I thought that at first too. In fact, I had to google how to turn off!

But then I thought, "The computer is currently in the 'on' state and now I'm setting it to the 'off' state. I guess it is a setting."

But then I thought, "How come I can't turn it back on using 'settings'. I'm turning it from the 'off' state to the 'on' state. That should be a setting, too!"
So here's a question: How to I turn off the mail app? And how do I arrange things so I can see an email and an associated document at the same time?
Why does the desktop feel like it's just an "app" on the same level as "mail" and "calendar".
Why call it "Windows" if none of the new, modern apps are going to allow Windowing?

And then I realized that now that I'm done writing my resumé so I can put away my Windows 8 netbook until my resumé needs updating and go back to fighting with gnome 3!

Hilarious. This reads just like a Linux desktop post from a few years back.

Why do you hate Linux? All you have to do to get your stuff working is...

And then everything will work except... and ....

Mr. Cuban is quoted as saying:

"Remember most brands don't have social media departments. They rely on common sense. If someone likes your brand, it seems like common sense to me that you can expect your posts to reach 100% of those that like your brand. Doesn't it to you?"

I guess if I had spent money on Facebook advertising to get likes only to discover that I can't market to those people without spending even more money, I would feel a bit ripped off. Why did I spend the upfront money getting the likes again?

I do. But like any slashdotter worth his slashdot id, it's on my own email server.

To be fair, there are actually quite a few sports that don't risk impregnating women.

That would be a good way to make them into clocks, but any constant (w.r.t the orb) periodic animation would work.

It's not clear it would be affected. The ratio of their walking speed w.r.t the speed of light would increase by the same amount as the players.

That's not how relativity works. Everyone else's clock appears to be slow to you while your clock appears slow to everyone else's.

Actually, it's more complicated than that, because your clock appears to run fast to an observer watching you approach and then extra slow as you pass and retreat from the observer. It's not clear to me whether the "signal delay" due to the finite speed of light is taken into account in the simulation because their appears to be no animation on anything in the arena. They should have made the "orbs" clocks so you could see the time dilation effect.

I don't know how he can say that lower wages, etc are the ONLY possible outcome. It might be the PROBABLE outcome, but is it not possible that one or more of those H1Bs goes on to start one or more new companies in the US or contribute meaninfully to the start of one or more new companies thus creating lots and lots of jobs and more than making up for the ones taken by H1Bs?

Except for that damn animated dog! And when you told the dumb thing you didn't want the animation, there was an animation showing the dog walking off! I just told you I didn't want that!

It isn't today, but it will be going forward. Samsung can't have their equivalent product claiming when 2160 lines when LG is claiming 3840!

Yeah, but they have been trying to make a name for themselves in the mobile market since the 1990s when their only competition was Palm! Even if they do manage to get it right some day, what are the chances that it happens in time to save Nokia?

That joke just never gets old no matter how many times you post it here.

You forgot to add this:

I clicked this link on the front page of wikileaks.org and was immediately confronted with a paywall that matched the description in the article. That's great if you don't see a paywall where you are from, but that doesn't make those that do see it a "sack of lying shit".
