That's why we replaced him with two CEOs! As an SAP employee, I can't say Leo did everything right, but it's hard to blame everything on him since he was CEO during the worst recession in recent times.
Those people might want to reconsider spending any more of their lives with their SO instead of relying on a technical limitation to protect their privacy from crazies.
Windows Mobile was the best smartphone OS ever. Really. Yeah it was kind of clunky, but it worked and did almost everything imaginable. Developing for it was also awesome, at least compared to the other systems. Windows Phone 7 is like the opposite of that, all smooth and shiny, but sucks. Even the name is somehow more retarded.
I've never seen a Zune either, but that's because they aren't sold in Europe. The reviews however all point to them being at least as good as the ipod, at least objectively speaking. Even the Zune software is better than itunes, though to be fair being punched in the balls is also better than itunes.
Microsoft also provides Ford (and I think now others as well) with the SYNC system which by all accounts works great and is a big selling point for Fords. Remember slashdot freaking out over having MS software in their cars? Yeah.
Their Surface is pretty cool and doesn't have much competition, though I'm not sure what's going on with it at the moment. The Xbox360, on the other hand, does have well established competition, and does pretty well against that. What's the worst argument against the xbox, that its failure rate is a few percentage point higher than average?
The government is already stealing from you in many other ways, anything a gps tracker can siphon is going to be just a drop in the ocean. And you aren't going able to do jack shit about it.
It's "zero-g" that's the common, but misleading term, because that force is still being applied to them (as you say, just to a somewhat smaller degree). Weightlessness can be correct, depending on how pedantic you are. My good friend prof. Walter Lewin of MIT agrees that in the absence of any other forces besides the gravitational acceleration, the object is weightless. Consider this - we're all in a free fall relative to the Sun, but you won't hear your girlfriend (ok, or mom) say that their weight is 2 tons, except that they are in free fall.
>You don't get the death penalty for burning a book or erasing a tape.
Maybe not, but you do get the death penalty for not doing anything:
The report found that SBI agents withheld exculpatory evidence or distorted evidence in more than 230 cases over a 16-year period. Three of those cases resulted in execution. There was widespread lying, corruption, and pressure from prosecutors and other law enforcement officials on crime lab analysts to produce results that would help secure convictions.
But, Neil is a close personal friend of my family, Ive met him personally (though briefly) once, and he has some very interesting and detailed stories about his experience. I cant imagine that he would make up that sort of detail, and continue to propigate such a lie with even with his close friends for so long.
Alien abductees have interesting and detailed stories that they keep telling everyone for years as well, so they must be as credible as this Neil guy!
If her brother didn't learn somehow of her pregnancy long before the birth, then I doubt their relationship was anywhere near close enough for anyone to care.
They're going to make a version for Europe apparently, but it will be more expensive to account for all the safety & emissions changes. I think it's pretty pointless in the developed world, since you can either get some new cheap shitbox for slightly more money, which will nevertheless be better, or a way nicer 5-10 year old car that will be much better in every way for the same or smaller amount of money.
If it was like $1000-2000 then I'd just buy it to race in the mall parking lot, or make an RC car or something, but for $6000 it's a bit too expensive for a toy or even as a second city car.
Meh, just don't use paypal. Also, how the hell did he manage to collect EUR600k for an alpha version of an indie game in 17 days? Maybe there is some funny business going on there after all.
What makes you think this is blatant risk to the lives of their customers? Is there any evidence how useful co-pilots really are for the safety? On the other hand, I recall reading at least one story here on slashdot where the copilot distracted the pilot by bullshiting about his laptop or something, causing them to significantly overshoot the target airport.

>Granted, there was very little cartography of the island available... but to resort to tourist maps?
You go to war with the maps that you have, not the maps that you might want to have!
Or Nikolai Yezhov.

Studies have also shown a clear correlation between making wild claims and citing sources. The correlation is negative.

Okay poop is coming out

Yeah, that's essentially what the manned space program is.
No shit, just like not all American films have exaggerated color and contrast.

Shit, there's no need for a crew even - a bot/rover could have placed the reflector just as well.

Maybe NGOs will start using free software when you stop using apostrophes to create plurals.
Are you saying you have first-hand experience with smuggling tablets out of India? And you got caught?

That shit's amazing, it even has that small bar at the top that emulates IE's security popup.
To be fair to Assange, what was shown in the video was murder...
Not only that, but your plane crash deaths cover the whole world, or billions of people, vs. Chicago.
Further on the topic of police abuse, there's a great running thread on Somethingawful, "Cops on the Beat 19: Let The Boys Be Boys, SLAM!". Guess what the "19" is for.

Dude, I'm sawing your mother right now!
Yeah, everyone knows that Next Media Animation is correctly abbreviated as NAMBLA.
