Well, they've been, illegally, pursuing their own interest exactly as the people using the app without paying. I don't see anything excessive here; I'm not saying that I justify them of course.

I don't think it's a global problem; it's just asocial people who have little to none social/romantic experience, so they imagine their romantic life rather than living it.

from what I read, you completely lack basic nutrition knowledge, and this is the real problem, not the failed diets. I'm absolutely convinced that you would get an adequate fit starting to study very "standard" nutrition books and understan

+1 as well. most of the people with bad habits understands or (refuses to understand) what doing physical activity works out the symptom, not the cause. unfortunately, it's too easy to speculate on diets sitting on a chair.

That's the most common rhetoric example used in science circles. In real world, if those 670,000 people can't get enough food to get the basic nutrients, if they won't die from vitamine A deficiency, they will die of something else. The pro

Blanket reforms will never happen in real world, because we're talking about huge quantities of money involved - a blanket reform the way, say, "many people would like it", would cause a sudden big loss to loss to big & powerful entitie

Right now he's very likely been cut to pieces already, as previous bloggers have been in similar situations. Very sad, but this is how things now work in Mexico. The real name has probably been used as last desperate attempt to find any bit

Motivation is not fleeting; there are different motivations and different qualities. If you teach a dog chasing cars to be disciplined, it will still be a dog chasing cars, but just chasing one. The people you mention fails primarily becaus

They're not "just statistics", as they point to some interesting facts. Americans for example travel less and work more compared to other countries. "6 minutes of education" is definitively negative (although I would personally use "narrow

In the past, most of the people didn't spend time watching TV while eating junk food. And yes, I do count calories. I'm committed to staying fit, and counting is not an option.

People is not either autistic or socialite. Following the same (rhetoric) logic, "if the world was left to you autistic, humanity would extinguish in two generations tops".

For me it's been a disaster instead, having an N550 (if memory serves me well). Ubuntu used to take a very long time to boot (minutes); I couldn't even reliably watch videos. I was very surprised (and disappointed) though, to see than in Wi

I'm tempted to assume the opposite. I filter out lots of people, whose posts are very uninteresting for me - my assumption reflects my behavior, so the question is if the average user prefers to read everything for entertainment's sake, or

Watch out, you can't easily assume that it's not caused by general bad nutrition and lifestyle. Assuming that you're probably from the USA, where obesity is ramping up, from a (especially southern) European perspective, the eating culture o

As a matter of fact, the vehicle itself is "zero-emissions" and "invisible to the environment". I see your point, but first of all, it would be a very big step ahead if all the vehicles in cities wouldn't have toxic emissions. And second, s

It's funny. These kind of guys think they're badasses, while in reality, to an attentive eye, they're the opposite: people with an attention seeking disorder. Aside that the attention seeking is very obvious from the formatting of the text,

That's too much of a simplicistic view. I'll give an example. A family brings their children to McDonald's, often. McDonald's blasts large amounts of marketing in the children's head. The children grow up and become adults. The adults frequ

I'm really looking forward to new Ubuntu releases... NOT. As a matter of fact, Ubuntu's getting so much buggier and buggier with each release, that I'm just downgrading from Natty to Maverick. What a huge disappointment.
