Some employers try, with non-compete clauses.

A little bit doesn't hurt (I like Italian dressing but hate every other kind), but too much and you've basically buried your salad in oil, wrecking the whole point.

When I order a sub at SubWay, I used to order it with oil and vinegar as dressing. Lately, I kept the vinegar but dropped the oil.

Oh, and of course, coming from a situation of scarcity, they would not accept "I've had enough" while there was still food on the plate... So from a young age we're raised on the wrong idea of how big a meal should be and taught to ignore the signals our bodies tell us when we've had enough. Now we're no longer capable of recognising those signals, assuming our bodies still bother sending them at all. We're the ones who have to measure and track to compensate for that broken feedback loop.

Absolutely agree with you here, having had a lot of that "happy plate" stuff shoved down my throat (and more literally than you'd think, too). It's hell just to cut my meal size in half, because I'm so used to "eat until sated".

Now, back on topic: no, it should absolutely *not* be considered a disability. If you're genuinely overweight or obese due to medical conditions, those medical conditions are your disability, not your obesity.

Agree here too.

Doesn't mean they won't keep doing it anyway.

We've always used MECHANICAL voting machines here.

Well, Fiats are kind-of infamous for being cheap junk, aren't they?

I'd be one to use WordPerfect 5, because of its bare minimum UI in edit mode.

Most likely, that disgraced quack Andrew Wakefield.

Maybe GNOME will dry up and wither away, and most likely MATE will survive - because MATE is the GNOME people want.

MASM, probably, but every MASM I've tried - 1.1, 3.0, 4.0, 4.1, 5.1 - chokes and dies on it. Let me know if you get 'em to roll - I'd like to create some custom bins and take 'em for a spin. xD

-uso.

It's why I use Seamonkey, they don't change the UI willy-nilly, but it's Firefox under the hood.

People need to realize that Andrew Wakefield, the father of the anti-vax movement as we know it today, was discredited and disgraced for the shoddiness of his so-called "research".

Oh yeah, and he had a vested interest in kids not getting MMR vax - I think he had ownership of a patent on a different rubella-only vaccine. Herp derp.

He said Mac, not iPad.

Like 0.0.0.0?

In my opinion, the answer to Beta is to try to create an alternative /. with the existing or an older design and try to woo people there on virtue of being better. Which of course any site that manages to be Slashdot without the new shit, and with perhaps actual editorial work, can't help but be better. But will they come if you build it?
