So, the people who said otherwise were lying through their teeth?

In which case, they should be fired for stupidity before getting criminally charged.

Exactly this! I like watching Jack Bauer "question" the bad guy as much as anyone, but what it comes down to is, it's not real! Nobody is really getting hurt, not even a criminal/terrorist. A real cop shouldn't do a fraction of the stuff we in the movies, and if they do, there should be heavy RL consequences.

Yeah, I remember. At one point, it got so bad I counted the BSODs. The record was 15, in an 8 hour day.

Because there wouldn't be anyone left to talk to.

Even with the whole season available, I don't really have time to watch it at once. I might see one or two eps, then I have to quit and do something else. Or I might be tired of that show and want to switch to a different one. Heck, I could decide that Sunday at 6 is "Daredevil time" and watch a single ep weekly like I used to with regular TV. The main downside is, I'm not on the same schedule as everyone else. If I've only seen the first two eps, I probably don't want to talk with someone who's seen the whole season.

You're probably looking at his mobile version.

Can I make phone calls with the iWatch? Since I can tell time with my phone, it sounds like a logical use for it.

Not even that. More like one of those people hangs an ugly picture on the wall, which can easily be taken down. Worth a chewing out by the teacher, but not much else.

There's also no third party gender-neutral pronoun. "Them" is fine for multiple people, but most people don't like being called "it".

English is the MS Windows of languages?

I'm not sure. It might help prevent a few wars if more people could understand each other. OTOH, it would also probably cause a few wars.

Homophones are bad if you're trying to get to the right room (was it five two or five too), but good if you're a smartass, poking fun at linguistic problems and someone else getting lost.

Maybe they can pull water from Uranus.

I had mixed feelings about W95. There were a lot of improvements over Win 3X, but stability wasn't one of them. There was one day it went down 15 times! In one 8 hour day! That's no exaggeration, I actually counted the reboots. The upside is, I got a lot of breaks. :-P
