I lived about 8 miles away from Reading in the 80s, and experienced no such issues. We knew when it would pass over, and it wasn't a big deal at all. We got to look out and see a fuckin' Concorde screaming past, after all.
I used to live under its flightpath from Heathrow, and they were as loud as any other plane, or so it seemed. They sounded distinctive, but not overly different to other planes.
It's a *lot* cleaner to have the burning done at a centralised location where pollution can be more easily dealt with, than simply spewing it out everywhere because the alternatives are too hard, for you, to figure out.
That's great for you, but some people out there want content that's only available using HDCP, and they're willing to use HDCP to get it. Lots of people's computers are not there for some ideological purpose, merely to do what their owner wants. HDCP won't interfere with you, but it will help others get the content they want.
At least try to understand what marketing consists of before trying to fire pot-shots at Nokia. They're selling the brand, with the aim of getting people to keep buying Nokia phones at the end of each contract cycle. I know it's awesomely fun to have a go at shitty marketing and marketers (hell, I love it), but this is not such an occurrence.
Because it was conclusively determined to have been put in a microwave by specialist fire investigators, and not Samsung. Samsung just posted the findings of the independent report.
The new Apple batteries which are glued in to the machines can't be replaced, full-stop. When removed, they rupture. Surely the government should act responsibly, no?
Not narrow-minded? If the battery is glued in, you can't remove it for correct recycling without rupturing it, spilling its contents. How is realising that is a bad idea "narrow minded"?

One does not simply build one's own SST.
It could supercruise at Mach 2, so yeah, it was pretty badass. Towards the end of its service, the RAF didn't have any planes which could catch it.

Aaah, so a visit to France equals a comprehensive study of immigration across all of Europe and the crimes committed by said immigrants.
So yeah, I'll call you a racist fuck, as you are making inherently inaccurate generalisations based on race.
You racist fuck.
Wow. So many generalisations and such little evidence.
Score: 5, Racist Asshole.
What do the police in the UK have to do with the police in Paris? It's almost as if you're looking for a reason to be upset...
Behold! Chrisq feels the need to tell everyone just how much of a racist fuck he is. You are the problem, not the Muslims.
Why would you want to, when your reactions and awareness of the situation are worse than the computer's? Oh yeah, arrogance.
Gin slings are awesome.
FTFY.
XML? Cute.
There are already a shit-tonne of games on Android which are just fun.

Country clubs have more power than the Freemasons. Stop reading conspiracy bullshit.
Wow. You're digging for a problem.
Of course, but that was entirely not my point.
This is science, not a pissing contest. Where something is discovered is meaningless.
Wales has the same legal system as England, which is different to that in Scotland.
Making money from systematic copyright infringement is a criminal offence, in both the US and England.
Blame Google for your laziness? Eh?
