They are being honest about it. The "why we collect it" part of their quote is the part about them making money, I don't recall them ever pretending not to have more money then god. Improving the users experience is a big part of that however, since they don't make money if the users stop using.
Ghetto is almost entirely unlike how I would describe T-Mobile, unless you consider free tethering, reasonably priced plans, and unlocked phones to be ghetto.
No, I doubt it's true of Android phones. January was clearly a high point in their sales with the release of the Nexus One, and the Droid still only a few weeks old. I (and probably many others) were waiting for an Android phone to be released that had specs better that were better than the G1 and Dec/Jan is when that finally happened.
Candy canes are better. They quickly get a needle sharp point when you suck on them, I've stabbed my tongue a few times with those things when I wasn't being careful.

Most Linux operating systems will install Vi as a standard editor and add an alias for Vim to use Vi.
Really, are you sure you don't have that switched up? Every Linux system I recall has had vi as an alias to vim.
The important thing is that while you can control who you hang out with after work, you don't get to control who you work with.
This is completely wrong. You have 100% control over who you work with. If you don't like the people you work with, find a new job.
No, it's not completely wrong. Obviously if you don't like everyone you work with you should find a new job. I'm talking about the more realistic situation where you get along with most of the people you work with, but have one or two people on the team that you aren't terribly fond of. It would be stupid to quit that job unless they were really over-the-top unbearable.
ACLs have been in the default configuration for years on my distro, I'm sure it is the same on others as well. And the ACLs can be configured in KDE4 as easily as on the Windows desktop.
Completely right. You can socialize with your coworkers without engaging in gossip and other destructive stuff.
The concept of keeping your work separate from your life is BS. Your work is a big part of your life. You spend more time with your coworkers than with your family and significant others so you're just setting yourself up to hate your job if you avoid building relationships. I've had some annoying coworkers and I've had some great coworkers that have become good friends both inside and outside of the office. If you're office discourages you from having some fun during the day with your coworkers then I'd look for another place to work before you burn out.
The important thing is that while you can control who you hang out with after work, you don't get to control who you work with. Show the annoying guys in the office the same respect you give the coworkers who you are good friends with.
Based on the color gamut chart on that page, wouldn't cyan be a much better choice for a 4th primary? It doesn't look like there's much room to expand the gamut on the yellow side.
Why is it only possible for the government to check the no-fly list in real time? If the data is available to them the airlines should be just as capable of doing that.
What about their acquisition of that little company named Android? In case you haven't noticed, the result of that purchase has been getting a bit of press lately.
I don't follow, what do 3D fonts have to do with anything? All my books are printed using 3D fonts and yet they seem to manage quite well in a 3D world.
Who's wasting chances? Cassini just returned to Jupiter and Saturn recently and we've currently got a probe on the way to Pluto for the first time. Just because NASA hasn't returned to Uranus and Neptune yet doesn't mean they're just sitting around doing nothing.
But the people who can read the languages do, and we're getting to the point where you have to go out of your way not to have the required IMEs available to you. It's been awhile since I've had to do anything other than change a setting in a control panel to get Chinese input working.
And if you don't know how to use the IME or read the language, why would you care if you can access the website? The content was already walled off from you and will remain so until you update your wetware.
Even more important to improving sanitation than death, discomfort, and destruction was the concept of germs which was only just gaining traction in the late 19th century.
There's the fact that she couldn't complete a term as Governor. The stupidity of "Drill baby, drill" should also be pretty obvious now. Or how about the blatant hypocrisy of reading teleprompter jokes off of a teleprompter?
Admittedly that barely scratches the surface. There's plenty more but I don't pay her much attention so I don't have a list of every stunningly ignorant thing I've heard from her at the moment.

Not true, section B.2 of the law says that FMNV can't be given to students by pretty much anyone while on school grounds.

Cool, that's a new one for me. Thanks!
Configuring your editor is something you pretty much do once then forget about. The time wasted by not configuring your editor is ongoing.

I didn't recognize George Takei at first. Sure he's famous, but he's not William Shatner famous.

Sorry, I meant to say my books are all printed in 2D fonts.

Did you notice that the RCA 1802 page you linked to specifically says that the chip was not used on Voyager?

What harm is there in not being able to browse a web page in a language you don't understand?
How is that? The TLDs are not location dependent.

Hah, yeah that too. So I guess Obama is only the first black *Democratic* president.
