I wonder how many times now the US government has blatantly lied about cyber attacks they launched that have been discovered and then blamed on other countries and pseudo organisation like Anonymous.
I myself have always regarded Anonymous as perhaps the ultimate expression of the old saying, "When four sit down to conspire, three are fools and the fourth is a government agent."
Sounds like she has mental issues.
Addiction is definitely by choice. They may not be able to choose to get out of addiction, but they choosed to become addicts in the first place. Nobody believes that drugs - or even alcohol - is totally harmless. Inexperienced people experimenting with drugs buy from long-time addicts, knowing that those guys can get dope. They see what the addicts they're buying from look like, and still they try.
Um, what? I've been there, and you obviously haven't.
It's more like... they see that their dealer has lots of cash, a fancy car and other bling-bling... rubs elbows with all kinds of important-looking people... and doesn't seem to have any trouble getting laid. What they -don't- see much of are the addicts who can't afford the habit, or who can't maintain.
-Using- is a choice. -Addiction- is not.
So you're saying that if you had the opportunity to work 5 hours and thus earn $40 more a week, you'd take the hours--knowing that you'd lose $75 a week in disability income by doing so?
I -went- to college before I turned 18, and I neither started school early nor skipped any grades.
(I was one of the 2 youngest in my high school graduating class--if I'd been born 6 days later, I'd likely have been the oldest in the graduating class following mine, excepting any kids who might have been held back and forced to repeat a year.)
By the way, this isn't the ordinary sort of polygraph that regular law enforcement and corporations have accessto--this is a very special polygraph which is 100% accurate and whose workings and whose very existence are a state secret, so don't kid yourself about trying to beat it.
My experience has been similar since I left the States 11 years ago, first in Australia and now in Sweden.
It would take a -lot- of systemic changes in the US before I'd consider going back there to live.
Who needs Wikipedia? The Stainless Steel Rat taught me how to beat a polygraph 30-something years ago.
There is an old saying: The first generation earns a fortune, the second generation sits on it, the third generations squanders it.
One can only hope that this will prove true for Kim Jong-Un also.
Plus [iPad] has a bigger screen that's much more suitable for textbooks.
I wanted to test this claim for myself, so I just measured the screen of my fiancée's iPad 2 and that of my Samsung Tab 10.2 with a tape measure.
iPad--20x15cm=300sqcm
Samsung--22x14cm=308sqcm
So--if you're talking about screen area--no, it's not.
If I misunderstood what you were comparing, my apologies. But in any case my curiosity is now satisfied.
Or perhaps not. Think about it.
I've been using Skype on Linux for years, and it's always worked pretty well for me.
(The latest update to the Android phone client, however, is a complete train wreck.)
I'm not going to waste my time having the wrong argument, over a flawed analogy. Have a nice evening.
Good luck driving from LA to Honolulu. Let us know how that works out for you.
When you decide the Constitution is not subject to reinterpretation, then you've demonstrated that you're a fundamentalist idiot.
Always draw your curves, then plot your reading.
