I get that in the UK the postman who carries the photo of your ex has to be chemically castrated, but Texas has ruled that this is a step too far. Intent matters and if you didn't know that a photo was taken without someone's consent then now you do and you need to get rid of it.
I was going to ask if that was london pay.
It's not much when you look at the cost of a room big enough to lie down in and the ability to get to work while still breathing.
Or maybe raping someone doesn't appeal regardless of what she looks like?
That would have been my second thought, once the sense of imminent personal danger had passed. So probably on the plane home.
Seriously, to me this sounds like a prime example of how evolution favours people who aren't completely shit. If you accept the offer then you're opening yourself to blackmail by someone who doesn't consider this kind of behaviour extreme. Fuck knows what he'll force you into six months down the line.
Doesn't say good things about their security credentials then.
I would expect the daughter to be a blackmail hook, never mind any moral issues.
If universities count then the laptop bag which I still use is the best, if not then the thorlabs t-shirt just for work-relevant attire with that mascot on it.
Worst is another one of those usb sticks that die the first time they get a quarter full. I think it was rigged to report a higher capacity than it really had.
Reads like a classic example of strategic incompetence.
It works for them and they can use their own incompetence as an excuse to keep it.
I meant what all of you said.
Seriously, you're all perfect. Though dealing with these snoopers does make me pray for the end of time.
My previous house managed 3Mbps on a good day. Based on the campaign for upgrades, several people were getting much worse.
200 meters from a major north-south route...
Are they even worth unlocking? At 1500 a pop to investigate the crime of being some annoying scrote who antagonised the wrong suit, it'd be preferable just to keep hold of it out of spite.
That was before.
In front of senators Zuck said they belonged on Facebook.
Not that I'm convinced belonging on Facebook is a complement, but from him I am confident it's an endorsement.
it should be a crime to allow the smart to trick the stupid into throwing elections.
It's been standard practice for thousands of years, how do you expect to stop it now?
I'm just waiting until people realise he also endorsed Diamond and Silk.
Don't get me wrong, lovely ladies. Not so keen on their politics, but man they are divisive.
The important thing to remember is having something in the name of your political movement or party doesn't turn you into the concept.
The DUP are not very democratic, the lib dems are not very liberal and antifa's actions are not opposing fascism.
... and to pass, of course.
This is the real reason so few people opt to become commercial pilots, You pay a phenomenal amount (35 grand is low) to train, and you have to support yourself in the meantime, and if you don't pass you lose it all.
My understanding is that there is a massive difference between individuals, probably too much to assess trends between genders without a huge study.
One theory is it has to do with polarised light. A small part of your eye can identify how light is polarised and polarisation is a good indicator of direction.
Obviously that would go away if you cover the eyes.
It would probably feel like when you're walking down a corridor and you know all the heat is coming from the left. There's no drag, just the thermoreceptors in your skin let you know it's that side.
Actually, do run it on the Daily Mail, and its sister publication the Metro. Let's find out what similarities there are between the two.
It's reassuring to learn that these days people are surprised by violent animal rights activism.
Animal rights activist too.
The labels keep on coming.
I bought an album on the service in 2013 and have no recollection of it, or of who the band are.
So let's just test whether this works...
Disclaimer: This filk may take severe liberties with the cyber conversion process, or may actually be more realistic than the one portrayed in Dr Who. Tradmarks included should be considered to be abused wantonly, I am not Adele and nor am I a Dell.
He's making a list,
checking it's right,
scoping out future
accident sites...
I've done a lot of filks in my time. Currently the only thing I have in my head is Adele threatening to stick wires in your brain, but I'll use the long weekend productively, then try to come up with a song at work next week.
It will do what always happens in these cases. Clean language will become offensive, again.
You know 'special needs' is used abusively by school children these days?
Can we remind them that Ruddy is an expletive in some parts of the world?
Then convince them that Amber Rudd is an even more offensive form of the term referencing discoloration due to being pissed on by everybody for years?
Videoconferencing is not an issue. We all know Zucky keeps his webcams covered at all times.
At times, currencies were backed by tangible resources such as gold or silver
Then the notes were stand-ins for the shiny metals that made up the real currency.
Do you need gold? It's not really that important for most people's lives compared to the importance of money. The only thing that gives money value is taxation, because everybody pays taxes and so everybody needs at least a little bit of money.
a Ponzi scheme dreamt up by tulip sellers to relieve the gullible of their cash which also happens to be a nice medium of exchange for crims
Which is essentially all a currency is.
Given that Blighty doesn't even seem to have adopted things like internal gears and chains to avoid ruining your suit, I don't see this taking off there any time soon.
The circle is known in politcal science as the horseshoe theory.
There's also the fishhook theory that argues everybody not on your side is the same kind of dick.
Now you mention it, Scott Adams kept insisting Hillary must have a mole in her campaign because of some of the basic mistakes she was making.
I'd assumed he was being facetious, but it fits what we now know about CA's modus operandi...
They could be said to be those people, but it would be inaccurate.
All I would say for sure is that the left doesn't trust corporations and the right doesn't trust government bureaucrats. Which leads to the bizarre situation in America where left wing Americans are demanding Trump control their free speech.
Left vs Right was created to arrange seating in 18th century France. It was never intended to be a decent representation of an individual's political views.
Safety from giving up liberty is not safety. The difference between a violation of safety and a violation of liberty is whether the perpetrator works for the government.
