And remember that doing anything other than this makes you an environmental terrorist directly responsible for destroying the entire planet. You monster.
This report is not based on sales but a survey by a company called 'Impress R&D'. I have no idea what their definition of smartphone is, but I think it might be self-reported by the surveyee whatever phone they were using judging by the random-looking nature of their list (ie. having the Nokia N82 & E61 but no others).
What I do know is the sample size:
Summary of the Survey
PHS mobile phone user trends smartphones......Valid sample size: 3,004 valid responses
which is large but not huge. I wonder what the raw sales data actually is?
Yeah, it's not like the US imprisons people for years without charge ignoring their human rights under the Geneva convention for political reasons (in Cuba no less).
You're probably thinking of Nahmanides aka Ramban who lived 800 years ago. His theory is the 6000 odd years since Adam were preceded by the 6 days of creation, except each instance of creation was not a 'day' but a cycle from chaos to order and back again that lasted billions of years, and that the entire universe was created in a big bang. Even that time itself was created in this event. All by interpreting the deeper meaning in the holy texts, which would make these ideas even older.

That's Dr. Arthur B. Robinson, Dr. Noah E. Robinson, and Dr. Willie Soon to you. The first two are chemists and the last a physicist, all have PhDs and have published in a range of peer reviewed journals. You will need to come up with a better rationale than that.
Yet you have fallen prey to the same black and white thinking the GP was criticizing. Assuming all climate change skeptics are on the payroll of big oil is ludicrous, as is your suggestion that all scientists who are not skeptical have irrefutable data even when they refuse to disclose that data.
Having a PhD does qualify you to hold an opinion, but it doesn't magically make that opinion valid, just as not having a PhD does not disqualify you from having a valid opinion. The problems you see in free speech pale in comparison to the problems with censorship.
The answer is to engage in critical thinking no matter the source, and not to give too much weight to any authority or lack thereof.
That would be interesting, but these don't look much like DCT blocks used in JPEGs. here's an example. It works in a similar way though, presenting enough of the right cues to allow our eyes and brains to fill in the gaps.
Are you seriously suggesting it's a good idea that anyone who has ever shoplifted should never be let near a shopping centre ever again in their life? In your think of the children rant did it ever occur to you that giving people who are in a position to abuse their authority tools to track and observe a childs every move is a terrible idea? Do you want your child to be living in a panopticon?
Really, we're missing something important here. Animals communicate fine with other species, yet we have no idea where to start to translate their thoughts as expressed in their body language, scents and cries. We've moved too far from that baseline. Self critique has always been a weakness of the scientific method, it's high time for some holistic science.
Screw that, time to undercut them. I hereby offer my entire Yahoo search history for the low low price of $25! From federal governments down to local councils, now is the time to invest in a database of my transactions! If you don't start keeping a secret folder on me then you're not one of us, and if you're not with us... well, let's just say you don't want to go there. So think of the children and order today!
Just because one researcher commits the "biggest fraud in physics in the last 50 years" that happens to involve transistors doesn't mean all such research is fradulent and there is no reason at all from your link to be more skeptical than normal about this research.
Yes, if I can't get a computer game I want I won't break the law by importing it (which probably wouldn't break the law anyway to get a personal copy), I'll grab a rifle and shoot a politician...
Neither was a joke, firstly theorems often take pages to prove even though they glisten lke a perfect jewel in the mind and you can't squeeze that into a margin. Secondly it seems to be a code that still puzzles cryptographers because they are far too constrained. We might need a clueless blogger to figure it out after all.

Better headline:
iPhone nabs 46% of respondents in a survey of 3000 Japanese smartphone owners. Sales figures not included.

Redmages are the best class. Swords, sorcery and a pimp hat!
I tried that, and now I'm just scared.
Except the point the GP was making is that the content wouldn't be in Wikipedia in the first place, so it's accuracy is hardly relevant.
You can have both malice and incompetence, one doesn't rule out the other.

Why not simply stone them to death as per Leviticus 24:16?

No, Apples program involves tracking sales of black polo-neck jumpers.

Looking at this it seems most if not all of them do have a gradient, just a majority have a subtle one.

Strangely enough you can also detect pegasi by throwing rocks at them. True story.
Yeah, well, I could make one over a million times bigger than yours, so beat that!

It's called dd. Good luck with it.
