Exactly. Everything worth buying was being snatched and resold before it even saw a store.

Many years ago when I first heard about this I tried scanning a $20 and yea, Photoshop gave me a stern warning and refused to be my accomplice.

Yes, this. Also, any good email client will strip out the graphics and just give you formatted text anyway. I use Fastmail's web interface and there's a "Load Images" button but I rarely click it. Best of both worlds.

Maybe the Segway really was the device that would revolutionize cities, it was just too far ahead if it's time, like the PalmPilot.

Yes, you are right. Bikes make sense only in dense urban areas or if you're relatively close to commerce or work. That's still a big minority of people, but getting onto bikes and out of cars is great where it's a possibility

Water issues in Flint and Jackson does not equal difficulty getting safe drinking water in the US. It means there were water system problems in Flint and Jackson. It's a big country.

Though like we witnessed with the twin towers, all you have to do is weaken them.

It actually IS a valid starting point. Generally when 90% of the stories that humans tell each other fall under certain patterns, it's OK to categorize and label them. That's all that the Hero's Journey that Campbell describe

The article says the research was based on the Gough Map. Just look at this thing. Quite impressive. http://www.geog.port.ac.uk/webmap/thelakes/large/ggh1.jpg

The complexity is astronomical, so I'm glad they're being overly careful. Once perfected I hope they keep up the cautiousness so we don't start seeing shuttle-type neglect in the program.

"their brand reputation has turned to mud" Meh. You're paying attention only one small side of the story. Most by far are pretty happy with the product for the price.

Considering cheating is practically an Olympics tradition even going back to ancient Greece, I'd guess a TON. Sad but true. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/ancient-history-cheat...

Riding your lack of ethics to the top doesn't always work out as planned.

This entire thread instantly devolved into political football humping. The problems within the new post-USSR Russia couldn't have been fixed by the US or the West. The roots of what Russia would become were already deeply set as the US

Explain, for instance, where you would have the captured leaders of ISIS tried? In a US court? Where then when they are found guilty? Into a US prison? Returned to their country of origin? There is a reason that after all the talk that Obam

I'd also be interested in the stories that Facebook did end up letting through that same week. It would probably not support Zucks explanation.

When you're running for president of the US and your son is in an overall shady bed with China and Russia it should matter. If Joe knew, it should at least be fair news, same if he didn't know.

You are correct overall that they are a legitimate way to trade for something with your attention but their application is so abused now. The push-back is worthwhile.

It's just a different revenue model than the usual ad garbage. You don't have to use it.
