100% over 20 years is not particularly high if anything it is rather sedate, 25% though is very low. that is less than 1.25% on the 25% and only around 3.5% per annum on the high end houses.
It doesn't work that way. There is a significant barrier of entry in order to be able to compete with google or apple app stores and hence the legal onus is on them to ensure they are not misbehaving, it is not good enough to say someone could just start their own.
NO the user experience would be greatly diminished, but it can be valuable for some and is already available. If you want an always on game mode just disable all the services in the OS you think you don't need like search etc.
Driving your car WHILE having your Samsung phone is even more dangerous. you don't seem to understand the risk is cumulative. Driving your car while eating bananas and smoking with your Samsung note is even more dangerous.
this isn't an either/or risk. Only a Samsung galaxy simply adds to your risk of death, so in addition to possibly dieing from kitchen fires, smoking, car accidents, consuming banana's your chance of death is slightly increased by also using a Samsung galaxy note. That doesn't mean they are more deadly.
no, only people that have a very narrow view of what the market is would say that. Microsoft have increased market share in enterprise many fold, they still hold a 90% desktop market share and make exponentially more money than they did 10 years ago and are one of the leaders in one of the largest growth areas of cloud and cloud services.
2 very different companies between now and then. Back then it was all a wish and a promise, now they actually do delivery the profits people were betting on. basically back in the 90's and until the dotcom bubble burst they were operating with a share price at least an order of magnitude higher than it should have been, now they are about correctly priced and still growing.
apple owned apple store is completely and totally operated under anti-trust laws. no idea if they have breached any of those here but being apple owned and operated doesn't excuse them from the requirement to not engage in anti competitive behaviour.
Would find it just as likely they are using Brexit as a convenient more acceptable excuse as "we are moving to a tax haven, thanks" doesn't go down well at the moment.
you seem to be delusional on price.for a back road like this you are looking at well under a $1 million per kilometre. and that 5.2 million was not a full build, just a repaving with solar. basically you are looking at a minimum 1 order of magnitude higher price.
promising research? wtf? I love Solar, think it is great where used appropriately, this is just fucking braindead though. Every aspect of this can be achieved through less expensive and far more efficient means with solar. May as well start putting solar panels under trees as some light will filter down, how about the bottom of the ocean, some light still gets to the shallower parts. Or how about putting the fucking stuff where it can take full benefit of the sun without having artificial efficiency and cost constraints placed on it. It isn't like the world lacks abundant roof space or hell panels on top of the roadside lights would make more sense.
yep, spend 5.2 million to save a couple of hundred dollars a month on power. Even if they manage to halve the cost that is a massive 2.5 billion dollars to run some street lights for that 1000 kilometres, some real fucked up economics happening there. Even from a green angle that money could be way better spent reducing pollution or with proper green power plants.
how is this in any way similar to SCO? Nokia actually invented the stuff and patented and even licensed it out. Unless you are comparing Apple to SCO in that they are both a bunch of money grubbing pricks?
you would have to be a farely unbalanced individual to feel the need to use that many different forms of social media, would not surprise me if they were already clinically depressed searching for attention/love/acceptance/friends etc
The problem is the Veto rights are both evil and necessary. Sadly ALL the countries with Veto rights absue them atrociously, but without the veto rights the security council would become just a popularity contest with everyone voting in their blocks and whoever has numbers would simply vote on sanctions etc against those they disagree with and the end result is a pointless mess (kinda like what we have now), can't really think of any system that would be effective though unless somehow a council of truly independent people could be found to have some overriding votes (fat chance of that).
VR is currently still in its gimmick phase with far too many limitations, be that PSVR, Oculus or vive. Nintendo are missing nothing by avoiding it in this iteration.
geez, I did not realise pornography had been so available and rampant for the last few thousand years. prostitution being immoral or criminal is very much a modern thing as is the extensive access to pornography. Prostitution though has been common in every city in every country for thousands of years in one form or another.

So I can plug in my headphones and have my phone charging at the same time? I assume the dongle allows this otherwise I do see a huge problem?
They aren't locked down, you can run anything you like on them

"The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.", this has never been more true.

no need to waste money on permitting it, Uber can do it without government approval
Bullshit, Nokia only sold off one part of the company, they are not in any way shape or form just a shell company.
how is this in any way similar to SCO? Nokia actually invented the stuff and patented and even licensed it out. Unless you are comparing Apple to SCO in that they are both a bunch of money grubbing pricks?
It isn't patent trolling when you actually did invent the stuff, used it and tried to license it.

It really is time to start throwing Uber execs in Jail. They want to play the civil disobedience card then their execs need to wear the consequences.

at least the html5 video is slightly less likely to also come with a malicious payload.
