We don't have caps here in Saskatchewan on Sasktel that I'm aware of.

Do you mean the adage or quote (usually attributed to Otto von Bismarck) "Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made." What do you mean that it applies literally, exactly? How would that be interpreted figuratively rather than literally?

Once when I was much younger. I became enraged by my mouse that was acting erratically. Using the cable I slammed it on the desk thus destroying it. I noted soon after that the plug had worked itself out partially and was the reason it was acting strangely (or at least could have been the problem). Suitably chastened

It bothers me on principle. I don't want to be tracked by some company that "just wants to sell me stuff" that they think I want. I don't want targeted ads that are inevitably not of any interest to me. Their algorithms are terrible. As it turns out I use adblockers and other things so I don't have to concern myself

I just use my wifi in my house. I've never had a problem just pulling stuff off of whatever device to use on the others. I use whatever program I want to play the media but stream it via wifi.

Bigger phones are just fine since there are lots of smaller phones available. Having a variety of phones to choose from is better for consumers than having just one. That being said, there's a trend to larger phones due to demand, apparently.

650? That's nothing. Ikea furniture is made up of millions of pieces of sawdust all glued together into slabs then coated with numerous plastic or wood pieces called veneer and...

This system has not had to deal with my all-amoebas-all-the-time style (lack of style) of drawing. E.g. that amoeba is actually a dog, that one is actually a house.

Helium is already scarce and getting scarcer. These discs are going to get more and more expensive as the days go forward. There's already a movement to restrict it's use to "more important" uses (e.g. MRI machines and other scientific pursuits).

All the phones fit in an ordinary pocket. Even the comparatively huge Galaxy Note fits in a pocket. I'm not sure what kind of pockets you have on your clothes but you should get a different tailor or buy off the rack.

If you go to the article (that this article is a bad rehash) it states that this is already in use and has saved £72,000 in the first year in one city. I suspect that there are cultural differences between the Netherlands and the USA where it probably wouldn't work.

They're posters for $40 and up. That's affordable, I suppose, but they seem way overpriced to me. I realize they're posters of artwork but they're still just posters.

So a retailer needs a near-infrared laser to test the currency they get? How expensive are they and what is the likelihood of them purchasing it and using it? Interesting though.

Only in Japan. It would have to be 5 times as big for the average North American appetite.

The cost to make it is of very little interest except to the manufacturer (or perhaps an investor). What will it cost a person to buy one would be of much greater interest to your readers.

Kids will do this sort of thing, apparently. What really gets me though is that these big corporations that we all rely on in some fashion are so indifferent to security. Some of the exploits he used are really old and yet are still functional. What's remarkable is that these "hacks" don't occur more frequently than

Does this unicorn actually exist?

Did a quick check (something I should have done before posting) and it turns out that in some places a heifer is a cow that has had only one calf whereas I only know it as a cow that has never calved. Alas. So a cow that has had one calf would, obviously, have produced milk.

It's economics. The purpose of the packaging is primarily to protect it until it gets to the consumer. Why should they "fix all these awful little problems" when you buy it anyway. It's not like people are refusing to purchase processed foods because of these perceived difficulties. However, while the video was

Curious calling it "heifer". While a heifer does have an udder it does not produce milk. I guess the average person doesn't know that though. For most people it's merely a word associated with bovines.
