Actually Charles is the anglo EQUIVALENT for Carlos which is the Castillian(?) for Carlo, you know, there were other empires and cultures and languages before USA and English Language.

Consumers? Do your mom hack into the device and debug the code every time she buys a phone? Ya, my mom neither. Sure there are some granny kernel hacke... oh wait I spoiled the mantra.
Where are you? Here kids are teach at least CorelDRAW in 7th grade,some Schools use Inkscape or PaintdotNET when they have OSS friendly admins or they are on low budget (Ubuntu it's very popular for education centers here). Whatever, they are pretty good with any desktop publishing software and they love them more than Word or Powerpoint.
The only trace of first-world-like-thinking it's the requirement for Macs to Art and Design students in some top notch Colleges.
Oh oh oh, and the public employment service sponsored by Microsoft that you can't use if you happen to visit it with Firefox or anything other than IE, not due to technical stuff, useragent can fool the system FYI. Thats MS style in the third world friends.
Yes, remember Sergei it's going personally to deliver the logs for your "dwarf sex + Cheer lookalikes" searches, TO YOUR WIFE!!! But that does not happen in Bing, Bill Gates will mount guard in front of your Wife office so when he see Sergei coming he will kick his ass and bill Apple for the bother. Get the facts Googluser!

I'd like to see when people think they outsmart the advertisers and marketing guy while sipping $brand cola and wearing a $brand cool hoodie, going to $brand web video site with their $brand over 9000 lasesrz!1 mouse.
We all know they make their own tin foil hats but I wonder how much money will make Nike if they develop better(tm)tin foil hats.
Also Ads in the SB are not targeted for geeks, geeks are not the only ones that buy tech, we are such a small demographic that promotional endeavors have to be on small scale and laser targeted not Mass media epic blasts.
What?! I would like to play Flash games here, I would like to show some presentation to a client (powerpoint? for an advertising presentation? yeah right) How do I demo my clients an AIR app they need? This was supposed to be the ultimate tool for the designer or creative guy.
Flash is not only video, I can't believe so much hatred against Flash because it's a LAME video platform, IT DOES HAVE OTHER _VALID AND USEFUL_ USES.
I was waiting for this announcement, Now I know I will go with a Tablet and Linux.
You're Stabbing the back of the creative sector that once helped you so much, stupid Apple and stupid Adobe.
Different cultures, Japan cares for innovation it's not a simple buzzword, it's the motor of everything they do, I can imagine a Japanese programmer ashamed because he can't come for a new paradigm in FPSs when he slaps together a TF2 knockoff, unlike West were all that matters it's reviews / e-penis system requirements and astroturfing over the same gameplay Quake put on the table AGES ago, thats why I stay in quake camp, all others seem absurdly complicated and slow when the only thing you want to do it's frag someone.
When gaming used to be for the entertaining purposes, thats why Mario, Quake and Tetris kick ass, you play and enjoy the games NOT the game is trying you to convert you to some kind of religi^h^h^hmarketing segment. Drop the millions you want, I say EWWWW when I smell forged reviews
Yes, happens with regional conflicts fueled by the guys who sell the weapons.. that, humm, well, most of the time are You. And you take pride of it, so yes, It may work easily on global scale.

That would be a galactic Darwin Award. I mean, think of High School in Omicron Perseus 9:
"Ok studente lets talk about what happened to Milky Way, Sun 232, earth, Darwin Award of 901861a.r.j, they suffered like 3 mini blackholes in order to discover FTL and then discovered intelligent life but their primitive mind decided to go to war against the peaceful buddies of Furryland8, they got their ass creamed by the United Galaxies Peace Corps and thats the reason you all now are using cheap human-skin jackets and white sentient servants on that unobtanium chains, now class, tell me another example of extreme retardation."
If intelligent and paceful ETs think they would be beneficial for US they would had come long ago, if they are parasite type, they just don't think we are worth the pain.
Or maybe theres some rule in the universe that no advanced society should make contact with another until the least advanced achieves some stuff, like one global language, no money trading or certain technology. Thats what Hermetic guys used to tell, I think they have valid points in this one.
Unlike English, Spanish (The second one, for a nose.) it's not so given for weird words or overly simplification, You either write it good or you're not going to be understood. Of course, there are memes in Spanish but those are a different animal than English memes. Languages are fun.
You keep touting that in every article and the fact is that when we look if it's true we find uncensored results so people do not believe what you say. It's not any form of censorship by/. or we the readers, just that maybe your proxies or other way of doing the search are giving you censored results.
Maybe if you point us to some news site providing prof that censorship it's re-enabled? Some insiders info? I'd be the first to vote up your submission because THATS NEWS.
I heard our soma production facilities are delivering an increase in the order of 1000 times more soma for the citizens, all this thank to the recent victories against Eastasia.
... and Vitamin D helps calcium to stick together and make healthy bones.
No, orally taken Vitamin D it's not the same as the one synthesized by the skin.
Don't put up excuses just go out and receive sunlight. Who am I kidding, We all know somebody it's going to launch "Vitamin D 1337 Pro" for the xbox and parents will just buy it.
>> Why would pirates have free access to updates too?
To minimize the pool of botnet-ready machines connected to our internet? Thing that may or may not help you directly but is a good thing anyway. It does cost the same for MS to deliver 10 or 10000 patches.
WGA as any DRM it's broken by design, removing it was easy. Unlike Win 7 wich requires a bit more of struggle and is not 100% a sure shoot. In fact, I'd like to buy the copy of Win 7 just for the sake of not messing around with BIOS mods and the like, IF ONLY Win7 delivers something to improve my workflow.. but it is not, I'm more likely to switch to Linux and emulate Win and spend the money in buying compatible hardware. In the meanwhile my OEM XP license is not going anywhere. YMMV
I should have recoded the update, oh wait, It would have fucked up the recording. I left unchecked the "restart now" because I was about to update firefox too but then "oh noes" Dreamweaver, uTorrent (I had to re-check something I was downloading aka KILL), Opera, photoshop and Windows Explorer just started to close at the same time AND THEY CLOSED FASTER than closing them up one by one, it was a forced shutdown. Why would I made up this?
I'm happy you didn't suffer the annoyances from "random Microsoft bug"(tm) : )

What a dumb ass web designer.

Is it helpful? What machine are you using?
Sadly we all know what happens when some new technologies is pushed so hard with the intent of killing another.
Flash is dead slow for video but HTML5 RIA "capabilities" are a emo slow.
Who wants to spend more than double the time developing something thats going to run at half speed in the ~10% of browsers?? no really, get serious.

>> "and stop using the issue of so-called Internet freedom to unreasonably criticize China".
No, I think they mean that western governments are not the most fervent defenders of Internet freedom (throttling, wiretapping, ACTA etc.)
I wonder if we westerners realize were being monitored and censored the same that Chinese people when we point the Chinese censorship.
Just because we can have porn and irrelevant on-line stuff so we don't care too much, and were not getting shot by going to 4chan.
Or do you really think you can find ANY book written in the world on Amazon?
Are you going to have Flu all week? : )
