Yeah, you might want to look up the meaning of "processed". Yes, in includes pasteurisation. It includes pretty much anything you do to food, other than moving it around.
True, but I doubt it would be considered ultra-processing, and certainly doesn't cause cancer. Botulism is controlled by the pasteurization of foods (yes, even canned foods are considered pasteurized), not the inclusion of preservatives, emulsifiers and other compounds that our bodies have no idea what to do with.
They're talking about ultra-processed foods, not ultra-pasteurized. Crap like all the different preservatives and emulsifiers they put in just about everything nowadays. Pasteurization is nothing more than heating to a specific temperature for a specific amount of time, something that kills both harmful and beneficial bacteria.
There may be crossover customers that purchase an Apple or Android phone based on some whim and go back and forth often, but most Apple users would never use an Android device, and vica versa. This isn't counting the people who can't afford an Apple. If you want to disregard the OS and hardware, then Apples main and major competitor would be Samsung. Huawei, I don't think, would make it very far from the bottom of the list of would be competitors.
Huawei competes with the likes of Samsung, LG, Motorola and all other Android phones. Apple really has no rival as they control the entire garden within their walls.
What are the drawbacks of connecting a keyboard to a tablet and doing programming on that?
Well first off, you connected a keyboard to a tablet.
So you're saying tablets are only for consumption of information? Because I'd sure as hell hate to write anything longer than a Tweet on an on-screen keyboard.
Android is just a knockoff. Somebody would've created a cheap alternative to the iPhone. Microsoft did. I'm sure other companies would have too. I don't consider a cheap knockoff revolutionary.
Doesn't really matter, does it? The question was "20 Years Later, Has Open Source Changed the World?". He didn't ask for speculation on whether or not if the Open Source application hadn't been created and an alternative filled the void disqualifying it from consideration. And a cheap knockoff that changed the world is still a world changing application. Do you really think Apple and/or Microsoft would be in as many places as cheaply as Android, had Android not been developed? Not to mention that there are several companies and subsidiaries making millions off of Android devices as their only source of income.
Yeah, Android has pretty much had a major impact on the world in the past 20 years, there is no denying it. One can probably argue Linux, being the core of Android, has had just as much impact, if not more due to it's extensive use in servers across the Internet.
Android has not had a major affect on the way the world communicates. The proprietary closed source apps running on android have had a major affect on the way the world communicates.
And without Android those apps would not exist for, as gaiageek stated above, a cheap, hand held computer for the poor of the world to reach out of their locality to access knowledge they would otherwise never be able to. Android exists because of the Open Source Linux kernel underneath, so again, I state that yes, Open Source has had a dramatic affect on the world even, though most don't know and, apparently, some refuse to admit it.
Seeing as how the most widely used mobile platform is built on Open Source and has had a major affect on the way the world communicates, I'd have to say yes, Open Source has dramatically changed the world even though it's an underlying aspect and most people don't even realise it.
If this turns out to be true, everyone from the CTO to the entire board of directors needs to go prison for a very long time and their entire net worth distributed to the people affected by this. I'm not talking country club prison here either, I'm talking real prison where poor criminals go. And no class action where the lawyers get it all, but an outright equal distribution to everyone affected. Then the class action can come in and take the rest of the companies assets and pass out the $5 gift cards and the millions to the lawyers.
This is actually the proper thing to do constitutionally.
Obama, from what I understand really overstepped his constitutional powers by enacting this in the first place.
I understand his heart was in the right place, but I believe this was an overreach of his powers and should be rescinded.
If the US wants it as part of our Law...then congress should be the ones to enact it.
Instead of DACA allowing them to stay by giving them 2 year renewable work visas, why did he not just fast track them in the already established que to become full fledged U.S. citizens? If he'd done that there would be no problem now. I highly doubt even Congress would be able to take that away, certainly not Trump.
Of course, being educated by the U.S. educational system, I highly doubt they would be able to pass the Citizenship exam.
Music is a big part of our culture and, thanks to Disney and the RIAA, it's locked up perpetually. If they want to monetize our culture, then they need to let it go in a reasonable time frame, say ten years with no extensions. That's plenty of time to make money off their "creation", and will provide incentive to create more.
You can pretty much count on any "smart" thing these days to phone home some type of data to be collected and monetized by the creator of that thing, and yes all you iFanBoies out there, that includes you as well. Why else do you think your sous vide heater, meat thermometer, thermostat, stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, garage door opener, etc -- fucking damn near unlimited list of crap no one needs 27/7 access to -- each require their own app be installed?
Take a look at how much of that useless crap you own is made in China. A good portion of the U.S. economy -- your paycheck included -- goes to that repressive regime.
This! I was about to post similar, but you beat me to it. After initial cost of handle, brush and bowl, I spend less per year to shave than most people spend in a month. Hell, I spend less per year to shave than most people spend on saving cream alone in a month and I get a better shave and get to choose the scent of my soap.
Don't believe the marketing hype. No one needs more than one blade, and that chemical concoction you use as a "cream" is not only a wast of money, it's not good for your face either.
I'm sure it's going to be just as fair and balanced as that other 'F' news site. Possibly even more so when their algorithms kick in and show you only news that align with your world view.
We've kind of tapped out x86 performance lately. My 6 year old laptop is still fairly competitive.
Your six year old laptop is about to become an ancient slow piece of crap.
It takes more and more processing power just to run the OS because they keep bloating up to the specs of the latest processors. This is true for Windows and the mainstream Linux WM's, although not quite so bad on the Linux side of things.

Dude, did you reply to the wrong comment? Because not one word you spewed out up there has any reference to the parent.

Sorry, I forgot state government isn't government and doesn't have to abide by the Constitution. My bad.
In the US, the government cannot force you to purchase a product as it is unconstitutional.
You obviously don't own an automobile, or you live in New Hampshire.

Actually you can use short clips of anything, including music, due to fair use.
Music is a big part of our culture and, thanks to Disney and the RIAA, it's locked up perpetually. If they want to monetize our culture, then they need to let it go in a reasonable time frame, say ten years with no extensions. That's plenty of time to make money off their "creation", and will provide incentive to create more.
The irony of this is that I am desperate for Netflix to stop with the damned Marvel shows, because they suck.
Perhaps you should be upset with the person tyeing you to a chair forcing you to watch them rather than Netflix for producing them.
You should try reading past the first sentence. This goes for all written material really. There's a shit ton of info beyond that first period.

I expect Trump to nix this as yet another of Obama's "bad policys".
Offensive content is purely subjective, how are they going to determine this? Are we going to have a SJW controlled Google now? Fuck that shit.
