I've been using a Nexus 7 since this July, and this is the best tablet of the lot I've tried -- and that includes an Ipad, an Ipad2, the original Galaxy Tab, the 10" galaxy, the galaxy note, a toshiba AT570/36F, several book readers and a couple of hi-end "china tablets". The balance of price, hw specs, OS and apps quality is just right. Finally there is a tablet offering that is worth buying.
As long as the painter is in the market for art, where she commands a small share alongside a million other artists, there is no need to chain her with regulations and oversight. A true proponent of the laissez-faire approach would probably argue that there is not even need for that government rape of freedom of economic initiative known as "copyright".
Now, if you have a company that controls over 85% of the world market, is entrenched with all kinds of government regulations that prevent easy entrance in the market, and operates in conditions that allow it to play all kinds of price and quantity games on the competition, its supply chain, its dealers and customers, the situation is significantly different.
Of course, to understand the difference you need to learn some basic economics. Alas, bad science fiction is easier to master. But you compensate your lack of understanding with insults and CAPS LOCK very well;)
I have my own company, make innovative products with innovative process, and I sing the same tune. Monopoly is bad for everybody, except for the monopolist. It is bad for the economy, it is bad for the democratic political process, it is bad for capitalism.
There is a solid, peer-reviewed theoretical foundation behind the idea that monopolies should be regulated, backed by a mountain of empirical evidence. There is no case for unregulated monopoly regardless of the market it operates in.
The same way TEPCO controlled the third-party workers, who were told not to wear radiation badges -- via optical fiber from Tokyo, of course. As for versatile, yeah, humans are not only more versatile, they are also a lot cheaper. Why invest in capable robots at all?
Why not put a well-shielded controller instead and have the people control it remotely from a safe location? Well, it is Japan, the land of the weird ideas.
No, he isn't. He is one of the largest individual shareholders, but this is very different from "one of the biggest investors". I am not sure if they need much in terms of investment, they have enough cash to fund themselves, and I don't remember any news about Microsoft selling new shares or receiving other forms of funding from the past few years.
As far as I can infer from the summary, they are computing a hash of the readings of the compass sensor and pasting over them a Tasker task that switches bluetooth on and off. Patent-worthy? The part that computes the hash -- maybe, but it is hard to believe.
Why C? Let them learn it the right way from the start, get them a MIX emulator for them and give them the three volumes that collect dust on your top bookshelf.
No, they are not only simple PR tools, they live a life on their own and can effectively influence politics.
For example, St. R. Reagan introduced the fundamental Christian right into the US mainstream politics. This seemed like a good idea to win one election, but it has come to bite the US in the ass badly, as their influence and morality are now a much stronger factor that is shaping US policies.
In China, xenophobic rhetoric was seen as a useful tool to create outlet for the dissatisfaction from the system, but now that the government is having trouble controlling the "nationalist" feelings of the crowd, they aren't so happy about it.
Not everything that happens is as simple and linear as a bash script, although it does seem so at times if you look at it the slashdot user way: reading the simplified Wikipedia version and in retrospect.
You cannot get people out to fight your wars on this kind of agenda, buddy. If you could, there'd be no need for Tonkin incidents or hidden WMDs. You need a powerful ideology and extraordinary circumstances to rally a population to support a war.
Two things. First, you're over-exaggerating it a bit, it is unlikely that any drastic anti-freedom legislation will be passed in the west based on the wishes of Saudi Arabia in the next decade or two. Or more, if you freedom-lovers choose to lead instead of whine.
Second, there is only one country in the world that has, throughout its history, used its military power and political influence consistently to try to export its ideas of morality and law to the world, and it ain't no abode of Muslin desperation, it is the U-S-of-A.
Moreover, the US rationale for this was always the perception of the superior morality of the American way, not some logical, scientific argument. Why are you complaining when other countries notice what yours does, and try to do the same?
It shows up on the blind spot of your retina when you install three plugins, noscript, ghostery and adblock. I see hardly any facebook anymore. Makes it very easy to avoid other crap sites, too.
Both the joke and the hissy fits the left are throwing are pathetic. Lack of charisma and ability in our esteemed leaders make me cringe. I guess we get what we deserve, though.

More importantly, why don't I believe that halving what the phone radio uses will double battery life?

Let's say you don't understand economics at all.

Why does it have to be humanoid? I'm fine with any robot that can do the job.

That, I think, is a bit premature without an interface to Skynet and the Skynet itself. Also, I believe the correct term is "nural net".
Why not put a well-shielded controller instead and have the people control it remotely from a safe location? Well, it is Japan, the land of the weird ideas.
I'd be interested in this too, I sleep at the wheel a lot, being able to have half the brain awake would be a boost to my driving potence.
Don't get desperate, you're not so bad. You're probably not really retarded, just reading the wrong shit off the internets.
Steve Ballmer is one of the biggest investors.
No, he isn't. He is one of the largest individual shareholders, but this is very different from "one of the biggest investors".

You can't be serious comparing tribal conquests to the policies of nation state.

It is the dream of an elephant who went to see The Transformers the other night.
Green batteries. Work best with activists.
Aww, come on, we know this is just a lame excuse for HAARP 2.0. The global warming did not warm itself, you know.

So? How is that a problem of Assange again? Besides, just for reference, where is the fallout? Please cite one single case, thanks.
whar goes the hyphen?
