I would name Nokia as the company that replaced Kodak, because while the iPhone may be the most popular camera phone now, it came fairly late to the game and replaced other camera phones from companies like Nokia, not Kodak cameras or other cameras with Kodak film.
Are they using Apple ones? Most people use Windows CE for that sort of thing. Although that is discontinued now, so they do need to look for something else.
Oyster is mostly online. There is an offline backup, because if you use it on a bus, the bus may not have a network signal at your bus stop. If you do manage to hack an Oyster card, it will work for one day, but when the reconciliation is done overnight, your card will be blacklisted and it won't work the following day, even in offline mode.
Android is not GNU/Linux, it has the Android operating system running on the Linux kernel rather than the GNU operating system running on the Linux kernel.
For the bitcoins deposited by customers on the Silk Road website, they have access to the coins inside, and they transferred them to their own wallet. For DPR's personal stash of bitcoins, they only have access to the wallet.
I agree that it is not illegal to possess bitcoin, however I am less certain that it is legal to sell them.
For example, it is perfectly legal to possess a 401(k) pension plan, but unless you are appropriately authorised by the relevant authorities, you can't sell them. I suspect it is the same for bitcoins, except that it probably isn't possible to get the appropriate authorisations to sell them at the moment.
Yes they qualify as assets. They're certainly not liabilities.
When the Feds bust a drug dealer, they might find an expensive car, and a large stash of heroin. They are certainly OK to auction the car, and certainly not OK to auction the heroin. Bitcoins falls in the middle somewhere. We don't know yet whether it is OK to auction them off.
Seized assets that are legal to hold are auctioned off, things like cars and houses. Seized assets that are not legal to hold, such as inventory of drugs, are destroyed.
An app can be quicker because you only have to download the data, not the UI at run-time. That is especially useful for things like public transport apps where you might not have a particularly fast connection when you are using them.
Yes, anyone can use them, but realistically, the only people other than employees and contractors who would want to use them are people visiting to attend a job interview.
In England, Microsoft and Oracle have a similar free bus service for their employees - http://www.tvptravel.co.uk/tvp-buses , http://www.somph.co.uk/tvp.html It too uses public bus stops, and the local council helpfully puts the route and the stops on their bus maps - http://www.reading-buses.co.uk/maps/ and lists the coach hire company that operates these services as one of the local public transport operators.
If anyone here were to protest against this bus service, people would think they were mad.
No, this is the City of London that is a country-within-a-country in the the UK, and England's smallest city.

In the UK, both companies sell their product as Budweiser.
Sky operate in other EU countries as well. I know they operate in Ireland, Italy and Germany.
I've heard rumours that Alaska can get quite cold.
You can get free updates for Windows XP from http://update.microsoft.com/
But nobody connects directly to the internet like that these days anyway.

And what about your clothes? They could be made of cotton, wool, silk, leather or rubber; all agricultural products.

It is a feast we have in our local church on the last Sunday in September to thank God for the harvest.

The idea is that that criminals will see the cameras and decide not to commit the crime because there is too much risk of being caught.
What happens in the UK is that hooded tops, baseball caps and scarves became a very popular fashion choice, so that the cameras can't see who you are.
In the UK, they compete with Lovefilm (Amazon), Blinkbox (Tesco, big supermarket chain) and Sky (Satellite TV company owned by Rupert Murdoch).
Same as what they do with the money they get from selling the car.
If you don't have the appropriate licence, then yes, being a notary public is illegal.

Half of all muggings apparently. Probably not any higher than other places though.
They blacklist the SIM if your account is overdue, or is a pre-pay account with no credit on it.
