Even if they have IE on the system for whatever reason it does not mean they use it as their main browser.
Actually a *lot* of businesses have been changing to web services like Google Apps. Not even small ones or bleeding edge ones. I mean things like insurance companies.
Basically you are saying there is no benefit to taking supplements if you have an adequate diet. While this is true most people do *not* have an adequate diet for whatever reason and deficiencies do occur. Some medical conditions also require you to have a higher vitamin intake requirement than usual since the body can't process vitamins as efficiently.
Most people I know of, including myself, frequently suffer from deficiencies in nutrients. I frequently need to take magnesium supplements. Otherwise I get muscular cramps. I may eat bananas or nuts but bananas cause me constipation and nuts make me fat. I don't exercise that much to burn away the calories in things like nuts. So I either take the supplements, which is trivial, or get obese. Which is not good either. I also notice I often have folic acid deficiencies. I can reduce those by eating more bread. Since that is often fortified with it by strength of law in most countries. But too much bread makes me obese as well. Diabetics can't even eat that much carbohydrates to begin with. So its like I said. It depends. I found myself trying all sorts of strange foods at one point. I changed what I ate to improve the nutritional balance more than once. But some of the foods are just too damned expensive, locally unavailable, don't last very long, or taste like shit. Examples include things like Marmite or Avocado. So I would rather just take a supplement. But one thing I do agree is that most multivitamins are a waste of time. You need something you take it. Usually the first sign of deficiency is getting a food craving. However the food you feel like eating at that moment may *not* be the most appropriate for other health or whatever reasons to eat. So you have to figure out *why* are you wanting to eat that and which other thing you can eat to replace it. Which can be frigging hard.
Yes I have read about studies about Vitamin E causing cancer years ago. Saying the same applies to other antioxidants vitamins though is premature and makes little sense. From my own personal experiences with Vitamin E supplements I can tell you I did not like taking it. It makes me shed skin way too fast for my taste.
Also ignored is the fact that quinoa was widely available in those places as a replacement. It is not as nutritious but would work in case of dire need.
He's a moron then. The fact is the Incas had a vast empire. The largest and most technologically advanced in the Americas. The Aztecs had maize and they did not fare better.
In the Pacific breadfruit is so easy to plant and harvest people spent most of their days doing something else. Sometimes nothing. In a lot of the early expeditions to the Pacific it was common for sailors to jump ship and go native because they were sick of the harsh conditions at sea and at home.
The problem is Pacific islands, where breadfruit grows, typically are not resource rich in ore to begin with. While Polynesians did have several advanced designs for sea faring vessels, e.g. trimaran design, they did not bother with much else.
That is the 'gatherer' part of hunter gatherer. Humans can digest a lot of starchy foods even without cooking. Pine nuts, walnuts, etc. As for tubers, we can eat carrots even raw. While carrots have been selectively bred, the are precursors to carrots native which can be eaten raw too.
While it is true some foods are dangerous without cooking this is not specific and doesn't apply to all starches.
Just because slavery used to be legal at one point in our history, it did not make it less atrocious. This is much the same. Dumbass laws that are restraints on technological progress.
Found scientifically accurate by the University of Pennsylvania. Where he teaches and which receives the income from the funding to his climate research. Which by coincidence or not is the same university involved in the Jerry Sandusky trial. That's the joke BTW.
Bollocks. You can still use your patents against other products. The GPLv3 only immunizes a program they themselves use and distribute from being torpedoed by patents. It is similar to the IBM EPL OSS license in that regard. Even Apache license has protection against patents now.

about:mozilla.
The explanation is not something you can implement since it does not define a clear spec. It is vague and omits info.
The scripting language is called Python. It can even be run from inside OO.

Neither does MS Office. It is not 100% backwards compatible with itself.
So instead of one application suite you get two. So what? What do you want man? Is it a CMS? Get Alfresco or whatever.

Wheat is particularly hard to eat because it needs milling and cooking. There are dangerous components in it raw.

Incas had potatoes. It does not need to be a grain. But starchy foods are usually more effective in useful energy generated per acre.
In the Pacific breadfruit was the staple. However it was so easy to grow there that there wasn't a lot of work 'farming' anything.
Defense. They border China and Pakistan. So if China has stealth they want stealth too.
The talk was about PC manufacturing.

Flextronics is an US corporation != Apple.
Yes. More natural gas burned on a winter. Who could tell. Maybe its a FAIL swan event.
HP made PCs long before that. Are you nuts? They have been around longer than Apple.
Yeah coz HP is OLDER.
Apple doesn't own fabs. The manufacturing is done by Chinese/Taiwanese assemblers. Might as well get a PC from Asus, Lenovo, or whatever.

Google does none of that.
