Whatever Microsoft renames or redesigns the phone, it's never done well.
Windows Phone has a well-integrated, consistent, good-looking interface. Android and iOs have a lot of random icons on a page, ala 1995. I don't think that you know what you're talking about.
This guy is an idiot. The platform is mature, and arguably, the best out there. Everybody I know who uses one likes theirs, as well. MS isn't going to walk away from this because of current fashion trends.
Sounds like that school you work for is managed pretty badly. A pile of perfectly usable assets sitting in a box? You can't figure out a Windows Phone? What school is this??
Sprint's a stupid company. I was with them for years, and when my last Windows Phone broke, they had *zero* available, and didn't plan on having any available for months. There must be some real idiots steering that ship.
Same thing here. Like it. Gonna keep using it. MS is still supporting it, and Windows 10 gets rolled out on them in the next few months. Best phone platform, in my opinion.
And I agree, MS isn't going to drop it any time soon. It's there and works well, and phones are just fashion for most people. Fashion shifts, and if people get tired of the 1990's era Android and ios interfaces, MS's is already there.
These same terrorists pointed guns at federal officials in the whole Clive Bundy incident, and are still free (and alive) more than a year later. Non-white people would be dead or beaten or arrested in seconds. That's my point.
Broadband needs to be a utility and regulated as such. I've got my fingers crossed that Obama can get that done before he leaves office. Many people, like myself, live in places where the Internet options are 1. Shit 2. Shittier. Internet is too important today to be left to "The Invisible Hand". The barriers to entry are simply too high for there to be any kind of competition, so the government really needs to take care of it.
Well, COMPETITION, as you so simply put it, would make sense in other industries, but not one that requires right-of-way access across every single piece of public and private property.
Utilities are best left to governments, regardless of what the moronic Ayn Rand said.
Our business is suffering because of lack of decent Internet connectivity in our area. These fucking corrupt lying pieces of shit need to quit calling themselves "pro-small business" because that's an outright lie. Has been for as long as I could remember, in fact.
when the State steals money from the industrious and innovative
I read Atlas Shrugged, and I agreed with it when I was a teenager. When I grew up, I realized how silly it all was. As far as I know, no other writer calls taxes, "stealing", because they're not. It's simplistic, lazy thinking, and has been refuted countless times by countless people. I have no interest in re-hashing the same obvious arguments as to how taxes are not "stealing".
No matter what your profession is, you shouldn't ever try to cut corners on your every day tools. That's never a good idea. You should instead INVEST in the best tools that you need to do your job.
Science doesn't have "views". Science is about, to the best of our knowledge, determining what is or isn't true about our world. Either the sky is blue, or it isn't. The color of the sky doesn't change based on what people think it is.
You CAN choose. In the US, you can pay to have your kid educated anyway you'd like. If you want a taxpayer funded education, though, they're going to teach your kid actual science. There are plenty of homeschoolers and private schools that teach kids all sorts of nonsense. It's not illegal, but it shouldn't be funded by taxpayers, either.
Respect is one thing, education is another. I can respect mentally ill people, but I'm not going to allow them to teach my children that up is down and down is up.
Sure! Then the rich Bible thumpers can teach their kids Jeebus, the rich non-Bible thumpers can teach their kids that poor people are unworthy, and the poor people won't have schools. Great idea!
No, nutjob, that isn't why. It's because "The left wing" doesn't think that people should get fucked over. "The right wing" exists to fuck people over. You've been listening to Glenn Beck too much.

Oh, please. Not even close to the same thing. A group of black people who took over a federal building with guns would have been killed instantly.
BLM is a movement of people who are angry at ongoing, indemic, systemic racism.
These terrorist assholes are attempting to overthrow the government and kill people because they want a bigger government handout.

And so is pointing guns at law enforcement. But hey, they're white!
Is there ANY place in America where converting anything into a monopoly that is tightly-tied to government has made the customers happy?
I'm pretty happy with my power and natural gas, actually. The roads aren't bad, either. The USPS is pretty good, too. You sound like a real nutter.

Put down the Ayn Rand, and slowly back away.

Science has nothing to do with opinion, whether it be minority or majority. Either our schools teach science, or they don't.
Sure! Government funded ISIS madrassas would be a great idea!
You're obviously afraid of something, else you wouldn't need to walk around with a gun all the time.
You haven't gotten laid in a very, very long time, have you?

Tough guy with a gun. *Yawn*. What are all you gun nuts so afraid of?
