I went from thinking that was real, to fake, then back to real, then fake again and now I'm confused and just want a drink.

Alleged sexual harassment aside, I actually feel much more at home working in an environment like this. By my nature I'm a very competitive person, I work best when I'm pressured to do so, I like money, and I like partying. That e

I think you're confusing an election with public discourse. You can vote in anonymity and no one has to know who you voted for. You can't get on social media (for example) and openly support anything even remotely Trump without co

Try saying any of those things on social media and see how far you get. If you don't immediately get Zucc'ed you'll be mobbed by libs screaming and frothing at the mouth.

Not arresting someone who is doing something illegal (drugs, or anything else) then sets a precedence that it's ok to engage in that behaviour. So while not arresting that one particular person might be beneficial to them, it doesn

I hear 'retraining' brought up a lot, what does this entail? What do people get retrained in and do they want to be retrained in that thing?

Why would he have to destroy it all? Couldn't he give it away to someone who might need it or at least be able to use it? Just seems like a bit of a dick move all in the name of "art"

Oh it goes way deeper than that. I used to work at a mid-sized business, maybe 220 staff at peak and they wanted SAP as a straight up CRM - cost for the building was about $120k + licencing (I don't know how much that was). But there i

I've always found Google Play Services was the #1 battery drain on my S7, 15-20% each day even on a brand new/stock build.

I'll have to say with SAP, it's really down to how it's implemented. I've seen AWFUL implementations of it (like the one you're describing) and I've seen amazing ones, generally the ones either done by SAP them

I agree, I'd love to see another BB OS phone or two but I think the Passport was their last stand. The Android phones are good and the BB apps work well even on other phones, but it's just not the same. I'll still follow the

Odd answer, but probably a Blackberry Passport. Clean and sturdy design, OS is on point (assuming you dont use many 3rd party apps), keyboard is brilliant - it leverages the benefits of a physical keyboard and adds the flexibility of touchs

The line is drawn when you make a site, test it, notice that it runs like a pig, and then think to yourself "You know what, this is fine". There's an obvious difference between an honest mistake and just plain incompetence wi

Email is fine, don't disrupt it. Make it better instead. Blackberry got it mostly right with Hub - get all your emails, messages, whatevers into one place and let you work out how you want to organise it all. Something like that but a

Ok? Cool? If you can be bothered to go back and re-read my last comment, you'll notice I never once mentioned guns or even expressed a passing interest in comparing gun death rates.

The statement was "There are no killings in cities", which is clearly not true - there ARE killings in cities. There are probably less overall than in America, but I really don't care enough to check.
