Would you rather depend on "the whims and emotional instability of 12 idiots", or the lust for power, desire to impose an insane ideology on others, and desire for sensationalist news stories to boost political careers of one idiot?
Some people aren't happy unless the jackboot of authority rests lovingly on their necks.
Tell me exactly why it is our responsibility to find ways to assist developing regions.
Because when they fail at developing in a way that produces legitimate exports, they instead develop in a way that produces, for instance, narcotics and terrorists as their exports.
So it's a big protection racket? At least you're honest.
If OP has to buy three iPhones, a couple of iPads, etc, etc, etc. then if you are developing for Android, you'll, of course, buy 18 kajillion phones and tablets.
Great, now they're handling infrastructure by committee. I can see this getting expensive (and broke to fuck) quite quickly.
And dibs on how long it'll be before we see a parallel structure to the "editor cabal" problem they already have.
Well, this is slashdot. A quick check of the article shows that it is 1.5 days old. Newish for the 'dot, but still old. Given all that, I'd say that there is already a cabal well and truly entrenched.
I'm wondering if they'll make "GOTO considered harmful" an explicit policy. WP:GCH?
Considering that the Chinese have said that SpaceX is flying at a price point cheaper than they can provide launch services, I'm sort of curious who this "cheap knockoff" might be? The Mexican Space Agency?
I can ssh and network-mount my N900 out-of-the-box. Android/WP don't even have ssh by default, and I sure as hell can't use sshfs on them that easily.
That's very useful to huge swaths of the phone buying public. I'm absolutely sure that if this feature were heavily advertised, it would boost N900 sales into the stratosphere.

WTF? Considering what happened to McCain, I'd say that air superiority was pretty fucking far from guaranteed in Vietnam...
I had a 6 GB Creative JukeBox mp3 player about 4 years before the ipod existed. All Apple did was make it pretty.
And if that's 'all' they did and it was so trivial, you could have done it and been a gazillionaire.
All your blather, and you could never be bothered to answer the question: if not Jobs, who is better?
I envy you. The last judge I encountered was this fellow. Not exactly the poster boy for 'level headed, [and] very reasonable'.
For that matter, Woz doesn't work at Apple anymore. So Microsoft isn't even a competitor.
He doesn't work there, but does draw a salary from them. And I assume he has a share or three of stock.

The German authorities found the docs, Germany doesn't have jury trials.
Just a train ride and a quick shower at the end?
...actually, terrifyingly, humans can be involved in horizontal gene transfer, too. So sorry about your nice clean object model.
Not at all what I pictured from a link to 'human horizontal gene transfer'.
What?! I figured it was something new on urban dictionary...
A day hasn't been defined as a rotation of the Earth for a very long time
The Bible was written "a very long time" ago.
In a Galaxy Far, Far Away??
Restin'? She's pinin' for the fjords.

Ahm too old to remember stuff but the green bars on the subject lines look the same.
Kids these days. Everyone knows that green bars belong on paper.
It seems you are confusing actual Libertarians with those assholes who are not, but call themselves that.
No true Scotsman. Got it.
Dunno. Ask people in Tacoma, Olympia or Vancouver, WA or Portland, OR.
Ahh, hipsters. Got it.
Do you understand?
I think so. You're saying that Obama stopped the selling of our secrets to the Martians that the Bush administration was involved in?
If OP has to buy three iPhones, a couple of iPads, etc, etc, etc. then if you are developing for Android, you'll, of course, buy 18 kajillion phones and tablets.
No way that costs more than $6k.
Depends. Are they African or European swallows?
I don't knoooooooooooooooowwww........
Uh oh, the horses are out! Better close the barn door.
Great, now they're handling infrastructure by committee.

They also had wings too - OMG so do birds!
Breaking News. Terrorists are training swallows to carry coconut shaped bombs.
Yeah, but how fast will they be able to fly?
Considering that the Chinese have said that SpaceX is flying at a price point cheaper than they can provide launch services, I'm sort of curious who this "cheap knockoff" might be? The Mexican Space Agency?
Probably. Did you ever see the documentary about it?
Oh yes. It smells like Steve Jobs' scrotum.
Speaking from experience?
I can ssh and network-mount my N900 out-of-the-box.
Android/WP don't even have ssh by default, and I sure as hell can't use sshfs on them that easily.

So I submit that at least from my N=1 sample...
You know, you could have put that first so that we could ignore everything else in that post.
