You can get a Firefox phone right now, available for use in Germany, Russia, United Kingdom, and the United States. It is $99, and comes with a 4-inch screen, dual core 1.2Ghz and 512MB RAM. It is the ZTE Open C, available on eBay. Just search for Firefox OS, and you'll find it.They link to it from the Firefox OS site. http://item.ebay.com/291125433...
The problem is that we even have a concept of "Web" programming. There should be no such thing. It reminds me of the early 90's when we had Multimedia programs - those that could access a CD-ROM. It doesn't matter where you are running, where you data is, and where your output is. We need ALL of our programming languages to be updated to realize this. We don't write to files, we write to streams. Data is always just written to a store. The fact that the local store synchronizes with the server store is a library issue. We should be able to create "Web" programs with the same tools that we write all programs.
If our bodies are garbage, so are the bodies of all Eukaryote organisms. I guess the only Eukaryote whose body is not garbage is Superman, but he is an illegal alien from Krypton so he doesn't matter.
Actually his papers did finally come through. However, he is still on the no-fly list.
Scrum Master: OK, let's go around the room and do our stand-up for they day. We've got a week or two to straighten this thing out.
Mary: Ummm...I'm trying not to kill myself today, hopefully no one will notice if I spend the day in the rest room.
Tan: Well, I started my review of the backround 3rd-party insurance-module interfaces. So far, mock objects are in place. I'm thinking we should implement something?
Bob: I'm working on name-tags, the holiday schedule, and the Submit button.
Assan: I'm new.
Scrum Master: OK, does anyone have any blocking issues for today?
Bob: Uh, I'm not (air-quotes) technically a programmer, but I can make some killer PowerPoints.
Tan: Right now, I just have these fan-fold printouts of the code. Also, I've never done COBOL before. Oh, and can I get a computer?

Being that your computer is down, you are unable to research what you should get.
If only there was some way to search the internet without a desktop PC. Well, maybe some day!
I always wondered what happens if you press the "Easy Button".
I bet it's full of mismatched socks.
I would leave off the call feature - big waste of time for me.
In Soviet Crimea, elections vote for you!
I'll have another Bloody Mary.

It is TIME to get married, guys.

Aye, aye, sir!
Early 2012, it was requested that MATE be included in said repositories, and almost 2 years later, it appears we're almost there.

Same group, so they mostly get overtime pay.
Gotta answer: 'Cause.
I give it an 8, Dick. It has a nice superposition, but I can't dance to it.
Actually, it is a result of Obamacare.

Duh!!
Who tapped Merkel?
It's always good to have a neutral party weigh in on the issue. Now we know.
He has kind eyes.
IT turned out to be some kind of huge spider running around underground. Not the best ending.
