You'll need anti-static flooring and special grounding for all your lab stations. You'll want a Digital Storage Scope, maybe a mask tester, a logic analyzer, maybe a protocol analyzer, a spectrum analyzer, power supplies, multimeters, a soldier station with adequate ventilation...Prepare to fork over a lot of cash.
I like Android and prefer it over Apple's offerings, I hate to see any monopoly develop for Android phone developers. I don;t want to see Samsung become the next Apple.
It would be really nice if Amazon made a video app available to ALL Android phones and Tablets. They released an IOS app but probably figured Android users could just download Flash and play it on their browsers. Well, Flash is going away and is not support on JellyBean, which I have on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
That would probably be very good. I loved the book. However, the movie would have to be a series of stories as CreepShow and CatsEye were...bad movies but, the only examples I can think of at the moment.
I didn't like the book. Although Starship Troopers introduced novel ideas, such as powered combat suits, I thought it was a didactic essay by Heinlein about corporal punishment and military citizenship. Surprisingly, some of his other books did a complete 180 such as SiaSL
Perhaps you could work in how great the Mormons are and how bad homosexuals are. That would certainly typify Orson Scott Card, perhaps the most loathsome man to write science fiction since L. Ron Hubbard.
I agree. Great science fiction writers but horrible human beings. Battlefield Earth was an excellent book...forget about the movie with its butchered storyline, bad makeup/effects and John Travolta's hammy acting.
I liked Ender's Game more than SftD. I still have yet to read the 3rd book in the series or anything from the Ender's Shadow series.
His books are good but I've heard that OSC personally is kind of a dick with some radical religious beliefs.
Just like a little kid who has been dropped on his head way too many times and then decides to try to be cool by copying what the cool kid is doing, but can only do so in the most craptastic way.
what AT&T needed was some lobbyists in Washington to make an under-the-table deal with members of the commerce Dept in order for the AT&T / TMobil deal to be approved. This worked for Comcast and NBC Universal two years ago. Very unethical but that's how things work in Washington. The Meredith Attwell quit the Commerce Dept 6 months after the deal to become a highly-paid lobbyist for NBC Universal...not a coincidence.
I'm really not sure. From a user's perspective, turn-by-turn voice navigation on my Android is about the best I could ask for. It hasn't steered me wrong yet, it pronounces street names pretty accurately and the map info is up-to-date. From a programmer's perspective, I've written an Android app that uses parts of the APIs from both Google Maps and Mapquest...As I say "parts" of the APIs, I'm not sure what either is fully capable of. Mapquest seems to have an undocumented API for gasprices.mapquest.com...I've also used MQ's geolocation API.
They sure try. You've seen the TV commercials about dead relatives who text'd while driving, right? Also I forgot to add sleeping, drinking (alcohol), sex, and anything else you can think of doing in a car other than driving.
I've got no problem with one OS to rule them all. That makes a lot of sense from a compatibility and maintainability stand-point, but thinking that one UI can rule them all within that one OS is nonsense. What they seem to have learned on the server-side (don't they have a version that is pretty much just a terminal/shell now?) is lost on them on the desktop-side.
Yes, that's what I meant because Microsoft's case, the UI is inseparable from the OS>

My God, Its full of Stars!
and since Apple is now coming out with bigger screens (iPhone 5), it appears that Apple is copying Samsung.
Did all the players and NPCs get resurrected as zombies?
You brought a knife to summer camp after the 2nd grade? Were you like the Trent Boyett of summer camp?...or are you talking about a butter knife?

I read that book. It put me to sleep. I haven't read any of the sequals. Surely, a better AC Clarke movie adaption would be Childhood's End.
You decided that from I Robot? I came to that decision when I saw Independence Day.
Moon was awesome. Great performances by Sam Rockwell and Kevin Spacey

THAT WOULD BE A F*CKING AMAZING MOVIE....I would think. The book was awesome. I Also liked "The Accidental Time Machine", also by Joe Haldeman
Don't ruin it for me. I have yet to read "time enough for love", "The cat who walked through walls" and "Friday"

Will she sing a sendoff song? "time to say goodbye"
If the device is a shaped like a rectangle with rounded corners, its a copy I guess.

Microsoft. Because We're Special.(tm)
...and what role does Apple play in all this?

to what end? For what purpose?
So you are implying that U.S. citizens aren't as smart as workers from outside. I don't think you intentionally meant that.
