    So in the star trek universe, Cochrane built the first drive so the field metrics was named after him does this mean that some skinny dude 60 yrs from now will do the same thing?

    I'm confused. Are you suggesting Arab leaders aren't assholes? they repress women, kill homosexuals, and slaughter their own people if it suits them. History records their religious leader as a misogynistic pedophile. One country is buiding nukes to blow up another not for resources but the the sake of doing so. Those are the definition of assholes. Also since when was any Bilderburg attendee a conservative? Are they supposed to the be secret masters according the crazies on the net? Smh

    The answer will be no. Why? Simple. The masses are mostly clueless. They will simply return the desktops. Tablets are 1 to 2% of sales. The companys are a: ignore it because they have just moved to 7. b: ignore it because of customized apps (walmart still uses green screens for its master scheduling in house and winxp for its intranet) c: refuse because of the immense money involved in training.
    So the leverage will fail. Windows itself won't die but there will be enough bloodletting that Ballmer will get the boot along with his cronies. People are lazy. They don't want to learn no things. The power uses are angry. I for one won't suggest it. Not because because metro is evil or bad. Simply because its poorly though out.

    No. Bieber was discovered in 2008 by American talent manager Scooter Braun, who came across Bieber's videos on YouTube and later became his manager. Braun arranged for him to meet with entertainer Usher Raymond in Atlanta, Georgia, and Bieber was soon signed to Raymond Braun Media Group (RBMG), and then to an Island Records recording contract offered by record executive L.A. Reid.
    Braun got his launch into the world of hip-hop via producer Jermaine Dupri, the director of So So Def Records. Braun was 19 years old when Dupri asked him to join So So Def in a marketing position, and 20 when Dupri named him So So Def's executive director for marketing. See the problem? You have a tinear talent manager who gains his experience from a hip-hop producer so he watches videos on youtube and finds Beiber? No. Biber was marketable. Plain and simple.

    No. This is one of the reasons why he is hated. He shouldn't not be wealthy. Most of us are sick of the quasi-talented being massaged into superstardom while the truly talented (those who can sing, write their own music and play an instrument) languish. ( You could take them out and artists, choreographers, singers, bands, CG modellers, stores, printing companies and so on could still find each other pretty damn easily.) Yes but the cost would still be prohibitive. Labels are only going for marketing. They charge way too much for that now.

  19. Re:Not the actual new name. on Microsoft Drops 'Metro' Name For Windows 8 UI · · Score: 0

    According to the article,

    The Windows team is "working on a replacement term" according to the memo, "and plans to land on that by the end of this week." Until then, employees have been advised to refer to the Metro style user interface as the "Windows 8 style UI."

    So "windows 8 style UI" is just a temporary name while the look for a new one.

    I can help! Hmmm? How about Fubar! It think Fubar UI works well. If not that then POS UI
