"Retarded" and any similar words just go through an endless cycle. Some new politically correct word will come along (like "intellectually disabled" as you said) and in a few years' time it will start being used as an insult. When they realize this, they'll come up with a new word and the exact same thing will happen.
The "getting things others already had" is part of why it's becoming worse. They're trying way to hard to copy chrome. If I wanted to use a browser like chrome, I would just use chrome. Mozilla has taken the google route and dumbed down their UI to the point where I refuse to upgrade past 3.6 because I don't want to have to install 80 addons just to get the UI back to where it should be.
If you only need to do something basic like delete a specific line number, then there's an even easier way: just use sed. If you know you want to delete line 10, then just do "sed -i 10d.ssh/known_hosts"
How would it be any better? You still would have to replace equipment and software in order to support it. Most high-end equipment uses ASICs for routing, so you wouldn't be able to just do software upgrades to support it.
Doesn't it become a bit redundant? If you want to tell parents about absences, just look at the teachers' attendance and look at who was missing. Seems like too much cost for little benefit over what is currently done.
It sounds like it's just automated attendance. Your RFID in your shirt gets scanned at the door. No different than a teacher taking attendance the old-fashioned way. A lot of schools call the parents if their student is marked absent, so it's no different than that.
The keyword in your post is "can". It can replace it, but for intensive data entry or email, the lack of physical keyboard and the smaller screen means that even though you can replace it, you shouldn't.
If the university's IT department isn't providing the services that students and faculty need, then the issue should probably be raised above the IT department. The purpose of an IT department is to provide a service to the organization, not to make the organization bend over to the IT dept.
From my experiences with the AMD driver, it was extremely difficult to get a single X display that would span across multiple video cards. Xinerama just completely made the drivers fail. Nvidia on the other hand seems to support Xinerama just fine.

A typical strawman respone from someone with no actual argument. Copyright is an artificial construct whereas communication is human nature.

Sending information to other people isn't communication?
The 5000 series was better in some regards than the 6000 series, so it is entirely possible that it is worse than the 5000 series yet better than the 6000 series.
The "purposely neutering a product" is something that pretty much every CPU and Video card manufacturer does. And besides, choosing not to support something on an old phone isn't neutering it, it's just them not providing a particular feature, just like how they never brought multitasking to the original iPhone even though it was possible through jailbreaking.
I wouldn't mind paying MLK. Why should I have to pay his family when they provide NOTHING to me? His family is the ones that seem entitled. They are creating nothing.
It might stop them from being able to get money from the cable, but it's not like it's going to deter them from stealing the cable in the first place under the assumption that the cable is copper.
He's talking about when the person that is threatened with a lawsuit was never doing anything illegal in the first place, but rather is just being pushed around by a company because they don't have the resources to go to court. If they did have the resources, they would be found innocent.
Overclocking rarely causes damage. If you gradually increase the speed, you'll hit the point where your computer isn't stable. However, this is well before the point where you cause permanent damage. As long as you stay reasonable (don't change voltages) you're getting a good performance gain for free. Why not get a 30% performance boost?
Driving without the license plate was legal, parking in the handicap spot was not. Had I been in the area, I would have taken videos of Jobs parking and staying in the spot and sent them to the police and/or calling and reporting everytime the spot with illegaly filled. You don't need a license plate to be towed and good luck finding the car again after it's been removed. People who believe they're better than everyone else and act on those beliefs desevered to be bitchslapped every once in a while.
So you would get fired from apple over a parking spot?

They're trying to make it as cheap as possible. Even TFA mentions this.

If they only had composite to begin with, anything above VGA is completely excessive. These machines are never going to be outputting 1080p.

But that would cost them money. Instead, they could just use Siri as an incentive to upgrade to the 4S.
The hands really wouldn't be free because you'd be using them for gestures.
Not if the ad is never loaded.
That's not true anymore, and youtube also has an automatic copyright filter that would probably catch if a movie was being uploaded.
MLK wrote the speech

I don't even think it's that hard. Just use some cron jobs to control iptables.
