You're absolutely right. Parents shouldn't actually invest any effort at all into knowing anything about what they are giving their kids. I bet you let strangers give your kids little baggies of powder too....figure it's pixie dust.
False. First freaking "FREE" app I found on their site has this silly little link right at the top called "See all Application Permissions". This of course happens to be just below the text "Offers in-app purchases".
Android app permission requirements are clearly stated. Among these are "in-app" purchases where applicable. While I personally haven't used Amazon's alternative app-store. I'd be willing to wager there's a "require password for purchases" setting just as there is on the Google app-store.
History demonstrates that things don't truly work that way. The content in question is NOT available by any reasonable means. There is nothing to boycott since you cannot get it but for illicit means. Regional restrictions means there is no lost revenue since there is no product for sale in that region. If it were for sale then people would buy it. When Netflix complied with Hollywood bullying, the products were pulled from the Canadian market.
In many people's minds the minute a copyright holder refuses to provide copy, they wave their rights as such.
The newer generations aren't Marxist, and no where does this poll suggest it. What you can gather from other sources such as marketing profiles is they reject wholly the "profit at any cost," "f--k you, you get what we offer and you'll like it" attitude that has become synonymous with capitalism. They care about social and environmental responsibility. From where I stand that's not a bad thing. I find its lack in the older generations chief among their flaws.
As of 2013 US median income was $51,939, so yes, that by definition fits the "middle" class. I'm not terribly certain where the "liberals" part comes into it, however if you wish to look at that then I would suggest you thank you "liberal" friends since conservatives generally prefer to "let the markets determine" things such as employee compensation, overtime rules, minimum wage, occupational safety requirements, etc.. Those notions are a product of us liberals talking out of our arse.
Actually, you should get ready for an improvement in unemployment rates for jobs affected by rule change. The labor cost calculations will change making additional employees most cost effected relative to paying overtime.
The definition of poverty tends to evolve over time. In 1920 if you owned a Model T you were considered pushing into the upper crust. In 2016, if you owned a contemporary car having the same characteristics as the Model T you'd be assumed to be impoverished. First-world poverty in the 1920s more closely resembles third-world poverty today. Whereas first-world poverty today would seems shamefully wealthy to much of the third-world.
Does it get sucked up from the floor and onto my hands? Is there evidence that it atomizes and is breathable? The Dyson's (or any other hand dryer) part in the water on the floor is no different than what happens after someone shakes their hands off following washing (rinsing) their hands.
As far as I can tell this is a purposely misleading study intended to create FUD and boost paper towel sales. This study demonstrates that if you place wet, dirty hands into the dryer (who does that?), that dirt (germs) will be blown off your hands and splatter up to 3m away. It does not show that the Dyson produces atomized water particles containing germs in the air. Nor does it show that the hands of the person whom just washed and dried them are more ladened with germs than the other methods. This study would be a concern if you planned on licking the bathroom floor and adjacent wall space. That not really my hobby interest.
I'm likewise confused. Am I failing to observe a massive contingent of people that choose not to wash their hands but nonetheless place their hands in the dryer anyway? Further, why do I care if the people that opt to not wash their hands pick up germs in addition to the feces they just smeared on the bathroom door from the people that chose to dry unwashed hands.
The whole reason why Trump has become so popular is that corporations (particularly media) have been given him a podium from which to issue hate speech, and incite violence. I'm all in favor of the freedom of speech but these have already been ruled (for good reason) as types of speech that are not protected by the first amendment.
It's a Tesla not a BMW. Musk has gone on record as stating that even the base model will be quite generously equipped. This includes the autopilot hardware with safety features turned on (find that in any other car of that segment), supercharger capable, 215+mi range, 6s 0-60MPH. Interior features are yet to be revealed so we'll have to wait for specifics. At this point however, I see no reason not to take Musk at his word. The $14B is probably based upon his belief that the average buyer of the car will add upgrades bringing it to around $42,500.
Please help me understand how discontinuing a product is evil? Why should a company be forced to spend resources to perpetuate the life of legacy products indefinitely? It goes beyond impractical.
This current rant is framing things as if Google is intentionally pushing a command/code to your devices to disable what would otherwise work forever. This isn't even close to accurate. Nest, Revolv, and their IoT kind depend upon more than the installed physical hardware to function. They depend upon web services that Google has decided to no longer sink money into. This is little different from cellular service providers that shut down their analog, or 2G (e.g. AT&T Dec. 31st, 2016) service. They're not bricking your phone by sending malicious commands to it. They're ceasing the flow of electrons to the service component. That service is part of the product and it would be unreasonable to expect it to be propped up indefinitely regardless of what marketing speech was used.
Nest and their ilk have their origins here. If you want the sexy package and no nerdy electrical/software engineering work, you buy Nest. If you want to geek out and spin the solution yourself you build from X10.
Some risks aren't work taking. I'm not a nuclear engineer, and can't speak directly to the issue here. However, if a nuclear engineer intimate with the details speaks up in such a manner, and especially if a group of them do, you'd damn well better pay attention. Engineers don't use hyperbole. If they say this is a problem that merits shutting down reactors it does.
Citation required. To go stereotypical, Asians consistently outperform other groups having similar (low) incomes. The common cultures associated with each minority group however, have very different priorities regarding the value of education.
If you bothered to do any research you'd find that this school, follows the Harvard, MIT, etc. model wherein tuition is exceedingly high, but financial aid is made available on a need basis. According to the school the average recipient is awarded $25,708. While still a bit steep, that places tuition within reach of those not in the %1 club, and helps ensure only academically motivated parents apply to send their kids there.
Bashing successful people might seem like a fun, cathartic way to deal with your own lack thereof. It however, is often--not always, but often--more correct and certainly more productive to assign blame at your own lack of thoughtful drive and determination. Rich brat offspring may get a head start, but if they lack those traits they usual end self-destructing. Regardless, their parents started on the ground floor, they made themselves using the resources available to them as a commoner.
In the medical field this is not meaningless. If a radiologist missed the cancer, and the lawyers find that he was using a "lossy" display there's a real possibility of a lawsuit. This is why diagnostic imaging is almost universally stored in a lossless format. The three main choices being uncompressed, JPEG process-14, or JPEG2000 Lossless.

You mean something like this?
Yet knowing this you never bothered to configured the account password on the tablets?

For good and bad, Jimmy was a bit different...

Fortunately or unfortunately, that's not the point. There have been demonstrations to that affect but no one is willing to risk it.
They'd lose face with their global customers.
