PS: how long before Firefox becomes a completely bug-free and highly secure version of Netscape Navigator?
It becomes more so bug-free with every new release. That's kind of the point of turning it into Open Source. It can be 'kept alive' by anybody who wants to stay involved.
You can't monopolize electricity. It's much more fungible than gasoline. If there are people who need electricity to operate their car, somebody else will make it available.
Physical Voting Machines means they had physical access.
Yeah. Those weird old League of Womens Voters people who volunteer to hang out at the polling places are gonna look at trenchcoat dude and not be suspicious. Right.
Ignoring the fact that Donald Trump didn't make Hillary run an illegal private email server that contained classified information.
You are forgetting the outrageous corrupt behavior she was covering up by running an illegal private email server.
The whole point in running the private email server was to keep her communications as Secretary of State out of the public record. She deliberately thwarted the Freedom of Information Act and destroyed historical records that should have ultimately ended up in the National Archives. Fifty years from now historians will be shaking their fist at the smug harridan.
Wow. An anonymous coward citing comments by an anonymous coward as 'his' own. Do you keep a database of your AC comments? How do you remember which ones are yours? Wouldn't it be easier just to log in?
After Apple fades, or evolves, I wonder what the complex will be used for?
'Harlem' in New York is an interesting historical example. It was built as high-priced housing for the upper class. When the upper class didn't move in, it was adopted by a racial minority. It's high quality construction, so it will last a long time.
This new Apple complex seems like it is high quality construction. What will it be used for 100 years from now, after Apple is just marketing history? Will the demographics of the area have been changed? Will it be a dispensary and shelter for homeless people? Will the rich have moved in and hardened it to make it into a fortress/housing complex? Will it be the evil headquarters for some villains?
There is also probably a 'better, alternative' canopener that I can use. And the soda straws at McDonalds are inferior, and I should carry my 'superior' straws along with me to use instead.
You people who live in your little world where your own, personal desktop machine is the only one you ever have to sit down at and use. That hour of customization you do on any machine you are going to use makes you feel superior and techy, eh?
If they had taken 'coding' instead of algebra in high school, they'd have forgotten it since then. Sadly, the truth is it doesn't matter what people study in HS, they forget it quickly unless it directly applies to their job afterwards.
I recently went back to a Bell 2500 desk phone on the bedside stand. The newer, more fangled phone I was using there has a speakerphone button on the corner. The cat kept walking over the phone and taking the phone 'off hook.'
Added benefit of the 2500: if an intruder breaks in at night, I can brain him with the handset.
A single cow burger just means the cow it was made of was unmarried. It's an important consideration if you're worried of being gored at the burger stand by an enraged bull in mourning.

It's almost as bad as if Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Toyota and Honda had special stations that only worked with their cars.
That wouldn't really be a problem for the bigger auto makers. It would be a value-add and people could make their choices based on it.
Flash died because Flash died. Trying to imply Apple was a major factor is an error.

It was Hillary's turn. Just like it was Bob Dole's turn.
Who didn't see it coming?
Sadly enough, Gore Vidal was simply a gadfly.

What about the Right To Arm Bears.
Shouldn't everybody be allowed to be part of the well regulated militia?
Hey, Dr. Adder becomes reality.
There are plenty of sausage makers nestled into the bureaucracy of the military.
That would be somebody with a birth defect who represents 0.01% of the population. It isn't realistic to base policies on extremely tiny minorities.

You are being THE fucking pedant troll on this thread, aren't you?
Who plays that part of the young girl Lisa whose father Steve disowned and shunned her?
Praise Bob.

So, you're the musty old fuck making use of ten year old memes?
Howzabout you go out and get a job, then talk to a realtor about buying a place with a lawn.

Now put them on, because the timeclock is integrated into them, too.
Take a guess what part of the bull Red Bull is made out of.
