People care about signal quality, resistence to shocks, extra devices (can I plug an external antena to my phone?), battery duration, and a lot of other hardware qualities. And Nokia always dominated those qualities.
Now, put it in a market with a fixed size, a zero sum game where a fixed amount is distributed to everybody, in proportion to their position. Now you actualy move forward by choosing strategy B, because some companies will choose strategy A. Your goal is to force as many of your competitors as you can into the bottom score, so they must choose strategy A and you'll move forward.
And then somebody makes a well fit innovation, the game stops being zero sum and strategy B puts you near the bottom without a notice.
There are a few examples in history of some virus that didn't evolve that trait very well. Altough they don't end well for the virus, they don't end well for the people either.
And, please, stop to think about the difference, and what part of math people could use better in their lifes before you start preaching something like that.
Yeah, for some subjects, route learning is the only one that works. Those are a tiny minority, and gerenalizing it can lead to serious problems once your students starts get get a bit more advanced.
No, it's not. If the government won't let their friends corporation die, and won't let they suffer any negative consequence from their acts, then it's exactly like communism. Not worse.
There is plenty of evidence that there is no teapot orbiting the Sun, that's why people belive that there is no teapot orbiting the Sun. If we didn't have our knowlegde about planetary formation, and all our telescopes, deciding the question in any way would be a matter of faith.
With the Raspberry Pi, we got the start of the open ARM PCs. If Microsofts succeeds in closing the x86 ones, I don't think they'll get the expected result.
Well, bigger wings make the takeoffs shorter. I always tought the U2 was so big because it needed a huge operational range, but takeoff distance is at least a nice siede effect (if not the actual reason for them).
MS executives knew quite well that MS was dying (even back then), and they needed to do something. The Windows 8 family was "something", thus they did it.
And there are always a lot of people that get it wrong about MS products (except for Windows 8), so it is easy to dissmiss anybody that says that there is doom ahead.
Or the KDE strategy. Looks like everybody decided that this is the right way to do it, except for Apple (two completely different systems) and Microsoft (one interface to rule them all).

There is no such option. Given enough people, government aways exist.
We can call it something like "Constitution". Maybe somebody will try it some day.
You can't do much with the knowledge that a government wants you dead.
But a government can do a lot with the knowledge that you want it replaced.
Viruses also evolved to not be too lethal.

Looks like the URSS won the Cold War.
Look at the proceedings of the Oracle x Google case about the Java patents. Oracle listed him as a paid source.
When you look for something, not finding it is evidence that it's not there. The more you look, the strongest is your evidence.
That's not absence of contrary evidence. That's actual evidence of the absence.
Nope, I'll have to disagree.

So, you have faith in a corrupt* version of the Occam's Razor argument?
Is it so hard for you to say "I don't know, and I don't care"?
* Yes, corrupt. The Occam's Razor was a gideline to choose what thesis to explore first. It has nothing to do with failth.
Will they also be killed when the pyramid is done?
It's bordering nitpick, but iron != steel.
I guess the GP was asking how Windows 8 could be a security risk. Not TPM. (And, yes, if that was the case, it was a joke.)
With the Raspberry Pi, we got the start of the open ARM PCs. If Microsofts succeeds in closing the x86 ones, I don't think they'll get the expected result.
Well, the TPM is an open specification. You don't really have to trust anybody, just read it and see for yourself how it's a problem.
Well, bigger wings make the takeoffs shorter. I always tought the U2 was so big because it needed a huge operational range, but takeoff distance is at least a nice siede effect (if not the actual reason for them).
The have more and bigger spots, and have more variance in their total luminosity. It's not interference, the stars themselves are noisy.

Untill the government gets over you for "destroying" public property, or the neighborhood apearance.
Differences abound. Between the few similarities are the facts that all of them are giant corporations that are spying on us.
And you are talking about wich grand spying corportation? Google, MS, Apple...
Anyway, Google has no grip on Accer, so that's a bonus to them.
I can imagine Google would stop to think about that... But, Accer cares about it because?
If somebody starts to want another cheap OS, Accer will simply sell computers with "another cheap OS".
