We're not at War with any country. What's your point? The targets are paramilitary aka armed civilians who shoot first. They don't belong to any government and don't respect first world boundary lines.
No you can sit back and watch neighbors and countrymen die from actions taken by the targets of said military strikes. Sometimes the best defense (and the only one that works) is an aggressive response.
And you don't suppose it was Samsung et al the existing phone makers who tried to keep Apple out?
Which is more likely? The old guard with everything to lose, no need to innovate and a complacent consumer base - does everything in its power to keep out competition. Or. A new competitor with everything to gain, innovation oozing out of every pore, sues and fights at every turn to stay in the game.
I do believe that ARM is not a chip or even a product. It's an architecture that is licensed by others. This means that the company behind ARM makes money on every chip regardless of price. They don't care if it costs $17 or $170 to manufacture and distribute, they have little overhead so it's almost all profit at this point.
Intel OTOH sells chips. They a much higher amount of manufacturing and sales costs.
If you primarily serve Australia then a local host is fine. If you serve an international audience that host is going to have poor latency for a majority of your visitors.
AWS is an option. You could also use an edge caching service like Akamai. Akamai is likely much more expensive than AWS.
That hasn't been the use case since dial up. It's been completely voided since webmail took over. Only business users even open up email clients anymore - and really it's just the corporate Exchange users. Everyone else either uses their phone or uses webmail, IM instead or OMG Facebook.
Anecdotally I've never had to use Windows. Every job I've had was using a Mac and I've always used them at home. The closest I get is testing websites in IE in a VM or on occasion a Windows PC that I only use for testing.
And skiing is an incredibly dangerous sport. People die all the time. Worse they get injured and cost money. All those Olympic athletes make it look cool to ski. Kids are trying it out and their parents even take them. In fact athletic sports in general are leading causes of expensive surgeries with all the broken bones, concussions and other injuries for people of all ages.
Driving is even more dangerous. Alcohol leads to many deaths every day. Over eating is a general drain on the economy.
Should I continue or is it clear that any activity can be harmful to your health and leads to unnecessary costs both in healthcare and in productivity.
When someone is injured or dies while playing a sport it's a tragedy but when they get lung cancer after 40 years of smoking its a plague on society.
We all choose how to live our lives. Some people engage in risky behavior of one sort, others go a different route.
Why should I have to subsidize those who choose to play basketball at 40 and end up with a crippling injury? Why should that be any different from a smoker who gets cancer at 40. They are both preventable.
"If it doesn't work somewhere, then don't build the tracks there. And then we have plenty of cities that are close to each other, and which would benefit from such a chain."
Maybe. There is the POV that if you have to maintain an airline infrastructure to support travel for many destinations, it might just be more cost effective to not duplicate that with a separate competing infrastructure.
OTOH it could be the airlines lobby to prevent said competition to maintain what profits they can.
The truth is likely that both hypotheses are correct.
Use Google Voice / Grand Central or whatever it's called. Give out a new number (you get many numbers) and set up a pre screening catch all. Then review any caught calls at your leisure and block spam.
The initial setup is a pain but you get the control you want.
"I am not an expert on radiation by any means...."
Looks like you pre-answered you're own questions.
For clarity though we'll all just assume that the photo op at a Robot Expo wasn't an example of how the system would be used at Fukushima, site of a nuclear reactor meltdown.
When your company says "take this MacBook Pro with a 250GB SSD and 16GB RAM, Retina display plus a 27in Apple Display or take this other laptop that doesn't have those and can't support the equivalent non-Apple setup" which do you choose?
Scanners on the desktop are a scam as they exist today. With modern update systems most client systems are routinely and frequently updated to deal with known vulnerabilities.
Scanners at the router or higher are ideal. Even better would be scanners that not only use signatures but also use patterns to find possible malware and flag it for sand boxing and monitoring at the client level.
Even better would be a distributed network of such scanners communicating with each other - though this opens up potential vectors for abuse (even if the scanners can only blacklist, not whitelist it could be used to DDS an application or othe payload on the network). In other words a distributed immune system that serves to catalog antibodies known to be suspicious - let the client implement the T-cell role of deciding what to do about those targeted "cells".

Is $6 fair and reasonable? Is it the same fair and reasonable that other licensees get?
The other thing is irrelevant.

"Browsers and web development are overrated and overhyped."
Compared to what? Newspapers and magazines? Movies, TV and Radio? Running a brick and mortar retail operation? Video games?
What industry in your estimation is not overrated or overhyped. Farming?
Woosh!
They hack it because its there, not because alternatives don't exist.
But who is going to buy their chips?
Not Apple. Not Samsung.
Intel doesn't have a major buyer lined up. They'll have to license the architecture out for pennies or make a new market.
Could be a case of too little too late unless they are willing and able to do low margin, high volume.

Exchange support is fantastic.
Meeting alerts rock, calendar is big and easy to manage.
Multiple email account support, unified or separate.
Video conference and Skype support. Webex support.
Games. Sometimes you just need a few minutes of downtime.
If you *need* to take notes, bring a laptop or a pen and paper. Any phone keyboard is deficient

Just sayin'

What's so hard about a one way dump of data? Open an outgoing port and send the data. Block all incoming requests.

How many cars do you see that we're built in the 80s? Not too many right.
Cars may not be disposable put they do have an operational lifetime of decades not centuries.

The solution is to only use encrypted services. If your fav site or does not encrypt ask the provider to add that option.

Huh, that's funny. They've just barely got it running on OS X again. Took a decade after they switched to Windows focused support.
So you're saying licensing should be compulsory. Maybe a review board available if there is a terms dispute.
Sounds good to me.
