I-95 to Route 1 is by far the most direct route from Portland ME to Logan. If you followed I-95 to I-90 without diversion then you went at least 20 miles out of your way.

It seems like you are under the illusion that Trump is something other than a catchphrase spouting blowhard racist 1%er who doesn't give a shit about anyone or anything but Trump. Renewable energy is important, Trumps view from his golf course isn't.

Available all over the place, a toner refill kit gives you a bottle of toner, a soldering iron with a circular cut-out tool attached and some stickers. Cut a hole in the cartridge, fill it with ink, stick a sticker over the hole and throw it back into your printer. Works for me.

A more realistic method of getting corporations to actually obey laws is to hold the people who run those corporations individually responsible for the malfeasance, starting with the CEO.

I can't let this go without comment, I work with Java and Eclipse every day.

"Minor things like your email client"

You obviously have never been forced to use Lotus Notes. I spend about 10 minutes every day waiting for that POS software just to update it's display. Another 20 minutes a week working out how to do something that is banal in any real email client. That's over an hour each week wasted on crappy software. One hour of my time, especially at the companys expense, is not minor.

When you spend all day working with software, and a lot of time with a particular app like an email client, the choice of software has a huge impact on your work environment.

Minor: no. Major.

i love idiocracy references

Gotta agree with that. I was moved.

You get a chance to fly into freaking space (ok LEO, but it's still space) and you're going to say no because the craft needs some maintenance? I'm going to guess you never bungie-jumped or sky dived.
