    Based on useful apps compared to numbers of apps.

    Im running 2.2 on my galaxy s stock and its got every app i could possibly want.

    Is this 'gap' just the bullshit guff that the App store is chock full of?

    if it takes them 10 years to get a standard ratified, what did we do in the meantime?
    a rolling standard is at least worth a look

  8. Re:USB Drive, SAN/NAS, LTO ... on How Do You Store Your Personal Photos? · · Score: 1

    I store everything on a free dropbox account and sync it at home and at work, which it does automatically just by using the computer.
    The chances of all 3 of those failing in the same day are pretty slim
    and if both computers die its just a matter of logging in from a friends place with free internet, boom
    not affiliated with dropbox, just think its handy

  9. Re:This will be great! on Canadian Firm Plans 78-Satellite Net Service · · Score: 1

    Genuine question, once your talking to the satellite with that latency, how does the satellite pick up the rest of the internet?
    Do they all talk to each in LEO as part of the LAN or does the Sat your talking to talk to base stations all round the world connected to the grid via fiber?
    I'm imaging thats how it works and so you would need to factor in that lag.

    Hey, no where in my contract with the company did I sign "I will not set up a porn server on the network".

    just today at lunch I started to wonder how many days I could go having one beer with my lunch at my desk
    im pretty sure something like that would be instant dismissal or else I would try it, but I would love to see the look on my bosses face when he catches on
    that kind of utter shock would be worth a new job

  16. Re:Can Apple survive without Jobs again? on Fake Steve Jobs Says 'Leave the Real One Alone' · · Score: 1

    I struggle to believe that one man had all the ideas, fore-site and drive to push all those products into our lives
    this is teams of peoples with good ideas and great planning in an environement that allows and encourages good ideas, thats where jobs comes.

    for the record I loath apples products, they are a cancer and go against everything FOSS has worked so hard to produce

    Google's primary business function is 'ads', they are an ad company and they come up with more and more ways of getting you to sites that have their ads. Dont get me wrong i lurv Google products, dont know where I would be without my android.

  25. Re:No on Will Touch Screens Kill the Keyboard? · · Score: 1

    For the record, I just ordered a Mattias Tactile Pro 3 keyboard because the Apple "chiclet" keyboard on my Mac pro is so appallingly bad - no physical or audible feedback, mushy feel, unreliable rollover / missed keys / extra keys. This is for my desktop; I suffer with the awfulness on my Macbook pro.

    The TTP3 has Alps mechanical switches, basically unlimited rollover, and key legends that won't wear off, at least according to them (laser etched.) It's my xmas present to myself.

    The idea that a touch screen could take over -- and mind you, I'm really into my iPad -- is no less than ridiculous. The "keyboard" on an iPad is meant to cover you in very rare instances. It's not usable long term or in a serious manner. People who type for a living, or simply a lot... they can't be moved to a touch screen. Not even remotely viable.

    $150??

    I use a standard hp desktop keyboard and its perfect, everything where u want it, fantastic 'click' and so many of them around i have 5 at home i'm not even sure what to do with them
