Get away with what? You make it sound as if the company is doing something wrong.

We've had a taste of what real zero-g filming produces. Apollo 13's spacecraft interior scenes where shot on a set inside the vomit comet. They just made heavy use of that get the realism they desired.

Why would a company have to fund employee's home internet? Employees already have home internet. Companies should not be on the hook for that cost just like they should not have to chip in on the home heating and electricity bills. That's just an individual's cost of using their house.

True, but now that viable alternatives finally exist, cable subscribers are jumping ship for ad-free services in large numbers.

What's the problem with needing a smartphone to shop in a particular grocery store? Almost everyone already has one when they are in-store anyways. Some of them actually use the phone for payment on the way out. Why not make use of this device everyone already has in their pocket in order to streamline the shopping process further? Amazon has already demonstrated this works in their cashier-less convenience stores. I you ever had a chance to try those stores, Id think you would agree that the experience is far better than what one would get at a traditional convenience store.

AotC, then RotS sadly.

Which ones?

Why would Allah need to seek revenge? One would think he would be very pleased with the fact that he can now legally marry.

Agreed, Jar Jar was awful, but anyone trying to make this into any kind of race issue should be tied and quartered. Really, nothing better to think about? Fuck them.

Yes, nobody wants downtime. It has been about 2 years since I've migrated everything to Azure. In that time, I've experience a handful of outages. All of them were under an hour in duration. Last night's outage was about 3 hours, and the longest I've experienced with Azure. If that's the way the service performs, I'll accept that. Why, you may ask. Prior to Azure I had been using Amazon EC2. In that time there were only 2 outages of note. The big problem there is that those EC2 outages were measure in DAYS not hours. I would much rather have 5 1 hour outages in a year that 2 multi-day outages every two years. Small outages can sometimes fly under the radar for me if they happen during off peak times, but outages measured in days mean you're in for some hurt.

Ya, is anything functional in that city?

You are absolutely correct. I don't see much difference, fundamentally, between whats happening here and if protesters showed up at my house after they found out I took a mortgage interest deduction, put a portion of my income into a tax deferred account, and leased a car through my business in order to lower my taxable income.

I recently traveled to France, England, and Ireland. I have a Sprint HTC One which Sprint unlocked for me in order to use a foreign SIM card while on my trip.

You will not need 4G, so do not concern yourself with that. I quickly discovered that their 3G speeds throughout the region easily and quite regularly surpassed 4G speeds I have measured here in the US on several providers.

My memory may be off on this a bit but I could swear, while running a speed test, that I was pulling down 20Mb/sec. I've yet to get that result on Sprint's 4G network. I recognize that Sprint is not the standard by which all others should be compared, but still... I was impressed and surprised.

If we're sure everything started as 50% matter and 50% anti-matter, and now we are nearly a pure matter universe, my uneducated guess would be that there is something in the nature of matter-antimatter collision that, in addition to creating energy, would also leave behind a small amount of residual matter. That could explain how over these billions of years, we are left with a mostly matter universe. If this has been proven impossible, please someone yell at me and tell me otherwise. I recall reading that they often generate antimatter in particle accelerators... have they ever done specific research on the results of matter-antimatter collisions?
