I don't really understand; are you trying to imply that there are/aren't "power users"? About 50% of people who use phones are power users; it's nearly impossible to buy a low end phone.

Curious - is there any good reading material you could suggest regarding power sourcing/distribution/hvdc/grid power management of this kind? This sounds like an interesting thing to read about.

Reading comprehension is helpful. GP said getting more conservative AND voting against conservative. It's that the republican party isn't conservative as much as extremist; not that old age correlates to voting conservatively.

This is exactly correct, but the problem is what is the alternative? You're given the choice between a terrible choice and a worse terrible choice. Neither of those are things that should be supported.

This is hilariously incorrect. Money *works* short term, it doesn't work long term.

All you're saying is your parents are bad at beekeeping, sorry. It's called "anecdotal" evidence for a reason - it is solely your own. The reality is most people aren't as bad at beekeeping.

Big Media has never won. They were late to the game and cannot reverse history. They literally cannot win. Facts and history are not on their side, and this is no different.

This is hilariously dishonest.

Conventional taxis don't have to go out of business - that's a strawman/misnomer. Why don't they provide their own apps to provide service to riders? Oh, right. Uber is doing what taxi services refuse to in a lot of instances. Uber isn't the problem here, but old outdated legislation is.

Taxi services don't operate 24/7 with 100% coverage, that is and never can be the case anywhere. Meanwhile, uber is opening up to other competition and enabling better coverage than the taxi services themselves provide.

awww, a big government baby won't be able to keep playing fast and loose with breaking the law and using toys they can't handle responsibly!

qq!

Agreed.

I'd happily give up ESPN off sling to get something actually worthwhile. I haven't gone to ESPN even once on sling.

Be reasonable. They can also submit anything that doesn't fit their scope of propaganda directly to the government and remove any hint of anonymity to thus gain more favor with the government, as well.

Hmm. Maybe it's the "you don't have a way to opt out of receiving mail" part of things?

This is the actual truth. You are 100% correct.

It is actually proven that having real time traffic data to make traffic decisions is to the benefit of everyone driving. On the flip side, I don't really like how that equation works out for your personal privacy.

This is so laughably false I'm amazed you even tried to push such a logic. Please stop asking people to prove a negative.

Geoengineering is something you are referencing with no knowledge; an increase in seismic risk is exactly that.

Considering they used their money to make this into the system, I see absolutely no reason to simply say "it's okay, they're using the rules they created".

That's 100% wrong and dishonest.
