Hey, I've got an app that for $300 you can park anywhere in san francisco! Even someone else's driveway! For $3000 we'll even sell you parking on the bridge!
Good point.
It works when money is no object, and if that's the case, only the city collects. Never move in on the government's racquet - its like moving in on a mobster's racquet - never profitable for long.
I *never* use any kind of medicine (unless I have no choice), I never use band aids on nicks and scratches (don't disinfect them either). I have no food intolerance, food allergies or other weird ailment.
You must be descended from wild men with stone tools who lived in caves and ate mastodon meat with the Flintstones. I think we're related.
The summary will be perfect in "a few years time" when the researchers hope to have the solution.
So this is less a news story and more a fund raising effort. That rings true to me. I think we're seeing a lot more advertisement built right into the programming these days... What a novel idea: sell a lot of snake oil to sick people.
Its either a clunky authentication process or an attempt to discourage those with the correct login information that, in fact, actually belongs to someone else.
I can't ever decide whether its broken or social engineering when that happens...
Every little bit helps. But lets face it, they just love to put that electronic leash on the doomed.
If the poor can't maintain a valid ID, they'll just be issued one (shaped like a phone). We can just call it an alibi for the innocent, or for those guilty, a witness for the prosecution.
If they don't like the divide, it's time for them to pick up a shovel and start filling it in on their own. I'm tapped out.
Here's an idea, we'll eliminate Comcast and AT&T so you can have your basic internet and cable for free, just like the poor.
That's what I want to hear from our political campaigns. Don't elect anything less - demand more. The worst company in America should get jail time, not market guarantees. Kill this malignancy of corporate cancer.
So basically, when assured a demographic (and limited term) of a student, they deign help who they please. Not just the poor or needy citizens, but just the virgin meat: Children easily influenced by their advertising and enticements to pay per view, are their prey.
When Comcastula gets its virgin fetus guarantee, they offer to do the government's job, and protect the best interest of its third world citizens. Never mind the fact, as was stated, that they fail to deliver as promised.
Stop paying Comcast now. Don't vote for incumbents. If the wealth is not shared, then just take it back. Start with opening up the market to anyone who wants to compete with an la carte menu.
I have hope for the next generation. Maybe they will do better than we are doing.
They can't do much worse. After watching us all flail around in our clown shoes and greasepaint perhaps its all becoming just another comedy of manners and of errors.

Yeah, I kinda like Putin's thumbs and his nose these days....
Russians are chess masters, and they can always play for a draw or stalemate when it comes to American influence and interest. Whatever the game, these moves play infinitely more engaged and interesting than the cold war. The Cold Borscht is a dish best served cool to well mannered patrons. Patience is the key, this Empire has been around a long time, and they are here to stay. We might as well enjoy the ride.
A very insightful post. Thanks for your candor and honesty. Its not often we grow to change our perspective so that we can get to the truth even at the expense of being right. Nobody is perfect, we all have a past, but I believe you now.
Some of the most beautiful coastline on earth stretches from Santa Cruz to San Luis Obispo County. The waters are a National Marine Sanctuary. The Monterey Peninsula, Carmel, Pebble Beach, Big Sur are some of the most appealing destinations in California. The Los Padres National Forest extends into miles and miles of virgin wilderness from Ventana through the Santa Lucia and Coastal Range. The collision of the Pacific and Continental plates creates solid granite mountains rising up out of the pounding surf. East of the spectacular coastline is Steinbeck Country - the Salinas Valley, the salad bowl of America some of the most prosperous farmland on planet earth. It finds its water from the Salinas River which is the longest underground river on earth, as spring water percolates up from the range.
The idea of fracking here just makes me wanna stop driving. I can't believe this project has been moving forward all of this time with FALSE DATA from the lying scumbag pigs that want money from resources no matter what the long term cost to the planet. This terrain is the result of tectonics for billions of years, and all some folks can appreciate is that the fault line makes it easier to dig, and the bay makes it easier to transport. In a thousand years there will be nothing worth remembering about this era except for the beauty that was spared from human destruction. Every one of us will be dead in a century, why is that momentary presence so arrogant as to exploit everything possible just because we can.
Life will go on without sucking the Monterey Shale out of the ground so that some people get rich selling old technology to the "free" market. Somehow, I'm sure they can just move along to some renewable energy to sell when the fast easy bucks dry up. Good thing we found out it is already dry here, before they poisoned the golden goose.

Bacteria have feet?
Maybe the researchers aren't so drug resistant.

I guess money is no object. I have lots of objects but no money, personally.
...I avoid the "reply all" button in email, and I don't respond to writing on bathroom walls.
I still do Slashdot, Flickr, webmail, torrents, all without any concern about social dis-ease or VD from sucking a Fuckface on Twatter.
It was so much nicer when we could just attribute disasters to the Gods, sacrifice one or two goats and all be happy about it.
You have goats?
I ran out....
OH MY FG!
They were thinking with the wrong head, perhaps.
....
... On my slack time, of course.

Some of the most inspired ideas came with little heads.
In fact, to cure "smaller portions" I've noticed porn is a "swell" idea
Its like shampoo. Lather, rinse, repeat.

A conversation, even online, is not a syllogism.
Yes, but if you're really fly, you can cause multiple, simultaneous syllogisms....
Fins drink like fish, this is an important factor left out.
Fish don't drink, silly. Nobody drinks like them.
(unless they are cynical or demented)
Exactly right, you understand the issue precisely. History tends to flow on well trodden paths.

No No No
FUCK COMCAST FUCK COMCAST FUCK COMCAST
I just can't give that up. That's the only payoff we get so don't tell me to stop
FUCK COMCAST just feels so right!!

...Its a complete and utter failure of perfectly good Sociopathy.
Sold out souls are supposed to be a done deal. How the hell did a social conscience grow back in such barren soil?
Yeah, that sound about right.... just not Union Carbide.
Open source friendly company as most expensive brand out there... I wonder what MS fans will say now?
What they usually say... reboot.
Suddenly I feel like throwing a chair...
20 years ago, Cisco was the world's most-valuable company.
Bombay Company stock is down, too.
