I've never understood catch and release. You give up the payoff, a great fish dinner, and you torment the fish. Sadly, unless we can develop more/better fish farms, particularly for the more popular salt water varieties like tuna, the future of fish and fishing on our planet looks meek.

So, by that reasoning, someone should bomb Canada to show how your healthcare system does shit poor job of taking care of the survivors. Kinda sick if you ask me.

"We modeled our system after the british one."

Aka, it's a vicious cycle from whence there is no escape, like alcoholism or obesity. Harsh Kyle, true, but harsh.

“In my opinion…any officer who goes into action without his sword is improperly dressed.”

I have every intention of heading up there and buying one of these for my office wall should it pass.

"many of them direct at the new revolutionary fingerprint scanner"

I completely agree with your use case. That said, I do question if the $ is worth it for that small added convenience.

The article wasn't, but the title kinda was.

I've heard of GIS companies getting hired to do analysis of cities for heat reasons. They've found that if they can replace an overall percentage of concrete square footage with plants (think grass/trees/bushes in street dividers or on top of buildings) that they can significantly reduce the average temperature in…

Interesting quote. If there intention is really for this to be used by the average trial "user", as apposed to professionals maintaining trails, I'd say they've priced themselves out of there own market.

I get what u mean. I think we're circling around the same point using slightly different terminology. And I can't agree w/ you more on the price/value. To many questions about reliability given the added complexity when you can get a proven system for far less.

I've got a buddy who just returned from visiting SF for the first time. Sadly, what made the biggest impression on him was how dirty it was and the large number of homeless using the streets as a bathroom.

Two words for you my friend. Frosted Glass

True, but the rhino doesn't move the barrel to the 6'oclock position. Either way the barrel is still above the trigger finger. So if we look at the effect of recoil on your wrist as a simple lever machine, what they're effectively doing is shortening the lever by dropping the barrel. I wasn't trying to imply in my…

It's a revolver that fires out of the bottom instead of the top of the cylinder. In theory, it should reduce muzzle rise. As for just looking funky, well, it's Italian.

You've clearly never encountered a hostile with a knife before.

No argument on any particular point, other than to say that I don't think Macs, while still not as dominant in at least the business world, are not nearly as "niche" as they once where (much to my dismay). And yes, I wouldn't call Jobs an artist, but I'd certainly characterize his personality artistic.

True. But don't forget, the work done at NeXT would eventually go on to become the iMac, w/o which (along with Microsoft) saved Apple from going out of business. So I'll give Jobs this; the man knew how to create a brand, recognized talent, had vision and pushed his people in an attempt to achieve it. Sometimes…
