The Xoom has features that the iPad doesn't. The iPad's UI is smoother than the inaugural Android 3 (Honeycomb) release. We needed 7 pages to tell us that??
Surely you didn't think you owned your private parts, did you?! Those are the property of the telephone company! Any unauthorized tampering or manipulation carries a hefty penalty.
If that's the case then I'm pretty sure many of us owe the telephone company a lot of money.
They just want to outsource the work onto the tax payer's wallet. So we effectively are arresting ourselves.
ICE/DHS: Stop arresting yourself. Stop arresting yourself. Citizen: Mooooom! Make him stop! ICE/DHS: Stop arresting yourself. Citizen: Mooooom! SCOTUS: Will you two just get along already? Don't make me come back there! [ICE/DHS winks at SCOTUS; SCOTUS winks back.]
the summary is that the performance differences are explained by relatively small bugs in Firefox, bugs in IE9, and bugs in the benchmarks, not due to any major architectural issues in Firefox (as Microsoft would have you believe).
So MS is spouting some anti Firefox FUD? When did this start? How are we supposed to measure browsers against each other if one (or both) sides aren't telling the truth. My confidence is crushed... just crushed.
and a host of private attorneys representing the Twitter account holders
What other information are they after if they already have the identity of the twits (or is it twitees)? If they are represented by attorneys the court already knows who they are, right? Any tweets they posted were publicly available. What other info does Twitter have about these individuals?
'This is good because we know that some patients don't respond to the conventional therapy. This could be an optional treatment for them,'
A spider bite is considered conventional therapy? BTW, where does the spider need to bite them? If it's, um, 'south of the border' then I think this isn't going to be as profitable as they hope.
The pair showed a video demonstration of phones from a wide range of manufacturers, including LG, Sony Ericsson, Nokia and others rebooting, freezing and generally acting flaky after receiving the crafted SMS messages they sent.
They don't provide any real details or model numbers. They don't mention Android, iOS or Blackberry so they probably can't hit a smartphone with this attack. But there are enough feature phones out there that they can weak havoc.
I don't see how GPS jammer can be positively useful
Rental Car companies often track your usage and bill you extra if you leave the state(s) you said you were going to use the rental car in. If you're being tracked by the <insert name of law enforcement agency here> you can render their tracking devices useless. I'm sure there are other opportunities to take advantage of the "stealth mode" offered by such a device.
More accurately, *I* want information to be free.
So why charge for music, film, books, software, etc?
Go ahead and produce some content that others would want and tell us what you think it's worth ("free" being the lowest and "Charlie Sheen's salary" being the high end).
HBGary's systems were just riddled with security holes. From URL parameters that weren't scrubbed to straight MD5 password hashing to using the same password for several (and possibly many) accounts on different systems (servers, email, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc). I'm sure glad something as important as our government didn't use their security services. Oh, wait... D'oh!
... It's a meth dealer! It's a shame that these comics will probably be ruined in some humid evidence locker for a few years until he goes to trail. I guess he'll just have to read regular "affordable" comics while he's in prison.
Tell you what. I will buy you one, if you promise to stop using "never mind" as one word. Or, you can promise to always use the new word "alwaypayattentionto" as its antonym. But I think the first choice is better.
In french the word for grammar sounds a lot like grandmother, so when I was in 4th grade getting ready to learn about grammar i thought we were going to be learning about a grandmother. True story.
How scary was it to hear that a grandmother might have dangling participles? No one wants to see that!

I have a friend that was also arrested by ICE in a case of double jeopardy. We're still fighting for him. ICE needs some sort of accountability.
Hmm, what works against ICE ... the only thing I can think of is FIRE (Fucking Idiots Ruin Everything!)
Microsoft's Link to Ticketmaster Site Spurs Trademark Lawsuit
Computer & Online Industry Litigation Reporter, May 6, 1997, Pg. 24087
A suit from 1997? I have to guess that Ticketmaster didn't win or we all would have heard about it by now.

Yay, there are servers... but no people
No people? Then who's going to buy all the "apocalypse clearance sale" stuff on my client's websites??

What you want is PACER, the only nuclear fusion plant whose construction is a "mere" engineering problem. Power by blowing up hydrogen bombs!
The construction isn't going to be as bad as the maintenance. That's a crew who's always going to be in a bad mood.
When are we going to get the hint and switch to unobtanium?
I'm pretty sure that fusion is the same as unobtanium for the foreseeable future.
I'll stick to my human horn, thanks.
Lrrr, are you still taking Spanish Fry?

Were the designers of SMS the morons here, or the phone OS coders?
Probably both.

Hey guys! Look! I just took a dump! ON AN iPAD!
Obligatory: There's an app for that.
My guess is he is just copying and pasting from places like Wikipedia. Hungary's constitution will seem remarkably familiar to some folks.
Especially if he's using [1] citations or hyperlinks.
The worst part is someone got paid for 3 years to study this.
Hmmm ... maybe I'll see if a grant is available to study how these kinds of studies get funded.

So it isn't necessarily 'high prices' but prices that prices aren't adjusted to the developing country's standard of living?

OK, finally we are moving away from x86 and toward RISC. We are only 20 years behind schedule, but hey, better late than never.
Does this mean I'll finally be able to use my books on CHRP?

Shouldn't that be 'alwayspayattentionto'?
