I don't think you realize how expensive first class flights are... we're talking $5000 per flight, minimum, with some exceptions. International obviously, not domestic, which is actually business, not first.

I've paid for years, and my experience has gotten significantly worse. Almost every feature that I used has either been deprecated or reduced to mobile only. I'll eventually take my business elsewhere, but I haven't invested the time yet to look for a reasonable replacement.

Older voters are far less likely to use social media as there primary news source and they have a significantly higher voter turnout rate. That completely ignores the fact that most people choose to listen to there own pre-established biases. A conservative is much more likely to see and believe a video of looters and think that all the protests are riots, while a liberal is equally likely to watch and believe a video of peaceful protests sabotaged and turned violent.

Anyone able to explain this to someone without a decent grasp of the subject? I tried to do some quick research into quark generations and it didn't help at all.

It's because of size limitations within the phone, both with the camera (having a lens that can extend takes up much more space than having multiple lenses), and the sensors for the camera.

Child porn, really? Do you have to destroy your argument with such hyperbole?

Incorrect. There are a number of strict liability crimes that have significant jail sentences. The most common of which is statutory rape. A number of crimes relating to classified documents are strict liability as well.

He has a wife and two kids.

If I remember the chain of events correctly... someone posted a parody of Rusty's wife/girlfriend, something offensive to him in some way. He locked down registration and that started a chain reaction that caused the site to spiral downward. Of all the things I miss from kuro5hin, it has to be LocalRogers that I miss the most.

" If college presidents were to divide up their pay and write out checks to all their students, the per-person payout would be fairly low, amounting to no more than $300 per student."

The article is about the cost of overall administrative overhead, not just college presidents. The summary itself is even more misleading, as it attempts to compare base salary's between two very disparate fields. A CEO of a normal "wall street" company makes on average 20% of there income as salary. The rest of there income comes from bonuses, benefits and incentives. A large percentage of which is in the form of stock, something a college will not offer.

If it was a good thing, it would simply require a factory reset, and a notice of the lack of encryption capabilities. Instead they chose to destroy your property.

Ah yes, the old argument that consent can be revoked after the fact, for any reason. Welcome to the new world of being an adult, where you no longer have to live with your bad decisions.

I love that idea. Although I think it should be a longer and more comprehensive course. Examples of other topics that could be included:

Teaching men and women how to dress if they don't want to get raped

How to never make a decision that turns out badly

I'm sure if we pool our heads we could come up with more useful ways to blame victims! I'd suggest "how not to be a minority" but I'm not sure that, that's teachable unless you think we could get the budget for makeup lessons as well?

Really, what's the difference between making a copy of yourself, and going to sleep? It may seem like they're completely different concepts, but think about happens when you sleep. Your self shuts down, eventually you dream and than wake up, but for all intents and purposes it may as well be a new you.

Will the real Brianna Wu ever show up and actually answer questions? I did thoroughly enjoy reading these obviously fake, asinine question/answer pairs though, so thanks for the laugh!
