not entirely, there's the old buffer overflow injection attacks that let hackers run native code and other such vectors that, while rarer nowadays, don't rely on user stupidity. If users weren't so stupid, we'd probably see more hackers attempting to find security holes in the software.
you don't need a smart phone to play music. I have a perfectly reasonable dumb phone Nokia from about 3 years ago that plays all the mp3s I want it to. Sure it's interface is lacking the finer points of playlist making (it does it, but you have to fight with it) but I don't particularly care.
umm... HTML5 is here, and it's in every modern browser. Has been for some time.
And as for 3D in the browser, there are only two ways around the "Best played in X". 1) Each browser performs at the same speed (frankly impossible) 2) Plugins, like Flash, or Unity3D, of which people here seem to be allergic to.
so what you're wanting, really, is to go back to using Mosaic.
Language Inflation leads to eventual massive understatement. For example, detonating a nuclear warhead in London would be considered "problematic" or "terrible" as opposed to "catastrophic" or "calamatous". You know the shits hit the fan when hyperbole can't convey the issue properly.
Worst part of Office 2010? CTRL+SHIFT+S is no longer "Save As..." fucking muscle memory still hasn't gone away.
Nothing to do with the ribbon though. Ribbon's not that bad, honestly, even though I don't use office all that much. Only real gripes I have with it is some of the Document Review options could be more clearly labelled.
If they'd have called it anything other than "Friends" there would be no problem. Like Google+ calls it "Circles", no-one would get offended by a student having their teacher in their circle. Well... maybe.
The problem is "Friends" denotes a specific type of relationship between Family and Acquaintances, and even Acquaintances doesn't really describe a Teacher (since you see them every day, and get to know them reasonably well), despite us, as geeks, seeing "Friends" as merely a synonym for "List of people you know" (Since we know all a Facebook "Friend" is really just an integer in a database and the label is convenient) and there is really no other word that comes to mind to replace "Friend".
The problem comes from people who don't see it from that perspective, from the Government, and the parents, who don't understand the technology, all they see is "My kid is now friends with their teacher" and, today, in the west, there is a deep lack of trust of Adults and their behaviour around kids. If it wasn't "friends", or indeed, if Facebook allowed you to group people together into other groups (like G+) then "My kid now has their teacher in a group and can share what they want with each other" there would still be some murmurings about whether or not that teachers having a direct, unfiltered, (and most of all) unmonitored access to their child outside of class is a good or bad thing.
What I'm saying is that if Facebook weren't the biggest, and hadn't called their list social graph "Friends" I doubt we'd have quite the hoohah we have at the moment.
yeah, opposing force did the alien levels alot better (IE, they were interludes between proper combat sections) and the ending levels weren't just boss after boss after boss. (lets see, HL1 had a Garg, Gonarch, a few Tentacles to avoid and then Nihlianth, Op force had... black ops assasins then the gene worm)

Im pretty sure Its because theyve stolen them all from me.
No, but as of the next update it exports itself to Flash.
Windows + TAB + TAB + Enter = Shutdown
Windows + TAB + TAB + Right + L = Log off

it's always been okay to take candy from strangers, so long as you don't get in their car.

this is the way it's worked in the Games Console market for decades. Sell the console cheap, make money off licensed games. No different here.
It could be selenium. Just make sure you order your collection robots forcefully enough or you'll be in the shit.
Balmer says Hi, and he gave me this chair.
He also pointed out how awesome intellisense is in VS2010.
And I'm sure the Russians want to get in on the ground floor of an OS for purely altruistic reasons, and not in order to impose THEIR will on it.
Why bother doing any of that when you can play Deus Ex:HR and beat the living snot out of civilians?
in other words: Two wrongs don't not, no way, no how, make a right. Infact, it makes it doubly wrong.
Freddie never stopped rockin' and rollin'. Except when Wyclef Jean did "another one bites the dust". Then he just facepalmed.

The one with "Jodar", the bastard child of Yoda and Jar Jar, in place of Chewie.
Would if I could. It's being passed around alot.

You can even say "fuck" like a child if you wish.
Really?!
fuuuuck. fucky fucky fuck fuck poop.
Did you warn them about 9/11?
March called me and wanted it's comic back too. Told them that Piers Morgan was going to be on the Apprentice, they didn't believe me... Fools!
One TOS Nurses Uniform and Wig coming right up...
