    I dont care to enter this discussion, I just offered some "insider" information. GP made a ridiculous statement about pay, and pay alone, so I gave a story saying otherwise. GP said nothing outside of pay.

    I dont care to cite websites, as people have told you to look at the very own you mentioned, but i'll add this.

    As an employee of a TLA in the DC area, I can assure you that I make about 20k less than if I worked for a contractor. My roommate who works for SAIC, who is 2 years younger, with 3 years less experience and no masters confirms this with his paycheck. His benefits suck compared to mine, and I get a lot more leave and flexibility, but there is a reason I am renting a room in a 25 year old's condo. They make the money, govies dont.

    What? Are you serious? A service you agreed to use and play by the rules has deemed you have cheated and is allowing you to continue using said service just as long as everyone knows you have cheated.

    There is nothing wrong with this, as MS does have cause to terminate his account. Try cheating in other online games and see if your password works the next day.

    in sweden the laws are such that if a woman removes her consent of sex during intercourse you must stop. It is a he said she said rule. but the law favors the woman. I didn't write the laws but at least I am smart enough to know them.

    Thats a pretty scary rule to be honest . . . .

    As an American, I am curious to hear the advantages of a jury. GP is correct in the sense that lawyers work less and less on presenting their client in the best light and more on playing the jury as saps.

  18. Re:So Naive. What's the Game Plan, Mark? on Can Zuckerberg Leap the Great Firewall of China? · · Score: 1

    I disagree with the sentiment that Zuck will balk under the money pressure. Well, THAT kind of money pressure.

    Hate him, love him, or fall somewhere in the middle, I really cant argue that he has made many financial missteps. And if wants to open his pocketbook to 1.7 billion more people, conceding a few things may not be the worst of ideas. Its not like Google couldnt have made it work, they just wouldnt play by the host country's rules. How is that being put in their place? And how is it different when the US puts Google in its place?

    Ofcourse, and I fully agree that for the dedicated, they will always have their specialized tools. My roommate swears up and down his iPhone is the best thing since sliced bread (and its nice for what it can do) but on the same time he has a professional camera, which I understand

    But my problem is this: he has a Garmin when he can use the GPS on his phone. I recall the GPS being $10 a month for AT&T a while back, but with free updates for life, using his iPhone as his GPS would economically the better idea. The things people use casually, mp3, gps, etc should be condensed into what you use heavily, phone or whatever, and when you want/have to use something special, camera/PS4,5,13 you can always have that there.

    Wow, you guys are missing the point.

    No sh1t a smartphone is limited! But no one wants to lug around a phone, a PC, a camera, mp3 player, a pager, kindle and a PS3!! Hello! Thats why its practical to buy a $300 phone in lieu of a nice phone/camera/etc. Im honestly bewildered that this concept is such a surprise or if all the dissenters have Sony stock.
