you don't have to be able to "afford" a lawyer when you have a open and shut case for a huge contingency fee

you forgot to quote the good part

quote:

"I'm amazed by how sensitively people responded to some of the privacy issues," Teller explains, expressing frustration about the backlash against Glass in public, given the prevalence of mobile video. "When someone walks into a bar wearing Glass... there are video cameras all over that bar recording everything." If it were around a year ago "they'd be Meerkatting," Teller joked.

why would anyone be offended by my silent camera eyewear? it's no different from strangers visibly waving phones at you, or security cameras!!!!

lol if you think anyone will take the word of a poor against a rich white male in a $3000 suit with an expensive lawyer.
if he were really guilty he wouldn't bother spending the money, he'd settle out of court. :smugbert:

large companies are so terrified of HR lawsuits that they keep terrible people employed for years to avoid the appearance of a discriminatory firing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8q0yZomXuSw

they didn't bother matching the tempo/beat of the music with what the people are doing on-screen so everybody in the ad either looks like they have no sense of rhythm.

they hosed up the diegetic soundtrack so badly that it broke through to being non-diegetic

yeah, it's a good product

setting up my chromecast was loving insane though, everything would fail spectacularly if i tried to do it from a pc or mac

the phone app worked fine, though

there's literally no technical reason why one would work and not the other

did anyone watch that reality show with billy mays and it's all about people bringing their hair-brained ideas to the As-Seen-On-TV infomercial guys

it's like shark-tank but with more reality TV to it and for like Snuggie-tier garbage

there was one episode iirc (i didn't really watch it, i don't remember where i saw this) where the "inventor" wants to make a bowl that separates your cereal and your milk so your cereal doesn't get too soggy

lol if you're an adult eating cereal in the first place.. hmm

then there's the iTie which is a tie that clips to your shirt so it never gets out of place and you can put your iPod in it

well the iTie guy wants demo his product so says "hold my legs" and tries to do a hand-stand but cartwheels right into billy mays' head and knocks him over and he hits a door knob

it's a google metaphor
