Teaching creationism in school is perfectly fine in my view, but not in a science class, in a fantasy class, along with Harry Potter, Star Trek, Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica.
What difference does it make? If nobody can sense it, is reality some kind of absolute we should give the first damn about? If we can see it, does it exist in any kind of meaningful sense? How could you tell?
Not an option on Win8.x tablets, unfortunately - IE is, surpringly enough, the only usable touch browser right now. Firefox and Chrome kinda suck balls in Metro mode...
Just like every other app not built for a touch interface, so pretty much all apps on a windows tablet except IE of course.
The so-called "review" on that hotfuckware site is worse than useless, especially their graphic performance page
On one graph they showed Apple's iPhone 5s and iPhone 5 dominating all others, by a very long shot - by almost 3 times the speed of LG's G2 - but they NEVER explain in what way they obtained that number
The whole review is a piece of shit, as far as I am concern
Can't reconcile yourself with the fact that Apple produces better products?
Reality is just as subjective as the rest. There is no reality per se, just the account you can make of it. And this is subjective, and no two persons will tell the same story. Nobody knows that better than the police: Ask 3 eye witnesses about the facts and you immediately get 3 different versions.
You Americans consider the freedom of speech a little too literally. If I were to claim that you are a proven pedophile all over the interwebs (let's say I have a good influence over there), I would be liable under French law - if you're not a pedophile that is. And I don't expect anything else from the law. If I claimed on national television I have proof that the new GM car can be fatal to kids under 5, their stock would plummet (again, assuming I have some kind of legitimacy on the subject) and I would be liable. And I don't expect anything less from my justice system.
Because words can cause real damage, words should be subject to the law.
Now, if I claim I am convinced you are a pedophile or I believe GM cars kill babies, then that's my prerogative and nobody can sue me for it. I'm entitled to my own opinion and to express it.
Are you high? You've clearly never lived in a Celsius country. We *never* say the decimal part, just integers are more than enough to give us the information we're looking for.
Until you chat with a friend, make dirty terrorists jokes, and this friend is thought by the NSA to be a terrorist. You'll find yourself interrogated before you know it.
There are countless scenarios that may see you regret this carelessness.
Well, yet, your country borrows a little more every year. By all measures, you spend more than you earn, and have been doing so for decades.
But I agree with you. You aren't out of money. But you live above your means. This invariably leads to be out of money, since the status quo seems to indicate that everyone in power is fine with this. The reason is simple: To be elected you need to be popular. The easiest way to be popular is to distribute money.
But don't worry, you're not the only country in this case, and you're most certainly not the worst. But you're definitely there, and going forward at full power.
The fair thing to do would be to grant extra paid holiday to the essential staff
Since the government is out of money, I'm not sure that's the wisest course of action. If anything, the federal government should learn how to solve issues without throwing green bills around. That would be a start in the right direction for a change.
Haven't you heard the news? RIM is dead. There is most likely no version 10.2 coming at all. Actually, there is most likely nothing coming anymore ever.
It just goes both ways. I could equally claim that Android forces the app developer to handle a back and menu button - however useless in said app while Apple lets freedom to the developer to do whatever (s)he chooses.
That's not correct at all. No one is forcing users to handle the button presses. The app is free to ignore them.
I don't agree here. If I decide to use a button at the top left of my app to go backward in the screens, people will (rightfully) bitch at me for breaking the Android user experience. Of course, no one is "forcing" me, but I feel - strongly - compelled to abide by Google's UI rules.
I could also claim Android enforce two buttons on users in a space that is usually used to hold a phone while Apple leaves this precious space free of any UI elements.
... Who holds their phone with a pinch grip at the bottom? Is that where cracked screens come from? I don't think I've ever seen someone not hold the phone in the palm of their hand. The button space on the bottom is utterly wasted.
It was just a stupid example. I feel my post just flew right over your head...

It's just another example where Apple has chosen to rigorously enforce what they think is best, where Android has chosen to allow the app developer or the end user what is best.

So you see, each OS is enforcing its own vision, but you can't claim that one is enforcing their closed view while the other is enforcing freedom. This is just trollish at best.

I've upgraded all my iOS devices, everyone I know that own one has also upgraded. No issue so far. Your pick.
May the force be with us all...
Now it checks that it's either the owner of the number or an NSA employee.

My DSL line happily uploads 1.5Mbps for under $30 per month...
It's 56m as per Wikipedia.

Just buy an iPhone. Apple doesn't cheat apparently.
Why would they get shorter battery life?
They can't artificially boost performance without a drain on the battery.
If you think living outside of the US will keep you safe from the NSA (or other US TLAs), you're dumber than we thought.
Kim Dotcom lived outside the US. Did him good.

Don't you love it when grammar nazis make spelling errors?
Well, that was a typo, not a spelling error.

The lower bound on "likely" moved from 2 to 1.5. What is difficult to parse about that?
People just see what they're looking for. Nothing hard here, just basic cognitive dissonance.
