Yes, but the whole point of Pandora is the 'music genome project' engine. I like being introduced to songs with similar attributes, not just of a similar genre or era. Seriously, I told Pandora I liked certain Jack Johnson songs and was introduced to artists that I would have never normally explored (i.e. heavy metal bands doing acoustic numbers or world music artists).
I can see how the mania would be potentially useful for harnessed. But the depression too? So when one wants to hang themselves in the garage or just stay in bad for days, how is that 'awesome'? Are you in a mania right now?
I agree that getting big-fed involved is a bad idea. But anything that encourages electronics makers to use pressed cornmeal for gadget housing is fine by me. And you know those 'recycle your electronics' places are mostly just a feel-good business right? There is absolutely no regulation or anything else that prevents them from taking all those heaps of scrap where ever it's cheapest (even if it's a landfill).
If it's taking someone (in the US) "several hours" to download 2+ GB with their "average broadband connection", then they don't have an "average broadband connection". There is some debate about what the average broadband speed actually is in the US, but even the low end is 1.9mbps (that was from an Ars Technica back in 2007 - surely it's faster by now). Let's take the midrange, again from back in 2007, of 4.8mbps. That makes a 2.3GB download take little more than one hour. Even if congestion slows ones speed by half, that only about 2.5 hours.
Yeah and the best part of the scenery are all the 'don't drink and drive' memorial signs that are placed in bunches at every corner because of the massive, massive numbers of DUI related deaths. I visit Kayak Point (within the Tulalip reservation) regularly and always notice these when driving through tribal lands.
Was hearing the term 'crotch of her panties' repeated copious times by Nina Totenberg when reading the SCOTUS arguments a few weeks ago. Seriously, I think was the raciest thing ever broadcast on NPR. Very surreal.
Yikes. Calm down buddy! I was just making a point that the Iranian government was blatantly giving people something 'extra fun' to entice them from speaking up for themselves en masse. Imagine if, on election day, the American government had a 'one day only free XBox giveaway'. Of course you would have to skip the electoral process to participate (doesn't really apply because of the absentee concept, but you get the idea).
I made a bit of a flippant remark to be sure, but I hardly indicated a 'hated' of any government. I think you need to take a look in the mirror when it comes to inferring hatred. You clearly have some rage issues that need some attention.
First data is created and deemed private. It's then encrypted to prevent unauthorized people from seeing the private data. But other people want to analyze the data, without actually seeing it. Kind of like how it's good to know the income demographics of a city, but not to know the personal income of every person in said city. Never mind the fact that someone had to see the information at some point to render the statistics. Unless of course the results are never audited for accuracy. But's that's another story.
Anyway, so then we put our private data on someone else's server (we call it a 'cloud' - isn't that nice?) and they can't look at it because it's encrypted. But they will run analysis on the data, which requires a special tool to or something....look - all's I know is I get's me my KPI's for my board meetin'. Who really cares if some guys personal health records are sniffed by some computer...whoa! Jim has ass herpes?! I am so updating this on the Interwebz!
Taking a lesson from the American government it looks like. Keep giving people food and entertainment and maybe they forget how their rights are being trampled on.
I will hold you to that. I will message you in 6 months so you can eat crow. Also, Ford/mortgaged/ their assets they did not sell them. And it was done, as their own investor documents (from 3 years ago) say, "to prepare for the anticipated economic downturn".
And what 'depression' are you talking about? As yet I don't see people lining up by the thousands for soup or mobbing day labor sites for one-day jobs. Marginally high unemployment and thousands of people losing their retirement sucks, but it does not a depression make. Even the poorest among us is not starving due to lack of food or money.
They share similar skillsets and mentalities, but as a wise man once said: "Geeks get it done". I think he mean that a nerd is a geek that has not actually achieved anything noteworthy. Or that a geek is a nerd or has.
there are so few options for men for birth control
Say it with me now: Men don't give birth.
Now, effective male contraception would be great. But since the male repro system is active (i.e. 'the pitcher') while a womans' is passive (i.e. 'the catcher'), stopping the passive side is the most efficient.
Why so much vitriol? Apparently, in your opinion, one actually does need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. Here is brief that might give you the pedantic opium you need so badly.

It's a website. Are you saying that it's being filtered out in Canada?
Yeah but hillbillies want to be called 'Sons of the Soil', but it's never going to happen....
That was kind of a non-sequiter. Was this person Dorothy Parker? Because she's the one who said that originally...

"Depression" of "manic depression"(aka bipolar disorder)? These are two very different things.
I don't eat and I can't sleep, but I got the cleanest house on the street! Oh Meth! Oh Meth!
Well, not to put too fina a point on it, but "DVD" is an acronym consisting of three letters, not a word at all. So maybe that doesn't count?
Since there are several concepts/protocols that like to call themselves "SFTP", which one are you referring to? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sftp

Not if he was looking over your right shoulder! ZING!

You mean like Progress? Since OE10 Webspeed errors have dropped off considerably... http://web.progress.com/openedge/webspeed-worshop.html
Got it. Paid by employer.
Got it. Paid by government.
Got it. Paid by employer.
You mean like if I'm disabled? Got it. Paid by government.
Got it. At least up to age 18, but then they are not children anymore. Paid by government.
All this and, since I work for a non-profit, I don't even pay the Social Security tax. Suck on that rest of the world!
mmMMmm...Delicious Apple Fritters.
In short:
Nerds=bad
Geeks=good
They share similar skillsets and mentalities, but as a wise man once said: "Geeks get it done". I think he mean that a nerd is a geek that has not actually achieved anything noteworthy. Or that a geek is a nerd or has.
I have heard there is something like a 60% tax rate. Is that true?

Really? I can't wait to click on all of these links. /sarcasm
