Not a bad idea. Mosin Nagants are still cheap, plentiful and there's still a bunch of ammo available.

My bullshit meter always starts kicking into life when the hyperbole starts flowing, like the reading comprehension or random amount of payment received having a causative effect on the function of an organic process.
For me, it's my Political Correctness Meter. You know how it works.
Headline: "Huge Comet To Smash Into Earth, Instantly Ending All Life On The Planet! Activists Say Women and Minorites Unfairly Impacted."
I'm never giving money to anything that is funded via that method.

In 2011, I couldn't reach my sister for over an hour after an earthquake. It would have been awesome if I could have just checked her page.

No. They're not lying. They are telling the truth. They structure their business models to make sure that the money is earned in the least taxable manner.
It's common sense. A for-profit corporation exists to maximize shareholder value within the confines of the law. To do anything less is a breach of fiduciary responsibilities.

We had 0.
Then Mr Duncan arrived. We had 1.
Then Mr Duncan died. We had 0.
Then the nurse tested positive. We have 1.
You're an idiot. If you have to play those kinds of semantic games in order to avoid counting above 1, please just avoid participating.
Let's see: total number of Ebola Patients in the U.S. is
You didn't bother reading the summary or the article, did you? Not just 1, Mr. Duncan. The next victim is the trained, well-equipped health care professional who - despite having far better protection and awareness than the vast majority of people in the world - just tested positive for having caught the virus from him.
What's your point in ignoring that glaring little dose of reality?
social conservatism isn't going to survive the next 3 decades.
Prognosticators have been predicting the end of social conservatism for 50 years.
You will not live to see our end.

The headline is quite inaccurate. The processors are doing what they're designed to do; approximate the results of certain operations to a "good enough" value to achieve an optimal result:work ratio. Sort of like how the NFL measures first-downs with a stick, a chain, and some eyeballs rather than bringing in a research team armed with scanning electron microscopes to tell us how many Planck lengths short of the first down they were.
This is a documentation failure. They're fixing the documentation. For anyone who would actually care about perfect accuracy in these kinds of operations, there are any number of different solutions to achieve the desired, more accurate result. The headline and the summary make it seem as though there's a problem with the processor which is simply incorrect.
Work without a vision is slavery, Vision without work is a pipe dream, But vision with work is the hope of the world.
