There are a few people counter-arguing this claim, but I wholeheartedly agree. I haven't tried to tie in more recent versions of WP7 ("Mango" and up) with Exchange, but I had encountered the same certificate issue. Yes, we have a self-signed certificate and this has never been a problem for iOS and Android devices (or hell, even Outlook and Mail.app). The WP7 phones, however, refused to accept the certificate with a warning and no "accept it anyway" option. They were thus unable to connect with Exchange. We have since resolved the issue, but the whole ordeal was ironic...
The ones which bother me are the sites which limit the length of your password. My bank limits it to 14 characters which is shorter than the password I like to use...
Yeah, unfortunately I don't see us finding a way to be proactive about an incoming black hole. On the other hand, I'd be pretty darned curious to see what is on the other side of it...
If I want to try KDE I just download the kubuntu distribution?
Many here will argue that Fedora or openSUSE will give you a much better KDE experience, out of the box. My personal experiences with Kubuntu's take on KDE4 have not been positive, unfortunately...
Random question - How come Ubuntu 12.04 has a 5 year support system instead of the usual 3 year cycle?
12.04 is an LTS (Long Term Support) release. This means that it will be supported and patched for a longer period of time than their regular incremental releases, and this works well for people who don't feel inclined to go through the upgrade process every six months. It tends to be the more stable route for those who just want to work and don't want to have to fiddle with their computer more than they need to. It is also possible to upgrade directly from one LTS to the next. Every two years in April, they release a new LTS.
So IE8, by default, unless it's explicitly told to do it correctly, will render HTML according to its old, quirky, WRONG way of doing it. Is that what you're telling me?
That is not what I am telling you, though that is true. Please understand that I am not trying to defend IE. In fact, I avoid using it whenever possible and encourage other people to do the same. Its default behaviors, while not as bad as they once were, are still substandard. It doesn't account for mistyped code as well as other browsers, which is why it has failed the ACID tests for so long.
What I AM saying is that it is not difficult to employ good practice and have consistent results regardless of which modern browser you use. People should be doing things like specifying their doctypes anyway. It doesn't cost $100,000 to hire a web developer who can adhere to good practice like that.
You would think so, but the next time you are at a restaurant or theater, glance around and see how many people are buying and drinking soda. It's everywhere...

They're only angry because they can't see in 3D.
It's not just the offspring he could start producing, it's the offspring he may have already produced.

No mangos in your diet, eh?
The ability to "dock" a laptop with your USB devices, LAN and monitor using just one little Thunderbolt connector is also an attractive option.
OEMs have been slower no doubt because some have wondered if I was worth implementing.
Maybe so, but what about Thunderbolt?
I thought it was the plural of Apple's short-lived educational Mac...
As opposed to...? Do you know of a better method?
Yeah, I embraced smartphones as far as their ability to provide e-mail access, a web browser and GPS/map functions. Very useful.
Downloadable apps tailored for specific needs? Okay, that's cool.
Widgets, animated icons, voice command assistants, high-intensity visual effects... Now you're losing me.
Relax, it's just marketing fluff. Every company does this with their products.
I'm curious what you mean by "getting stuff done" when using a phone, though. What "stuff" are you trying to "get done" that iOS can't do for you?

Even remained consistent with significant figures. =)
Not to mention the sequel, Kelvin 505.

TL;DR
I do not think that means what you think it means.
Oh, and whoosh.
Eh, Wikimedia is concerningly infested with porn anyway. Apparently.
I just fear FF 3.6 becoming the new IE 6...
That statement implies that black holes should not be ignored... not that they should be combated.
I'm actually surprised that this news post hasn't already sparked more of the racist comments that have shown up here lately.
(although "Collision" is a bad word since nothing actually hits anything else)
I like to think of it as merging.
