woah woah woah.. 10 years ago iTunes was not something you could buy music with or put music onto a device with. If you would have said "around 10 years" i would give it to you though. I would give you that it could put music onto the iPod.. but not that you could buy music. Wikipedia says the music store opened in April 2003. That was too late. Napster in 1999 changed the way many people got their music. Pirating became too easy! iTunes music store was not very nice in the beginning either. Low bitrate DRM songs that you could only put on your iPod.. no other device. That was also a fairly one-direction thing too. Getting music off the ipod was not easy/clean. It took many years for that to change.
However, you are correct in many things. If you ONLY used apple products and services (the exception being you could use a supported Windows OS) then everything just worked.
umm, i am NOT helping you move if we have to carry every couch, table, chair, and box 15 minutes each way. That parking area would also have to be a post office. How many mail boxes would have to be crammed into that space? Trash pickup? Oh! Cableman/electrician/plumber has to lug all their equipment and tools out to your house and back. ah, i know a better one; You are having a heart attack.. the ambulance is now a 4x4 monster truck with off-road capabilities so it can reach your house. Either that or they will fireman-carry your body to their ambulance 15min away.
I actually saw a lot of 113s in Iraq.. fresh paint jobs and everything. My guess is they took them out of boneyards and renovated them?
I do like your commentary on heavy vs light though. IMO (and i'll be flamed for this) big infantry was so balls slow they were practically useless. The only operations they seemed capable of was large cordon and search. Actually responding to an attack? hell no. QRF? not possible. It takes trucks and track to move troops into the fight. I think infantry is dead.. it's all mech inf now. Infantry without transportation is a huge waste. Not putting guns on that transportation is also a waste. Infantry need to remain tightly integrated to Armor.
The US Army is still using a peacetime number of troops (there have been temporary increases by 10's of thousands though). So the Army got around troop availability by trying to turn every soldier into a trigger puller instead of a paper pusher/laborer. There was a huge reduction in non-deployable engineers, mechanics, medics, drivers, clerical, judicial, and more. Many of those jobs are now civilian/contractor (i'm sure you've noticed the massive increase in contractors working for the army in recent years). Some entire national guard units have also been converted from low demand jobs like chemical engineers into high demand jobs like military police.
Put simply, the US Army can't just expand it's authorized capacity so it converts as many non-combat jobs into combat jobs as possible.
According to California officials, there are no laws that would bar Google from testing such models, as long as there's a human behind the wheel who would be responsible should something go wrong.
However i would say that there is a difference from operating the car and manually driving the car. The google spokesperson used the phrase, manually driving.
PS3 makes for a crappy media computer. It can't play as many audio/video formats and you can't automate any tasks since the PS3 isn't programmable in any way.
I have a decent setup and i didn't do any research to make it. The pc has boxee to play vids. uTorrent has RSS feeds to my favorite shows. So after a show airs, it automatically downloads to a storage box, boxee picks it up as a new episode, i sit down at the TV and see all the new episodes to watch. All of the software is free. The PS3 should be able to compete though, they have enough money to do so.
I doubt it could be forked. That's what Google tried to do and some parts of the implementation are patented. Microsoft forked with C# but had to get some kind of Sun approval after the fact.
Well, this is more like copying a car. The original driver of the car still has their car. At most it is denying a seller the money for a copy of the car. But! This report says that illegal copiers end up buying _more_ than people who don't copy.
But i get what you're trying to say. Even though they buy more, they still illegally copied. So, the question then becomes.. if they didn't illegally copy.. would they have bought more or less? That helps determine whether illegal copying is a benefit or detriment to sales.
I hope you don't think college is required for learning how to hold a conversation or learning about the world in general. Also, you shouldn't cut him down for wanting to learn something specific. In most cases, college classes tell you what to learn. It is a memorize and regurgitate system, correct? The better version of that is critically thinking about the items you had to memorize and come up with opinions on them. Most people do not spend their free time educating themselves but it is not a requirement to pay a university to guide you in education.
Not that i agree with your assessment of the AR15, i've only used the M16A2/4 and M4. But I would say you should only choose a gun that the local army and police stockpile ammo for. You would have to stockpile a vast amount of ammo to make sitting in one place worth it. All that shooting will do nothing but attract more zombie targets and expend more ammo. Being mobile (light!) seems more preferable, imo.
It's like being in the forest, meeting Rambo asking for food in exchange for money, and selling him your shit in a bag. Oh god, that was great.. thanks.
Because it's possible you could invent something and then not be able to use it because someone else invented something similar and patented it. I agree that it is unlikely Apple could make a phone from scratch. However i really don't know what apple has licensed to use legitimately to make their phone. It's possible they have a license to patents that cover similar ground as Nokia's patents. But that also sounds very unlikely. I'm currently lacking the imagination to come up with a reasonable explanation for Nokia using five bum patents against Apple.

Plug technique works great!
That picture is selective. Not all tablets looked like that pre-ipad. For example, take a look at my old visionplate: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/tibman/VisionPlate/DSCN0921.jpg
Looks almost exactly like an Ipad.. except it predates the ipad by many years.
I still printf in c++... Come at me bro
Maybe you can't see them as AC? You can turn them on/off in Account->Discussions->Sig

you have a HMMWV to sell? i would gladly buy it, robotic or not.
I agree with you but i'd say that a soldier wears a uniform. A fighter would wear whatever.

phew, that's a pricey memory implant. I'd start with +1's to make sure all is well first
I would say, "They did it for the lulz."

Not exactly a good reason though.
