Or, perhaps they do use radio transmission, but lack the technology to decode our radio transmissions. Or they don't use the frequencies we use. Or they can decode our radio transmissions, but they look at them and think "OMFG. These people are NUTS. Let's not try contacting them. Ever."
Now I'm curious. Just how do would you use my logic to get to that conclusion? Please reply.
The AC is speaking more about Apple's iPhone more than Google's Android here. You're right -- the logic doesn't fly when you read the article and understand that the kill switch only affects Android Marketplace apps, not apps downloaded directly from vendors. But the logic is perfectly sound when applied to Apple's iPhone, and that's the point he's absolutely right about.
Why was the above post modded down? Some Apple fanboi had his feelings hurt or something?
C'mon. somanyrobots is exactly right. Lying and covering your tracks to obtain warranty coverage constitutes a fraudulent breach of contract. It's a fact. Like it or not.
Myself? Oh, you mean my made-up character. let's see. I'm a 15-year-old bi-sexual girl with a 38DD, I remember that, but um, what um, I can't find the picture, and I can't remember what activities I was supposed to be into, other than group orgies... sh***....
But isn't child porn on their list of immoral acts?
Yes. It fails the critical thinking test entirely. Islamic fundamentalists don't even like regular adult nudity -- possession of child pornography would likely get you executed in Islamist countries.
It's like saying that Islamic Terrorists are hiding their hidden messages in pictures of Allah.
No way. Everyone knows the terrorists are really hiding their secret messages in music and movies on BitTorrent sites and in easter eggs contained in cracked software. And the source code for the Linux kernel is also one big long top secret terrorist messages. And if you listen carefully to what Steve Jobs has to say, every third word is accented in a funny way so as to convey a hidden terrorist message.
Regarding Windows Vista, he said Microsoft was prepared for people to skip it altogether, and that Microsoft would be "ready" when it was time to deploy Windows 7.
If you ask me, Windows 7 looks a lot like a response to Linux on the desktop. Now's the time for OSS developers to step up to plate and deliver a solution that will make Windows 7 look like child's play. I'm game.
The courts can seize wages, property, etc., in most states. Unfortunately, unless you have a good lawyer and lots of money, you're up a creek if without a paddle.
What kind of country are you retards running when there is no injury and pursuant to your own Copyright Act this was all non-commercial non-profit non-profit private?
Sorry. We don't run the government anymore. The government sold out to corporate interests years ago. There seems to be nothing we can do short of pulling out all our guns and start shooting the ultrarich fat-cat bastards.
Actually the quran is quite specific in which souls need to have a cruel, agonizing and bloody death. It also clearly specifies how they're to be administered : every muslim is to "fight, kill and die" as a slave of allah until there isn't a single non-muslim left.
Because CDs can only hold what -- 700 MB? Compilers take space. The purpose of the LiveCD is attract new users into the fold, not to preach to the choir.
Yeah, but do you know how many MILLIONS OF DOLLARS each failure costs? That's the difference between NASA and a private company. NASA doesn't have show a profit to keep their investors from pulling out.
Well, I hear Vista includes drivers for the aforementioned inflatable sheep. But if you weigh over 300 lbs, they crash after the sheep downloads child pornography and then proceeds to rape you.
Got any data to back this up? Usually I find people who say such things have a distorted view of reality. Not saying that you do, but I hear people say that and almost none of them have real evidence with which to backup their statement.
Muslims typically don't believe in the immanence of God. Allah's transcendence is absolute, unlike in mainstream Christianity and Judaism where God is both transcendent (transcends the world around us) and immanent (is present in the world around us).
Seriously, I've run Suse 10 on an IFL engine. It's so slow, I don't know how anyone could run anything serious on it.
That's why their called 'z's zzzzz zzzzz zzzzz....
No, seriously, mainframes aren't about performance. They're about stability. Think about 16-core server with 40 GB of RAM running Solaris, AIX or Linux as a Ferrari Testerosa, while the Z10 is more like Abrams M1A1. Not as fast the Testerosa, but pretty quick for something that weights over 60 metric tons....

I'm personally going with the latter.
Well I guess that if I don't want to be caught, I just have to wait 'til it's cloudy to commit a crime...
Sadly, even that is not likely to work. If this article from wayyy back in 2000 is any indication, they can see through clouds, smoke, etc.
And what about Podcaster?

Oh well, guess I'll just create a new one.
You are NEVER supposed to call him by his REAL NAME.
Dammit, you're going to blow our cover!

Don't forget pagans, too! We're even more evil than the atheists.

So, uh, this guy has a kid, apparently.

I mean really. It's not like this self-same concept never existed in other religions.

Ohhhhh, okay. That explains it. I was wondering why all the stories around here seem to be talking about Mozilla Firefox.
Couldn't have said it better myself, Mr. Geek. Well said, sir!

This error is known as the Bahhhh Sheep of Death.
Right. I forgot the part about I/O bandwidth. It's more about the utilization rates than about the speed of any one task/transaction/etc.

SpaceX IS making money after all.
Oh? Even with all the failures of their main product in the last few years?
