T-mobile does not charge you extra to use the features currently on your phone, they just charge you for the data usage. They do not care if it is tethered or if you have a 4g hotspot set up on your phone or just downloading data to your phone they just look at it as data, as they should.
Is T-mobile the only US carrier that will give you a sim unlock code once your phone is paid for, upon request.
Have you ever not been able to get out of your driveway because there is three feet of heat covering everything?
You can always put on more clothes, you reach a point where you CAN'T take off anything else without going to jail.
There is specialized clothing you can buy that makes it bearable to be in -50F. There is also specialized clothing that makes it more bearable to be in triple digit weather. In both cases if you are not correctly dressed your life can be in danger.
Not to mention, jacket and tie in 117 degrees is near suicide.
Yea, I would consider suicide also if I had to wear a jacket and tie.
So, in a country with a 360 million+ population, you're telling me there are zero talented people outside northern California? Somehow I find that difficult to fathom... probably because it's complete bullshit.
You interpreted what I said in the most wrong way you could. You basically said that a physical location basically isn't needed because there is high-speed internet. I dis-agreed that physical location is not needed and specified that you want the physical location to be where talent is, I did not specify a location other than "where the talent is".

Damnit, you are right, when I double checked the temperatures the high only got to 96 F. Off by 14 degrees.
Seriously, though, you do realize there exist many, many temperate regions that stay between the temperature extremes you've mentioned, right? I.e., the vast majority of America.
Yes, I have lived in many states and a province. In the debate of Cold vs Hot I choose Hot. I have been to hell and it is cold.
I thought the ubiquity of high-speed internet access almost everywhere eliminated the need for centering technological progress around a particular geography...
With a company there will be a physical location. You want that physical location to be where the talent is.
Also, heat is bad for electronics, so why in the name of everything holy would tech startups want to base themselves in an area that regularly experiences triple-digit temperatures?
You loose less days of productivity due to weather in high temperature areas vs snow areas.
I've lived in a place that gets to -50 F in the winter and climbs to 110 F in the summer. Trust me, a day that is 110 is a lot better than a day that is -50.
He used to be very consistent about not performing any actions in Pakistan, but after OBL was killed he changed his position. Actually he didn't change his position, but he claims that he still would have gone after OBL in Pakistan even though he would not perform any actions in Pakistan.
In 2007, Romney criticized then-candidate Barack Obama for stating that, as President, he would launch military strikes against "high-value terrorist targets" in Pakistan, even without the Pakistani government's approval.[123] In 2011, after such a strike resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden, Romney said that, if he had been President, he would have done "exactly the same thing."[124]
My prediction for the VP candidate is going to be a Cheney 2.0
Some rather sketchy politician with really questionable ties to industries whom everyone is pretty sure is just doing it as a means of making a shit load of money, consequences and country be damned.
The means of transportation that we used 150 years ago are still available to us today, but using them makes it so conspicuous that you are effectively tracked anyway.
Create a transcription before posting the stories because a large percentage of your audience will not sit though a video when they can read the entire story in around 45 seconds.
Your "editors" are worse at being "reporters" than they are at editing.
The best part is...None of this voids the warranty.
It's things like this that make me think this is vaporware. A warranty is a means of reducing support costs. If creating an entirely new case for the product doesn't void the warranty then the people making Ouya are going to have support costs from hell.

I thought Samsung just supplied the inner workings, not the exterior design?

I'd rather be in snow than heat.

His skin color is important to everyone, this will be the first time ever that a president who is not white is up for re-election.
It is more important to those who will or will not vote for someone based on their skin color. They exist in the full spectrum of left to right.
I try to see past the scams.
All religions are a product of man and therefor will be greatly flawed, but there are some jewels in there that makes it worth while at times.

It's faith based politics.
One reason my wife and I no longer go to church is because of the pastor making political comments in the sermons.
Politics is basically the an organization that works by flinging shit all over the place and I don't like shit mixed in with my religion.
You don't get all that tasty marketing data by sending out a twit.
Why don't you talk about your wonderful hero, the Obama and Obamacare CUTTING MEDICINE FROM MEDICARE.
He isn't. It is the states rationing the amount of medications one can receive. Why do you think this has anything to do with "Obamacare"?

If you want to see these scanners in use then watch Jacked.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1280619/
They drive around in SUV's with reinforced bumpers with the scanners mounted around the SUV so any vehicle near them is automatically scanned.
To counter that I actually recommend listening to Shatner doing "Common People", or really just about anything off of the "Has Been" album.

Don't worry, you'll frown once you run out of ammo.

Thank you for posting that, I had no idea it was that easy to become a blood marrow donor.
I'm thinking they are trying to get into the content creating business when what people come here for is news aggregating.
I guess they are hoping to be able to sell the content they create which is funny when their own customer base doesn't want to view it.
It's not the content, it is the manner in which it is presented.

No it's not heresy it is just completely wrong.
Have you ever taken a biology class?
The personality types who are most likely to do extensive modification to the device, are equally likely to provide their own support.
And the most likely to abuse a warranty by being careless in their modification since, hey if they fuck up, they can just send it in.

Is that random collection of words suppose to be some sort of derogatory remark?
If you are going to insult someone at least do it in a way that doesn't make you appear to be a blithering idiot.
