    I had and old HTC desire which I "upgraded". It ran hotter than ever after and eventually died. I have the Galaxy Nexus which I can use as a hand warmer in the winter after a bit of use. These bits of kit seem to be made for the version they are released with, little more.

    That does raise the point of what those things record.
    You're in a park and a some mother lets a toddler run around naked in the fountain.Your going past and on hearing the child have fun and laughing it catches your attention and you turn and look - takes a few seconds for you to find the source and BAM! ... ... You've record the naked child and it's live uploaded to the cloud. So you're a distributor of that content too.
    When I'm in the park and have my own kid with me, I never know where to look when other people do let there kid run around naked. Men in the west have been made mental by the media with worry of accusations of being a peado.

    Erm - I don't think not fucking is going to happen. The cause is for most normal people, immutable.
    My TAX money is going towards this. One part of me asks why I have to support this. But the even louder part says, could I really ask as a guy not to fuck because he lives in a poor place with no chance of getting out. Fucking is the only free fun he has. If I have to pay the price of a beer once a year so some people can fuck and not die then I'm really ok with that.
    Here have two beers and fuck her one from me.

    And that makes me sad. I really wanted a FingerWorks keyboard. Apple has done nothing with it. Plus no one else can make these keyboards as Apple has the "rights". Apple is holding everyone back here.

    Never really understood how they make it so hard. It's just a UI that needs action or dos commend connected to a sub sub sub sub sub menu or a direction / pintch / sub menu of some sort. I'm sure excel could work on my phone. Just have to get away from it being used and interacted with like a desktop.
    The bigger question is WHY am I trying to use a phone to work excel! :)

    True, but it was a licensed copy which you could do with as you wish after you bought it - illegal or not. they couldn't take it away
    I get the part about not wanting bots sodding up the online part. If you owned the "licensed copy" you still have to abide by the online rules. But there should be no reason not to have your own bot play on its own network with a whole bunch of other bots should the user wish. No idea where the server code comes from; but people seem to be able to make those given time.
