He attacke Google! LEt's GET HIM! I dion't caer if what he said was accurate...since like Google, you AGREE to use the LG TV when you buy it! GET HIM ANYWAY! Howe DARE this article suggest that a company founded by two men whose penises I dream of sucking every night is not working for my best interest! I mean, sure...they have built themselves into a third of a TRILLION dollar company based SOLELY on selling as much of my information as they can possibly get out of me. And now they re trying to force people to give more and more by pushing the failure that is Google+ on people! But I don't care! I am sure Sergey's semen tastes delicious! So no one can say anything bad about them!
Just because this guy (whose curent movie SUCKS, by the way) says that that is what he wants to do in the future does not mean he will be successful. Let's revisit this in or even 10 years and see just how many movies that have bypassed the studios have been even REMOTELY successful. And how many directors who have never made a studio picture are actually living off their movie earnings.
The reason why all bills were itemized in the past is because no one had unlimited calling. If you still have a phone service where you pay for long distance, you still get an itemized bill.
As for there being no competition...sure there is. You just don't WANT what the others offer. But that is an absurd leap from "no competition" That is like saying that Burger King has no competition because you prefer a Whopper and no one else offers one.
Bullshit. There are SEVERAL alternatives. More than in most industries. You just don't LIKE the others because you are a spoiled little 5 year old who not only likes the shiny...but you think you are ENTITLED to getting a shiny new gadget free every two years. Otherwise, there are VERY reasonable pricing plans available by some of the smaller non-major providers. You just can't get an iPhone (though you can get a Droid on some) and you have to pay for it yourself.
Hey dumb fucks! The TAXES on fuel are used to PAY FOR THE ROADS!
Go ahead and run on fuel without paying taces. but don't you fiucking dare go anywhere near the ROADS that I pay for then you worthless peices of shit.
The government has no problem with this fiuel.
But of course., WORTHLESS web sites like this, an untalented "journalists" who have no jobs so they rely on internet have to make up bogus stories hoping that there are enough lemmings to lap it up like they do a man's seme's in the alley.
Zero slow down in sales? You are not good in math, are you? Let's say it is 400,000. In one month. A "zero slow down in sales" would mean 2.8 million by the end of June. They are figuring a 75% reduction after Christmas.
Yet somehow I bet you are one of hte idiots who thinks that Apple will sell 9 million computers next year based on the fact that this quarter they are expecting to sell a record high 2.25 million. And Apple fans thinks that they will sustain even GREATER sales rates for an entire year than they got during their BEST holiday season.
OK, so that 1 million by June is "only a small sliver" of the overall market.
You know how big that "small sliver" would be? Almost the EXACRT same size of he sliver of hte computer market that Apple currently has.
Hmmmm, achieving about 3% market share after 6 months, or achieving 3% marketshare after over 25 YEARS, including being the market leader at one point?
So...you can't have it both ways, fanboys. If the Zune is afailure, that Apple computers is an even BIGGER one.
The roundabout in my town was replaced becuase it was the WORST area for accidents in the entire city. ESPECIALY for non-traditional users, like cyclists, nad motorcyclists, and pedestrians.
This article is compelte bullshit. IT is simply not true. "city planners" have NOT come to this conclusion. Maybe one has. But you can always find one person who calims to be an expert who says the most ridiculous things.
I have several traffic simulation programs that are not commercially available, as I have done this very thing for a living. I've run hundreds of simulations for dozens of traffic scenarios for difffernet types of intersections.
Guess what? ZERO times out of those hundreds of simulations has it been determined that no light is a better alternative. There are always more accidents, FAR more delays, etc.
Ooooh, but one moron who got a degree and therefore thingks he is a city planner said otherwise! Right.

The answer to both will be virtually zero.
So...by your idiotic way of thinking, we should NEVER enforce laws, since people still still break them?
No wonder you are a blogger for a crappy website and don't actually earn a living with your writing.

Do you really not realize that there ARE people who have such a basic phone plan that they get charged for all calls made? Including local?

Cars DO obey traffic signals in NY City. You just made that up.
Plus...have you SEEN NY City traffic? (Honestly, I feel you are lying about growing up there.) IT is anything BUT smooth.
There is not another city in the world that would WANT what NY City has.
