only two". Of course the only way to tell for certain if this is just papering over the problem is to compare reception with another phone in the same area.
I'm not sure exactly what schools are meant by 'creative arts' but in the Netherlands - and I bet in most of the Western world - art school students with a degree are have a lot of trouble finding a job at all in arts. So 83% is a fantastic score, specially considering the economic being unstable etc.
Of course it could just mean they look at the current economic climate and accept jobs stacking shelves in supermarkets instead.
I'm in the UK, have a computer science degree (two, actually), and have never really looked for a job. I've had two books published (with a third coming out soon), and have no shortage of consulting work.
I would assume that you had a job before taking up consultancy. Very few people can become consultants straight from University.
I lived in England and traveled around Europe for 3 years. Great beer, old/ancient cities, and gorgeous women. Everything else pretty much sucked ass though.
Let's see a 25% sales tax rate, $8 for a gallon of gas, houses for 3 times the price at 1/2 the size, electronics, clothing, food, and cars that are nearly twice as much, oh yeah did I forget the cronic 10-19% unemployment rate among adults and 75-99% unemployment rate among teenagers.
Get me a plane ticket I want to move right now!
Most college degrees in the US are pretty much not worth the paper they're printed on. Euro degrees even more so. I think the concept of hiring young people the moment they are legal to work and then train them according to their skills is a long missing concept in society.
All the rest of a "well rounded" education can easily be filled in by watching the discovery and history channels and reading a few books.
US employment rate has consistently been higher than the UKs over the last decade (currently USA 9.3%, UK 7.9%). The youth unemployment rate is 19.1% (2009 figure, latest I could find), almost exactly the same as the USA rate for the same year year.
Sales tax (VAT) is 17.5%. Petrol is currently £1.14 per litre = £4.31 per us gallon = $6.53.
Food is not double the price - its very hard to compare basics like bread and milk are about the same, other things are a little more. Cars are a lot more, but I think 1.5 times as much for most common models. House prices is hard, £250,000 could get you a large 4-bed house in Inverness or a studio flat in Chelsea. Houses are generally smaller, but certainly not three times the price unless you compare the city of London prices.
I always say, if people go to hell for sodomy, then you're going to hell for shaving and wearing a cotton-poly blended T-shirt - both things mentioned in Leviticus...I don't think it specifically mentions T-shirts though.
There is not a single Christian that some other Christian would not see as "bound for hell". Delightful religion;-)
But anyone who argues the brain isn't a pretty spiffy processing system ends up looking pretty silly.
Wouldn't they have just proved the point then. In their case at least......which would mean that they weren't silly after all..... so their comment would be silly.... which would prove their point.... [stack overflow]
- You could vote for Libertarian-republicans (like Ron Paul) who would end all wars, bring all soldiers home, and end the military-government hegemony.
- You could also join the "Free State" project to take-over New Hampshire, kickout the R's and D's, and turn into a Libertarian stronghold.
- Or you could just keep doing nothing.
Your choice.:-)
Change the last one to "just keep doing nothing.except bitch about it" and you will have 99% of the population happy.

Goatse man works at Apple.
I mean, they had to pull that out of somewhere.
He's invaluable to their market research department. He truly represents the average Apple fanboi

Of course there's the good old "live in mum's basement" alternative.
If I made an allusion to "the Beast of Redmond" it would be obvious to many /. readers, but it would seem very odd 1000 years from now.
No, they'll just think of "Bill Gates CXIV".
The Indian Christians are mostly trained in this by the US evangelicals.
Or of course "media studies", where they have to go to the cinema twice a week and then sit around and discuss the films

Take showers before going out in public. Brush your teeth twice a day. Get a haircut. Shave. Trim your eyebrow.
All good advice, but unfortunately I don't think CowboyNeal reads all the items personally any more.
Paying 4X my current taxes for 40 years will be cheaper than my student loans.
sounds like you did an astonishingly bad job picking a school and major.
And a job too by the sounds of it

I don't know, maybe you LIKE the idea of free government handouts with no strings attached?
So long as its exclusively for me. Who wouldn't!

"I want to be a rent boy for the Chinese!"
Alien, in this context, = outside of our solar system. As in too far for you to take a picture.
You are making quite an assumption about where the GP poster lives and is posting from. Beam me up dismiley!
Jules was dressed like this at the time.
couldn't they get "hacked" and have it "leaked" to some well known torrent sites?
Unfortunately they would be responsible even if they were hacked.
Hands up if you saw this as happening the minute you read the original story a few days ago.
Now put your hand down if you work for Sony.
He's really a she, but nobody would have taken a woman seriously in Computer science in the 60s.
You missed the car analogy. It'd be like a car enthusiast who's never heard of Ford. You always have to have a car analogy. It's the law!
What, you man "Ford" was a person?

How'd you pull that off? Leap day's this year, after all.
If you think I'm clever you should see my wife. She has -1 birthdays a year!
I mean why not just put your fucking keyboard on wheels and push it around?
