Once it has all that, there's virtually no cost to adding the other stuff.
What I'd like to see is a basic phone with large buttons, a small basic screen for call display and a minimal phone book. Make it built like a tank, along the lines of the old AT&T rental phones.
Only true if there are only two parties. I'll let you do the math on what percentage is needed if there are three relatively equal parties, and it's first past the post. I'll give you a hint. It starts with a 3.
I first got on the Internet using an old 286 with a 2400 baud modem, using the freenet in Ottawa. For bonus geek points, at the time I was the head doorman at a bar called Zaphod Beeblebrox.
Seeing as how the Democrats are Centre-Right, and most liberals are pretty centrist compared to politics in the rest of the world, I'd say, yes, they would be centrist.
Could I pass it? Yes, assuming that I had an iphone with me. There's nothing there that requires anything more than either access to a web browser or rote memorization. I'm pretty sure that current testing requires more application of intelligence; taking knowledge and applying it than this test of the ability to memorize data and regurgitate it.
Waving red in front of the bull. Always a good idea. Pity that it will be MicroSofts' customers, not MS that will suffer when the hackers, script kiddies and miscellaneous ne'er-do-wells inevitably trash the security for their latest offering.
Yes. I would be equally outraged. On the flip side, I'm not asking for government interference in their business model, just stating that if a fucking book store is going to get into the censoring business, then they don't want *MY* money.
I would be just as upset by that as I was by what they did. I'd also be upset if they allowed people to selectively exclude jews, blacks or women. Enabling bigotry isn't something I will support.
Here in Canada we have precisely one decision to make, which Candidate to vote for in our riding.
Americans vote for President, Senators, Representatives, Governor, Sheriff, etc., not to mention the various referendums on various propositions, and it's different for each county. do a web search for 'sample ballot 2008' and see for yourself.
It's an order of magnitude more difficult to tabulate than our system.
If you put poisoned candy on your front porch, you don't get charged with negligent homicide unless a kid eats it. The actions of others do affect your liability.

Yup. When farmers and hens both vote against the fox guarding the henhouse, they have very different reasons.
Gladly. Please point me to a cell phone that is made 100% in the first world and I will immediately buy it.

A phone that is ONLY a phone.

Good Luck in whatever you go on to. As a non-techie, this site has been educational and fun since I first ran across it.
Cheers!

If this doesn't get some 'funny' moderations, then the rating system is even more broken than I feared.
Now you're just trolling for spelling nazis...
Get off my lawn.

I had a first post once, but it was a mistake. I meant to reply to the previous story...
Three words.... "Contemporary Christian music"
I thought it was funny.
For the humour and history impaired, a Ford Pinto is likely to burst into flames when rear ended.
Which kind of makes the flamebait moderation meta-funny.
am i missing any (competitive, comprehensive) engines?
Don't forget Lynx and Amaya.

Their anti gun policy made me stop using ebay years ago....
Stanislaw Lem - The Cyberiad
John Brunner - Shockwave Rider
They aren't the top of the list, but they should be mentioned.
What happened is they lost their best people to Handspring. From that point on it's been all downhill.
