I'm not seeing the "well-reasoned" part. You don't like what they say and you spewed a poorly reasoned explanation for why you don't see local delivery happening. I'm not in love with Uber either, and I don't approve of all their actions. But my dislike for them doesn't preclude me from seeing the possibility of package delivery.
Look, those things are really flimsy, and while they may have barely held the Super Big Gulp in 2001, cups today are more robust. I daren't put my Double Gulp in there anymore, as it's barely hanging on. Heck, even the X-Treme Gulp came out in 2001! Microsoft should replace all the cup holders with ones not only capable of holding the Team Gulp, but also those Gulps anticipated to come out in the next 5 years.
Bingo. Additionally, every slashdaughter who knows what hashing is realized that's what they meant by "scrambled". So big deal, TFS doesn't say which hash they use.
XP is 14 years old, and they gave plenty of warning when support would end. MS is under no obligation to support anything indefinitely. Seriously, why is your first response to sue? Is personal responsibility that hard?
The Catholic Church has officially endorsed the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection as well as the Big Bang Theory (not the show) for at least the last 20 years. I think longer.
If you're going to carry the 35lbs of paper maps anyway, why not save some money and not have the iPad? The maps aren't going to crash on you after all.
The Millennium Falcon was a cargo ship, and yet I seem to remember there being a crew. Adding that's it's unmanned would not have been redundant and would have been a nice useful detail.
Brilliant! Just say you're going to split them in two and give half to each, then whoever gives in and says the other can have them wins! King Solomon FTW!
Indeed, we Americans are just as guilty of pretending our horrible past never happened. Killing Indians, eugenics, rounding up Japanese during WWII, slavery and Jim Crow laws, segregation, women's suffrage movement, etc. We'd all rather not think about it and our collective memory of the past is a little rosier than it actually was. I think most of us stop short of actively denying it ever happened, but instead we use euphemisms to describe atrocities and downplay how widespread or terrible it was.
Try putting a battery in a diesel engine and see how well it runs. There's surely a future in electric cars, but that doesn't help the current fleet of diesel and gasoline vehicles. There needs to be more than solution to solve our myriad of energy problems.
If you have 2 friends, then emailing all both of them makes sense. When you have hundreds, making one small setting on FB and getting back to important stuff makes a little more sense.
I'm running an LG Google Nexus 5 with Cyanogenmod KitKat. I restart my phone...when I feel like it? I can't remember the last time it shut down on me. It's stable, fast, clean, and customizable.

I was about to ask how many seats you have in your butt.
No, it's definitely a hologram. But then, so is the whole universe.
* Don't worry, I'll store them in separate folders so they don't know about each other.
If it's OK with you, I'm going to pretend they're all in the same folder.
Each year school kids in Australia sit The National Assessment Program (NAPLAN) which in part tests literacy.
Can we get this AI to test Slashdot summaries?
I have a well reasoned dislike for a company

Just telephone type "my cup holder broke"?

It's not the price, it's the knowledge that it's on sale.
have global logistics chains.
You don't need a global logistics chain to deliver a parcel in a store in Wichita to a person in Wichita. Which is what it sounds like they're doing.
some guy with his mom's car
The owner of the car seems largely irrelevant.
no commercial license
Which is unnecessary to drive said mother's car.
possibly improper insurance
Boy, that doesn't sound solvable at all. Like, by making drivers have and prove they have the right insurance?
quite likely operating as an illegal commercial vehicle in many places.
TBD, lawsuits aren't over, laws may change.
I just don't see that happening.
If you stopped your irrational hate for a second and used your imagination, maybe you could.

AT&T's logo is the Death Star, fer cryin' out loud. Just because they're not as bad as Comcast, doesn't mean they're not terrible.
The Beatles really ARE more popular than Jesus.
No. But her father was a Sergeant in the Army.

Since the original Nexus 7 came out in 2012, then yes, 3 years is a pretty good run.
Right. Android Lollipop was the only OS ever fielded that had bugs.
Of course, guys being guys, most will be tempted to make a 150% scale model instead...
That's a big fist.
Climbing Everest is stupid, irresponsible, dangerous, pointless task
To be fair, slashmydots thinks the same thing of leaving the basement.
