So which racist and misandry company do you work for so we can all avoid buying their products and services? Tell us so none of you can be there much longer.

Trains in Vancouver are driverless and have been that way since their introduction in 1986. Oh the humanity.

The idea of requiring a driver's license to "ride" in an autonomous car is stupid. What's the point if you need to be able to drive?

I don't think you understand how healthy capitalism is supposed to work. Employees of HP are not only providing goods are services but area also potential customers of HP products and services. When you cut and cut and cut, you end up with nobody being able to afford the products your company offers. The lost jobs also have a ripple effect in the local economy. Why don't you stop being a hypocrite. You want to keep your job right? Why should you get to keep yours?

At some point, cutting jobs have a negative effect on your bottom line over the long run.

I DON'T CARE. Their app on iOS sucks and I have no interest in any sort of kind. I don't live in the US so I don't have a "PRIME" account either. The US DOJ is making things more difficult for non-americans to access content.

I think you are confused. Do you work at the DOJ by any chance. The agency model removed control over pricing from the vendor and gave it to the publishers. That means that Apple had no control over pricing.

Wow. From the tone of your post, you seem to be a firm believer in extra terrestrial life and you have the nerve to critique a belief in god? Your attitude reeks of a low self worth and a low value for humanity in general. You are like a beaten wife of a stockholm syndrome sufferer who no longer thinks they are not worth the attention of a creator. Ironically, you equate the belief in a personal god as requiring a massive ego and yet humility is what is generally required of believers.

You apparently speak out on religion out of a great deal of ignorance. You seem to have almost no knowledge on the matter.

Seriously, your anti-human attitude is repulsive. There is zero evidence of life on any other planet let alone intelligent life and no evidence of other universes either. You seem to have an awful lot of "faith" in things you cannot prove for an atheist.

It is you who seems to have the large ego since you have taken upon yourself to define what a god should be and how that god should act towards humanity.

You are so eloquent. Where did you go to school? Get back to us with a larger vocabulary and avoid using insults and slurs. Then and only then will your opinion be worth hearing.

I think you need to stop using words that you clearly do not understand their meaning. This is not circular reasoning but a matter of your actions having natural consequences. You seem to be engaging in "magical" thinking where because you believe that something is not bad behaviour that somehow the negative consequences of your actions go away. The same consequences exists regardless of what you believe. Your opinion on the matter is irrelevant.

Risky behaviour remains risky no matter how much wishful thinking you engage in. Christian morality simply helps people avoid certain risks and ensure that their behaviour does not negatively affect other people around them especially those they care about. You are free to be an amoral a-hole but your actions will have natural consequences down the road and you will have negatively affected other people that you have interacted with.

You atheists are funny. You don't believe in god but then you blame god when people get sick as a consequence of bad behaviour. I have a fool proof way to not get HIV. Ready for it? Are you really ready? Ok here it is.

Don't fuck random strangers. Find a life mate who does not have HIV and marry them. Then remain faithful.

Why is this so damn hard for people to understand? Your choices often have consequences. Make the right choices in life.

Uh, in the natural state, they are the same thing. You have to apply technology to making someone appear a different gender on the outside sort of but you cannot change their sex. The reality is that everyone can tell the difference between a natural woman and a transexual. It is blindingly obvious and no amount of facial surgery can change that.

The Dr. Dre headphones are crap. They have a plastic headband that will crack at random intervals of use. The executive ones have a metal band but it takes disposable batteries and only work when you have the noise cancelling turned on.

If Apple does buy them, they should replace the plastic bands on the other models with metal with leather cushion like what you find on the Executive. For the price they share, they should not break during normal use within a year.

I had a pair of Dr. Dre Wireless break on me after a 4 months of normal use after returning from a business trip to DC. The headband snapped on me.

I am saving a tonne of money by having officially unlocked my iPhone 5S from another carrier where I was paying 90 bucks a month for a paltry amount of data per month. Now I pay 39 bucks per month for unlimited everything in Canada and the US. Even with having to pay off the device balance, the unlock fee (50 bucks), I am going to save hundreds of dollars of the remainder of time that I would have paid if I had stayed on my contract with that other carrier. I am saving even more by not having to pay roaming fees when I cross the border.

When I eventually do upgrade, I will not be buying an iPhone subsidized but rather I will buy one directly from Apple. That way, I can choose the best carrier available at the time and save a lot of money over the long haul.

Always consider the long term cost of ownership.

But they are not right for the reasons they state. If you were to compare the US government against even Canada with it's appointed senate, it is easier to topple a Canadian federal government by the will of the people outside of the normal election cycle without any violence.

How is this possible? First for all Canada's head of the government is the Prime minister which is the leader of the party with the most seats in the legislature instead of being a separate elected "president". What this means is that a government can be toppled early if they have the most seats but no majority in the house and the other parties decide to gang up and vote down the budget or some other "confidence" motion. This will trigger an early election.

Citizens in a riding (district for you americans) can also organize a recall referendum to force a "by-election" in that one riding/district where the sitting member has to contest for his/her seat in a special election. If the ruling party were to be forced to fight too many by-elections and lost too many seats to the opposition parties, a general election could be triggered early by a non-confidence vote.

Unfortunately, since the leader of the cabinet and the leaders in the house are separate people in the US system and because losing the majority in a house does not trigger an election, the people really have no way to topple a government they disagree with without a violent uprising.

You cannot force a reset of the house or senate through a lost vote on the budget in the US whereas in countries like Canada, if the government loses a key vote, it is considered as having lost the confidence of the people and a new election has to be called.

Ding, ding goes the bell but there is a dim bulb above your head. You already have the Tyranny of the masses in the US in the form of direct votes on levies and other binding referendums. I am not talking about direct democracy but rather parliamentary democracy. The US House of representatives might not be called a parliament and you might have a separate executive branch that is elected but you still share many concepts and procedures from the westminster model of parliaments including a speaker of the house, rules for presenting a bill, rules for debate, committees and a throne speech but in your case, it is called the State of the Union address.

I hate to break it to you but your country is not as special as you make it out to be.
