Nintendo is looking to step up it's hardware efforts in response to criticism that the Wii U's capabilities were notably lower than those of the PS4 and the XBox One...
Really? Why do people always jump to this conclusion? In the history of Nintendo, they make what they make for their target demographic, and don't try competing against Sony and MS. This shouldn't need revisiting EVERY TIME someone releases a console.
That's because every change to a nuclear plant requires an act of congress. I'm serious.
In 2011-2012, ASME re-defined SA105 rolled steel. Arbitrarily, and the change was nonsensical. Millions of dollars worth of steel being used in in construction of Vogtle was suddenly no longer useable, and the design requirements for aspects of the plant required SA105 steel that was no longer possible to forge.
Vendors requested deviation to a superior steel to meet the delivery requirements, but WEC had to get congressional approval, since it deviated from the design plan.
Every ASME change, every NRC change, every shift in political tides that changes anything in the nuclear world in turn causes massive ripples, extraordinary costs, and delays. Nuclear doesn't work because the NRC, ASME, EPA, and D.C. make sure it's too expensive, over-regulated, and shift requirements throughout construction and operation.
For many people, a shower is relaxing. Quiet time of solitude, sometimes the only time of the day to clear your head while cleansing your body, and that needs more than 5 minutes. 5 minute showers are to freshen up in the morning before work or after working out.

I have the same problem. I used a karaoke version of a song to write and record a parody of something unrelated, uploaded to youtube for purely entertainment value without commercial value or ads, and had it taken down.
A peer and I once made the same comparison. We called ourselves digital maintenance men, because by and large that's what it is.
I've never worked for a company that had a significant manufacturing component, but I kind of wonder how the blue/white collar split works there for the people who setup, maintain and manage seriously complicated factory systems. I think they might have been called millwrights at one time.

I do work for a company that has a significant manufacturing component. Craftsmen, Millwrights, Machinists, Welders, Operators (CNC/Lasers), report to Cell Leaders responsible for their area of the shop. That's the blue collar line. Cell leaders report to their operations manager, who reports to the plant manager. In parallel, materials management/inventory, engineering all report to the plant manager, with the lowest levels of those functions being blue collar (except engineering).
You have the mentality of a peasant, now let me tell you as insultingly and snarkily as I can why my shit doesn't smell bad...
I see - you don't have a CPA or a tax professional minimize your tax exposure. You donate extra funds to the IRS in your generosity. You want big businesses to replicate your attitude. Good for you!
Personally, I don't like giving up what I've earned to a government that has proven at every turn to be terribly incompetent, corrupt, and incapable of financial responsibility. I hold no ill feelings towards other people (include boards of directors) who feel the same.
You keep riding your high horse though, and prance about. Or go back to your Occutard bullshit.
Nice little tax dodge we give away to them, huh? Eh, whatever, I guess we're all okay with it. It's not like this would ever be an election issue or anything. Certainly not in this cycle
You can mod this offtopic if you want, but it was at the top of the summary, so I figure somebody is interested in the abyss where our money disappears
It's not a tax dodge if it's legal. Also, MS and all the other companies doing it are being good corporate stewards. I want that money back into the U.S. as much as anyone else. I bet it could do tremendous things for our economy. But as it stands under current tax code: -MS brings $92 billion back to the U.S. -IRS taxes $32 billion of it away from the in corporate tax incoming to the U.S. -MS pays the remaining $60 billion into their stock buyback / dividends / debt program. -IRS taxes $12 billion of it as capital gains tax from the people who receive it. -The remaining $48 billion get spent by MS Shareholders. -Sales Tax, Income Tax, etc eat the money on the other side.
I sympathize. With the U.S. government double and triple taxing the same money, taxing it forward and backwards, taxing it every time it changes hands - I'd leave my earnings overseas too.
If you want internet and the outdoors, you have simpler options:
1. Work in your backyard. 2. Knock out a wall in your home office, exposing it to the elements. 3. Redecorate part of your home to synergize with nature.
I suspect many of the other dating websites are similar. I met my wife thru one. However she had hundreds of men to pick from. I had maybe a few dozen to pick from.
Congratulations on your marriage! When are you planning on meeting her in real life?
Maybe start by telling us which jobs women and minorities SHOULD NOT be employed in?
That would be (and includes non-minorities and men) any position that was filled due to racial requirements, diversity requirements, bigoted hiring managers, or affirmative action (IE, more racism).
Racism by definition is the belief that people are different because of the color of their skin. Bigotry is when you do something about it.
In fact, many people are not interested in buying a home. When you move from career to career, or take promotions within a company that move you around a state or country - you don't buy and sell a house every 2-3 years, you lease. When you change careers, or get a family and move to a new place - the smart buyer leases for a year so they can get a feel for a town on their own, and figure out where you want to build / buy.
Or - instead of having a choice between a paid service plan, or a non-paid service plan with no registration....
Perhaps there's a middle ground where people can register a phone to their name and service for zero dollars, with the phone only capable of making 911 calls. There's no reason that donated phones can't be attached to a new owner.
So the lady should have left her company issued work cell phone at her office after her work hours when she clocked out if she wasn't comfortable with the required software on her company issued phone.

See, you had to go there.
Now everyone needs to start wearing a condom when they're fucking NOBODY.

P.S. Hashtag activism.

Wasn't there just a slashdot article a couple weeks ago about how Italian government is switching from LibreOffice back to MS?
I don't know what happened, but every time I read an illiterate comment, I look at the poster expecting to see that joe_dragon guy.
You all modded me flamebait, and not 12 hours later...here's the next story!

I wonder if there is correlation?

Not everyone is trying to buy a home.
In fact, many people are not interested in buying a home.
