For those who missed the deal — TiVO regularly stocks refurbs themselves. Amazon’s price on the 1000 GB yesterday was only a dollar less. https://www.tivo.com/shop/outlet

The description on class-central.com for one course I was interested in included the following:

Of course they do! Would you be surprised if you walked out of the house completely naked and someone stopped you? (As a society we’ve decided you should wear clothes in public.) Likewise we’ve decided that a server’s wage is, in the majority of restaurants in the US, made up of a small base rate + tips from

Like it or not, you agree to it every time you leave your house.

Damn right you’re not. Your figures about the minimum wage do not apply to tipped workers.

Nope. As others have attempted to explain, tipping is part of the social contract you agree to when you go to a sit-down restaurant in the U.S. This is not a matter of opinion. If you don't like that expectation then stay home.

Because not all retailers have the EMV terminals installed, or if they do, the card processors haven’t certified the terminals. There are a lot of moving parts.

Indeed — that seems to be confusing some people here in the comments as well. “But I’ve always been able to enter a PIN when I swipe my debit card!” Not the same.

I run a small business. Our payment processing company gave us new terminals well before the October mandate, but by spring the card companies still hadn’t “certified” the terminals or whatever — meaning our customers still had to swipe.

Did she propose legislation banning guns except for Senators?

LMAO. You didn’t “prove” shit.

This blog post explains to enterprises how the product allows them to see where their (the enterprise’s) files have been. This is a problem how? Do you also worry about Apple/Microsoft/whoever makes your OS reporting information about you back to their central servers? Do you worry about the library keeping a list of

Do you have evidence that cloud-based backup providers like Crashplan are mining people’s personal data? Because otherwise this just sounds paranoid.

This is an excellent summation, and your comparison to the paper map is spot on. I’ve thought a lot about this and have to conclude that it’s simply because smartphones are relatively new that lawmakers and others have decided texting is the most dangerous thing in the whole world. I can almost excuse the draconian

Occasionally I’ll come across sales where they do actually want you to buy all 10 to get the deal. On the flip side, my grocery of choice regularly offers items “buy one, get one free” where single items ring half price.

Yes, Windows 7 is demonstrably worse than Windows 2. Who needs networking?!?
