The title claims students are failing because of twitter, but almost the entire article claims that it's because they're not teaching grammar in schools. Way to understand what you're writing, numbnuts.
Bah, if I want to open a file with something other than the default app, I'll just right-click -> open with, done. Or start the program and go to file->open. Or drag the file to the program's icon. The creator codes just cause me problems. If I want to open a PDF file in a shared folder, what do I care that someone else prefers to open it with Adobe Reader? Most of the time I'd rather open it in Preview since it's far less of a steaming pile. The creator codes just seemed to be the OS not doing what I told it - I'd say, open all PDFs with Preview, and it would most of the time, but then sometimes it would go "surprise bitch! adobe reader!".
So if they're gone, good riddance.
In our system, we don't let the user set the priorities. We set them after we read their request. It's pretty obvious that "I can't print to this one particular printer, but I can print to three others" is a lot lower priority than "I can't open this document I need for a meeting in 20 minutes".
I've frequently heard it the other way, "I don't know anything about computers, so I'm not what you'd call 'computer illiterate'..." Apparently computers aren't the only thing they're illiterate in.
Yeah, well I've got a friend who's a fisherman, and he bears a herring.
I've also got a friend who's a pirate, and he wears an earring.
I could do this all day.
You've almost got a good idea there - have the waiting area seats match the plane's, or at least be numbered the same, and have people sit in their matching seat. Then they just move people into the plane in the seating order they're already in.

I set these up at my parent's house for a DVR with no WiFi - they do the trick and are easy to install - just plug n' play.
no, that was a 10" screen, they just had a 2' tall person demonstrating it.

"isn't as not as good". Yep. Sounds about right for an article criticizing spelling and grammar.
Read that as "Hubble Ultra Deep Fried"? I thought they were making cheese sticks in space.
You don't. The Internet never forgets, never forgives.
Never sleeps either. The internet waits.

Jesus is coming! Quick, look busy!
No, it runs Carol.
I'm getting tired of waiting, it's like they're NEVER going to get around to imploding the world.

Now we have a new weapon for the inevitable dolphin uprising.
There, fixed that for you.
I built a CMS for work that switches to swashbuckling theme for talk like a pirate day, so yeah, I don't see anything wrong with that.
no, you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.
Now where did I put that invisibility cloak? I know I set it down around here someplace...

Yeah, that's always bothered me about stuff like Bionic Worman - "Your new arm can lift 1100 pounds!"
Um, can her spine?
Now Apple's going to come out with a comic with better artwork, but with simpler story lines an fewer characters. And you'll have to buy it on iTunes.
"The guy"? I'm pretty sure there was more than one.
