That's not the point, if you can execute arbitrary code, you can load software onto the system, and that leads to things like the homebrew channel the Wii and Wii U had.
Careful services provided by the government for the people paid for by their taxes sound like socialism! The Nazi's were socialists it's in their name!/s
I live in quite a rural area and work in the middle of a busy city, my commute involves a lot of traffic on the motorway and in town, and then a 14 minute walk from a multistory car-park to my office. The train station is actually closer to my office than the car park is.
Plus I can read on the train, if I did that while driving I might get into trouble... Audio-books help mitigate this.
... because everyone and their dog have mobile phones nowadays.
My dog has two mobile phones you insensitive clod.
On a side note, remember the story of the "Chinese billionaire who bought two Apple Watch Editions for his dog. http://uk.businessinsider.com/...
Apparently this comes from Amun or Amun Ra an ancient Egyptian god.
Also I suspect that it's only endemic to areas where Middle Eastern/Abrahamic inspired religions have a hold because a lot of the mythology behind them stems from ancient Egyptian mythology.
Pebble dying was what made me buy an Apple Watch with the refund I got from the Pebble Time 2 Kickstarter. So sad that never surfaced I loved my Pebble Time.
As an Apple watch and iPhone user, the walled garden analogy between the iPhone and game consoles doesn't really work for (At least) two reasons:
1. In general you will have a primary phone that you carry with you, sure you can carry two, or three but in general the average user will have one phone on them at any time. Switching ecosystems means you lose every app you've paid for and every device that only works with that eco system.
With consoles you can buy a PS3 and then an XBox One and still keep both plugged into your TV, you don't take them with you (Not the case with handhelds but that's beside the point, you can take whatever handheld has the game you are playing at the moment and leave the other at home, I do this with my 3DS and Vita).
2. In general upgrading your phone to a new model in the same ecosystem maintains your investment in that ecosystem, all my iPhone 5 apps still work on my iPhone X, All my old HTC Desire apps still work on a Galaxy Note 8, there may be some exceptions, notably apps that weren't updated to 64 bit on iOS but continuity is maintained if you stay in the ecosystem.
With Consoles this isn't guaranteed, backwards compatibility is haphazard at best, the PS2 played PS1 games, and some generations of PS3 played PS1 and PS2 games until they removed that functionality, the PS4 doesn't do backwards compatibility at all. XBox is slightly better but YMMV.
Besides why would you game on a console when your Mac is a perfectly good gaming machine?

Can confirm I took the bullet train from Tokyo to Osaka and Back just because I had a rail pass that meant it was "Free".

The only reason I drive rather than commute by train is that it's a lot cheaper for two people to drive than it is to get the train.
I have a really heavy phone okay!

I think the voice recognition they used connected to a Pebble hosted server to do the grunt work rather than doing it on device.

Surely this was just part of the test?

Disclaimer: My kids attend public school, but I supplement that with plenty of learning at home (rockets, robots, programming, explosives, etc.).
Are you homeschooling them or preparing them for war?
Sure you do...
No just canines...
You win!
Same, I loved the service and used it to listen to music at work all day. The day they suddenly decided we were not worthy was a sad day for me.
Personally I like to keep all my stats (Str, Dex, Con, Int, Wis, Cha) about average, I'm not a fan of min-maxing...
That said I find that as I age my Str, Dex and Con are suffering...
Those people are worse than vegans.

You could keep your phone suspended in a vacuum? Arguably it's not practical, but it is within the realms of physics.
My experience of women in the Gulf is that many of them have multiple iPhones...
You mean it wasn't about Mercerism and the propensity for people to blindly accept religion?
Uber drivers in Glasgow have licences from the council, same as any taxi driver. A lot of the private hire taxi drivers moonlight as Uber drivers.
The VC version of Mad Libs exists it's called Snake Oil, brilliant party game, but sadly (I think) the publisher went bust and it's difficult to get.
