    How many countries have an embargo on Cuba? (hint, one)

    The US's embargo on Cuba has not strengthened Castro's grip on the population, all it's done is made Cubans poorer, which _should_ make the population dislike their leader for letting that happen..

    So wait, every post by "Anonymous Coward" is actually just one person? You?

    Apple is a computer manufacturer. Who are they going to lease from? They obviously use their own hardware..

    They better work on battery life then. If I play games and use the internet on my iPhone for more than an hour I've taken about 50% of my battery away.

  8. Re:The states don't win on these deals.... on Apple Plans $1 Billion iDataCenter · · Score: 2, Insightful

    How easy do you think it is to move a $1,000,000,000 data center? I'd venture to say it's not even possible without spending more than the actual cost of the center.

    Same thing. His likeness is him. He appeared in the movie.

    So does that mean Billy Crudup wasn't really in Watchmen?

    They left Schwarzenegger out of Terminator 4 for a reason.

    Having just left the theater.. I can tell you Arnie is in T4 and his scene was pretty sweet.

    3G kills your iphone's battery in less than two hours. There's no way someone could actually "run a webserver" off their iphone..

    Seems to me the second largest search engine likely has 50k servers or more..

    Apple does not have your best interests in mind, only its bottom line.

    Wait, you mean corporations aren't looking out for me? Who *are* they looking out for then? Themselves? Psh!

    They should have used # instead of the backslash for namespaces, that way, what I type will coincide with what I wish I was doing to the asshat that came up with that namespace delimiter.

  21. Re:Why? on Apple Rumored To Want To Buy Twitter · · Score: 1

    Apple already has a massive user base with macs, ipods and iphones.. this makes no sense, especially since twitter has no revenue or business model.

    That said, nothing of value was lost.

    Aside from our freedom of speech, that is.

    That's strange, I didn't realize the constitutional amendments could be voided with the passage of regular laws.

  23. Re:Not a tax scam on Battle Lines Being Drawn As Obama Plans To Curb Tax Avoidance · · Score: 2, Informative

    Remember the motto "No taxation without representation!"?? That is what the revolution was largely over.

    So.. you weren't allowed to vote in the 2008 election? Seems to me that Americans today do in fact get taxed, while being represented (provided they actually voted).

  24. Re:Not a tax scam on Battle Lines Being Drawn As Obama Plans To Curb Tax Avoidance · · Score: 4, Insightful

    There is effectively no difference between very high levels of taxation and a system of pure wealth redistribution.

    What's your definition of "high"? If you say 35% is high, then there's a massive difference between the two.
