If Russia or its proxies did not shoot down the civilian airliner, why did Russia veto a UN resolution to fully and openly investigate the incident? If Russia is innocent they should have been happy to have an investigation to prove their innocence.
To be fair, even if Russia weren't responsible for MH17, they might not want UN investigators poking around and finding all kinds of other stuff that they've been doing in the area. Being innocent of this particular crime doesn't necessarily make them innocent.
AT&T and T-Mobile are the big GSM carriers in the United States. Which bands do they use, so we can compare them against the bands compatible with the phone?
I think T-Mobile uses the two of those four that are used in Europe, and AT&T uses the other two, but I may be a few years behind on my information. A quick search on Google says AT&T uses 850 and 1900. A phone that supports all 4 bands should work on both AT&T and T-Mobile.
If there was no limitation on the number of taxis, the market would be flooded with taxi drivers and their wages would plummet (although that would be good for the customers). It would also create massive traffic jams. So it's not 100% about the money, maybe just 30%.
No "if" and "would" needed. The reason the limitations were created was because of the problems that did happen when the streets were flooded with taxi drivers.
There were X selections, of which humans agreed with the AI Y times. It's been a while since my last physics or calculus class, but I'm pretty sure that since X and Y are both integers, you can calculate Y/X to pretty much any precision you want.
I never said anything about whether or not I agree with people using ad blockers (it's why I explicitly said that I wasn't). I don't blame you at all for blocking obnoxious ads.
My only point was that "cost" as a verb (not "cost" as a noun, which is how you're using it) is commonly used to mean failure to gain/win something. A lot of other people here made the same mistake.
What did I read incorrectly? The phrase you quoted was "cost online publishers", and then you talked about not getting some amount of revenue is not a cost. My point was simply that "cost" was not being used to mean "expenditure".
Because this was a patent case, the case would not be heard by a jury but by one federal judge.
Plenty of other people will correct you on everything else in that paragraph, so I figured I would take this one. Patent cases are frequently heard by juries. Perhaps you've heard of a couple famous ones lately where juries awarded Apple $X billion.
You might want to get your information from a source with a clue.
"That bad pass cost them the game." Or, in a more Slashdot-friendly version, "Billy's mother forced him to leave the basement, which cost them the game."
From my own experience, about 20 years ago I was setting up an exhibit at a tradeshow in New York. Most of the exhibitors were big companies who paid for union labor to put together their displays. I was a one person operation and had one tiny booth in a large hall with one table covered by a tablecloth. All I had to do was drape the tablecloth and set up my flyers and inventory--nothing elaborate. The table I had ordered from the convention service was at an angle near the entrance to the booth. I started to move the table towards the back of the booth--about six feet total--and you would have thought I was starting a nuclear war. Several of the union staff ran over yelling that I wasn't allowed to move anything and I had to wait for an authorized laborer to move the table for me. I had to wait over two hours until the floor boss had someone come over and move my table five feet. Like you, I had no idea what I had done and was baffled by the response. I could have been out of there in ten minutes if I had flipped them some cash...
Maybe I'm just a dirty commie that doesn't want to think anything bad about unions, but my first thought was that the people running the convention were scared by the liability threat. If you even pulled a muscle while moving the table, they might end up facing a multi-million dollar lawsuit.
The real trick was doing it at the right time; when battery technology had made it affordable.
A lot of people forget or ignore the fact that this applies to Apple as well (and almost certainly to numerous other manufacturers). Apple didn't invent touch screens or radios, and the performance of CPUs and memory had been increasing along with the size and power consumption decreasing. Apple's major accomplishment was recognizing that all of the technology had advanced to the point that they could assemble a device that people wanted to buy at a price that people were willing to pay. If Apple hadn't done it when they did, someone else most likely would have done it, and not much later.
I can think of other applications for changing someone's dose without them being aware of it. In fact, you could slip them a custom printed pill that looks just like the rest of the pills in their bottle.
Extra Credit: consider the implications of custom 3D printing Drug A in Drug B's clothing. (Pill for Drug A looks like it is a pill for Drug B.)
Your unstated assumption is that access to these printers is the only thing stopping people from doing illegal things like murdering a patient in a hospital. I am not convinced that your assumption is correct.
That's just it, it's NOT much different than conventional compounding, so what's the big attraction? It will have the same regulatory problems, the same liabilities, etc. But it WILL cost more and add complexity, so there's that in it's "favor".
The key question is the reliability and accuracy of this printing method. If there are fewer mistakes with this method than there are with current methods, the liability problem should decrease.
Yes, I know that he died in 2013, but he was such a prolific director, that he would never let the fact that he is dead get in the way of directing yet another film.
Well, Raise Dead is only a 5th level spell, so it shouldn't be too hard to get him.
My Computer -> Advanced System Settings -> Environment variables....
The same, tiny, unsizable, virtually unusable dialog box that has been there, untouched, since Windows 95 (at least).
If it's still there in Windows 10? I dunno. I might give up and go back to VMS, or AmigaDOS or something.
Anything that has windows that can't be resized or text that can be selected/copied/pasted should result in some developer being put in front of a firing squad.
I don't know the situation in the US, but in the UK, the figures show that unvaccinated kids visit the doctor a *lot* less than vaccinated kids
And as we all know, correlation equals causation. There's no way this could possibly be because parents that don't get their kids vaccinated don't take them to see the doctor for other routine care.

“...those terms exist to protect people’s privacy and safety,”
So Facebook thinks that it's okay for a Terms of Use page to be the only thing protecting people's privacy and safety?

Literally no-one on this thread will be who they claim to be. Not even me.
Oh yeah? Well, I am the real Slim Shady.

even though my drink of choice is Mountain Dew and Dr Pepper.
And I thought both of those were bad enough by themselves.

In case you haven't seen my earlier corrections for other people, yes, the word "cost" can mean "cause the loss of".
Yes, "cost" can also mean "cause the loss of".
"That bad pass cost them the game." Or, in a more Slashdot-friendly version, "Billy's mother forced him to leave the basement, which cost them the game."
Using the word "cost" to mean "cause the loss of" is perfectly acceptable English.

Clue didn't suck because they didn't try to make it a serious murder mystery. It was a hilarious movie with some big-name comedic actors.
"The Man" to do the D&D movie should be Jess Franco: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Windows 11 directed by J.J. Abrams, though, isn't looking too promising.. especially the rumors that the twist might be "Where did my data go?"
Wasn't Data being missing already the plot of one of them?
Fuck you, Microsoft shill!
You, my friend, have way too much time on your hands.
How long does it take you to press Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V?
I hope they don't toss the editors out on the street!
