No I used my logic as an Android user to think about how apps get installed from third party sources having installed some to deduce that the article was most likely BS.
I think it is more likely to be one in each specialist store. We could see this bring jobs back to western economies and kill off the need for cheap foreign labor on things.
The local specialist 3D printer operator will be able to make certain goods. Another will specialise with a 3D printer that makes other goods. Eventually you have what the west had 30-40 years ago where you have small local stores making things locally. Might allow the small store to come back or big supermarkets to just ship stuff from down the road rather than from China.
Well to be fair those robots aren't the exact same as they were in the 80's, one or two feature upgrades I imagine. Also they have a limited audience.
Mass production will bring proper economies of scale to this and if it uses rare technologies, there is incentive to find alternative ways of doing it if you know you can tap into a mass market.
I have had plenty of time with iPads and I don't see how they are easier to operate than an Android tablet with Honeycomb.
That's because they look/feel a lot like iPads.
Which proves the point. Why not buy something that looks and feels like an iPad but isn't one and the answer is of course, brand loyalty/brand choice/lack of willingness to shop around/take your pick. Reality is the difference is negligible between the two software platforms and there isn't that much to the hardware to go wrong so why pay the premium? If the Apple logo means that much to someone then by all means but everyone else, go nuts on cheaper tablets.
I'm using Opera with ad sweep and have the same results as using Adblock. think they might even share the same filter lists. It supports ghostly now too. Opera also allows you to select whether extensions can operate on private tabs which I thought was interesting. It probably isn't up to Firefox's standards but getting closer every day.
and watches the IE users desperately attack the survey. Then points out that IQ tests are usually extremely flawed anyway so if you take a flawed test and a flawed survey, you obviously get an accurate result:P
Brothers friends used to do this in the past few years. Ireland does have relatively poor broadband and crap caps already so this never went away.
Students organise to each download different things then meet up to watch a movie with some beers and share their wares around for free.
I thought the funniest part was they used PS3's to distribute the content since it was in the main room and was going to be used to watch the movie anyway.
change or not, can we all agree to clean up our environment so that it is more pleasant to look at and we can breathe clean air again. Coming from a rural area, it takes a while to adjust to smells of pollution in towns/industrial areas and there is sometimes a fog around. More popular in foreign countries than Ireland since we have few of those resources and a heavy manufacturing skipped us as a result. Very noticeable when abroad though don't worry, Dublin still smells like **** so getting rid of industrial pollution won't make towns/cities smell like flowers unless we buy a record amount of scented candles but then we'll be back to square one on the climate change thing:P
But that is completely relevant for the purposes of the test as many people also have those kinds of systems and what performs best on crap speaker systems is still useful information.
That the people that pirates are usually the people that consider viewing the media their hobby. I.E gamers, movie fans and music fans and not the average Joe.
That would make sense to me.
Indie developers are only Indie developers until they get a hit. Part of that I suspect comes from being so obsessed with the thrill of making an Indie game with mass appeal makes them determined to try to do it again with a sequel since one is unlikely to hook into that popularity twice in ones career anyway.
I think if most of todays Indie developers had of created Doom, they'd be doing and saying the same things.
Down a staircase from top to bottom in a pub that went to the toilets. It was a tiled staircase. The back cover came off, popped it back on and not a scratch on the phone.
I also dropped it one night in a pub and sent it a web text the next day saying if found return to my address and later that day someone popped by with it apologizing saying they don't know how they ended up with it.
How can you make a call or answer a call if the UI is inoperable though?
My friend has an iPhone with a broken power button and she didn't drop it from a plane so what should be taken from this article is really that it depends what way it lands much like a person.
The time spent doing this could have been spent on a billable (or freelance) project that would have paid for a new phone (and then some).
Actually the time spent could have been used to try to find a freelance project, I'd say he would be lucky to get a freelance project and complete it in the time it takes to upgrade his phone with a custom rom after using an exploit to gain access.
I've rooted my phone but not upgraded it and it took me about half an hour to do it in total. I got my last windows mobile phone to duel boot android in a similar amount of time. It doesn't take effort or skill, usually someone else does most of the work and your just following their instructions. The people that learn how to do the actual hacking and actually create the custom Roms are learning skills that could be useful on future projects if they continue to work in the Android area since they will learn a lot about different parts of Android.
Is that it has consistent temperatures or reasonably so. Maybe not as I'm not an expert on Vegas.
A couple of companies have built data centres in Ireland for this reason though and they can use the wind that comes naturally through for cooling to further reduce costs.
Ireland has high humidity so I'm not sure how this plays into the whole humidity theory though. Mostly I'd say it is probably for tax breaks and cheap startup costs giving them a fast return on investment.

Which is exactly what I thought it would be. Hate BS articles like this. This just in, people die from getting killed!! type stories, argh.

Both users were unavailable for comment :P I kid, I kid ;)

Organic Search must be a marketing term for they looked for it themselves and were not lead by a misleading breadcrumb trail of links :P

smarter. I think the evidence would support that gene diversity is the best way to ensure survival. *cough* says the man from Ireland *cough*
But that is completely relevant for the purposes of the test as many people also have those kinds of systems and what performs best on crap speaker systems is still useful information.
Sony have massive stock of 3DTV's to sell and don't want the fad to die out before they've flogged them.
and your battery life will half.

Force you to monitor your privacy to the world while they have full access behind the scenes.

2 people died during the wait... See then it would be news :P
I had to click so much to get to the full size pictures :(
I don't mind so much but it isn't exactly a good gallery design there NASA...
