It would probably fall under anti-competitive practices law, if you can show that the reduced pricing is intended to drive competitors out of business.
A really really bad choice of day for a consumer promotion. It certainly won't work where I live.
It will work just fine in the U.S., unless there's a critical mass of racism and/or Communist scare. If television is anything to go by, the best time to purchase a new car is either Martin Luther King's birthday, Memorial Day, or Labor Day.
Maybe I wasn't clear there. I meant that most people in the US who are centrists are called socialists or communists because politics in the US have moved so far to the right. They aren't actually socialists, they only seem to be when viewed from the far right. Truly far left politicians are very rare, if not practically non-existent, in the US.
The two-party system is another red herring. In fact, the two party system doesn't make things worse, it makes things better than parliamentary systems, because it forces the parties to move to the center.
Reality suggests otherwise. The United States has two major political parties: a right wing party, and a far right wing party. Actual centrists (who, around here, are usually called socialists or communists) have very little representation in the federal government.
Yup, I pretty much completely agree. I also get annoyed, though not quite as much, by people who practically worship him. My overall opinion of him: Eh, he's a politician. He's a little better than Bush Jr, but that doesn't take much, and it's only on a few specific issues.
As well having to pay for redundant backup servers. Managing good data backup and storage policies. While might be easy for a couple of servers for larger demand it could become a huge waste of your time. The cloud company should be doing this maintenance.
Key words there being "should be". You won't find out that they aren't until your data is gone.
Because taxes are used for paying for municipal/government protections, services, etc. If they have no physical entity then why should they pay for these things? It's not that simple, is all.
Okay, then they shouldn't get any government protections or services at all. That includes the courts, so if they don't pay taxes, they lose the ability to sue anyone for things like copyright infringement.

I was thinking a "no shit" tag would also be appropriate here as well.
My first thought was "notnews".
One has to accept that, in common usage, the word 'random' simply means 'chaotic' in the above sense.
That doesn't make it acceptable in scientific usage.

I imagine something like, "If God wanted us to know what the weather will be next week, He would come down and tell us, just like He did for Noah."
Except that one could quite reasonably argue that designing a game well is much more difficult than programming what a designer hands you.
Wow, talk about unintended consequences for the hotel.
Testing? Forget it.
It compiles, ship it!
No, we need a law that forbids all this 'release broken shit for money, fix it later' syndrome.
Why? Isn't taking someone's money and then not giving them what you promised already illegal?
I believe the original was OhNoItsRoland.
So I guess my XMPP connection from my desktop computer is just a figment of my imagination?
I know that Chat/Hangouts isn't really XMPP anymore, but it does still support XMPP connections at least for regular messages.

Whereas in fact manly vigor comes from driving a dinosaur-sized truck that guzzles fossil fuel.
So that's what they've been doing wrong. You aren't supposed to eat the dinosaur yourself, you're supposed to burn it in your truck.
Only if you creatively redefine both of the terms to mean something they don't in a colloquial usage.
Or if you use the scientific definitions instead.
This is one of those topics where, if you go far enough left and far enough right, the two sides happen to meet on the same issue.
It's almost as if there's more to politics than simply "left" versus "right".
Rhode Island is neither a road nor an island. Discuss.

Hopefully that clarifies what I said earlier.

What? Target's CEO resigned earlier this year after the breach severely impacted the company's already struggling bottom dollar.
Emphasis mine.
This post is even better if you imagine it being read by Stephen Colbert.
Keyword 3rd party. Yes you will get ads but they will be served by themselves or second party partners instead of 3rd.
Holy shit, users will be serving advertisements to themselves?

Bush did it first! Bush did it first! Bush did it first!....seriously how fucking long can you parrot this shit?
For as long as people think that it will all be fixed by a Republican president.

No predictions based on any kind of education, experience, or research.
Wild guess with no real support? 15-20 years for it to first cross the boundary, 25 years for it to become "popular".
