Why would the USN test a prototype off the coast of LA? They'd either do it at China Lake (out in the middle of the Mojave desert) or they'd take it way out to sea where they could be a little more secret about it. That's the great thing about a ballistic missile submarine.
That's all fine and dandy but they are in Europe, not the US. So they don't have to worry about OSHA or the EPA. But having said that, one can now question whether the LHC is ROHS compliant!:oP
I think you're a bit off here. In my experience its: Girls break up with their bf's after Valentines day because they did just a terrible job at it. Guys break up with their girls right before spring break so they can mess around on vacation. Guys ALSO do the breaking up before Christmas so they don't have to A) Spend time with the GF's family and B) don't have to buy her a gift.
And no I've never broken up with someone to have a fling or to be a cheapskate.
Actually you have to run your app as root to get access to the calendar, SMS, and other such private databases on the iPhone. Therefore you can only run an app such as this if you're jailbroken.
I didn't RTFA but I'm guessing that he somehow used instant messaging of some kind to engage in the sale or purchase of the stolen property. Otherwise, what would be the point in limiting such activity?
He must have been using the same terminal. I've had the priviledge of flying on a private, corporate owned, jet. We went thru a general aviation terminal and we did not have to go through any security whatsoever. This was post 9/11. It was also here in the US. Maybe the terminal he was at was used by airlines, I don't know.
There is a silver lining to that cloud. The more criminals are tempted to go after those who actively make themselves an easy target, the more likely it is that those with a bit of sense will be left alone. This means you now have more control than ever over whether this will happen to you. Choice is good.
Just as long as that easy target isn't your teenager telling all of his/her friends that you're out of town on facebook! You can't keep track of every stupid thing your child does.
Good luck with that. You can't even find his UN email address. At least I couldn't find any contact info on this guy after a few minutes of Google.
I did find out that he got one of his degrees from a university in the USSR and that he's from Mali.
After this year's world cup referee fiasco, I am beginning to think that this is some sort of Malian plot to screw the 1st World... And wouldn't you know? My tinfoil hat went missing last night, too...
The most recent news is that the rig was not actively pumping oil to the surface. I speculate that if this is true that it was likely down for maintenance. Either way the coast guard does not think there is any leak but is ready to deploy vessels to contain any leak that is reported.
I was going to write him and let him know that I am going to happily contribute to his competition's campaign in the next election (despite the fact that I do not live in NC), but he's supposedly retiring after his current term anyway.
I'm pretty sure that transmission violates copyright owned by the RIAA. Don't worry. The Navy Seals, SAS, and Green Berets may not be able to penetrate their defenses, but the RIAA will wear them down with frivolous lawsuits.
My guess would be an oversight at kernel.org. I submitted a kernel patch to the USB HID driver back in the days of 2.6.10 and 2.6.13. The driver was incorrectly suspending its state (I can't remember what it was doing off the top of my head) while it held onto a spinlock. The result was 100% CPU utilization when you called certain ioctls made available by the driver. The patch didn't make it in until 2.6.17 if I recall correctly, and not until someone with a name submitted a patch for it.
Both the Android browser (Chrome?) and Safari use webkit, if I am not mistaken. They are both on ARM processors as well. I imagine they were able to take the flash plugin from Android and put a wrapper around it to get it to work with Safari. Also, flash has been available on the Evo since day 1. I personally don't care much for it but a lot of people seem to be interested in it for android, at least from what I've read on forums.
No of course not! They'll pay a 3rd party to collect all the juicy data and then they'll buy it back from them! Therefore THEY didn't use the data for anything other than enforcing the law.
You'd be surprised at how many technologically clueless people are lurking in the development forums for the HTC Evo. I have two Evos and the second one is used by someone who might be branded a Luddite and a rooted phone has gone over swimmingly with that insignificant sample pool.
I agree that the Q3 numbers will be interesting but Q3 also holds the release of the HTC Evo and The Motorola Droid X, which were both highly sought after Android platforms. So all this Q3 competition should be a sight to see. Now if only I liked popcorn...
if you want full control over your "open" Android phone, you have to circumvent the restrictions the manufacturer has placed on it - *just* like you have to with an iPhone.
The big difference is that every time HTC or Motorola comes out with a new OS update for your phone, they have to release the source. So now you can update the OS on your phone without having to jailbreak/root again.
I was annoyed to death having to do this release after buggy release of 2.0 and 3.0s. You know, when Apple was pushing out a new update every few weeks.
Even if they don't make future updates to your phone you have everything you need to roll your own update to your phone.
The problem isn't with Android itself, it's with the custom code that Motorola, HTC, Samsung, etc put on top of the OS. Typically its for UI customization or to provide features and functionality that the network provider requests.
I have the HTC Evo, rooted w/ a custom ROM and I can tell you its the way to go. The custom ROM I use has better performance, better stability, and longer battery life than the stock ROM. It's Fresh 1.0.1 if you're interested in giving it a try.
Even if this is true this doesn't fix the fact that:
I am left handed. I hold the phone in my left hand. Using my friend's iPhone 4 I see a drop in bars. Calling capabilities are diminished. IN the exact same spot I can hold it in my right hand and there is no problem.
Because when you search for a point of interest you may:
Use voice search. It pops up a giant microphone on the screen that covers 3/4 of the display on the Evo in every application I've seen that uses voice search/voice recognition.
Store contact information for a location to the SD card as a.vsf (or whatever the format is)
Call the phone number listed for the point of interest you have selected.
Well then every vendor ought to standardize on a specific hardware interface. Of course that may prevent devices from implementing innovative features. Anyway, my point is that the iPhone is no more plug and play than Android phone (except on a Mac, perhaps).
I didnt' think the 3G could go to 4.0 either. The hardware between 3G and the first iPhone is almost identical. The only difference is the radio, I believe. I know the processors are identical.

Such as the location that they are able to resolve via your IP address? I bet that has a huge effect on the rates they provide.
