    It does have a physical cd eject button. It's on the keyboard. I've never had an issue with power buttons either but then again I use the things rather than just repeat things I've heard online.

    It's spanned 3 generations of the iPhone with no mention until now so it can't be that frequent that you'll find someone on here with a real world example.

    I agree we should have never been in Iraq in the first place but yes if I were them I'd want the people who broke it to fix it. If at the very least hopefully it'll teach them a lesson not to do it again. Do you think the US should be able to just away with messing it up and not paying out to fix their fuck ups? That's definitely not going to help anyone.

    Yeah it was so bad we waited years and made up the WMD excuse when we got around to it. Like I said it's not like was a nice guy but it's not like he was keeping tons of people in a secret camp, torturing them and force feeding them.

    Sad dan wasn't a nice man but he kept the country stable. It doesn't have even that now. What serious badness? If there were serious badness then surely we didn't need to lie about WMD?

    So America is going to take responsibility for fucking up Iraq and send troops back over to fix it? That's news to me. Last I heard you were still sticking your head in the sand over your mistakes.

    Everyone has been doing it because they know the apple name gets attention. Same with the chinese labour. All tech companies have their hands dirty but apple got singled out. Apple has improved while others haven't I'm sure all of china's work force is happy that a minuscule number of them have an improved work life.

  10. cut amazon off completely on Amazon Dispute Now Making Movies Harder To Order · · Score: 0

    if they had any sense about them they'd pull all the digital content out of amazon and quit shipping to them and then run an advertising campaign saying their stuff is available everywhere except amazon. Amazon is not the be all and end all of online shopping and on their own they're nothing so they need to stick it to amazon and put them in their place.

    Even Valve and see it'll be a turd unless they take it seriously and focus on making an actual console and make their games exclusive to it.

    But then again PC gaming isn't exactly thriving and it certainly isn't profitable given that most of its users are over entitled little pirates.

  22. Re:Sanity check on 7.1 Billion People, 7.1 Billion Mobile Phone Accounts Activated · · Score: 1

    How so? It doesn't meant everyone has a phone. Many people have multiple phones if only because they have a work one. Poor nations have been into mobiles for sometime due to a lack of landlines and it just being easier to deploy and not every nation gouges its customers like the US.

    It's also why investors are kind dumb to keep expecting growth from mobiles. They are certainly in a state where it's far more realistic to expect them to maintain their position rather than grow especially with Android.
