Interestingly the trademark 'aspirin' (and the trademark 'heroin') was taken from Bayer AG and made generic as part of the war reparations from WWI. Outside of the major WW1 allied powers, 'aspirin' is still a trademark of Bayer.
We can retire hot grits, but Black Swan with Natalie Portman & Mila Kunis (with added emphasis on the '&') was 2010, so even with time dilation and accelerating meme entropy, a hot key link to the YouTube clip is not at all out of place on my desktop.
In Soviet Russia Conservatives Obama *you*. FTFY. Beowulf cluster of Hitlers. Step 4 - Profit. MyCleanPc you insensitive clod. Global warming. Intertubes. Nuke them from orbit.
If it was the History Channel, it would have just been leading questions: "Did aliens build the pyramids with the help of Bigfoot? Did Atlantis use the pyramids for time travel?"
Is the History Channel a sensationalist fringe tabloid thinly disguised as historical documentary?
They certainly have violations, which are below misdemeanors. Thats what speeding tickets and parking violations are. By making it specifically a violation, with a maximum fine of $1, supercedes any general application of higher charges.
And thats always the trick. As well as enforcement, which in this case will be almost impossible.
Perhaps empowering people to enforce for themselves: "to interfere with or damage a drone operating over your property or engaged in warrantless surveillence of your propertry, shall be a violation punishable by up to $1 for each occurence". Make it legal by making it illegal. Sort of a cheap drone-hunting license.
Yep GP had a few math issues
- Hindu cycle is 311.04 trillion (3.11 * 10^14).
- Came up with that ~2000 BC
- The Cattle Problem was Archimedes not Aristotle
- Solution to that is 7.76 * 10^206544
- Thats a few more cattle than years. Even if we convert it to nanoseconds.
- Years in the vishnu cycle is about the same oreder of magnitude as the number of nanoseconds in a year.
It might be in the epileptic plane (so its shaken and not stirred). I dont think anyone has an electric plane yet. Airbus might be considered an eclectic plane. Or perhaps you meant the ecliptic plane?
Just wondering, if the other party says the call may be recorded, does that mean its legal for me to record also? Seems fair that if they ask the question they are giving tacit approval for me to record.
If you are *truly* cynical and/or paranoid, one would almost think that GM set up the lawsuit to further enshrine precedent. Not hard to imagine GM lawyers getting a whiff that the RIAA might be contemplating action, so they find some poor underfunded schmucks to sue them first so they can smack them down hard and discourage well-funded schmucks.
Take my incandescent light bulbs, take my SUV, take my hour-long commutes (please!), and take my semi-comfy-62-degree home heating, but keep your f**king hands off my f**king Big Mac!
I will not argue but instead try to find common ground. Depending on the election cycle and the business sector, business sometimes favor the right and sometimes favor the left. Unions obviously favor the left by a substantial margin but they are not included in many statistics, which is either fair or unfair depending on your political leanings I guess. The differences are substantially smaller than either side would like to admit, and claims to the contrary seem to cherry pick the data or are patently false. From Politifact "The Democrats’ best edge was 55 percent to 45 percent in 2008, far from even a 2-to-1 margin. The Republicans’ best advantage was 59 percent to 41 percent in 2012".
Lets pick 2008 (or you pick a year I dont care), during which very roughly $1 Billion was donated to each party by "business". OpenSecrets shows close parity between parties going back 20 years or so. I dont understand the common assertion that Republicans get a billion dollars and are corporate lackeys, while Democrats get a billion dollars and they are not.
I hate both parties almost equally, though Ive come to believe Democrats hate me slightly more than Republicans (Im a middle aged middle class white guy that owns a business), even though I was literally kicked out of the Republican party for being too liberal (Im an atheist that's pro-choice pro-environment pro-gay-rights). So, Im asking honestly, how is my thinking flawed? What statistics am I overlooking that I should consider? Even if we disagree I want to understand what we are disagreeing about.
Even the most cursory review of campaign donation records would show that Democrats equally serve corporate overlords. Im sure its a subject of much hilarity and mirth among Democrats that you've wholly bought into this myth.
I still have my CP/M computer, twin 8" floppies, 64k memory, 4 mhz z80 processor. Every two years or so I fire it up just for fun, and it runs just fine. Agreed it shouldnt, but it does. And Wordstar runs just about as fast as the latest Word 2013. Not that I'd want to go back to those days, but there is no doubt in my mind it will outlive any computer and server in my office.
Exactly. The only chance to get a fair shake is to practice asymmetric warfare. Bury them with stuff it doesnt cost you much to file but costs them lots to defend, which is exactly what they do to you.

Take some Aspirin, too.

You want Dark Matter with that for a dollar more?

Not my idea - got it from this beat up a flag burner law.
... provided you can draft the laws right.

Wait, what? Firefly isnt coming back???
That must be insightful, I didnt understand a word of it.

Big. Really big. Sheets of graphene at say 5.3 angstroms thick (2*10^-8). Wait, what was your point again?

Bonus points for an obscure yet relevant Firefly reference!
Yep. Or at least the ones I know do.
