Just got my GSM one today, and this is about my experience so far. I am having a lot more trouble, and concern, over mounting the internal storage, as I run Linux. I tried libmtp, but it just timed out, though I could at least see the files on my device. Some experimentation needed.
Plus, no flash or Google Wallet yet, which is odd. Going to the Google Wallet site says that it's exclusive to Sprint Nexus S phones still, I hope they fix that for those of us who told Verizon to go to hell and went with Google itself over any carrier monopoly.
Seriously. This isn't them getting a cease and desist for using a word, this is them being forced to defend their "Elder Scrolls" trademark because Mojang was seeking the trademark for "Scrolls." This isn't evil lawyers, this isn't evil companies, it's dumb systems.
RPS has a good article on it here: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/08/08/bethesda-and-notchs-scrolls-off-explained/
I think you mean it leaves eVGA standing alone, since XFX actually makes graham crackers with chips stuck in it that break at the slightest provocation.
Well, in TFA it mentions it's the first time that anyone in Japan has been charged with "property destruction" for creating a virus. Also, he created all the images himself so he wouldn't get arrested for copyright infringement. Of course, none of this is made clear in the summary, and I think the latter point is more him being a smartass. I thought maybe he was a mis-aimed White Hat, but no, he was collecting the data from the affected computers as well and just hanging onto it. So, I guess that falls under YRO as a general "computer law" issue, but it's kind of an unnecessary story since it's just a guy getting arrested for making a virus. How original!
If you had it previously installed, it'll silently just error out when you try to install the Marketplace version. Hopefully this comment will save 10 minutes of going "WTF?"
No, you're absolutely right, and that's one of the things that makes the whole carrier model extremely frustrating.
User choice is extremely limited, but in most markets in the US there's at least one or two options... one just might be better in your apartment, one in your office.
but where are these Android users going to go? I highly fucking doubt it's to the iPhone, since People seem to never want to break their plans or contract with an existing devil-service.
This seems like the wrong point to come away with from the Nexus Experiment. You don't see Amazon, or even any other carrier, ending their cell phone sales online. The Nexus failure seems to be a lack of marketing and direction. It's a hell of a device for an entusiast and developer, if it were presented that way, or even sold as an unlocked dev phone (Which is still fucking isn't!) it would have done well. I just got mine a couple weeks ago, and I love it. And am ridiculously glad I got it in before they closed.
You know, I thought that was disappointing as well, but then I installed the Opera Mini 5 beta on my N82. It pretty much covers all the features I would need from mobile Firefox; stuff like tabbed browsing, password manager, and a slicker interface than the Nokia Browser.
Shuttleworth has already announced that the color scheme will be changed for 9.10, Karmic Koala.
I havn't seen what color it actually is gonna be, but its not brown.
That sucks, I love the brown and orange color scheme.
Mostly because it's different from the usual blues and silvers that dominate Mac and windows.

I really thought this article was going to be about Data.

They need it to compete with the runaway critical and commercial success of Playstation Home.

Comparing US bandwidth to Sweden is like comparing the plumbing under the sink to an oil pipeline.
The current dev channel version is 6.0.472.0. And is stable enough for everyday use - I'm using it in every OS I have.

I did enjoy Tennant, but Eccleston and Smith are on a whole different level for me. To be fair, Smith has the benefits of a better showrunner.
Getting sued by GW must be frightening. You can never be sure when they're going to declare Exterminatus on your offices.
I couldn't find anything that is, definitionally, "computer tampering" through a judicious use of Google.

Schneier's been saying most of these things in similar articles for years now, and I can only hope it eventually is taken seriously.

This game was way better before.
