The CDO is a Collateralized Debt Obligation, not a Consolidated Debt Object. If you got this most basic fact wrong, lord knows about the rest of your post.
On the iPhone, Location Services uses GPS as a fallback. They use, amusingly, Wifi to determine your location where possible to save battery, and GPS only if location is inconclusive from the Wifi networks in range.
Actually if it's before the ERA, it is not with the mediation service. The ERA is not a court either, it's a binding arbitration service. And it's pretty damn impartial, considering the Department of Labour itself quite frequently finds itself on the wrong side of ERA disputes with employees.
It's none of the above. The ERA (Employment Relations Authority) is a government arbitration service, not a court. Employment court exists, but this is not before the employment court. Lying is not a criminal offense, but it's sure not going to help your case.
The statement is that you cannot monetize open source, which is fundamentally incorrect. Redhat has managed to monetize it quite effectively even while giving away their source simply because redistributing Redhat's source "as-is" is trademark infringement and therefore actionable, and modifying it to comply with trademark law is enough trouble as to not be worth it. Thus, Redhat gives out the source, retains control of distribution, and asks for money. Something that the GGP claimed is impossible.
Redhat also monetizes by their use of the "Redhat" trademark. You cannot redistribute Redhat's binaries or source "as-is" because if you do so you are violating trademark law, and they can (and will) sue you. The CentOS project spends a lot of time stripping Redhat's trademarks from RHEL prior to redistributing it as CentOS.
Yup, and the GCHQ gets all their intelligence on Brits from the NSA, GCSB, and CSEC (no, not Citadel Security, Communications Security Establishment Canada). And CSEC gets their Canadian intelligence from GCHQ, NSA, and GCSB, and GCSB gets their NZ intelligence from CSEC, GCHQ, NSA, and so on, and so forth.
Actually, I think their Mac sales are actually because their Mac products are rather good. They're written by a completely different division who did things like resist the ribbon much longer than their Windows counterparts did.
So like the disproportionate amount of time spent discussing Subway during an episode of Chuck, or the praise heaped upon Skydrive during an episode of NCIS:LA then.
He's referring to the industry standard which dictates cell phones charge using a standard Micro-USB cable. Apple complied with this by releasing a Micro-USB to Lightning/30-pin Dock Connector adapter, which basically defeated the purpose of the standard (to allow any phone to be charged with any cable, and reduce the frequency of having to dig through your drawer for the one charger you need through your 15 Nokia chargers).
No, but Spotify is not sold to you as a purchase of music, it's sold to you as an a la carte subscription to listen to music. You wouldn't expect it to still work if Spotify no longer existed.
Mozilla - this is the start of every UA string. Even Internet Explorer's. AppleWebKit - this is the rendering engine previously used, likely still mentioned for compatibility. KHTML - WebKit is a fork of KHTML, so this indicates that anything that works for Konqueror will probably work for WebKit. Gecko - KHTML was designed to render similarly to Gecko, this basically just tells servers "if you haven't got anything for me, anything for Gecko is OK". Chrome - this is the browser. Safari - this is the reference WebKit version, likely included to tell servers that if they don't support Chrome then just treat the browser like Safari.
Maybe (I wouldnt guarantee it) but they're not going to pick up Evolution. Or OpenOffice (face it, the interface is not close enough to Office for the average user). Or Gimp.
They're screwed if their network doesn't "just work" like it does in Windows or Mac. Or if their video card doesn't have drivers. Or they get even one of Linux's obscure esoteric error messages (I realise that Windows' error messages can sometimes be just as esoteric - but for the most part they at least try to offer suggestions to fix the issue).
No, they've taken it into account all right. They've also factored in the number of slashdot style geeks that will rage about the requirements, but already have a preorder and will be standing in line at midnight on day one anyway. Gamers aren't known for sticking to their principles.
Personally, I prefer to be upfront. I'll buy one, cause from my perspective it looks like a damn good media centre PC. PS4 looks more like the gaming device... for now.

I think you'll find to a corporate, it's Outlook and Project that are irreplaceable. And naturally, fucking Access.

Or, you can order some knockoff Lightning cables from DealExtreme for $2 with free shipping.
Yay China.

No no, controls. Where the device manufacturer controls who is blessed to make peripherals for it!
Which is fine, because even most Americans admit the current US system seems to be doing a spectacular job of collapsing as well.
Who will in turn outsource their own spying back.

Noone buys the Lamb Korma from the staff cafeteria. In all fairness, the Vegetarian Nachos are actually somehow worse.
No, New Zealand and Australia are.
I'm sure a company in Washington, United States cares what Germany says.
Try that when your internet spontaneously fails. Steam requires you to be online to go offline.
Stardock isn't a digital distribution platform. You're thinking of (*shudder*) Gamestop.

Incorrect. Your phone talks directly to the bulb, NOT to any LIFX servers. The bulbs also don't "phone home". Where are you getting your info from?
