My last 2 samsungs have been waterproof, and have headphone jacks. They are not hard to waterproof, its just 4 conductors in a sleeve.

I can sneeze almost on demand by thinking of specific things. But I agree, even with my 'ability' it is unsuited for communication. Even a grunt would be easier and more nuanced. Edit: made myself sneeze, took about 7 seconds.

Honestly, while I would not stake a hiring decision on the distinction, I see quite a difference in the two. Comparing a coders chosen habits to racism is a huge stretch.

Major, yes, top 20? LOL. Each passebger jet flight you take likely puts out more pollution than you will do in your car in years, as will a campfire. The hippies are a bit backward these days.

Can we crowdfund a militia to protect and secure archives for digitizing in conflict zones? We are losing too much priceless history to fools over ego.

I think this is just an early flash in the pan. The VC subsudies will fall off, regulations will be enforced or relegslated, and the real costs of operating will catch up with both providers and operators. We will be back to taxis, but now

You just made the textbook argument against minimum wage (assuming at-will employment). Which does hold water, however unpopular. The real argument seems to be if we continue to try to make protections for workers 'sensible', or l

But the usual iconograpics are too limiting, we made our own based on the communication types misheard from my psych class and or yoga instructor. The left swirl inherently represents the earth, gravity, lovehug force, thats intuitively the

Oh god, I remember setting a whole sone as my logoff somewhere in the win9x days, and it totally would. I had to hear the whole damn song just to reboot, by which time I had forgotten to change it. Annoyed my family for weeks.

Poorly ripping off an existing waning franchise was never going to make 10% of their global sales. The batman movie may be a metaphor for their downturn, but clearly not actualy a large factor.

Yup. Did this when my heat didnt get fixed for a month one winter. Was an easy case. Got a city inspector to come out and write it up first, but that might be harder in the case of floods.

Redefining a phrase to omit much of its common meaning is what got us here. I appreciate you helping to bridge the gap by translating, I am just bemoaning its nessessity.

I can already smell the breath of the alternative (read: fake) medicine version of this as I type. Is the liquortarian diet more effective than the fruitatarian diet? You betcha! Just look at this study!

I am sure ssd and flash recovery will keep them plenty busy.

The general amount of bs can be very high dealing on CL, even giving stuff away. From scammers and spammers, to the usual suspect who no shows after you rushed home from work to meet them in your free hour that day.

Even craigslist, your local community board (real or virtual) or just your curb can be enough. Just be sure to clearly define what is free, lest you accidentally donate your mailbox, puppy and fountain.

Are you so nonconfrontational you were unable to ask for what you wanted? If a contractor wont do the work, find another. Don't just accept what some random guy tells you. Conversely, don't blame your contractor for your inability

If you were paying for even half your impact on the land, most people would be taxed out of California. Why? You use it, you need to pay for it.

Man, that just kinda feels dirty, but its true. Even for uber! An (ex?)uber driver I know in a semi rural area now just connects directly with locals and runs a charter to and from the nearby city, as those were most of his fares. It also k

So what are the conditions where it hurts more? You set up the problem and then left us hanging...

If the fov was a 1/4 mile, and the plate near the center, wouldnt that halve the calculated velocity? I feel like I am missing the actual data here.

And vice versa, chases out many with the hard skills, because they are socially lacking. They want some weird in between that doesnt seem to exist in nature.

Sounds like they simply took the job for less.

But which 'experts'? If the public doesnt already know, anyone well spoken can be propped up as an 'expert' for either side. With the lack of critical media, the public are left to decide with woefully incomplete informa

LARGE ISPs. The small ones are fighting tooth and nail to survive and bring the local people better internet. It has to be folly to be in it for the money at many local scales unfortunately. Thats why I get one choice of 2mb internet here.

Well, they did purposely make a different standard. But where does the (sometimes still required by studios) DRM go now? Its not a direct comparison it that sense.

Because this is a cheaper and easier way of introducing it? Sure his idea is unlikely, and unfounded, but its not stupid. Putting the quality of experince to a lower standard (audio conversion and quality), even more in the hands of 3rd par
