Why not acceptance pride? Put a rainbow flag behind this icon and be proud to support all love is love.

Geez really? I had no idea that pedestrians were so careless, what is it about larger trucks that makes people jump out in front of them.

I like to see things as an opportunity, and I think we can use this as a lesson to do things differently. Like, let's make trucks louder so you hear them before you see them. More Turbo, and how about vertical tail pipe stack. Next we can increase the number of lights, and make them brighter so that everyone can see. Let's add more cameras and computers so the driver can see their blind spots simply by looking at the command console screen. We can even make these features available for free for a small amount of non invasive advertising.

Do you remember how trains solved the problems of cows derailing trains. They put a guard on the front. So let's make an even bigger steel bumper.

This sounds like the trolly problem. If you go down track A, then there are likely to be some horrible family murders. Or track B you will upset the NRA crowd.

... Wow this Rahini guy does sound like a poster child for this law, but

ultimately the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the law is unconstitutional because there was nothing like it in the 1790s

Wix.com Ltd. (Hebrew: וויקס.קום, romanized: wix.com) is an Israeli software company,

The conflict aside, WIX is a corporation with strong political and theological roots. Even if the technology is good, choosing that platform comes with baggage.

The XPS line was popular at work. Desk candy to compete with Mac books. However the engineering did not complete at all. The battery was the biggest fail point, we had a high percentage of battery issues under warranty, and they would take months to get replaced by the vendor.

We stopped buying them, if someone wants desk candy these days it's mostly Mac book pro as expensive as your budget can handle.

Several things come to mind:

  • by giving your password to someone, you are essentially consenting to them accessing your data
  • your data should be backed up before you bring a device in so it can be wiped off if they need to access the OS
  • certified technologists exist and they have to adhere to a code of conduct
  • best buy and the ilk do not hire technologists... you get what you pay for
  • if a technician is paid to back up your data, then they need access to your data, if they find porn and if it's bad, they will report you

I'll write a letter to MP. That should fix it.

Currently, 3kg (6.6lb) [of carrots cost] 15 riyals ($4.12). We can sell 3kg [of 3D-printed carrots] for 10 riyals ($2.75), only for carrots

Because, (Waves hands) 3d printed carrots. Molds are to costly, and take to much time to use.

Like the old timey chicken nuggets with brown meat.

Looking good. Now if they could just tax the rich we'd be set.

The national unemployment rate was unchanged at 5.5 per cent in August amid a gain of 40,000 jobs, Statistics Canada said Friday.

Canada’s population growth outpaced job gains in the month, according to the agency.
