Take people's kids away because they work at Wal Mart? That's right, asshole, every one of those Wal mart and McDonalds employees are on LINK (there is no such thing as food stamps) and would go hungry without it. Some people who work in those places live in homeless shelters, because they can't earn a living even though they work 40 hours a week! I'd be willing to bet you'd like to get rid of the minimum wage, too, wouldn't you?.
Oh, and to decrease your ignorance a little more (or not, your kind seldom listens), AFDC was abolished fifteen years ago. It was replaced with TANF -- the T stands for "temporary," has a two year limit, and is not an entitlement like AFDC was.
You might want to get your news from someone other than Rupert Murdoch once in a while, you'd be far less ignorant and look a hell of a lot less like a total asshole.
You know what those poor people are going to do if you take away their LINK? They're going to break into your house and steal your shit and sell it for food money. Think about that, dumbass.
I don't think it's a matter of economics, it's a matter of ignorance. A lot of guitarists I know who couldn't afford a Marshall use a small tube amp with a mic in front of it feeding a higher powered solid state amp. It doesn't sound as good as a Marshall, but a lot better than Line 6.
They got rid of food stamps years ago, where have you been? Oh, right, you don't know any poor people. Let me hand you a few clues.
They use LINK cards now, there are no stamps. Most people with LINK cards have full time jobs, often two of them. The poor aren't poor because they're lazy, they're poor because YOU refuse to pay a living wage, Mr 1% (or idiot tea partier, I don't know which). Raise the minimum wage so 40 hours of work will feed a family of four and there will be few people in need of food stamps; the handicapped and those unable to find work would be the only ones receiving them.
Your "let the children starve" attitude is disgusting. Your "let people go hungry so McDonalds and Wal Mart can make even more shitloads of money" is even more disgusting.
I certainly hope you don't consider yourself a Christian, but I fear you do; most right wing assholes claim to be Christian. If you are, YOU are one of the hypocrites the man you call your lord and savior trash talked to and about. Unless you're athiest or Muslim, read your damned bible.
Literate people give a shit, because that kind of ignorance slows reading speed and hampers communication. Plus, stupid mistakes like that make you look like you have Down's syndrome. Literate people expect professionals (as the editors are, since they're paid) to be able to know when and when not to use an apostrophe.
My cat is really stupid. She moves her lips when she reads! I doubt she gives a shit, but I do.
That would be the dumbest thing you could possibly do. Ever hear of Ruby Ridge?
As Sean Connery's character said in The Untouchables, you don't bring a knife to a gunfight. You don't fight a military tank with a.22. Are you wearing Kevlar? The cops are.
Why the fuck would MS integrate Adobe's competitor to their own Silverlight platform into their own OS?
Because almost every radio station and TV stream uses Flash. To not have Flash on a computer severely cripples its web browsing. If Windows stopped supporting Flash, you'd see a hell of a lot of people either buying a Mac or installing Linux. In short, it would cost them tons in sales.
Samsung could loose all its mobile income tomorrow
Why would they want to set it loose?
You and what army of hipsters who are to worried
I certainly hope English isn't your native language; doing it once means you just made a typo, doing it twice means you're ignorant. If you aren't a native speaker, the ignorance is understandable; I'd make far worse mistakes writing in Spanish. If you are not a native speaker, here are a few helpful hints: To: "We're going to the store. Too: We're going, too. Two: We went two times. To lose is to not have what you had, to loose is to set something free on purpose. Sometimes a misspelling completely changes what a sentence says. Dew knot truss yore spill checker.
No. If you call hacking a crime, then it is a crime for the government too.
Think for a second -- murder is illegal, but war is not. What is war, but mass murder on a huge scale? A thing is illegal when the government says it is, and illegal when the government says it is. That's how the world works, kid.
No, but you should worrry about using the Axix extension. If they're going to make a mistake that incredibly stupid, you'd be a fool to use it. What other gaping holes did they leave open?
You kids crack me up! You don't need tubes for AM radios. The first transistor radios were AM only. Transistors and tubes do the same things, but in different ways and have different characteristics.
I find it odd that MP3 players don't have AM/FM radios in them, although I did see one cell phone that did.
I'd rather be stabbed in the spleen than give money to a lawyer.
Then you'd better hope that you never go bankrupt, get sued, or get divorced. If the other party has a lawyer and you don't, you're going to get your ass handed to you.
Before you get digital holograms you're going to need a hell of a lot better screen resolution (at least as good as film) to display them. And the screen will need an LCD display backlit by lasers.
Anybody coming into office with the worst economy in over hallf a century and fighting two wars isn't going to do miricles. It took Bush eight years to raise gasoline from a buck five to four fifty, get our country attacked by ignoring the pervious President's warnings and his own FBI agents' warnings. You expected Obama to clean up the mess Bush left in half the time it took Bush to make that mess?
Obama's not a bad President. His only problem is he's not a great President. He's better than half the Presidents that have served in my 60 year life.
I doubt he'll see your response, as he's not here to read or comment, just to spam. He probably has a bot scraping the net for places to put his spam that most likely is all automated.
Now I have to look for the parodies, some of them are hilarious.
You can, at least in your mind's eye. Just read science fiction and you ARE on the moon! I love the rover's name, Asimov is my favorite author. They should have named the probe that visited Vesta last year "Asimov", someone probably was too superstitious (imagine the flak if it had been marooned). Heinlein would have been a better name (The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress).
I'm surprised there weren't rovers on the moon twenty years ago.
I haven't gotten ketchup in a glass bottle for a long, long time. These days they're plastic squeeze bottles and you can squeeze out as much as you want as fast as you want.
Also . . . I can get EVERYTHING via my iPhone, as long as it doesn't use flash.
My old feature phone could show YouTube videos. You're not going to be watching any TV or listening to much radio on your iPhone without installing apps for each one, because almost all the video and radio station streams use Flash.
But my old phone won't properly display many HTML web sites because they misuse CSS; there are no scroll bars on the phone.
And WTF? Obama does something to cheer about and you still bash him! He's by no means a great President, but he's not bad, and he's a hell of a lot better than the last bastard that lived in the White House (who was arguably the worst President in history and certainly the worst in my lifetime). And from what I've seen of Romney, Obama's a better President than Romney will be if he gets elected.
This isn't 2001, when phones required customized web-content to display it properly
"There's an app for that!" I'd rather visit a properly designed site any day on on any device rather than have to install an app to view it.
No, he raises a good point. Way too many people just shrug and say "you can't write a bug-free program". It's like being brought up in a leaky shack, you'll have the attitude that a poorly constructed shack is "just the way it is." Without all those poorly constructed shacks, and all the people using them who have the attitude "there's nothing we can do about it" DDoSes would be much harder to pull off id Windows wasn't so easy to break into. Remember, the botnet is made up of Windows PCs.
The problem is Yahoo's track record is poor when it comes to updating their products.
IMO, Yahoo's problem is bloat. Our work computers are getting pretty long in the tooth, more than three tabs open with Yahoo News bogs the poor old thing down badly. I've never seen a well designed Yahoo product (that said, I prefer their email to Gmail. Gmail locked out my mcgrew@gmail.com account because there was a typo when I signed up, they took it away when I tried to change passwords).
As to updating products, I think way too many products "update" too much, simply changing the interface around so you need to relearn it, with few or no added useful features to the "upgrade".
An "upgrade" that degrades performance is hardly an upgrade at all.
To "incorrect". I'm referring to the summary, not your post. First, vaccuum tubes never went away. Look inside a Marshall guitar amp and you'll see tubes. Grandma's old CRT TV has a tube; the CRT is a tube. Second, "the predecessors of the silicon transistor" isn't inaccurate but may be misleading, as the two operate in completely different ways and have completely different strengths and weaknesses. Heat and overvotage will kill a transistor, but won't bother a tube at all. OTOH, tubes are physically fragile -- drop a tube and it breaks. Throw a transistor against the wall and it's fine. Tubes are analog amplifiers, transistors are ultra high speed switches that need additional components to become amplifiers.
I have a Gmail account and a G+ account, but I rarely check my Gmail and haven't been to G+ in months. I like Google's search because I get better results. If Bing gave better results than Google I'd switch like I switched to Google from Infoseek.
This reminds me of Life Support, especiallt about your brain defining who you are. That episode was a perfect illustration of this topic. (The linked synopsis isn't very good, I'm afraid).
Well, I do agree that the worst is when an application makes you continually switch between keyboard and mouse. MS Access is terrible about this, one should never need to touch the mouse to program, or in a word processor or text editor. Likewise, you should never need the keyboard in a graphics program. My beef is "mouse elbow" that I often get when I spend too much time in front of the computer.
