Perhaps Sony should have gone with inspired by a true story instead. "I like when they say a movie is inspired by a true story, because that's weird; it means the movie is not a true story, it was just inspired by a true story.

If I remember correctly, the Marines use amphibious assault ships that don't have conventional runways (such as on Navy aircraft carriers) to take off/land on thus the need for a VTOL aircraft. A VTOL wouldn't be necessary fo

It will be the same as it is now. The restaurant will find ways to get you to leave if you only spend $10 and stay another 2 hours. The amount you stay is directly proportional to how much you spend. If you stay 5 hours but you bought a $10

Unless Lyft didn't charge for rides then regardless of how they describe it, fundamentally it is still a pay-per-ride service (i.e. taxi) and still subject to the taxi industry regulations (which I don't necessarily agree with but

I agree. I like Lyft but what the author feels is sterile and walled off about Uber appears to me as organization and professionalism. Likewise, what the author applauds about Lyft as being unique and perhaps more engaging appears to me as

I guess I don't see how that would matter if the website were new. You still would have to obtain a username list prior to new users signing up (assuming they use the same password as the one you're trying) and even then you'

I'd be concerned that if hackers found out their login attempts were increasingly rate-limited (2 seconds, 4 seconds, 8 seconds, etc.) then they would just use that instead as a DoS attack and run that rate limit up to weeks or months

Are we actually more narcissistic or does it just seem that way since we tend to be more open with our thoughts and feelings and because were able to share that with a much wider audience?

My apologies for a bad choice of words. I meant to convey that maybe the writer has become cynical or jaded, perhaps even bitter.

Narcissism has become like the word "offended." People become offended at the slightest thing and folks are accused of being narcissistic for saying the slightest thing that is going positive in their lives.
