Apple rejected a lot of video streaming apps? My iPhone has: Netflix UStream TV.com Qik tosh.0 Discovery channel Hulu plus [adult swim] Facebook video Al-Jazeera English

Is there a video streaming app that Apple has rejected?
Sorry, but that's not exactly true. They've been stopping Muslims at the border for a decade now, copying their SIM cards and hard drives, asking how often they pray, etc. CAIR has hundreds of compaints and recently joined a lawsuit 2 weeks ago to curtail the practice.
The supposed "cure for baldness" comes about every few years and grabs all these headlines, and then weirdly enough a few years later there's another headline about a new "cure for baldness."
Let's see, so far I've seen the discovery of : Hair Implants Rogaine Propecia now this?
Americans spend more money on hair research than the world spends on stopping malaria from killing millions a year.
[I’m not a designer but the attorney hired by a designer. I’m informing the client over the phone that he’s being sued for not paying the amount specified.]
Me: “Good afternoon, my name is [xxx], representing [designer] and [company]. We’re calling about payment that has not yet been received for a project which you agreed to pay for.”
Client: “What?! Who’s suing me?! Who is this?”
Me: “As I said, my name is [xxx], representing [designer] and [company]. You have X,XXX.XX that was supposed to be paid several months ago, as agreed upon by a contract with my clients.”
Client: “Are you suing me for a website? You’re not making any damn sense!”
Me: “You owe someone a fair deal of money and you’ve made it very clear that you have no intention of paying. I have several emails from your email address responding to my clients with messages such as “sayonara, suckers” and I am calling to see if you’d like to pay your fees now, or if we need to bring this into a courtroom, which I’m sure we’re all looking to avoid.”
Client: “I don’t know who this is or what the hell you want from me but listen up: fooling someone to make you a website isn’t a crime!”
Me: “You’re actually looking at some large fines and — should this be considered a felony — jail time.”
Client: “You’re a damn lawyer, you should know websites aren’t real. A website isn’t a thing, you can’t steal it! [designer] can still look at it, it’s still kinda his!”
[Within three days time, the designer received a check with the amount listed and an additional $20.00 “for your asshole lawyer boyfriend.” The designer had to resist framing the check for the novelty.]
I assume while it's on the track they're flooring it to autobahn-esque speeds. Standard ranges (the ones you'd find on a car sticker) don't usually assume you're going beyond the posted speed limits.
If Facebook is going to ban one side's speech, let's see them do the same for the others. And yet Facebook pages with such titles as "mavet laaravim" (Death to the Arabs) abound...
Who is Goldman competing against here? Are they trying to snatch these people up with huge bonuses because there are other financial firms (any major ones left?), or is it just Goldman's desire to grow their profits, or both?
I don't see that quote concerning 9/11. What I see instead is, "I was happy and could not believe what was happening. All the crimes the US has committed in the world. This just shows, what goes around comes around, even to the US... I applaud the act. The US and Israel have been slaughtering the Palestinians for years. Now it is coming back at the US."
Still repugnant, but there is a difference between your quote and this one.
How will students learn the proper techniques to program for major OSes and platforms like Macs, iPhones (Objective-C), Android devices (Java), Microsoft's C#, Python, Perl, C++, and the dozens of OOP languages?
I don't think so. TinyUmbrella works by interrupting the upgrade process in iTunes, after iTunes upgrades the OS it tries to contact Apple to verify the signature on the upgrade. TinyUmbrella blocks the connection to Apple's server, so iTunes aborts the baseband upgrade with a temporarily bricked phone and an iTunes error 1013. All you do next is put the iPhone in DFU mode and finish the jailbreak and then activate the phone.
Are you extending the idea of "I can do what I want with my hardware" to include "I should be able to pirate OSes?" Because you've lost me at that end.
It seems these DRM schemes are getting harder and harder to break as the manufacturers are learning from the unlocking community. The iPhone hasn't had an unlock for iOS 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3 yet due to Apple closing more security holes and implementing new checksums. (Anyone who has an unlocked iPhone for 4.1 and 4.2 is doing a hacked form of upgrade that prevents a full firmware/baseband upgrade, but new buyers are completely out of luck)
It seems like the rooting/jailbreaking/unlocking/modchipping community kinda small; a few geniuses figure it out and publish it in a handy software package for the rest. What does this mean for the future, will the locking/DRM powers outpace them?
Citation? If anything, there is a call by some social conservatives to shove all porn to.xxx domains so they can be easily filtered, and another more libertarian call to not have the government mess with the internet.
I don't think Apple is trying to cripple web performance.
Apple had been pushing for Web apps as early as 2007, showing developers how to do it at WWDC, showcasing third-party ones on their website, and originally saying that it would offer all a user would need instead of a compiled app. The developer SDK and third-party apps only came after a year of popular demand, and appeared in iOS 2.0
Their marketing/PR for the new iOS update stated new faster javascript support etc. They're not going to both promote it while trying to kill it
Full HTML5 apps (like Google Wave for iPhone or BlackSwan) skip the App Store completely and show up as icons on the Home screen, they run outside of Safari and have application caches, as Apple specified to developers
While it's mighty peculiar that MobileSafari will run differently than Webkit-using apps, I don't think this is malice by Apple.
Not really, the argument was that it would make filtering slightly simpler in the future by blocking the entire TLD (as well as existing.com porn sites). I don't think conservatives would have a problem with that.
Turning Point is maybe your best choice. They may have been the one with the $40 clicker option, but they also have alternatives like iPhone/Blackberry/Android/laptop apps so students can respond that way. Bingo, no need for expensive clickers and you get the individual vote tally.

Really, how so? They may have been discovered accidentally but their primary purpose today is to treat, slow, or prevent baldness.

First, this hasn't just been targeting Piracy, AnonOps.ru was briefly seized as well (DHS logo and everything), but it seems to be back up now.
Second, how did the sites continue? Just move to a new domain name? Tell people to go straight to the IP address?
Tor is useless if you can't even get an IP address. They were likely using dialup to other countries
You remind me of the client from Clients from Hell:
[I’m not a designer but the attorney hired by a designer. I’m informing the client over the phone that he’s being sued for not paying the amount specified.]
Me: “Good afternoon, my name is [xxx], representing [designer] and [company]. We’re calling about payment that has not yet been received for a project which you agreed to pay for.”

I wonder if this is something you can sue over. For example, is reusing the same password (as in the case of HBGary) considered negligent?

Seriously? It's a little early for April Fools.

Jailbreak != Unlock. GP said unlock.

Meh, at least he/she is not rude about his/her viewpoints. They are at least better at debate then the rest of the ACs
Fascinating, the mention of bananas was smart, since there's something known as Banana Equivalent Dose
Doctors can tweet in general, but they just shouldn't be publicly replying to patients about their test results via Twitter etc..
again, citation? Never heard that before
Citation? If anything, there is a call by some social conservatives to shove all porn to .xxx domains so they can be easily filtered, and another more libertarian call to not have the government mess with the internet.
