That said, there is an issue for customers who want to update to later versions and can't since their carrier won't permit reasonable updates after just a few months, but that's more of an issue with bad business practices that affect consumers negatively, rather than a problem for app developers.
That's something that I wish Google had been a little more proactive about. If the Android license had some requirement for support of some sort in regards to updates I think the entire Android environment would benefit tremendously. That being said, Google has more of a challenge on their hands compared to Apple because Google went to all (or most) handset and networks.
m has a complex organ or chemical system, or whatever, made of two parts, B and C. Neither B, nor C will work individually. How did this evolve?
The explanation is that the organism originally had a much simpler organ, or chemical, or whatever. Call it 'A'. At some point, a variant evolved that had an enhancement added to A, call it B. Now, B doesn't work by itself, but A does. Together, A & B are better than A alone. At some later point, A gets a mutation, and becomes 'C', which doesn't work by itself, but works together with B. So now you have B & C, neither of which work together, yet it was possible for evolution to take "baby steps" to get to that point.
Putting this concept into a simplified list.
A works well enough
The combination of A and B work better than just A
The combination of A, B and C work better than the combination of A and B
The combination of B and C work better than the combination of A, B and C
That has a lot to do with man bashing. Intelligent women are permitted on prime time, just not intelligent while normal men, for purely political reasons.
Maybe there has been a shift, but let's be honest, any character that is "normal" is most likely going to be boring. I'd say the following are quality examples of men on TV.
Ummm, since this is a US tax case, the following applies: In the United States, CPAs are five year programs, then passing the unified CPA exam, then a minimum of 2 years experience. That's the equivalent of a Master Degree in Accounting, so unless a CA is the equivalent of a CPA, then I doubt that CPAs aren't very smart and CAs are more technical.
Five years, two yours of experience. Tell that to my friends who got their CPA six months after graduating from undergrad, with no experience beyond an internship between junior and senior year of college and three months of work at the accounting firm they worked for after graduation.
Note how the US is one of the four countries that doesn't move. That means its population density is approximately the average across the world.
Notice how that map has nothing to do with population density, just total population. China and India are the two largest nations by total population but are 78 and 32 by population density. The United States of America sits at 178.
If you cannot speak to me or others without the teenage/childish insults, and handle an adult-to-adult conversation with respect towards one another, then you have nothing to say that I want to hear.
Hear, hear. This is why I have very little respect for a majority of political commentators and politicians (at least those that get the most press coverage) who constantly sound as if they are in a seventh grade pissing match. I would think that most adults don't want to hear about teabaggers, lame stream media, or any other horribly contrived and unimaginative pejoratives.
What if he ate a christmas pudding laced with brandy? What if he used some cough medicine that's made with alcohol?
Um, it's called DUI, "driving while intoxicated." It's not called, "driving while having had an alcoholic beverage earlier in the night". Pudding laced with brandy most likely won't up your BAC or intoxicate you, and cough medicine will. Guess what, most medicines warn against operating a vehicle after use. It's because it might impair you.
I don't support the notion of required DUI check points, it doesn't sit well with my notion of personal liberty, but I won't make excuses for those who are caught driving drunk. And if you're at a place where you can get free alcohol then you should make a plan for getting home safely, either by cab, walking, designated driver or crashing at the person's house who was serving you free alcohol.
Politicians read the bills they vote on as often as Slashdotters read the articles they comment on. 'nuf said.
Just because the majority of/.ers are idiots doesn't make it alright for Congressmen and women to be so. Lots of people drive drunk, that doesn't make it an alright thing to do.
know that CTRL-INS and SHIFT-INS are handy combinations for copy & paste, especially when you don't want to actually send CTRL characters to the terminal. as an alternative to the 'three-finger salute'?
Um, pardon, but how is using CTRL-INS not sending a CTRL character.
Selective disabling is not possible, so passengers will also be affected.
Ever heard of a directional wave. It's not trivial but definitely possible to disable cell transmission to a single sector of a car. Now, having said that, I still don't support it.
As the majority of direct flights have to bounce through PA, or New Jersey.
I would posit that a whole 0% of direct flights "bounce" through PA or NJ, but I'd have to collect more data to be sure. As an aside, my brother takes the train from Boston to NY frequently and apparently it's quite nice, with power outlets for computers, leg room, freedom to walk and no intrusive security.
However, for any distance under (say) 600 miles or so, I'd agree: drive. It actually is quicker, and is substantially cheaper without the hassle. An hour to the airport, 1-3 hours waiting, an hour or so in transit, and another hour to get your bags, rental, etc. and then another 30 minutes to 2 hours to your actual destination. Anywhere on the seaboards, I'd say "just drive".
Maybe you just live too far away from airports. Take this example, I have a 15-30 minute rail to the airport, an hour at the airport (I take no head to the 2-3 hours early warning from the airlines), 2 hours of flight, no checked bags, and another 15-30 to get to my final destination. That's a whole lot faster than driving (4 hours flying vs 7.5 hours (600 miles at 85 mph)) Now, flying is most likely more expensive, but if the distance is over 250 miles I'll take flying any day.

The person you're replying to is what's known as a troll, and you should not feed him.
When I was growing up we had "rationing" of electricity. It was called California, circa 2000AD.
I agree on the CT scan, but it's quite a leap to suppose that the CIA only operates out of Langley, Virginia.
... (BTW those wind farms kill bats and birds).
For the last time, your cat, and tall fucking buildings are killing birds much more effectively than windmills.

you can get a clone of it for linux called FSV at http://fsv.sourceforge.net/
Why? Why would anyone want to hassle with that system.

MM is pretty universal for million.
At best MM should stand for 2,000 as it is a highjacking of roman numerals that fails to accurately implement them.

That would actually make my life better, I hate flying. Driving cross country is time consuming and expensive though.
If only there was a third option....

So what you're saying is things with a smaller N have a higher percentage of occurrences P than those with orders of magnitude larger N.

People should just grow up and forget their modesty. Realize that everyone has titties/ dicks / vaginas. But this is not the way of things today.
While it is true that most people have titties, it's not so common for people to have dicks and vaginas.
