And on top of that, if you click on the actual Lincoln Memorial, it shows a picture of the Washington Monument. Maybe its a view FROM the Lincoln Memorial, but I think it should be a picture of the LM itself.
I have to agree 100%.
If the usual rate of dropped calls is 2%, just to take an example, #1 is actually 50 times worse than #2. #1 means that the rate is increased by 1
50% worse is not the same as 50 times worse.
That would make sense if they also had a formal procedure for doing the repair work as well. But seeing as they don't I have to go with the fact that my supervisor has never built or taken something apart in her entire life. The other shift supervisor is a lot more laid back when it comes to not following the written process exactly. He however, came up from the floor.
And I do believe that being a fortune 50 company, they have the lawyers already on staff.
I'm seeing this even in my work. I'm a mechanic at a large wind turbine manufacturing company. Recently, I moved from the repair side of the business to the new unit assembly. There is a written procedure, from our parent company in Germany (which sucks major balls I might add) to do the new assembly. Any deviation from the written procedure is severely frowned upon. I have found, based on my extended skill-set as a repair technician vs the people who are just assemblers, easier and faster ways of doing things. However, I have been scolded by my new supervisor for doing so.
It really chops my ass, but you're right. Doing things in creative and different ways is not acceptable for whatever reason...
The IMEI number changes with the phone. So, if I took my SIM card out, and put it in another phone BAM new IMEI number.
How about taking the whole damned paragraph instead of just the part that you like"
The quality of the pixels you see impacts how you use your computer. After years of experience, Apple engineers have discovered the ideal resolution to display both sharp text and graphics — a pixel density of about 100 pixels per inch (ppi). Other vendors may offer a larger monitor, but with less resolution, so you end up with fewer pixels, or a smaller monitor with a high resolution that causes eyestrain and headaches. Apple’s balanced 100 pixels per inch format is optimized for images, yet allows you to easily work with text in email, Safari and sophisticated type treatments in layouts.
They even state that its a trade off between good image quality, and good text quality.. Hence that word BALANCED in there.
Now, don't ask me why a lower ppi is good for images, doesn't make sense to me. I just wanted to bring the whole paragraph into play here.
And according to the article he linked, it was 1961.
No one knows exactly how it started, but a coal vein has been burning under the Pennsylvania mining town of Centralia since 1961.
2010 - 1961 = 49 years there buddy.
It didn't fail on it's own though. An employee broke it and BP senior execs didn't think it was important enough to delay further to fix it.
Maybe his choice happened before he left the house? Or sent his mom to go get it for him I mean....
Fucking Agreed. She makes some fucking good fucking points, but no fucking need to swear so fucking much.
A few years ago I crashed into a light pole. I was charged with Wreck-less Driving and Damage to City Property. But I guess my county is a bit of a hardass when it comes to charging traffic bullshit. We're located right next door to Cook county (Chicagos county). They gotta prosecute something...
Yeah all I got was google search results page. Oh well. Nice try. Better luck next time.
As an aside, by now I'm pretty much desensitized to all that crap. From Goatse, to tub girl, 2girls 1 cup, etc etc. It doesn't bother me. Do I wish I didn't see it? Sure. Do I lose sleep over it? Nope.
According to all the latest reports, there was no truth in any of the earlier reports.
