Stop trying to come up with lame excuses. Apple hasn't come up with anything new since the early 1980's. They just take what someone else built and remake it. They know that all they have to fall back on is patient lawsuits because there WILL be better devices released by other companies within a year that Apple first releases their model. What it boils down to is Apple us using patient lawsuits to prevent it from getting crushed like in the 1980's
Then make it a law that if you get a backdoor virus and someone use your computer as a proxy that you're held just as accountable as the person who did the bad things assuming they can also catch him at some point. This would have one of the following outcomes:
1. People that don't want to learn how to keep their computer secure will get off the internet.
2. People will finally learn how to keep their computer secure and not clock on every URL, File Attachment or Pop Advertisement thrown in their face.
For a phone, 16gigs is more then enough space unless you also want to use it as your portable music then maybe a 32gig. Movies on a phone is crap if you ask me. Just way to small.
Now a tablet on the other hand, 64gig+ is what I want. I got the 64gig iPad and it's about full. It's a mix of apps, music and movies. My Transformer Prime has 96gigs (64gig microSD external card) and 128gigs if I have the keyboard dock connected. Over all it's about 40% full but I have only had it a few months. Having the extra space comes in handy when I want to transfer large amounts of data between home and work.
If the Nexus 16gig also included an external microSD slot then I could justify the huge price jump for a meesly 8gigs but just for that 8gig, $50 seems a bit much. I don't care if people say it's standard. Everyone is over pricing it.
"The last time Earth saw this sort of rate-change was the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum."
You should note there were no humans around at that time, yet it occurred.
You're forgetting that Global Warming fanatics only see the past ~50 years. I've personally talked to a few that never heard of the drought and extreme heat during the mid 1930's which took place during the great dust bowl. Sure a few will go back ~150 years but very few will even acknowledge the fact that the earth has gone though extreme temperature changes over the past 500+ million years.
What about some jQuery plugin that requires 1.9 or 2.0?
Sorry but I don't like having to write a website 6 times over. One for each IE 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 then Firefox and Chrome. Writing a site now and once I'm done go back and add CSS tweaks for special IE is already a pain in the ass.
I like this however I'm guessing anyone that starts using this will have a boat load of complains thus 2.0 won't be used for several years. Sadly. Damn IE slowing down even non-IE users!
^^ This. The Japanese one could have 5 champions or they could all be losers.
Some of the extras are the goofy little outfits and 5 seconds of entertainment many of the contestants put on before they start their run.
On and lets not forget "Women of Ninja Warrior". Komiya Rie, Mikie Hara, and Ayako Miyake. Lets not forget Sara Jean Underwood. Maybe the American version needs to get her on there. As for the guys, Makoto Nagano is just a pure badass.
If all the occupiers that were else where, even the violent ones out in Oakland California, all went to Washington then maybe they could have done something. Instead they chose to be fragmented all over the country to the point that no one cared. In the end all they did was cause various small businesses to close down due to them camping in front of the shops scaring away customers.
They won't admit it but in the end they did more harm then good. Their so called "leader" should also be investigated. Hundreds of thousands if not a few million dollars were donated and only some of it was spent to buy care products and handed out to the occupiers. Who knows where the rest went to.
as bad as O is, it would be worse with republicans in charge.
I truly do believe that.
Then I truly believe you are narrow minded.
I truly believe that any president, R or D would do this. You're forgetting that in the public light they bash each other and act like enemies but behind closed doors they all work together to fill each others bank accounts.
I still laugh at the so called occupier idiots that protest the rich CEO's (well unless it's Steve Jobs/Apple) and banks. They should really be marching in Washington.
The only problem with this is, I've gone to a blog that was exploited and seen NoScript block JS from some random domain named 8845.cn. If everything is whitelisted and you have no popup notice of all the JS sites being executed (which would be annoying) then you could get screwed over. I would rather check everyone out before letting them into my house then assume they are safe and leave the door wide open. =)
Exact same here. The only annoying part is trying to watch that embedded video on some blog and trying to figure out which domain(s) to temporarily allow. It can be tricky with all these CDN domains now. If I can't get it after allowing 3-4 domains then I say fuck it and move on. No lost on my part.
I use it but the other way around. Everything is blocked but I whitelist popular domains I know are going to be safe such as google.com or ebay.com and even slashdot.org. Other domains I visit on a regular bases that prove to be good end up getting whitelisted also.
I haved used iGoogle from day one and will be rather sad to see it go. The other services (other then google video) I haven't even heard of. I'm shocked they didn't make the Google Video change earlier.
I'm kinda with you on this. I was considering buying one of these for my mom but 8gigs seems so little these days and $50 for an extra 8gigs is mind blowing. With the price of memory I would expect 32gigs for that extra $50 now days. They would have been smart to go that route. I'm 100% sure they would be selling FAR more $250 models and still making about the same amount of profit.
I agree however I would love to have Watson take over my phone calls. That's the ONLY part I hate about my job. Granted the phone calls are far and few between, I just hate them.
I have a pretty good health plan right now. I also make less then your average middle American and work for a pretty small tech company. ~15 employees small tech company.
Yes you can and I have it set to prompt me each time however it doesn't seem to work when you uncheck "Accept 3rd party cookies" even after adding the domain to the accept list. I tried.
I disabled 3rd-party cookies in FF and everything was fine for years till my bank changed their online banking. For the longest time I couldn't get it to work then one day I enabled 3rd-party cookies and BAM it worked. Yeah it just seems wrong when an online banking site requires you to also connect to a 3rd-party domain for some unknown reason. The 3rd-party domain is "billdomain.com"
Also I have been a HUGE soda drinker all my life and I'm underweight. This ban is going to do nothing but waste even more government money. Can't get a 32-ounce ? Buy two 16-ounce drunks! Will the ban prevent that?

What about the Compaq TC1000 which was released ~7 years before the first iPad. HP Compaq Tablet PC TC1000 - TM5800 1 GHz - 10.4" TFT.

Can't ask for the Moon. If you do the NASA will sue you because it has some items on the Moon that belong to them. =)

Either one would result in a better internet. =)

Or more like we cut though their back yard on our way to Germany.
If you lost it in a TARDIS then I could understand but loosing it in a phone booth? =)

True however we saved them two times. So I think we're one up on them. =)
3D porn? Where? I'm gonna have to look into this.

Lets hope they fixed the bad GPS and WiFi problems that plague the Transformer Prime.

I don't think that chick has a weight problem.

What's next? 1 twinkie a month limit?
