There was that part when the guy and girl are sitting together before he was about to go off and be a hero, and there was a sunset.... and they.... wait they didnt kiss even then? WTF that movie was terrible. I am envious of the cg guys though, looked like fun toys to design
One obvious and MUCH MUCH safer implementation. Would be a phone log, one that added a note beside the call if it occurred on a road. Jamming or blocking calls is stupid and dangerous.
Also, the british claim is hilarious, argentinas is clearly way too big. And Norway??? Do they think they should get it because maybe people will forget what pole they are from and be like suuure you can have it you guys already have lots of warm clothes. Personally I think they should dice the thing up by land mass globally and give every country a slice. Then we could do that cheesy thing where every country in the world is holding hands in a big ass circle.
Oh shit. What that taught me is that i should go to the south pacific ocean side of anartica. No one has even laid claim? I should claim like a 200x200m area and hope no government will bother challenging me over it for at least 100years.
The tool looks really REALLY powerful. They really need to change it so it can be more easily used by the noob though. I would even suggest that the links showing trends can be linked to. That way if you want to make a point in a debate you can point someone to your lensed construct. Or there can be sites that will list interesting correlations like in blogs or w/e. Here it would be VERY useful. If they make it a web-based system with no download it would be much much more powerful again. The only big problem I see is the implementation. Gathering so much info is hard not impossible but! following information as sites move and evolve will be impossible. I think they will need to be able to grab historical data as will as a sites own history... for example instead of linking to your own graph allow linking to google stocks or google trends. A lot of those reach back to the 70s which is more useful than the last 8mnths.
Basically they argue that it is the unis responsibility. Same as if i went to a friends house and dled mp3s hed be responsible. Which is stupid because it doesn't work that way for any other laws... If i steal a car and run someone down the owner wont get charged. Anyways the laws around this are all retarded.
Yes the governator was placed in one of the hardest states of the nation and hes actually done a semi-decent job. But everyone around him is corrupt, and the referendum system for EVERYTHING is insanely hard to deal with. People will always vote to have monkey butlers, free ferrarris and 3 day weekends but will never vote to raise taxes. People cannot CANNOT govern themselves, thats why we vote for reps. Even if most government officials suck more than the average person on the street who knows nothing to do with politics (see: arnold > most republicans) they are still WAY better than the mob.
5% of the total budget is a BIG HUGE deal and you could probably cut more than that anyways... If you also brought your healthcare over to the evil socialist ways like france or canada or pretty much any 1st world nation. That could save you another 5%. Baby boomers dying will lower SSI costs as will restructuring payouts. Maybe another 1% or 2% there. If you want more than that you are seriously grasping as my/your figures are superbly optimistic. A 12% drop in spending with a 5% increase in net taxation totally brings the us out of the 13% budget deficit you have. This will allow you to spend the rest paying off your debt. Though its worrying that 100BILLION a year means it'll still likely take a few hundred years to pay off. And the debt has increased 1.4trillion last year. And that was before the market crisis where promises were recently made for a 8trillion dollar bailout. Welllll I guess with a 100% cut in spending you could pay the debt in a mere 10 years! Assuming people all sent their money in to the pure volunteer ran government and the entire country didnt collapse in chaos... which it would. I dunno, Maybe you should just file for bankruptcy?
The point was they were advertising the speed of the product which was a total lie and they made it seem realistic. Its not like the slogan for blackberry is 'Blackberry Storm - it can magically fix neon lights from across the street' if it is I take it back. Plus the magic is not realistic... like why axe commercials aren't banned.
Uh their ad showed it to be 4x as good as it really is. If i went to wendys and got a 1/16th pounder i'd be pretty pissed. If on my resume I said I could build a bathroom to finished in 4hours they would likely be disappointed. Beyond that their speed was the WHOLE advertisement.
This is you: 'I used to be a crackhead and I was seriously addicted. This one time I stabbed a guy over 20$ for some blow. If I could get convicted for stabbing people I could have lost my job.' Good to hear you got over it but... being an asshole is not an excuse for being an asshole.
'the rights of criminals over the law abiding' If you define the guy shooting fleeing people in the back with a shotgun law abiding sure. Otherwise your statement doesnt hold up.

But thats different because apple doesnt do bad things. So they aren't really hiding what people are saying they are just bringing the truth forwards to more easily see. The two are totally unrelated.
Where were the 5% of obese people 10years ago? Obesity figures have doubled in the last 20years in the US. Japan has 10% the obesity figures that the US has. I'm sure 100years ago in countries like japan/korea obesity figures were well under.5% (though no studies were done at the time obviously). America is fat because they eat garbage and don't exercise same as in any other country. This ruling is total BS.

In canada we don't have nuclear waste.... CANDU reactors use the fuel til its all gone. Only in the US do you not actually use all the fuel.

I'd like to illustrate your point with superbly beautiful moving graphs! It is TED so you must click it.

It is relatively new. And it is a force of good. But it has much to improve. We shouldn't call for destruction of the EU but rather better mechanisms.
It is a police and secret service war. NOT a military war. Why this wasn't obvious to the government in the start is beyond me.

You are totally right. Next time that guy in the red civic cuts me off i'm going to drive him sideways across a freeway. People >>> Things.

Multiply all figures by 2 or 3. It is a government agency they are not going to be very efficient.
