    unretrained capitalism also fails just as bad, the OMGSOCIALISM of the US, UK, and EU are what minimize suffering and provide opportunities for class mobility.

    as tax rates have decreased and wealth has concentrated in the US class mobility has fallen and the rich have gained more and more undue influence over govornment policies, and thanks to traitors on the SCOTUS giving away even more to Corporations in Citizens United and other cases, it gets less and less likely that the situation will be fixed from within the political system in the US.

    USB is a security sieve.

    the USB device identifies itself the the OS loads the driver, so if your OS comes with any driver for any USB device which is vulnerable to exploit by being passed invalid commands through USB any USB device can identify itself as the hardware that would cause that driver to load then pass it bad data. the only way to stop this is to have all USB device drivers except for approved hardware be removed from every system

    IIRC from the development docs an app can use "auto" for it's network connectivity, many do not because people want to tell their app what connection to use, for example I like to use pandora on my phone, but i sure don't want to run it for an hour or two over 3G

    nationalize energy production because there is no real competition there anyways, it has no business being "free market"

    food would come from local farms and more exotic foods would be driven in by trucking companies, just as they are now. clothing would be made and sold just as usual, just with fewer third world slave children and prices would be a bit higher and so would quality

    oh it certainly has occured to me, it's the best explaination for the popularity of Microsoft windows, Google android, and Apple IOS, also all forms of cloud computing.

    if you want not android and not ios there is already blackberry, which supports actual background multitasking at least back to OS 5 and i think OS4 did too, also RIM does not trust itself, if you install a RIM first party app from blackberry app world (RIM marketplace) it asks the same permissions requests that any other app does.

    with a blackberry RIM recognizes that it is MY phone not theirs, i can install apps from the internet via blackberry browser and i can install apps via the BB desktop manager from my PC
