Nobody at DHS is stupid enough to put a Federal Judge on the no-fly list.
Why not? Congressmen did end up on this list a few times
Granted, they would probably be taken off when this issue comes up (unlike the rest of us who just have to deal with it).
The issue was that UltraViolet is buggy. It provides downloads in theory. I think there was some region restriction also with the service.
Oh, how I hate those streaming services and the assumption that such delivery is convenient for the user.
It's hard to find a downloadable movie trailer nowdays (and you'd think this is something movie studios WANT me to have, because it is an advert for their product).
We need to stop big tax dodgers useing loop holes to pay no taxes.
No, no, no!
We need to force politicians to eliminate the loopholes, which are all legal and often intentional
To create legal loopholes and then to expect people to voluntarily pay more (than they have to) taxes is a losing and pointless battle.
This plan doesn't fund replacing the power from those plants with anything, just some hand waving about "renewable energy" being expanded in parallel.
Indeed - this money would be better invested in these "renewable energy" alternatives.
As soon as something renewable and cheaper is invented, coal industry will be phased out naturally
Assholes accusing scumbags of torturing people, but in the meantime it was the assholes who defended the scumbags when they violated the Constitutions, ignoring the Bill of Rights, invading the privacy of Hundreds of Millions of the American Citizens, and billions more people outside of America.
No, I think it is far simpler than that.
We have a bunch of people who think anything goes "for the good of the country" (in the name of War on [*Something*]), until the second it affects them directly. Then, they suddenly remember laws/Constitution/human rights/etc.
This is not new, for example Video Privacy Protection Act.
I don't understand how businesses are allowed to tack on fees to bills without disclosing these fees in their prices. Somehow they can't quote these fees when you are booking the service, but they can calculate them when billing for the services.
That's right, this should definitely be illegal. Airlines played those games for years and years ($50 ticket fee, but with taxes it works out to $100 or maybe even $300). A rather recent regulation had ended that crap
In the US jurors can acquit for any reason and aren't required to say what it was.
Yes, but I hear if you utter the words "jury nullification" during selection, you won't make it into the jury. Might actually be a good strategy if you want out.
Apparently you might even be accused of jury tampering for spreading the word http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02...
I think it was an inside job. Some employee of Dice absconded with all the mod points!
So where did you buy yours?
And how much is "+1 Interesting" worth in Bitcoins now, anyway?
Steam has for me drastically lowered the value of a game, because while it is ONE thing to see game slowly decrease in price over a number of years, it is another to find prices slashed to 1/4 of the price seemingly at random.
What difference does it make what the price of the game is? The re-sale value of the game is zero because (as far as I know?) one cannot sell or even give away Steam games after purchase.
As an owner of a bunch of used games (both PC and console), I think that's too bad.
What could possibly go wrong...
Exactly. I wonder how much of that $7.2M has been earmarked to pay off damages/compensation, should anything go wrong?
You're 82, Leonard.
Let's see if you feel the same way if and when you reach the age of 82.
Actually, since EA is publicly traded, couldn't this count as a material misrepresentation to the stock market?
Well, it is still possible to leave a lower rating (hence the average is below 5), you just need to edit the initial 5-star rating. So I imagine they have a defense even if someone tries to pursue that issue
Why can the rating be hijacked, anyway? I am surprised it took so long for someone entrepreneurial to notice that bad ratings can be intercepted to skew the results.
Join the boycott Feb 10-17.
If Beta is still here on the 18th I will not return.
Exactly. Let's do that
I have been here for well over 10 years, and I am now investigating possible
We should have a discussion titled "Where would you go should Beta become permanent?"
