I knew a guy who was mensa... and I can tell you for a fact he was dumb as a box of rocks. Either he cheated or they gave him a free one.

Silverlight has been dead for a long time. Microsoft officially ended all future development of Silverlight in March of 2013. This is just the natural progression of its funeral.

I refuse to post on wikipedia. I have had almost every edit I have ever made reversed by an asshole editor. IN AREAS THAT I AM AN EXPERT IN, AND THE EDITOR IS NOT. It's like I am Galileo having my posts on Heliocentrism edited by the flat earth believing church. Unless we can out these arrogant editors and replace them with true experts, it will never be resolved.

I'd venture to say people are just as unlikely to clean and oil their gun and install fresh ammunition. Ammunition has a finite shelf life, and much shorter than you might think if left in humid locations.

If you're using your gun regularly (as you should be) to stay well versed with it. You should have zero problem keeping an eye on the battery.

A pacemaker that depends on a battery? No way I would rely on such a device!

How about we stop interfering with the free market and innovation???

"I told him that I would not try to sell someone something that they didn't need just because it made the store more money. I didn't get the job."

Good. You shouldn't have. They were offering to pay you for a specific set of tasks. You said you didn't want to do those tasks. You therefore do not qualify for the job.

More money in the government coffers, a cleaner earth does not make.

There's a tiny OS running on your CDROM drive, your external USB hard drive, your BlueTooth Mouse, etc. This isn't just a cell phone issue.

Here's a glimpse into that alternate future.

When every story on slashdot was "Microsoft sucks" and every comment was "If only Apple could get enough momentum to crush Microsoft."

Oh how the times have changed... different companies, same bitches. You people are never happy. LOL.

I, for one, welcome my new Apple Overlords.

THIS.. Everything you just said.

Every single time I make an update, it is reverted within minutes. There are blatant errors in many of the articles, but the ideolog editors prefer the error. Its as bad as news media bias.

Or maybe, just maybe, we quit taxing the hell out of everything and let everyone keep their money.

I mean seriously. Just stop. It's that simple. Free country? Life? Liberty? Constitution? Remember all that stuff?
