What's supposed to be amazing about this? Isn't decades-old knowledge that you can make computations faster by reducing the precision and using faster approximation methods?
detached from the world and can't, for example, use the location data for Cortana / Bing searches, etc... (disabling location disables Cortana, from what I read)
Right, because that's a highly used feature on secured networks. NOT.
Not really as XP has already dramatically dropped off in usage share. And Vista? It never had more than 15% usage share even at its peaked. It's share cratered quickly once 7 came out.
And the fact that 99% of people neither know nor cares shows just how great the Atrix was as a product. The 5s probably had more preorder sales than the Atrix had in its entire lifespan.
Despite idiots like yourself spreading FUD, these terrorist have been shown to overwhelmingly be using unencrypted messaging for planning their attacks. So if the NSA is blocked from reading plaintet SMS then they're clearly incompetent.

That's what happens after taking bath salts.

Third-party keyboards on iOS have been around for months and months now. slowpoke.jpg much?
Nope only the shitty ones require that. I've used Swype and have never granted it full access.
The Internet was its infancy in 2005? lolwut? That's one of the dumbest things I've read on Slashdot in years.
So you act as their butthurt defense squad and yet don't even get paid for it? That's even more pathetic.
And yet strangely, you seem really broken up over it. So much so that you get really really upset over it.
That doesn't actually answer the question. Care to try again?
Because malware can get on to computers via other routes than the network? Never heard of USB drives before?
With the submission dated May 5th. Good ole Slashdot a day late and a dollar short as always.
Who exactly was releasing phones with fingerprint sensors in 2008 (5 years prior to the 5s) as a mainstream, consumer product?
And the fact that 99% of people neither know nor cares shows just how great the Atrix was as a product. The 5s probably had more preorder sales than the Atrix had in its entire lifespan.
Of course they shorted it because they set up the whole thing to fail in the first place.

No, it takes about 5 minutes MAX (often less) of time to get price matches at Frys, Best Buy, etc.
No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame.

Yes, they do have similar statements.

Except they don't require any such thing. They require a license. That's quite a bit different than a transferring of rights.
Funny since Slashdot has the exact same terms in their ToS. Starnge how BeauHD doesn't find it "dodgy" when he's doing it.
Why was this modded up?

That took all of 10 seconds to find.
And that's surprising why? Facebook sells the device.
Sure if the laptop was from 10 years ago.
It means nothing. It's a buzzword.
