We already have intercontinental audiovisual communication in real time, machine translation, and handheld computers with near-instant access to many libraries worth of knowledge. With a couple of centuries to go. I'd say we're doing pretty well so far.
A lot of people were killed at Auschwitz. A lot of them were Jews, killed simply because they were Jews. They numbered in the millions. How many millions is immaterial. Now KGFY.
And let's be honest here--if we had boots on the ground and weren't merely dropping bombs on them, you'd be bitching about "not our fight" or similar because OMG OBAMA is BLACK OH NOEZ.
As soon as I read the words, "has a more premium feel", I knew this review had been written by a mouth-breathing marketing moron. WTF is that even supposed to be, other than words strung together in attempt to make idiots feel smug about their cluelessness?
As for mine--no removable battery, no removable storage, no desire whatsoever to buy.
I use OpenSUSE. The few things I've not been able to find in their stock repos (most notably a non-braindead version of VLC) have always been available in the alternative repos which can be located simply by searching http://software.opensuse.org/ (Packman rocks, BTW). The only stuff I ever *have* to compile on anything like a regular basis is for work.
But I'm thinking you already knew that but couldn't resist making that hoary old troll in lieu of expressing an original thought. Much less having one.
My personal favourite is sites that get your screen resolution and assume your browser window has the same dimensions.
My second favourite is sites that try to force every link to open in a new window. (Yes, 90+% of Chinese websites, I'm looking at you. WTF is with that, anyway?)

I doubt that, there are no sharks in space.
That we know of.
...and sometimes during a call it will randomly switch to demonic-sounding voices with an intense amount of static...
Oh, you mean the ones that always start out saying, "ATTENTION: This is NOT a dream...!"? You can safely ignore those.

Feel free to submit to a gentle, peaceful decapitation. Be sure to let us know how that works out for you.
Greetings from Guangzhou!
Ever been on the wrong side of the Great Firewall of China?
Didn't think so.
Now... You were saying...?

They're perfectly free to express themselves. We're in no way obligated to provide them a platform.
Let them build their own Twitter, with blackjack and hookers.
The US military don't get to make policy. They get to follow orders from the C-in-C.
Or maybe you forgot what happened during the Korean War when a certain US general tried to slip his leash?
Oh yes, that's so very relevant. *eyeroll*
I thought I detected <sarcasm> tags around it. Or maybe there's a grease spot on my glasses.
Airstrikes, anyone?
And let's be honest here--if we had boots on the ground and weren't merely dropping bombs on them, you'd be bitching about "not our fight" or similar because OMG OBAMA is BLACK OH NOEZ.

Yes, and...?
You think wrong. "Without" = "Does not have".

I recognised PayPal as a scam from the outset. Never used them, never will.
True, that. Except for the part where other uneducated morons might agree and be motivated to act accordingly.
US citizens can get a visa online to visit AUS or NZ, and IIRC that's also true going the other way.
Personally, I'm all in favour of Thor turning up to the Supreme Court, but he probably wouldn't be allowed in on account of not having a visa.
Citizens of the Nordic countries don't need visas to visit the US. So bring him on.
So yes. There are backups. If there weren't, this outage would have been international news, and not just a blurb on Slashdot.
I read about it yesterday at bbc.co.uk. But thanks for playing.
Your semi-literacy must be an embarrassment to you.
Thanks for helping me laugh on a sad day.
Yes, he took a few missteps, as have we all.
Yes, he was still awesome, and yes, he gave those of us who grew up in the 60s/70s a different and better sort of role model.

Not my problem if you're stuck in the '90s.
Two words: "Package manager".

We'll always have postcards.
