Is North Korea left alone because they have a bomb, or because if the US fucked with them China would come in and put a stop to it?
Personally I think it is because 75% China would step in and 25% because the South Koreans actually would be upset if we killed their relatives in the north.
Or hell, Pakistan has the bomb and we do drone strikes in Pakistan damn near daily.
Having a bomb will not stop the US from driving the Iranian government out of power.
I'd be *really* surprised if Iran didn't have competitions among students, trying to find hot programmers to attack Israeli military and nuclear sites' software.
It would surprisef me that's for sure. One of the thing wrong with the Iranian government is it is completely corrupt so if you don't know someone you probably are not getting a job with the government. You most probably get a job in the cyber annoyance department by being recommended for it from someone already within the department.
Building a nuclear bomb is hugely expensive, especially if you have to do it 100 feet underground.
With the money that the Iranian government is using for a bomb they could build a world class well just about anything. Something that the populace of Iran can be proud of, something that when people talk of Iran they talk about that great thing they accomplished. Instead they are trying to build a bomb.
The Iranians could even work on creating a commercial grade thorium reactor that would get them off of petroleum, but nooooo, they want a bomb instead.
This year I had a customer call asking what exactly what it was that she purchased, and if it required a computer to use, and then questions about every step required to use said product.
It was a flash drive with practice tests on it, I asked for a raise after that call.
It is only a negotiating tactic if it ARM servers don't pan out for them, otherwise it is probably an attempt at finding out what the actual demand is for a product such as this.
I'm just as in charge with my iPhone5 as I was with my Android Optimus.

Plus, I'm not going to invest my time/money in software that can be discontinued at any point by Mysteryappwriter#78234 or hardware that can be discontinued/EOL'd at anytime by some manufacturer-and-guardian-of-the-OS overlord.
When I was trying to decide how to respond to the original post I thought of many ways to tell the person that their request was ridiculous, but instead figured I would give the person a place to start and I figured that a rooted android device would probably be the best place for him to start.
So yes you are just as much in control of your apps with iPhone as with Android and as with Linux.
But if a developer says "I can write my software one, against the WinRT APIs, and it'll run on 300 million PCs, 50 million tablets, and some number of phones"
That is one lofty goal there, I'll believe it when it happens.
There needs to be one device that does everything I want.
Why? Because I want it that way, I don't want to buy this one device for one feature and another device for another feature, that would be idiotic.
There doesn't need to be a brand that does it all, and there doesn't have to be just one device that does everything I want. There can be many devices from many brands that do everything I want.

I can think of at least one nuclear armed country that the US does strikes within their borders without their permission on a nearly daily basis.
Having the bomb will not stop the US from going after you if you do not have powerful friends.

He is not a horrible person for getting a good job, but you are for implying he is.

By that definition Israel is also being listed as "the west".
That is actually some good advice.

Are they guilty of anti-trust issues if the algorithms put their results first, not due to manipulation, but due to popularity?

No, what we need is for Nvidia to buy Via which would give Nvidia an in for x86 processors as well as many other similar markets.

And margaritas.
There is no cheating. The rules are simple, two men enter, one man leaves.
I feel like there should be a drinking and smoking robot somewhere repeating "Bite My Shiny Metal Ass"

And this time Microsoft can't blame the low specs on the manufacturers like they did in regards to Vista.
And that will solve his or her discontinued software from Mysteryappwriter#78234 how?
Because he will be in charge of what is on his device, much like if he installed linux on the device, which is what he said he wanted.

There will be fragmentation.
A rooted android device is going to be your best bet.

The problem with that is they won't be playing online games due to the latency issues so the only people they can play with are their co-workers.
No escape anywhere.
Another Great Invention that's going to make our lives A LOT better !!!
They just made a non-lethal bomb, it is going to make someones life a whole lot better.
Now you harden the electrical system it is connected to.
Would it even be possible to see in the first place though.
Not as in detecting that it exists, but photons are only going one way, and that is the same direction you are going.
Also, think how much more money carriers may be able to squeeze out of users without needing to invest more in infrastructure!
This might actually hurt them then because they charge by what was transmitted, not by what was received.
Well that is one way one to make Windows 8 easier to use on the desktop.
