ka-ching!
or as Agent Smith would say, Sound of inevitability.

Now noone uses film.

how do you destroy this public image? Kodak=film

it's best (for america, and for the larger world) to encourage such behaviors..

what is better than taking money from a 60yro who will sleep on it, and to give it to a 20yro who will spend to the last penny?

how else we will employ? or get employed? how else the gearwheels of economy will work?

wall st. people doing a service for rotating/circulating money.

if 60yro earned his money? its his money to loose... if he inherited, it's his money to loose...

its free markets, some win some loose... in the end show must go on, money must keep changing hands for economy to function.

so, what's the fuss for?

wouldn't wiping off mosquitoes will help to make future generations of humans even weaker?, as enemies will disappear, immune gets weak?

as George Carlin would say, "[because] I grew up swimming in raw shit... and my immune system is equipped with fully automatic assault riffles.. and ready to [deal] with the mother fucker [germ]"

As great Einstein once said, "It is tasteless to prolong life artificially"

"maximum life span [wikipedia.org] has really not changed at all"

you're right, as long 2500 years ago many people lived (if not injured or had disease) until age of 70 or more.. as an example look at the great Socrates.

so in reality, many people lived log life, long ago. It's just that recently medicine enabled more people to live long life.

..or else.

You saw the fate of the newspapers and books.

>> We all remember what Steve Jobs was saying that Apple had "no plans at the current time to make a tablet." We are now 9 years in the future so it is hardly "the current time"

Well, it turns out that, this is not entirely true. Steve Jobs said in a more recent AllThingsD interview that, quote "[they] started out [iphone] as a tablet, then realized that that [multi touch interface] would be great for a phone. Considering Jobs showed off iPhone-1 on January 9, 2007, and must have been in the planning/working for at least 2-3 years, clearly there was some work/planning/whatever going on about a tablet at Apple at the time of Jobs TFA interview.

Yes, I hed this very same experience as a RHEL admin.
