"require specialized hardware" basically meaning a specific touchscreen. which can be easily amended by purchase of an input device for a fraction of the cost of a tablet...
'ios applications' ? you mean the simple apps which are needed for performing tasks are done everyday on a pc ?
oh boy. its not because pcs cant run ios apps, its because the o/s is different. if you go down the road of discussing ios vs windows, linux etc, you shouldnt even show up in a discussion regarding usability and application proliferation.
neither of those can run symbian apps. but that doesnt mean 'apps cut both ways'. anyone needs symbian apps on a pc ?
3000 buck laptop will still be able to use all the apps your desktop is using, fool. the overpriced overhyped screwpad will not be able to run the apps the laptop is using.
"Post pc world" ? such a phrase is only for the fools who do not produce anything for others' consumption, but instead consume facebook posts, flickr images and spoon fed video/audio content.
let me tell you what's overrated :
sorting out your vacation pictures in an overpriced tablet.
Just confiscating the millions of tonnes of grain that rot in the silos because the big players keep them away from the market to prevent grain price falling too low for their comfort would suffice to feed everyone, even now.
oh but why should we take the freedom of the big players away, even if it is at the expense of world hunger and accompanying death... the 'market' is free to oligopolize the supply and let people die for its profit. we call this freedom.
is Electronic Frontier Foundation. Actually, i think u.s. patent office should not be second guessing EFF, since their competence and understanding of these issues far surpass patent offices', leave aside any corporations'.
"invisible hand of the market" will come in disguise, on its horse and black mystique mask, and will fix it for you.
of course, it may take 5 years, and in that duration, at&t may be deciding what services and even websites you, your kids, family will be able to access from their phones, and for what price, but hey - in the end, its all good right ?
no. it isnt. i want my kids, family to have REAL choices. not superficial choices that exists somewhere else in some faraway state, just fulfilling the 'competition' requirement in appearances.
but then again, this is what capitalism is right ? a transitionary phase until the holdings get consolidated into big feudal farms. just like how it happened in between 300-600 AD.
im leaving aside all the discussion about microsoft's patent trolling, debauchery, two-faced practice and so on.
fuck your intellectual property 'rights'. i havent given the right to monopolize LOGICAL constructs to you. it was done in my stead, despite me, and is maintained as a 'right', despite me.
noone has the right to ownership of LOGIC processes. i dont recognize any such right, regardless of what party bestowed you with it.
oh they would. you just dont know how professions go from high figure salaries to obscure salaries due to domestic oversupply.
americans think that world is that simple - as if wages are something that fly in the air, without any relation to anything else.
lawyers ? lawyers are an abomination. they can sue people for having eyebrows over their eyes and if they win, they can receive a share of a huge settlement. of course, wages never go down in that profession - because they are little different than glorified thugs - they assault you, and get your money. no different than why the income of a band of robbers always stayed much higher than a honest peasant in middle ages.
All those students who were staying away from STEM, instead enrolled in STEM, and there had been no offshoring/inshoring ?
They would just drive down their salary and youth would still stay away from STEM.
How do i know ? this is exactly what happened in my country in a duration of 20 years in regard to major technical disciplines. We had no inshoring/offshoring and so on.
In america's case, there is inshoring/offshoring, and the critical mass of people who drive down wages are produced by inshoring/offshoring, instead of the americans themselves flocking to those disciplines and driving down.
ALL the difference in between the two is, american universities had not made big bucks over students' enrollment fees during this process, like what happened in my country.
And from my experience, let me tell you ; there is no difference in between the two, from the perspective of us, the students/people/employees. (of course, unless you are an employee or owner of an education institution who was going to make big bucks over agonizing students' fees)
Is a dimension we made out of our ass. its properties do not fit with the properties of the other dimensions it is being bundled with. its just for practicality of physics really.
what does "forfeiture of the domain name of the company" even BEGIN to mean ?
when at&t, general motors, or bp is sued, can anyone put a 'forfeiture of the trademark' clause in their demands ?
how can these sons of whores are even able to come in front of a court with such a demand ? dont excuse the strong language - im really out of strong words to describe this situation. if you know some, please use them in a sentence with word 'Righthaven' so that i will learn some socially acceptable strong wordage for such a situation.
this invalidates everything rms says about free software, right ?
please. the regulars of this place are not your ordinary morons like in american public who would immediately fall for a character assassination and just forget what's what and what's not, even if accusations are true.
software, is software. pedophilia is pedophilia. opinions about pedophilia, are opinions about pedophilia.
one needs cognitive power as much to be able to differentiate in between this 3 set of concepts in order to be able to talk in slashdot and get proper attention.
i didnt go to church at any point in my life, i am not even christian, and even from turkey, i have met numerous people that said earth was 6000 years old or all creatures and everything came into being at an instant by 'god's word'
yeah moron. they can earn it legitimately, while saying that earth has been created 6000 years ago, in ACADEMIC field. yes. that is legitimate. and they can be geologists too - because, well we cant discriminate against moronic religious beliefs.
they understand. they understand very well that they dont want anyone other than themselves to succeed, no businesses competing them, customers feeding off their hand, on the terms they want them to.
and your explanation of the fundamentals of internet's success does not mean shit to them, neither they care - they want to have it, and you under their control.
explanations and talk will not do any good. you need to act, if you want to defend your interests.
See, youre a geologist, and you are trying to research paleontologic era. but, some moron comes up and says that earth was created 6000 years ago, and you have to work together with that moron to do your research.

"require specialized hardware" basically meaning a specific touchscreen. which can be easily amended by purchase of an input device for a fraction of the cost of a tablet ...
'ios applications' ? you mean the simple apps which are needed for performing tasks are done everyday on a pc ?
oh boy. its not because pcs cant run ios apps, its because the o/s is different. if you go down the road of discussing ios vs windows, linux etc, you shouldnt even show up in a discussion regarding usability and application proliferation.
neither of those can run symbian apps. but that doesnt mean 'apps cut both ways'. anyone needs symbian apps on a pc ?
Apps for that hould have been out long ago.
writing a web page or writing a script
are you SERIOUSLY attempting to say that you can 'write a web page or write a script' as well on a tablet, compared to a laptop ?
actually the 'write a web page' phrase gives out your familiarity with the subject - apparently none. or maybe simple stuff on a wordpress blog.
3000 buck laptop will still be able to use all the apps your desktop is using, fool. the overpriced overhyped screwpad will not be able to run the apps the laptop is using.
Thats that.

if its a sub property of each dimension, it means that it is a subproperty of dimensions, and NOT a dimension itself.
that actually maeks me right.
being affected by other dimensions, does not necessarily make time a dimension like others.

Apple does products that 'just work'.
dont dare say anything in contrast - else endless legions of applebois will talk smack to you and prove that those apples didnt crash.

very well formulated and pragmatic post. please mod parent up.
they understand. they understand very well that they dont want anyone other than themselves to succeed, no businesses competing them, customers feeding off their hand, on the terms they want them to.
