If everyone is charging the same amount, it's because you started charging that much, Apple.

If you had made the rate 25%, every one of your competitors would be doing the same thing.

*sigh*

Socialize the costs, privatize the profits.
Fuck you.

"That's, after all, is where the money is."

Does no one edit anymore? We used to see a little (sic) every now and then, or a ...[word]... here and there. Now, nothing.

*sigh*

Fuck! That's two errors on the front page this morning!

*sigh*

I get that not everyone has good grammar (or uses Grammarly), but FFS, every modern device that edits text has a spell checker built in... Use the goddamn thing!

There are so many more layers to his "challenge"/speech; competition, national pride, youthful exuberance (and pride), etc...
All of it carefully crafted to keep costs low and productivity high. Full stop.

Clever monster...

This is Rick acting like a god and telling his microverse inhabitants that they can only be truly happy by working for his betterment.

Fucking monster.

I would like to reply to your sig.

It took humans thousands of years to build houses capable of withstanding natural catastrophes.

Software's been around, what, ~100 years (200 if you go back to the Jacquard Loom c. 1804).

We're dumb, and only learn from experience. Gibe us a few thousand more years. :)

This certainly felt like the early form of A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer.

Not that I want any corporation to be responsible for teaching my children, but having a private, custom version without relying on someone else's eyes; I'll take it.

Well said. One missed item, that hard-fought for 40 hour work week is now considered lazy.

I work in IT, not programming --just the back-end stuff, and I have been shamed (not ashamed) for considering anything less than 60+ hours per week --not including weekends-- to be idiotic. They each looked at me and said, "You're in IT". Like that was supposed to say it all.

I'm not working anything more than I absolutely have to to keep my job, and keep my family fed. If I were hourly, it might be a different story.

Not for long.

That makes sense. You implicitly trust the SatNav to be accurate, but other people's direction could be erroneous. Ergo, your brain is constantly fact-checking their directions.

AR was always going to be the "Next Big Thing". VR is a fun, limited-use-case solution looking for a problem. AR keeps the user productive. AR keeps the user engaged in the world around him/her.

When a Wells Fargo employee accuses you of financial malfeasance you know you done fucked up good.

What a scummy fucking troglodyte.

I pray for the VP to suddenly and violently be promoted to POTUS.

*sigh*

Will this speed up transfers and other digital transactions?

I find it incredibly frustrating that it still takes DAYS to do some electronic transfers. After all, immediately verifiable trust should foster a speedier transaction, right...right?

Unfortunately, I doubt it...

That's great and all. Just one issue, without a super-heated, spinning core the atmosphere will just blow away...

Magnets, yo!
