And of course any subpoena would include contacts of the individual under suspicion, and perhaps theirs too. Using facebook math, that is an average of 100,000 people for a single subpoena.

Every time I look at Activities I cannot figure a way to get them into my workflow in a way that benefits it.
Care to give me an example of how you are using them because I think I am missing something...
The market for xxx was always for non-xxx businesses - there are so many more of them needing to defend their brands. The porn industry was second.
We all knew this right, that why we all suggested it was a bad idea at the time?
I don't file my email into folders, I have a computer to do that. They are good at that kind of thing you know... popfile.
So now my search is faster than yours because I can target a foldered subset of my emails without the overhead of moving emails to the right folder. Looks like I win.
Or if we don't all descend from a common source (the rest having died or being killed off), does that give weight to racist arguments that blacks and whites are separate species?
No. And dogs that look different are not different species either. They are dogs.
I don't need to close Firefox and reopen it. It is perfectly able to close itself at random times for me.
When a Mars mission narration refers to "miles" and "feet" it makes me shudder.
Does anyone really uses HTML in emails? I mean seriously?
Certainly. Hopefully every email I send and receive is rich text aside from mailing lists and notifications.
Welcome to the new millennium where we don't *have* to use plain text for everything.
Not for me. It only understands Windows line feeds, so anything else I have is all on one line.
I am sure they will fix this eventually.
I want a new image format.
I want alpha, I want CMYK or whatever colourspace. I want exif or whatever metadata.
But more than anything I want it to support both lossy and lossless algorithms so we can finally see an end to people using jpg for everything, including hard contrast logos.
It would just take a checkbox on the save dialog with some wording to encourage lossless where appropriate.
driving side choice, and coke formula.
The coke formula thing is my favorite. The rest of the world went - ok whatever, a new taste coke. They shrugged and moved on.
In the US, there was outrage, and the subsequent re-introduction of the old formula as coke classic.
Units, date formats, coke, etc will never change because changing stuff is clearly anti-american.
Britain also horrendous libel laws.
Given that warning letters without significant supporting evidence can be considered damaging to the reputation of an individual, it would seem appropriate that if you are on the receiving end of a warning letter, you should sue the sender for libel.
If this happens enough, then it might results in changes to one of the DEA laws or libel laws, so it would be a win win type deal.
Nobody asked for the "awesome bar" or whatever the hell that is. If it improves productivity then fine
The address bar does auto complete from a number of sources such as history and bookmarks with a fall through to search if it isn't found. So yes they called it "awesome" making a gross error of naming judgement, but of course it improves productivity over the alternative of having four different searches.

It does confirm to standards, just not very many of them: http://people.mozilla.com/~prouget/ie9/

The goal for both Meego and Android should be to get their kernel customisations back into mainline.
They benefit everyone then, provided they are not customisations that only benefit the android stack.
As for using Dalvik.. doubtful. QT is the strategy and it goes beyond Meego, and is native.
"Stealing" is an odd term to use for open source. Sharing it is the point.
We don't need to worry too much about Nokia's involvement in MeeGo either - you can take your hat off. It is an open source linux distribution, and the more people / businesses that get involved, the lesser is Nokia's influence. My hope that this goes the way of other distributions, where corporations contribute but the distribution has its own life. Once MeeGo has reached a usability milestone we'll see xda port it to everything they can get their hands on, then demand will increase for handset manufacturers will be pressured in to providing open source (or at least blobs) drivers for their hardware. Then the tables will be reversed, asking not what handset/OS shall I buy, but what handset shall I buy, and which OS shall I install on it.
And it will go the way of the PC
