The flesh surrenders itself, he thought. Eternity takes back its own.

because that's generally how anyone horrible at their job seems to get that position in the first place. They hide out or "follow the rules" long enough for someone to leave or there is simply no one else to fill the role.
In many of my anecdotes as a contractor, its seems the last people standing in a company (the primary shit stain of sales or the senior dickwad of software) are almost always the most worthless people that just new how to hide well....the good people bailed or were blamed and fired long before.
I completely agree, the whole industry is horrible and has in many ways (whether intentionally or not) altered even society standards and customs to the detriment of everyone.
I would go so far to say that state surveillance/black ops stuff and the advertising industry share more or less the same code, methods, apps, tools and ethos...so what does that tell you?
I originally thought the red account was supposed to be add free...but it's not. It's not too bad, but if you supplement youtube for tv like I do, it can get a little annoying....it's like hulu making you pay an extra 4 bucks on top of the 8 for ad free viewing.
I get it and understand everyone wants their due, and I personally would rather just cough up a few extra coin than watching any ads period. That said....it still irks me that they are now starting tiered pricing rather than just free and paid. Like now you have to pay for the extra special premium account to not have to deal with stupid ads.
100% positive there is a correlation of those unhappy people being single vs non-single (even more so being childless and single vs families)...which is what facebook whoring seems mostly about.
I quite in 2010 and never looked back. To depressing if you're forever alone for a long period of time...even if you're happy for the people around you.
For a mini-series that was never really intended to be spun into a tv show I thought the social commentary was actually pretty good. Fire and water was the high point for that series but when they got stuck on earth I really started to tune out, it just wasn't as interesting I guess.
299 isn't bad, but the games aren't there on launch day. I'll find it used before the end of the year and take my time about it.
In nintendo's defense, I have a feeling that this will be the last console I buy. Both scorpio and the next playstation are over glorified 4k pc's at this point...and I already have a kick ass 4k pc with vr, windows games, steam games and linux games.
Nintendo is the last maker of what I would consider a "true console" rather than a complete entertainment solution (ala a media center/media pc)....and I don't count steam box, its a pc.
they are talking about using it like a taxi service.
I could see designated skylanes for a limited sectors and city departments like fire and ambulance services, along with taxies. I can actually see this being insurable if its limited in that capacity. And maybe just like planes if you complete a certification you can you have your own private version but im guessing the inital cost would be so prohibitive that not everyone is going to be able to do it, just like a commercial pilot's license.
With designated skylanes that avoid densely populated areas I don't see how flying cars are that much of a fantasy. If you don't follow the rules I could see an emergency override to automatically safely land and shut down by the computer. Which doesn't sound to ridiculous if you're several miles from the nearest house and you have 20 seconds to comply or something.
These wont be traveling through a city but rather around it.
This is such a ridiculous argument, what stops the government from buying your stats from ad companies (a 3rd party dev shop most likely)? What are you going to do? Tell the government they can't buy information anyone else can buy?
I just don't understand the logic of FB users.....you can't have it both ways.
Well, let's not delude ourselves. You can use it without cash but it's certainly not free, their revenue comes from somewhere and it's not all from gold members.

the japanese worked on a microwave beam weapon in WW2, from gizmondo:
"According to documents confiscated by the U.S. military after the war, work on a Japanese death ray began as early as 1939 at laboratories in Noborito. To that end, the researchers developed a high-powered magnetron that could generate a beam of radiation. Physicist Sinitiro Tomonaga's team developed a magnetron measuring 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter with an output rated at 100kW. It's doubtful, however, that this technology could have worked like the death rays of science fiction. Calculations suggested that the beam, if properly focused, could have killed a rabbit over a distance of 1,000 yards, but only if the rabbit stayed perfectly still for at least 5 minutes."
What gets me, is people that get there underpants all in a twist over "creepers" getting their phone number online........then they plunk family photo's, past schools, past relations, eating habits, geo-location data, moments of zen on the toilet, and just about every bit of trivial/non-trivial info they can muster........to some nebulous company online....
Uh...I find that difficult to believe....considering it looks like a giant armored webcam with a microphone. Its normally sitting right on their chest so it's kinda hard to miss...
Anyway it doesn't matter, if it's helping out then I say right on.
I live right by a freight hub station and a wal-mart warehouse in BFE. While everyone else lives like a rat in a hole, I'm going to build my own flourishing metropolis and rule with an iron but fair fist. Hehe...

I think you need to dial it down to a 5 and just watch indie movies....

sometimes the faceless internet asks us questions and we answer back with clicks.
I do the same thing, except I have the song ~smooth operator by sade playing in the background when im in "secure" mode.
death....to the stranger.

Pretty much what I was thinking. Fewer complaints because they know they would be in the wrong....
Nice! thanks, I'm up for re-newal in a month too.
