arp poisoning doesn't work on wifi APs since they know the difference between LAN and WAN... and many of them don't allow LAN-to-LAN communication at all.
They did remove flash.. the latest Macbook Airs don't have flash installed, and Safari doesn't even prompt you to install it anymore.. instead you have to know to go to adobe's website to install flash.
I really can see it. Who can't see Steve Jobs announcing in 2 years that 10.8 will use the app store exclusively? With a giant slide that says "99% of all mac users exclusively use the app store already" and "No more messing with.dmgs" and "automatically stay up to date for all your software".
He'll push getting rid of manual software installation as a feature.
You use Google to defend SQL against NoSQL, conveniently ignoring the fact that Google is a flag waving NoSQL fan. Why do you think they created BigTable?
The fact that there are government game ratings at all. The US has game ratings through the ESRB, but they're not a government entity, and the ratings are just parental guidelines. It's not illegal for a 10 year old to play a game rated M, or see an R rated movie... and it's certainly not illegal for a game or a movie to forgo getting a rating at all.. in fact that's a selling point for a lot of DVDs.
Dynamic audio. The html5 audio tag is so bad, that browser makers have started developing their own audio APIs... unfortunately, they're still in the planning stages.
The UK has a higher crime rate than the US (85.6 crimes per 1000 people versus 80.1). It has double the burglaries per capita of the US, it has more car thefts per capita, and it has far more kidnappings.
C# is exactly like Java to program in, unless you need to do anything complicate like generate bytecode at runtime.
Except for where it's not. Like C# supporting closures, and not making the distinction between primitives and objects... etc. Actually, C# has very little in common with Java.
Someone animating the next Pixar movie is going to be using a render farm... and they don't use expensive 12-core machines for that.. it's far cheaper to use thousands of cheap linux boxes.
My main problem is that in the last season, the Doctor seems to orate everyone to death. He's like the president from Independence Day, big speeches about nothing. In particular I'm thinking of the speech at stonehenge (which was absolutely ridiculous), as well as the speech to the weeping angels.
You're thinking of it like there's dedicated h264 hardware in, say, the iPhone. There isn't. There's hardware that accelerates decoding of h264... that same exact hardware can be used to decode VP8.
Think of it like how your desktop uses SSE3 to speed up h264 decoding... SSE3 doesn't contain an h264 decoder.
It's a broadcast, cable and sattelite video standard, a Blu-Ray standard. It is deeply entrenched in industrial and security video.
Except that in the US at least, the only one of those things that use it is BluRay. Broadcast, Cable, and Satellite still use mpeg2. Even many Blu-Ray's use mpeg2.

I love that the ITU is trying to standardize what is basically a version number.
It'd be like saying "Chrome 7 can't possibly be called that because it's doesn't match our standards for what a Version 7 browser does".

Especially since gnome-terminal with antialiasing is actually faster than xterm without.
Minecraft will never be available in the appstore because it's written in Java. Yet my mapping program for minecraft will be. That doesn't seem right.

Except it doesn't cost me $100 a year to get an app in a repository.

Seems to be setup exactly the same as for iOS apps.
I don't even have a printer... but for that, I'd use Send2Phone.
If I select Print... I get a print preview button on the print options page.. must be a linux feature.
That reminds me, I just had to agree to the new App store EULA on my iphone.. it was 58 pages long. Insane.

No. There is an additional second added every few years... at completely unpredictable times.

Yeah, 97% of American homes. But if you leave your house, no signal.
Android runs on tablets too... they weren't counting any of them either.
Nielsen just did a study that says 57% of blackberry owners plan to switch to Android or iPhone.
