125% x 81% = 100% (to two significant figures, which is as close as we can get from the article data).

OTOH, it would be interesting to see if you could gain a long term benefit by letting people sleep in an extra hour on a regular basis.

...it's Instagram filters.

I guess either way the planet is going to end up uninhabitable - we may not choke to death on smog, we'll be overrun by hipsters. God, what an awful way to go.

So is farting at a social event.

Unless you're doing it maliciously and overtly, and disrupting the general flow of the dance, it's not something to get upset about.

Bingo. And the precipitous drop in rate was not really a function of de-regulation, per se, but of the requirement that the lines had to be shared. The barriers to entry were lowered.

What we need is a full-on, forced corporate divorce of plant operations, provider/service/access operations, and content creation and distribution. You can't own more than one as a corporate entity at any level. Destruction of vertical integration offers only minor cost savings when compared to the cost increase a monopoly creates in the intellectual property area.

And the funny thing is - they were right. Nobody prints photos at home in any quantity that would approach threatening a large photographic print processor.

That they didn't catch on to digital imaging and the fact that people now don't bother to print pictures on paper at all (home printer or lab) and instead post them online was the mark of their implosion.

But breaking into a house you've leased to someone else is illegal. Sure, you own the container, but the contents are actually owned by someone else. You may be able to do certain things the other person's content is contained in, but you can't do anything with the stuff inside.

(in a troll mood this rainy afternoon)

Who in the world thinks that Russia DOESN'T spy on the US and GB (and France and Germany and everyone else for that matter). FFS - we ALL do it to everybody else.

This is like complaining that farts stink, and somebody just found out that we left a beige cloud in the restroom. Somebody light a match, close the door, and get on with it. In polite society you hold your breath and pretend like nothing happened, because the next time the remains of the burrito might be yours.

This is a youtube competitor like Crackle or Hulu is a competitor. It will fail if it wants to be Youtube, given the policies at Yahoo. This is more of a video commerce site for a curated few, not a place to throw up videos for the hell of it.

The government gives, but not in the way you think.

The government provides the entire framework for an orderly society, without which we would not have roads, air travel, financial intercourse, or a level of personal, financial, and societal stability and safety every single person in a first world country takes for granted every day.

That's not to say that the don't screw some things up, or misplace priorities, or have management issues - but without government there would be anarchy.

Kind of a non-story, really, don't you think? How hard is it to believe that a crowdsourced data application can be poisoned by an intentional attack using spoofed data?

I would have thought a coupon for a free pizza a drink would have been enough. It's not like Target blew up a town, they just lost some CC#s. On second thought, maybe just a free drink with your next purchase.

Have you ever tried to create *content* and effectively distribute it on an (unjailbroken) iPad? It is an exercise in futility and frustration. I have both (okay, not a surface, but Sony Win8.1 tablet), and I only use the iPad for surfing, watching the occasional TV show in bed, and as a big GPS in the car. OTOH, I use the Sony to edit CAD drawings, type up reports and send them to clients, mark up architectural prints (pixel accurate pen FTW*), compose music, transcode and distribute audio files...pretty much everything I can do sitting at my desk. The iPad is a toy - granted, a toy that has some utility - but it's just a toy.

*I've tried about 4 different pens on the iPad, from $10 eraser points to $100 bluetooth jobs. None of it comes close to "writing". Even with the "same" program (Bluebeam, which has an iOS and W8 version) it's just painfully slow and inaccurate on the iPad.

Fool me twice...maybe it's not a problem with Microsoft, eh?

Oh, c'mon, how could you not end that rant with, "That smell - it's not burning brush, it's the glorious smell of freedom!"

On the contrary, it biases the animals taken in a given year. If you are a hunter and have a week to take a large game specimen, you are likely to make a different decision about what is an "acceptable" take if you are limited to ground review vs being able to survey a much larger area and select a better trophy animal to hunt.

This seems to be aimed specifically at sport hunters since subsistence hunters would be less selective or would simply have more time, as local residents, if they felt some odd need to harvest a particular size animal.
