No when you sign a petition you saying that you think the issue is worthy of voting on, not that you agree or disagree - only that you want the matter settled by the voters.
Comment Re:why would you need a laptop in a movie theater? (Score 1) 438
Just last weekend seeing ZombieLand, The mall has free wireless that is quite fast, so I arrived early did some surfing while my laptop updated. Then went into the theater.
Just about anyplace I travel to I bring my netbook as I am on call all the time.
If places in the US do this, I will have to stop going to the movies. Though I doubt they will see my netbook in the little pocket of my bag.
Submission + - "Terminator Vision" is here for the iPhone (bbc.co.uk)
musefrog writes: The BBC is reporting that so-called Augmented Reality has arrived — in the UK at least.
From the article:
"Via the video function of a mobile phone's camera it is now possible to combine a regular pictorial view with added data from the internet just as the fictional Terminator was able to overlay its view of the world with vital information about its surroundings. For example, UK-firm Acrossair has launched an application for the iPhone which allows Londoners to find their nearest tube station using their iPhone."
The page features an impressive video demonstrating AR in action.

I dont know where these people work in the us, but I have 6 weeks every year, and 16 weeks saved up (thats the max I can save up).
That coupled with 14 holidays 6 personal days, and I believe I have saved up 14 months of sick time things are not that bad in the good old USA.
Or maybe I just know how to haggle at job interviews.
