Instead of renaming it, why not just pronounce it the right way?

12 shots, 12 hits to the torso.
Where did you get "12" from?
I think Apple is a little leery about being too quick to release patches these days...
I still prefer grey-on-black and full screen. Easy on the eyes and easy to concentrate.
Sure! They had SSL enabled for all of their email clients. That makes it totally encrypted and secure, right?
Right??
Fire is burning up your data. Har!
Yeah, all those things are great for people who don't go outside.
Given that it has been their standard for seven years and over three iterations of Office, I don't think they have any plans to undo it.
You can just customize it though, just add your commonly used tasks to the home tab of the ribbon and you're set.
It can certainly breed animosity when your close friends don't respect your life decisions. Nothing about second thoughts on said decisions, or lying to yourself.
This question has been gnawing on me. I can sleep easy now.
What irks me is how hiding the Bing shit from Windows Update is never permanent.
This was all part of the standard curriculum in my high school physics class, decades ago.
Hunting is not for everybody and not every person should be expected to understand the appeal. As a person who has hunted for most of his life, I will say that while I greatly enjoy the process of doing my research, learning the patterns of the animal, learning the lay of the land and practicing my skill set in such a way as to be undetectable when on the field. It is far more easily said than done and can be a tremendous challenge, depending on what it is you are trying to hunt. Most hunts you may not even find your quarry and you will wind up empty-handed.
All that said, I have never enjoyed nor will I ever enjoy killing things. But I do not waste them and I find it to be a far more ethical and healthy alternative to beef. It saddens me to say that not all people who hunt share my perspective, and there are some murderous sons-of-bitches who just like to kill things and create the negative stereotype you perceive, but please understand that does not describe the majority of us.
I wholeheartedly agree that the use of drones tips the scales unfairly and hope to see every other state government take queues from Alaska.
As a responsible outdoorsman I will not attempt to sway your beliefs nor argue about pointlessness or justification, but yes, it is a far more involved process than simply pointing a gun and pulling the trigger. If you have ever attempted to hit a target the size of a paper plate from hundreds of yards using a rifle, you would understand that it requires a great deal of practice, fine-tuning, muscle control and serious consideration of your target and surroundings. Factors such as wind and trajectory have to be considered. Unless you can guarantee 100% that your shot will take the animal then and there, you have no business pulling the trigger. (Regretfully, not all outdoorsmen emphasize ethical and responsible hunting, though all who I associate with do.)
"JIP"... How appropriate.
