Because, the "reboot" will be NOTHING like the original.
It will all be politically correct, "social justice warrior" anti American, pro socialist views and
on and on and on.
NOPE, pass!
When you are "working from home", it is way to easy to be distracted by either the kids, pets, something on tv/radio/internet.
Most humans do not have the structure to put everything aside, and put in "a full eight hours".
Whereas, at an office, it is less likely that you will be distracted, and, in theory, able to be more productive.
It is outdated, and not needed. When this nation was more rural, with farming being a mainstay,
it MIGHT have made sense to "extend" the day, to allow farmers with kids in school, to get a little extra
work after school, but, in today's world, it's a PAIN IN THE ASS to deal with. Clocks that have to be moved
forward and backward (that don't automatically change), having small children that have to be up an hour
early in the spring to meet the bus/get to school and on and on and on.
The best reaction to daylight savings time, has to be attributed to an old Indian who said...only a white man
could think you could cut the bottom off of a blanket, sew it onto the top and make the blanket longer.
Leave the %#(^)@@! clocks alone. Either set them for DST, or leave them for regular time.
Yep, prior to around the end of WW1, NO ONE really gave two hoots to the middle east. Once oil was discovered,
the British, divided up areas of the middle east along what they wanted, not ancient trial boundaries. If the day
comes that alternative energy sources finally replace oil, everyone will just go back to not giving two hoots to anyone
in the middle east!
to get my hopes up something comes of the 3,403 investigations of the Clinton crime family.
I know her "justice" isn't in this world, but after she is dead. ETERNITY is a long time to
burn in hell.
in DC? Run for political office. But...but...but...their salary is less than $200k per year? How can they get rich
if they have to maintain a residence in DC, plus one in their home state?
LOL, their "salary" is CHUMP CHANGE compared to the money thrown at them via the lobbyist on K street.
One you climb the political ladder and make it to "the big show" is where the REAL money comes into play.
Disgusting! All lobbying should be banned, and, anyone caught lobbying, or paying someone, should be
publicly executed.
If you can't light up a tobacco product, you shouldn't be able to "puff away" a fake cigarette.
I can't wait until someone legalizes marijuana and some doper wants to "blaze up" in a
bar/restaurant, and is told NO.
Phones. Typically, they have a glitch here or there.
I always wait, and buy the LAST of "this years" model. Bugs are gone, software is usually as up to date
as it will be (android outside google phones). The best part, usually a LOT LESS cost.
The ONLY ads that would be REGULATED, would be those in opposition to the currently elected group.
It's a "good ole boys" club, and, they PROTECT each other and don't want ANY outsiders to come in
and muck it up.
I'm that good, I don't worry about it. I'll retire at 67, and come back in 2-3 times a week to continue
working. I'm a problem solver and know how to think OUTSIDE the box.
I'm sure the U.S. government knows how to track via "smart" watches. Hell, people give up their rights to privacy all the
time, since the advent of smartphones and beyond.
MIGHT have something to say about that.
ANYTHING that disrupts their business, they will fight, obviously.
Maybe if they DROPPED their data rates, it wouldn't be so bad.
May not be the best idea, but at least it is SOMETHING outside of the box!
Every smartphone since 2007, has been nothing more than a rectangular slab
of metal, plastic & glass. It's a novel idea, but, being tied to at&t "only" means it
WON'T be promoted by at&t, and, it will be stuck in the corner, in the shadows, of
most at&t stores. Heck, walk into any at&t store and you think you had walked into
an Apple/Samsung store.
I remember in 2010 when I read about the Dell Streak 5 (at the time all smartphones
had 3.5" screens) was announced with a "MASSIVE" FIVE INCH screen. I bought
one direct from Dell, came with an at&t logo. Great phone, loved it. But, if you went
into an at&t store, you never saw one, they had no idea what it was. At&t didn't
promote it and Dell didn't promote it.
Same will happen probably with this phone. Interesting idea, but tying it to at&t, will
mean unless you know about it, no one will know about it.
The "true" folding phones, I don't see coming for a few years yet.
Of man made global warming...
Man caused global warming (climate change) is NOT REAL. It's a made up term used by morons, trying to bilk wealthy nations out of money, in a form of redistribution. You really want to know what screws up our weather? Go look up the term Maunder Minimum, Dalton Minimum, Modern Maximum (which just ended).
The SUNSPOT CYCLE is what impacts weather on Earth, more than man could ever dream of (short of an all out global nuclear war). One good belch from a volcano has more impact on our weather than "man".
The modern maximum, with cycle 23 just ended within the past year, but the trend in sunspots has been down, WAY down. There have been many times this past winter & spring, that the Earth facing solar disk has been completely BLANK. NOT ONE sunspot. Sunspots are disturbances on the surface of the sun, magnetic ripples. When one of those lets go a coronal mass ejection (CME), and it is streaming to the Earth, it strikes our magnetic field, and can change weather patterns.
There is evidence now from some, stating the positions of Venus & Uranus can also change the suns relationship with regard to spots.
In the 1700's, (the Maunder minimum) winters were so cold, the Thames in London, and the Potomac in Maryland FROZE SOLID. We had the modern maximum in the period where people like Algore came up with the idea of "man made global warming". Now, in the past couple of years, after cycle 23, the trend has been for cooler overall temperatures.
But, since most people under the age of 30, have been indoctrinated from birth to "save the polar bears" bla bla bla, they will not look at the hard science of what really impacts this little blue ball in space.
Boy it’s been fun cruising the liberal blogs watching their collective heads EXPLODE. This man made global warming nonsense needs to be put to rest.
THE SUN is what changes our climate. Man couldn’t change it, short of an all out nuclear war, if it wanted to. One belch from a volcano screws up the weather more than man can do.
Why don’t you guys start researching the solar sunspot cycles over the last 400 years and then lay the graphic temperatures on top and you will see they are pretty much the same. Cycle 23, just ended, and with it, ended what REAL scientist call the modern maximum (1950's through early 2000's). The trend in the last 9 years has been for less spots on the sun, which results in less geomagnetic disturbances. Those disturbances, in the form of coronal mass ejections (CME’s) hit the magnetic bubble around our planet, and screw with the weather...not man. In all likelyhood we are heading toward a COOLING trend, not a warming trend, but, you’ve been indoctrinated since birth into believing it is all man’s fault, and, in particular, “evil rich white slaveholder men from the imperialist United States”.
Microsoft is no different...
IBM, XEROX, the U.S. Automobile corporations, Apple...
When you get "big", sometimes the "top" has NO IDEA what the "bottom" is going through.
The top will say we want X, and the bottom will say how the hell are we suppose to do that?
And the top "suits" just say do it.

"EV's" have a larger environmental footprint, than gas powered vehicles.
I'd clean up their act! They can be EASILY replaced

It's a mental illness. Always has been, always will be, regardless to the political correctness garbage.
What about the 10 times the amount of so called emissions, pollution required to BUILD them, not to mention the toxic disposal of the battery?

Outside the "tech" blogsphere, no one knows who this guy or his company is. Price it at 350-400 dollars, they MIGHT sell a few more.

VLC....but I'm sure your typical "mom & pop" that use a computer how it comes out of the box might, but if they are on 10, did it even come with WMP?
Microsoft is no different... IBM, XEROX, the U.S. Automobile corporations, Apple... When you get "big", sometimes the "top" has NO IDEA what the "bottom" is going through. The top will say we want X, and the bottom will say how the hell are we suppose to do that? And the top "suits" just say do it.
Back in the 386-486 days Now, except for benchmark & high end 3D games, does it really matter?
