The obvious reason would be because voters could stop it. Why would any gov't body take a chance on mass surveillance being stopped before it even gets started?
I suppose you could install the app and NOT put a shortcut on your homescreen. If it is an app used but only very little, then you don't need the shortcut. Also on Android you can make folders on the home screen. So if you put all FB apps in that folder and touch the folder all apps in there are available.
There's nothing to save. People will go with Win 8 because there is no alternative other than Mac. And that's not what a casual person is willing to spend. And MS knows IG.
I understand that, but couldn't internal emails go through an internal server? The article didn't mention if it was just external or if it was internal and external.
The OP never claimed that you could fix a board yourself, have the repair go sour, and then expect the company to fix that.
If, OTOH, you fix caps on the board, and then something else goes wrong, which is not provably related to your repair, then the board is *still* under warranty, at least in the US.
Fair enough. If the problems are not related, I'll buy that argument
That is the same law that allows you to have your oil changed at your local garage, rather than your car maker's local dealership, and still have an intact warranty (unless the local garage screws up).
So the screw up falls on the garage to fix their mistake. But if YOU change the oil and somehow put a wrench through the oil pan while taking out the plug, and you're not a licensed mechanic, it would not fall under the warranty for the manufacture to replace. A licensed mechanic would fall under a qualified technician.
Look at your microwave, DVD player, or any electronic. Find that piece of tape that says "warranty void if broken"
That piece of tape does not have the force of law. It is there to frighten you. You have a legal right to have service performed by any qualified person, at least in the USA, without voiding your warranty. That person can be you. Replacing bad caps on a motherboard with caps which meet or exceed their specification, for example, is something you have a legal right to do without voiding the warranty as it applies to other components.
That piece of tape does have the force of the companies of warranty and their terms for honoring it. Just because you know how to replace bad caps on a board, doesn't mean you're qualified. Go ahead and do that, and fry it and then go back to the manufacture and say "Well I know how to do it so I did it and well oops."
There's also reasons why companies have certified technician partners. Yes, you may have a legal right to do whatever, it is your property, but that doesn't mean the company has the legal right to fix your mistake.
To what part of the phone's software is that tape attached?
The OS itself. You know, the component of the equation that makes the thing do what it's supposed to.
There's a reason why we have different words for "hardware" and "software", you know.
Not when it comes to phones. The software is what will be changed. You won't see someone put a chip in an Atrix to make it run on Verizon, just like you won't see anyone put a chip in the Bionic when it's released to run on AT&T networks.
Opening an electronic device case to put in a 3rd party component is no different than opening up an OS to put in 3rd party components. If you designed an OS for any device and locked it up, and someone bought the device, unlocked it and bricked it, which is like putting a 3rd party component in a device and breaking it, would you actually honor the warranty? Now be realistic in your answer. Would you actually swallow the price of taking the device back, paying a guy to reload the original OS on it, or even possibly having to replace it outright, because the guy did something to break it that wasn't by natural wear and tear or design flaw?
Look at your microwave, DVD player, or any electronic. Find that piece of tape that says "warranty void if broken"
So, opening the operating system of the phone is like opening the case of an electronic device. Hell even if you open a big name computer like HP or Dell to do your own upgrade, it voids the warranty. If you chose to do something that could've and possibly did break the phone, why should the manufacture be responsible for blatant user error? Warranties cover wear and tear and DOA devices. But if you do something to break it other than normal wear and tear, why should the manufacture fix it?
You're right. I read th whole article before submitting, but I did read it quickly and missed that "can't do it again today" point to the sentence near the end.
is that people like fast cars and practical cars. Right now a family car to fit a family of 5 and get groceries and practical mileage per cost just isn't there. And it won't be there. Not to mention terrain. I live in North East region of Pennsylvania. Lots of mountain and hills here which is a knock against electric vehicles. Also farm country here. Farmers won't want drive their trucks hauling equipment and having to travel the rough terrain of the fields, nor will it probably never be practical for any electric farm equipment. And the truth is, despite what the gov't says, they don't want to give up their reliance on the oil companies either.
Maybe. But probably not.
It's the parents don't teach kids how to use technology responsibly. And that's all technology. Computers. vehicles, tools, guns, etc.
But you seem, from this comment, to be some one that was all inquisitive and wanted to learn. Let's say you were the type that would rather party and not study or try hard at school. Would you be where you are right now?
Now the summary of the article seems to be biased towards disadvantaged kids, but even in families where both parents were there and 1 could stay home, if the stay at home parent was lazy and never urged the kid to study and work hard, would the kid use the computer for games or for learning?
It's not technology that's a problem. It's the proper training of the use of the tech.
Well they are.
But kids are going to be kids and if there is no role model to teach the kids to work hard and study, then what do you expect? It's not the computers causing the problem so much as the fact that kids will slack off if no one is there to teach them that they need to work for what they want.
Vigdor and Ladd concluded that home computers are put to more productive use in households where parental monitoring is more effective. In disadvantaged households, parents are less likely to monitor children’s computer use and guide children in using computers for educational purposes.
Couldn't they just put it in a conductive casing, much like a bullet goes in a casing, that could resist the re-entry into our atmosphere? Though that aim better be damn well perfect. Some Japanese citizen's house right next to the target could be in some danger...what a story that would be.
There are no plans to recover the flight test vehicle, one of four built, the Air Force stated."
I would suspect that there is some secret stuff in this plane....so unless it plans on breaking up into a huge fireball right before it hits the ocean.....wouldn't it be foolish to drop something like that and not retrieve it?

If it's 500 recipients total, wouldn't a mail list actually just sent to those 500 emails with one click?
Couldn't these be sent via an internal mail server? Would they go against the 500 mail limit?

While not specifically saying so he did imply that "yourself" be lumped into a qualified person.

Because it effects the bottom line.
