You can do this, after app updates. I had a 2013 Moto G, and you can listen to FM radio on Bluetooth, as long as you have a wired headphone plugged in.
I've tried with an audio cable without headphones, and it works; but perhaps because the connector is low-quality, the phone thinks I'm pressing the headphone remote button, which makes the radio randomly pause.
This is specific to Motorola, which seems to record the analogue radio output, and then sends it through Android's audio system as digital audio. The app can also record FM broadcasts. This does sometimes mess up the system audio output, but stopping the radio app Activity usually fixes it.
I also remember that installing CyanogenMod on the Nexus One would enable its FM radio, but there is no recording or Bluetooth functionality.
That's a lot of popular websites, sure, but how many of these websites are commonly used in China? How many of these websites even have a Chinese version? After all, not everybody speaks English.
LinkedIn has entered the Chinese market, but it's not as well-known as local sites such as 51job, Pokemon games still aren't available in Chinese, and wordpress.org is only of interest to people who self-host blogs (wordpress.com has been blocked for a couple of years). The rest, few have even heard of.
China has its own web ecosystem, so blocking these websites has only minimal impact to the typical user. It would be developers and expats who will bear the most impact.
IRL's approach seems to be: have gamers to do something they don't want (tagging photos), in order to get something they want (games). Which seems reeeally close to what ReCAPTCHA is doing (read unscannable words, so you can sign up for accounts). (Although tagging disaster areas will need more training than reading mungled text.)
And then there's FoldIt, which challenges players with folding proteins into a minimum energy state. This is key to understanding how proteins work, and important for understanding diseases and creating new medicine. In FoldIt, though, the work (folding proteins) is the game, and training comes as a set of tutorial levels. People can play solo for high score, or try to improve on the solution of others.
The game is named Glorious Mission, or sometimes Mission of Honor, not Glorious Revolution, and the plot follows a soldier's life through military camp and cumulates in the eponymous large-scale drill, as reported by China Daily. No US Troops anywhere.
It also supports 32 person multiplayer. You can watch footages of the game on YouTube here.
If you look on Twitter, a website banned in China, you might find people who bothered to break through the censorship and speak their daily lives, and occasionally, comment on current events with a different perspective.
Google's censoring results in China is disclosed to users. At the end of each page there's a message "According to local laws and regulations, some results are not displayed."
On other wikis that use the flagged revisions extension like the English Wikibooks, non-logged-in visitors will see a message indicating they are looking at an approved revision, with a link to the newest revision. For pages that don't have an approved revision, it will just show the newest one.
Registered users always see the newest revision by default.
This is just quality control, I don't think adding revision flagging is going to change any Wikipedia policies.
Whoa, this so brings my memories back. I liked that game very much.
Of course I was never able to clear any level, seeing I was 10 back then, and all I tried is to pedal as hard as possible (not the smartest thing to do)...
I did and all of a sudden, 14 mail client windows appeared on my desktop asking me to subscribe to some strange newsgroup I haven't heard about. In addition I cannot close my browser because the page is displaying a JavaScript Alert.
In addition, the page may contain materials unsuitable for minors. Luckily Quicktime failed to load them.
The current goverment of China is advocating the concept of Harmonious Society recently. Which involves balancing the income between the high-incomed and the low-incomed, preferring fairness over effeciency, and such.
But for whatever reason, it quickly became an (informal) euphemism for censorship, as in "my post just got harmonized." Other phrases that sound similar have also been used, like "river crabs" and its derivative, "seafood". Don't ask me.

Yes; search for "super-resolution".
Oblig. Xkcd: It would be about 0.1 square millimeters. http://what-if.xkcd.com/11/
I think that's a millimeter wave scanner. Backscatter X-ray machines are like two boxes that you walk through.
Not that this is the first petition to ask to remove the postal office from the requirement of pre-paying 75 years of retiree benefits.
(For the record, I'm not a U.S. citizen and have not created or signed either petition.)
Yes:
Release the Postal Service from the draconian Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006

Yeah, Glorious Destiny would be a more accurate translation.

Oh yeah, Danwei is a good one!

Ah, but that design does have a XOR gate which can be easily turned into a NOT gate...
I have to admit that an one-instruction set computer implemented in cellular automation is just too awesome to be comprehensible to me.

It's called a " running gag".
LyX is a graphical "document processor" that uses LaTeX as its file format, supposedly first released in 1999.
RTF also uses text-based markup.
Oops, Accidentally modded this -1...

I wish they remake that game.

Not anymore.
The currently most popular side dish is River Crabs (homophonous with "harmony").
At least China's polital system doesn't involve House Kung-fu.
