Ah cool. The Starbucks in Shanghai didn't have wifi when I was there. Good to see it changing - slowly.

And I wouldn't put it past the CIA to perform an extraordinary rendition since he can be easily plucked from a cafe in Bolivia. Harder to do one from Russia.

Having recently sold some furniture on CL, the number one problem buyers said was "I want this but can you deliver?" Nobody has transportation for big furniture. It's a source of friction between buyers and sellers for sure.

I looked at your site briefly. Great idea, similar to patio11's Bingo Card Creator site. Are you doing any A/B testing at all? I think you should be able to ramp up your sales by being more active managers of the site, instead of

The article fails to mention the main reason food is shaped "inefficiently": serving size. Besides being cooked in the can (as egypturnash points out), a can of tuna contains two sandwiches of tuna. A jar of tomato sauce contains

I used the name "Unreal" as an internet handle before the game Unreal came out. First come, first serve - I guess I should have gone after them.

Terms of service are a contractual agreement between a service and its users. There's no laws being broken, but it's breach of contract. Your legal counsel would know that I suspect.

Nice design, but I'm not sure I like the Y-meter myself. I don't like when websites/apps change to hide information or remove detail. My eyes already do a pretty good job discerning big numbers from small numbers. Now I have

I'm not going to presume to know anything about you, but as soon as your system interfaces with human beings, your system needs to adapt to human nature. You can't say "there's no excusing it" and "cause of the

Not really. They rented you exclusively an antenna at their location, and you can use it to watch over the air TV. There was no rebroadcasting technically, which is how they hoped to get around the law.

Apologies for the side-track, but I once had a boss offer to give me "unlimited vacation days" as a colloquialism for firing me after complaining when he took away some vacation days company-wide. Good to see the phrase has evolve

It's not pedantic. Liberty is definitely one of those rights that isn't 100% clear. The law is sometimes unfair/rough when it comes to balancing the rights of the individual against the rights of the state to protect against

People guilty of crimes should be tried and prosecuted. Judges should impose the sentence, and for serious crimes that probably includes a jail sentence which is the ultimate restriction of movement. If that also includes restricting their

From the article it seems like the judge has said that the right to freedom includes the ability to travel out of the country or across country. It's just not reasonable to require some segment of the population (500-20,000 people) to

I might question that statement. Being a passenger on an airplane requires you to accept a certain amount of responsibility. A person unable to behave properly and/or refrain from harming others in some way (angry, drunk, high, insane,
