The U.S. started it decades ago by propping up a dictator in Iran. If you are too lazy to read history, I suggest you go watch Argo. Hint #1: pay attention to *why* the Iranians took those hostages. Hint #2: Argo took place in 1980. Saying "Iran started it" based on their alleged actions in the past decade when this has been going on for over 3 decades is just plain silly.

It has not been demonstrated that they do actually have a covert weapons program. Iraq WoMD all over again. In addition, they are a sovereign country even if they were I would not begrudge them that. Several of their (hostile) neighbors have them, and the U.S. (also hostile) has enough nukes to decimate all life on earth... why should they not be allowed to pursue them? Stop crying foul over this bullshit.

I live 20 min drive from work, 10 min bike. Driving in the downtown core of a major city is counter-productive.

I thought the point of open source was that anyone can fork it and roll their own. No-one should be beholden to their upstream source. This is what Canonical did, why do they flak for it? It still needs some work (re:customization), but I for one find Unity pretty slick.

Intelligent people weigh the pros and cons on entering into an agreement, and if they see a net win for themselves they continue.

If you do not see said net win for yourself, you are free to avoid that contract.

The sender is bound to no such thing, and does not need to be in order for Google to do this. The receiver is bound to it, and it is the receiver that has and owns the email after the sender has sent it.

Same as if you hire someone to read all of your incoming mail - the sender of the mail need not be aware/agree to it being read. There is novel here.

REST APIs are your friend. If you follow solid design principles, such as seperating the view from the model, and use open protocols, adding a second UI is trivial.

FTFY

I live in Canada and have 100mbps internet with no cap for $50/mnth. Unlimited everything(calls/longdistance/internet) cell phone for $40/mnth.

The way I read his comment is that he is condemning both, not defending one. Both books preach violence and other more horrible acts.

I don't know about that, he got modded up. Positive Karma right there.

Its not about the user caring, its about the handset manufacturers caring.

Magnets, how to they work?

Say what you want about it, call me a shill, whatever. I actually like Unity.
