The problem with "what they really want is a car" is it is an assumption based on sales projections and self-enrichment and has scant regard for someone's opinion. Sometimes people truly only want or need a faster horse.
I like that there is a review process. I don't like that the ISP has the obligation to restore access when there isn't such an obligation to review in the first place.
Except it isn't. They take the time to inform the planet (which couldn't care less) about their disinterest of the topic. They care more about their interjection stemming from their belief that just because they have freedom of speech then everybody is obliged to hear what they say than the fact that they can't phrase it correctly.
No male hairdresser, hetero or otherwise has been able to cut my hair decently. That's why I have a female multi-award winning nationally recognised stylist with her own academy do it instead.

4.4 is a different version to 4.3, not a patch or "service pack". Why is it so difficult for people to understand this basic premise? Just because it is touted as a point release doesn't make it one. See OSX, where if your hardware isn't 64-bit you don't get to run 10.7 or later with all the bugfixes that go along with the later versions unless you fork out for a new computer.
Even less want to buy a new phone because the only way to get a "fix" is to use a OS their current phone doesn't support. A car analogy is that you have to buy a new car because your current one doesn't have seat belts. They could be fitted, but it has been decided that they aren't going to be.
It's worse than that. They are saying that if you don't submit a patch with your bug report then you can fuck off, because they don't care. Even if you do submit a patch they'll only "consider" it, meaning when they feel like getting around to it. Which will be never, because *they don't care*.
Six of one, half a dozen of the other. As slow as carriers are to roll out updates (and sometimes never, but at least the end user gets told that), if Google doesn't provide it in the first place they aren't going to do it themselves.

Eliminate it for software, certainly. Why does the US have software patents in the first place?
Didn't you see Back to the Future? Marty McFly invented the skateboard three years later...
Only if I can have another ginnantonix. I'll get you one as well.
That still saves you $25 a month.
Fuck off, fascist.
Nicks mean nothing. It's the UID that counts.

The UK already does. But still more people smoke than voted for the coalition.
He's got a cold.

Three times fewer
"Could care less" immediately springs to mind...
I was lactose intolerant as an infant. I haven't been remotely intolerant since age 4.

DOS and GEM on the same floppy, with room to spare.
The program didn't have to fit in 1k as plenty of games were sold stating that the 16k RAMPACK was needed.
I wonder if the effort to squeeze it into 1k was reflected in profit...
