Long ago, shortly after completing Roger Penrose's "the Emperor's New Mind", so the subject matter was still turning over in my head, I had the idea while half asleep that all existence was a hugely infinite array of potentials and possibilities, and that among countless permutations was a single particular configuration, that included the physical constants as we know them and the world line of each individual particle, that fit together in such a way to perfectly describe the physical universe as we know it, and as a conscious virtual being in this universe, considering the notions of which I am writing, OBSERVES the truth of the ideas he just had, collapsing the wavefunction and bringing into physical being, well, everything. I love when books carry into the half awake half dream state!
Incarcerated with access to an android or ios smartphone? I know there are cell phones in prisons (contraband) but do you really think he's going to be able to get a cellphone in there to match what his kid has and be able to spend quality video chat time? I guess the kid will have to be woken at 3 am when it's safe to talk on the phone?
My thoughts exactly... I love the phone itself- decent specs, killer firm factor, Nokia true black (amoled?) Screen. Looks especially nice where the black glass meets up with the chassis on one of the colored phones. I wonder if anyone's managed to get android running on a lumia.
Not that Zimmerman was the 'aggressor' before, as has been noted it's not against the law, nor is it even an act of aggression to follow someone, even if you're packing a gun, unless you are brandishing said gun.
I don't know all the facts I haven't followed this that close, I was just trying to argue the point that just because one has a gun in hand doesn't mean the person it's pointed at can be counted on to stand there like a scared little rabbit. I myself of the opinion that as soon as Martin left the safety of his yard to go back to confront Zimmerman, he became the aggressor.
was Zimmerman chasing him through the suburbs with a drawn weapon? Zimmerman pulled the weapon after Martin left his own yard to turn around and go back to confront Zimmerman.
excuse me, no way to edit my previous statement. It wasn't the first part it was directly after what you quoted:
That means that when you come at me with a deadly weapon -- I may fight back with "reasonable force". Also -- proportional. And when my head is on the ground *YOU* are a deadly weapon.
Plenty. I personally have taken a gun from a man who was waving it about in a threatening manner, long story. I don't claim to be a badass , and don't have a history of fighting, but just could see it in his eyes that he wasn't ready to pull the trigger. Mindset of both is hugely important.I'm guessing that he saw that look of fear in Zimmerman's eyes and knew he could do it. He had experience fighting, he's young and strong, and he sees some older scared looking dude, and took his chance. Hell, maybe he got Zimmerman when he was going for his gun.
Codiene cough syrup is really available on the street, it's not hard to get at all, and it's use is very widespread, especially amongst the thug gangsta set. Robotripping, while not unheard of, is way less common, and most likely to be abused by young white techno or rave kids.
No, it means they're preoccupied with what to them is a crippling expense, where to the rich person the expense is trifling and not worthy of consideration.

Heroin, in the US, is a schedule one drug, along with marijuana. Morphine, oxycontin, dilaudid, and the other strong opiates are schedule two, along with methamphetamine and cocaine.
I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but Ingress by niantic labs@google is a great example. It's a gps based Mmoarg (massively multiplayer online augmented reality game), played with your Android device, that plays like a combo of geocaching, capture the flag, and foursquare. The player's movement data is harvested by Google and is being used to bring it's walking navigation up to par with its turn - by - turn navigation. It's an insanely fun and addictive experience, with the added bonus, that me, a 40 year old who has never got regular exercise in his life, is now walking 15-20,000 steps a day.
It narrows the search results automatically- if the app is not compatible, it just won't appear in the results. You won't see it at all, unless you have a direct link to the play store, then it will say not compatible with your device and won't have an install button.
4) If you answer an incoming call too quickly, (i.e. within 1 or 2 rings ) you get this stupid intermediate voice telling you to type 1 on the keypad to confirm you're not an automated answering machine or something. Its the most retarded and frustratingly annoying thing I've ever had to deal with, especially as the Android phone app doesn't bring up a keypad when you answer a call, so now you have to jump through 2 more button presses.
I think what you're talking about is a feature that allows you to screen your calls I.e. Someone calls not in your contact list, gv prompts them to say their name, which it plays to you when you answer, prompting you to press 1 to take the call. You can disable this under settings from the Web interface, it's called screen unknown callers or something like that.
It integrates quite well with Sprint, the voicemails show in the phone app call log in Android 4.0+, I believe. Is that not app integration? It's really the only integrationi want, other than with hangouts.
On android, there are several keyboards in the play store that split the keyboard to reach side of the screen for typing with thumbs. Swiftkey is one,I believe. I'd be surprised if you couldn't find one on BlackBerry or iPad as well.
I don't know how that works- I use a ROM on my galaxy s3 that gives it the note 2 multi-window function, and all apps work just fine on it. I'll often use it with ingress on the top widow and Google maps open in the other and it works like a champ. I often wonder why, when discussing content creation on tablets, there is never any mention of drawing apps. I have an hp touchpad running jelly bean, and have several very nice drawing apps, works great with stylus or finger. The note suits tablets are even better, they have a built in wacom style digitizer for really precise drawing, I'm pretty sure sketchbook pro (autodesk) supports it, as do a bunch of other apps.

Very snazzy device, I'd love to have one.

No they pretty much adopt the whole hiphop thing, too.

if you would read the first part of that statement which you chopped off, it says when my head is on the ground you are the deadly weapon.

Does this scale up, as in could you arrange four cores in a manner to approximately give 4x performance?

Seconded. I'm 25 days into my billing period and am at 9.19 GB.

My guess is : there's NO reason a card shaped token COULDN'T use magstripes and NFC too.
