Aren't windows 8 and 8.1 the same thing?
Doesn't seem like much over 4 years. I suspect it's running at loss at least 2 of those 4 years.
Since nobody wants to part with their bitcoin, he will be funding his campaign with fiat currency while reaping the benefits of being to the first to accept bitcoin. It's a win win
The summary is incorrect. Low end windows phone are far more competitive with Android on the low end spectrum that high end. If anything, they would be making competing high end Android phones (which again seems completely unlikely).
If you operate a vehicle in an unsafe way (including speeding) then it's your own damn fault. If you want Top Gear Jeremy Clarkson is a master of exaggeration. He called the 19'inch wheels on a mercedes AMG "the size of neptune".
I ended up using something similar. I just have a bunch of memorized passwords using a very simple 3 keyed format
like "AB#" "EF#" "I#K"
This way whenever I need a new password to add to my list I write anything that pops into my head on a note. for example..
J92bd3Yp4. "J92" "bd3" "Yp4". write it down, use it for a week until it's memorized and it's done. I have about 6 passwords in this format completely memorized and cycle them everywhere.
Why pay when you can have it fo free?
His strongest point is point #3, beautifully illustrated by the fool who 4 years ago thought bitcoin was worthless and threw out his harddrive, and today is dumpster diving because he believes it's worth 4.7 million (in actual currency).
RTFA. Ford is not recalling all vehicles. it is recalling the 2013 Ford Escape.
From TFA, "9,469 Escape are being re-recalled. There have been no fires."
Ford is recalling the 2013 escape. no fires, there might be potential fires it's a voluntary recall.
Telsa has had 3 fires, no voluntary recalls, won't even admit there's a problem.
That's why Tesla get shit in the news. Take of your bias goggles.
we have requested that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration conduct a full investigation as
... if something is discovered that would result in a material improvement in occupant fire safety, we will immediately apply that change to new cars and offer it as a free retrofit to all existing cars
Wow, not running from a recall as is usual, but actively inviting one.
You don't need NHTSA to start a recall. Most car companies do recalls without having a NHTSA investigation
by not creating products nobody wants
It's not a math game. You don't want to be one of the 3 whose car catches fire or dies in a fire. What if you get out but your kids can't? If there's a design issue Telsa should fix it. End of story.
Ender's Game is all about being in Ender's world, you are in his head you experience things the way he see and experiences it. That's why the ending of the book was shockingly good.
However this is difficult to translate into a movie especially with the Captain American/Iron Man style they chose to make it in.
