Yeah, I gotta say, agreed. Our 2007 Prius has a lifetime average of 49.8MPG, meaning I have spent less than $3,000 on almost 60,000 miles in gas.
It actually has more space for cargo than the Camry, in all respects, largely as much as most station wagons. Driving from Seattle to Boise, it has enough power to easily cruise up the huge hill at Pendleton Oregon at 75mph (I actually have to turn cruise control off, because my wife doesn't like the corners being taken at that speed).
It's a good thing no-one seized BP's money, then, isn't it?
Where is that $20B? In an escrow fund, of BP's choosing, managed by BP, as a symbol of commitment to pay for proven damages later.
Even some of the hardest-line republicans and their mouthpieces on AM radio and FOX have backed way away from Barton's statement. Possibly for a good reason.
Wow, apparently you're a troll. Imagine how bad it'd have been if you also mentioned that tethering your iPhone might lead AT&T to cancel your service for breach of contract, too...
No, I mean the children that were shot after they got out of the van.
Even your reasoning makes no sense. "I can't see my target, I'm not sure if it's clear. What the hell, I'll just open up with my grenade size cannon anyway..."
Murder is also much different from mistaking children for... children, who ummm, "shouldn't have been being driven through a warzone, err, their home town anyway"...
Jesus Christ, your reading comprehension sucks. Guess what, the foundations of OSX and BSD are "linked" from some common components. By your rationale, they are the same thing.
Fuck me, what convoluted lengths are you not willing to stretch to to fulfil your analogies.
HDMI sucks as a PC display connector. It's only really good for connecting to a TV. It's interesting that the HDMI port on the mini supports higher-than-1080p resolution (1080p being the reason HDMI is so awful for desktop use)
Huh what? That's nothing magical or mystical. I've been connected to my Westinghouse 24" 1920x1200 LCD via HDMI for three years at native resolution...
Yes, because it's the western corporations that caused local politicians and warlords to become corrupt dickholes.
Takes two to tango. You can't be corrupt without a corporation WILLING to pay your bribes or extortion either. And that's just reactive. It's hardly like a company willing to do that has some sort of moral aversity to being more proactive, and offering up bribes to ensure they are at the head of the line for any resources.
And don't say "they don't want to, but it's an unfortunate but necessary price of doing business there". If it's wrong, don't do it. Not "it's wrong, but there's money to be had, so...".
You're part of the solution, or you're part of the problem.
Here's the thing, anyone can write malware that "schedules a shutdown of the world's computers". For Linux, OS X, whatever.
What the Chernobyl reference doesn't mention is how many of the world's computers WERE shutdown by the existence of that virus. Why? Because very, very few were, unlike the implication of your original.
And seriously? Jerusalem? A 27 year old virus, that also had very little, if any, "catastrophic impact".
THAT is what I'm talking about with FUD. To read your post, you would get the perception that on multiple occasions, Windows PCs around the world were massively impacted by such a thing. Truth is, they weren't.
I wonder if this also discriminates against the children of poor people who can't even afford the $25.00/mo.
No, of course it doesn't! They can still go to school. Another school, that is. Not that school. Can't have them risk failing to meet the "100%" target. (And God only knows what discounts, rebates and kickbacks, money over and under the table that target is earning...)
The iPhone will be useful for video calls to people you actually know, on a PHONE.
Who also happen to have bought an iPhone 4G, and who also happen to be connected to a Wifi network with said iPhone, as are you, when you want to call them. Easily as onerous as your list of caveats for the alternative. (But I'm not entirely surprised, as you seemed to be blindsided by the concept of standardized UMTS video calling...)
Slashdot Mirror
For spam, it could receive encrypted email through an RPC or other socket, and run an SMTP client.
Seriously, I think the first RBL check 99% of mail servers out there do is for "is originating SMTP server on a dynamic or residential connection".
... like the optimal positioning of the antenna ...
I should have specified Camry Hybrid, which was approximately $3000 more than our Prius (our package was $27,000, the comparable one was $30,000).
It actually has more space for cargo than the Camry, in all respects, largely as much as most station wagons. Driving from Seattle to Boise, it has enough power to easily cruise up the huge hill at Pendleton Oregon at 75mph (I actually have to turn cruise control off, because my wife doesn't like the corners being taken at that speed).
Why not just say "I surf 4chan for porn". Most of know exactly what you meant.
US oil companies like B(ritish) P(etroleum) and (Royal Dutch) Shell, you mean?

Err, wait...
Fuck me, what convoluted lengths are you not willing to stretch to to fulfil your analogies.
Interesting, violence is just fine, as long as it is meted out against those you've decided "disrupt orderly society"?
How very humanitarian of you.
Of course, we are infallible, and no innocent man has ever been sent to his death.
You'd have no problem with being on the firing squad of one of those executions, too, I get the feeling.
"An acceptable cost for an orderly society", most likely...
Yeah, it takes a good 80 seconds for a car to pass me at 40+ mph... ooooo-kayyyyy...
Right, so the ATI Radeon HD 4330 512 MB that you can get with the Zino can't do HD video... Ooooohhh-kay.....
Huh what? That's nothing magical or mystical. I've been connected to my Westinghouse 24" 1920x1200 LCD via HDMI for three years at native resolution...
It's not all as simple as you'd like to pretend.

How many viruses caused a worldwide scheduled shutdown of Windows PCs? Just curious.
Just curious, cause, you know, we wouldn't to think you were a FUD-monger, right?
No, of course it doesn't! They can still go to school. Another school, that is. Not that school. Can't have them risk failing to meet the "100%" target. (And God only knows what discounts, rebates and kickbacks, money over and under the table that target is earning...)
I remember the keynote, wasn't Steve's "one more thing" him reaching into a schoolbag and pulling out a Macbook, touting that as a feature?
No, it wasn't.
Hint: he never said 'most' would.
Yes. 32+8=40GB. So you get more for the same price. I'm not sure I'm seeing your so-called point...?

Nokia N97 was released with wireless hotspot functionality almost a year ago today.
