no they should not be forced to sell os to clones. apple it just one of many company's abusing ip patents. there all going threw giant patents wars. we need to fix the underlying problem of letting corporations patent ideas. a patent on hardware that is being made is one matter or a os that's being sold. cloning a ipod and trying to sell it as a apple device of course that should not be allowed. making something simler and not even-using the same os or name should be just fine as its always been this is how this fucking nation survives and also why jobs are dieing because everyone is scared to make anything in the usa anymore. its like gateway using ibm because they make different desktop pcs and the case happens to be the same style of course with different names printed on them and both machine are specked different and don't even run the same os and are not even advertised as being remotely simler. any sane court would toss the case. but it seems everyone has lost there minds.
with the lose of flash mobile ios is acully better then futer andoride devices can ever hope to be. unless the web quickly ops flash to html 5 whiten the next couple years. im not being a apple fan-boy hear but if you ever went to the android market its clutter with garbage ware and viruses its totally useless unless you know the app you want. vs itunes that has its share of crap-ware but nowhere near the level of andoride. i knoe people will say will its becouse apple controls it etc but when you look at the latter it seems to do more good then harm.
agreed. many concepts no matter how good most of the time they relies the car will be to expensive. wile 4 years ago they might have been able to get in the market with a mid cost ev now they have to compete with the the volt that is the same thing. wile it might be only 40 miles on the battery's alone on the volt thats enough for most people for in town driving and if its not use the gas engine/hybred modes. but even the volt cost to much to ever get the gas saving back in extra cost.
yea i had this fight with my buddy when he wanted a Prius. the extra cost of the car you never get back in fule saving. where you can get something like a 40mpg chevy eco or another small car a 3rd of the cost. unless you plain on spending 20k in gas over the next 5-10 years the avg for people who buy new cars its not worth it.
agreed. im driving a truck with a camper slide in. yes its a 4 cylander and a light camper. but its not fuel effcent due to the wight. but with me currently traveling for work its the most useful car i have.
its just there hot button when there inverters go wtf why didn't this awesome game didnt sell. as for the pirate copy's i just made it a point not to play there games anymore. sucks to being i liked them but until they get there heads out of there asses they will not get my money.
game company's just like to smash the pirate button rather then admit there own mistakes ea pulling there games from steam to use there own i wanna be stream but with even more drm nobody whats basically wanting control. cd sales are dead for the same reason why most people have turned to steam it has the least amount of drm works offline etc. ubisoft a;ways online drm killed sales of 2 good games on the pc but blame pirates for crap sales. all content providers have lost there minds.
you said it. there declining pc sales is not the pirates. for one fps sales as a whole are down as a whole due to a flood of them. i wanted silent hunter 5 and assens creed as well but when they said they where going to have insane drm not just the standard steam drm i skipped both titles. drm only hurts people who buy the games and in this case there sales being everyone on the pc didn't want to deal with that.
why do these politations fail to understand this. piracy has been around forever and its not hurting there bottom line it never has. before pcs it was vhs and audio tapes. before those it was books. these companys refusing to upgrade to the new ways of the heavly connected world and offering shit product is whats really hurting them. i just got asked by my buddy today do you wanna go see a movie whats playing i replayed crap. its just there hot butten when there investors go wtf is going on why is your company's dieing a slow very loud death.
did you read the patents.there total bs. i had a felling Microsoft had no real case with weak ass patents rember they tried this bs before with there shadow company sco and the company was destroyed in court. now that we know the so called patents they will also be tore apart in court and probably get more then b&n willing to fight back.and a nda just to talk abought your no called volition is probably illagle on its own.
yea protesting never works but if they keep messing with these people rights its going to turn into much more then a protest. nobody messed with all the anti war protest or the guys in front of the white-house every day. some will even say only a uprising can fix things but we would go threw all the trouble of another civil war just to let the same assholes in power again they might behave for short time but it all repeats a government normally last around 300 years before its overthrown/reset and ares is overdue.
ubuntu was becoming the standard in linux with windows vista being crap. everyone was switching and happy at least any power user. then along comes windows 7 that is vista fixed and ubuntu blows there ui to pieces and releases buggy shit one after the other with a ui worse then gnome 3. people are leaving the ubuntu camp in mass to either 7 or linux mint.,
ubuntu need to go away from being the number one distro. unity is killing linux when a new user sees that crap they just come to irc asking how to rip it out. gnome 2 was becoming the standard in the linux desktop and what does the gnome team do trash the entire thing because they wanna change shit for the hell of it. the issue is coders are not making ui anymore stupid shits who cares abought omg make it all render in gl and fancy useless 3d do.
the problem is even when people tell the ubuntu devs that nobody likes unity everyone is leaving please drop it and forke gnome 2 they respond well we like it so to bad.
i have to agree. my roommate has a Samsung galaxy tab and wile the tab is a awesome piece of hardware the app-store is loaded with utter garbage ware and viruses. the only thing android had going was flash and not only was it a unstable crash a fuckton mess its also being pulled after android 4.0. people wine apple has to approve apps well go to the andoride market get infected or shuffle threw tons and tons of shit before finding any decent app and you will praise that fact. yes apple has some shit ware but they have been pulling alot of it as late not even close to the level of the andoride garbage dump.
eve also has a very small number of subscribers that has fallen off big time due to the fact they did add a stupid cash shop. it used to be around 300k of very loyal subs and they are used to being a small game. but now ccp has been failing at making 2 other games and spent most of there money on failed projects. hench the stupid attempt at a money grab and a huge falloff of subcribers in protest me being one of them i will never pay for eve with a cash-shop just like i wont pay for wow. you eyther f2p witha shop or your not. wow might get away with it and ccp is to small care but most games its pretty much f2p or death. and yes rift is on the list of going f2p soon.
with every mmo switching expect wow to f2p or shutting down due to lack of players lego is suffering from this. even when they announced there f2p version it wasent real f2p more like a unlimited trial most of the game and feature where locked off to subscribers only. and really i think maybe late 2012 we will hear of wow going free because even its steam is starting to run out.it just pay per month for a game is a failed tactic in this new trend of gaming and mmos.
would say legacy systems but Ubuntu has not been friendly for those systems for some time. theirs many other reason i no longer use Ubuntu. unity slow ass builds and bugs are some of them. rolling arch is more stable then a released ubuntu.
hears a trick the wallmart hear pulled. when mijer moved in and was hiring in mass they made a deal that they would not hire any former walmart employees for at least 6 months,
lets see the mijer pays more the office depo pays more so does kroger save a lot and the list goes on hell even mcdonalds does. yes there is a few stores out there i have herd of them that are acully decent but what im posting is your standerd store. also dont forget ]walmart is one of the best brainwashing staff out there so if your frends are the type to buy there bs they will say there jobs awsome dispite it being shit, i had one in the store i used to work in to.
that's walmart bs your spreading there. they pay minimum wage unless your 3rd shift and that's only due to 3rd shift laws. there so called benefits cost more then most people make,32 hrs a week is full time.for a walmart employee its also like that to prevent certen rights a real full-time employee would have like vacation time.walmart prices are higher then most other stores these days look for yourself. and there is nothing efficient bought walmart its ran by as i said under-payed unhappy people by overpaid managers who couldn't run a gas station. a managers day at walmart is what can i yell at you about today they care less how good or bad a job is done they just need to bitch i think that's part of there contract. trust me anyone that has ever worked there will tell you the same thing.
yes they do. what a walmart does is undercut everyone when there new store opens to burn down the competition. its just like that ep of south-park but in real-life. when there done destroying jobs etc they jack there prices up and become the most expensive store to shop at. they will repeat this cycle if someone moves in and starts to undercut them to try and compete.also if you wanna see walmart ninja murder someone mention the word union when you got a job there you will disappear fast.

a Chevy volt can go 35-40 miles battery power alone. and does all those things listed

hears a trick the wallmart hear pulled. when mijer moved in and was hiring in mass they made a deal that they would not hire any former walmart employees for at least 6 months,
cute and i probably hold more degrees then you.
that's the one positive from my exp there was when i did quit i walked back into adult ed and got my degree. never again.
lets see the mijer pays more the office depo pays more so does kroger save a lot and the list goes on hell even mcdonalds does. yes there is a few stores out there i have herd of them that are acully decent but what im posting is your standerd store. also dont forget ]walmart is one of the best brainwashing staff out there so if your frends are the type to buy there bs they will say there jobs awsome dispite it being shit, i had one in the store i used to work in to.
