Do they really have to drag Steve (Jobs) from his grave (even if only by video)?
Maybe he does a nice introduction a la "If you see this video, I'm dead. Thanks for stealing an hour of my dwindling life for it. Not".

Out comes the ouija-board....

Most e-cars have a leased battery.
Often times, that battery can be remotely deactivated.
So, if you're late on payments or there is some other disagreement: poof, car goes nowhere.

Welcome to the end of ownership.

All the suicide nut-cases will start to mount that fence.
Also, it wouldn't take long before the first "innocent bystander" would be hit by a ricocheting bullet or a shrapnel.

Were I live, eating out is very expensive.
Like upwards 25 USD for a pizza.
Without drinks.
I wouldn't spend money on dinner I don't even like!
But I wouldn't argue. I just wouldn't join them.

We met about once every six weeks face-to-face and he told me what to fix.

Turned out to be a good thing.

Even for my CS thesis, the professor wanted word files (annotate feature).
But I used lyx/klyx to write it and so he got PDFs, which he printed.

Lyx was wonderful, allowing me to concentrate almost exclusively on the text itself and not worrying about formatting. p I wish they would teach actual typesetting skills in school (because producing a document is a bit more than just filling a page with letters and spaces and a few pictures)!

When FreeBSD started having "10" in the version number, a lot of 3rd party (open source) software thought it must be version "1.0" (based on checks by GNU configure) which usually resulted in a failure to even go through the configure-phase....
Same reason why Solaris 11 is actually 2.11...

That wouldn't even fly with "friends" of the US and NATO-partners.
Thank god, US tech companies need to export their stuff, too.
I'm pretty sure that Apple et.al. have it clear to the various representatives in political offices what kind of policy they are going to support (i.e.: donate money) in the future and what they will not support. After all, Cook hired this new lobbyist: http://appleinsider.com/articl...

US is a corporatocracy - and Apple has very deep pockets and very loyal customers (who often also have deep pockets) with long memories - nobody in D.C. wants that combination against them.

You signed up here to post, too.
Where exactly is your problem?

Either host yourself or use wordpress.com or whatever blog-site there is.
Seriously, who cares about Facebook postings anyway? Are these people a bunch of 12 year olds?
I don't need a FB account to know that I probably can't differentiate between official propaganda, astroturfers, shills and real eye-witness reports - on both sides.

Maybe Ukraine should buy more ads on FB - that usually helps...

Quick, make a kickstarter campaign!

It's just that the humanitarian situation in Palestine is actually very bad - much worse than the daily 30s news-clip can transport, if I can trust a recent eye-witness report I read in a local paper.

So, it may be a bit too much for the kids, actually (as someone already suggested).
But still, it's a good idea. In these war-zones, "Game Over" really is more than two words.

I've got a car that cost much more than that and I didn't weld a steel-cage around it or equip it with a giant bull bar.

Just don't drop it.

"2012: Is Sexual Harassment Part of Hacker Culture?"....

Groundhog-day anyone?
