as does fiber to the rest of the world. Look. We both know what is meant, who cares? Why waste your (and the mods) time complaining. In fact, why am I wasting my time complaining about your complaint?
I wish to register a complaint about your complaint...
This individual is no more, he cannot protect this right anymore than he can rise from the grave and eat brains.
That's what you think. Mmmm, brains...
It seems to me they decided that the user has too much freedom with Maemo and MeeGo, so they instead picked WP7 so the consumer remains a consumer where they can be forced upon, app stores and such.
I really hope that Nokia continue to work to Marmo/MeeGo in the background as a more long-term proposition. To but all of their Smartphone-shaped eggs in the WP7 basket would be folly, IMHO. Other manufacturers such as Samsung are offering at least two OSes - they are shipping handsets running Android and Bada OS. HTC's handsets will ship with virtually any OS at all. Sony Ericsson have toyed with Windows Mobile, but mostly use Symbian, but I think they are going to go much more with Android now.
They are great at designing, building and marketing dumbphones. Smartphones, however, they they are certainly heading towards rank incompetence at a rapid pace, especially given how badly they've handled the ownership of Symbian, Meamo and MeeGo.
They don't hate their customers. They hate people fucking up a platform they have billions of dollars invested in.
That's like Nike saying they get pissed off when someone scuffs a pair of their trainers...
As NATO discovered during the Yugoslav Civil War, by far the best way to stop opposing sides from shooting/shelling each other is to insert a Gurkha Regiment in between them... no-one wants to piss off the Gurkahs.
OK, I'm interested. How can this help me leverage the cloud?
By giving you a give enough lever and a pivot point?
And the article hits Slashdot just as they take down the Drupal servers for a 12 hour migration to Git. That's some good timing.
It's probably a pre-emptive strike to avoid getting slashdotted...
There really is no excuse for this at all. We're all entitled to a fair trial and the best legal defense available to us. This signifies that Paypal doesn't support the constitution or the rule of law. Shameful.
Looks like PayPal have had a missive change of heart and reinstated fully.
Courage to Resist's PayPal account now says "Your Account Access is Back in Regular Standing. Thank you for taking the steps to return your account to regular standing..." What, you mean complain loudly and publicly about what a bunch of idiots PayPal are on your own website, resulting in multiple other PayPal customers contacting them and signing an online petition to get the account reinstated properly?
I find that memory recall success is all about organization.
Well, that's me screwed then, given what a smeghole my bedroom is...
I think Ed Cooke's memory is as average as he claims. For example, I betcha he can't remember where my car keys are either.
My short-term memory is way below average - I can't even recall what Century it is in the mornings...
everyone else forgot to post
Forgot what..?
I wonder if/when a manufacturer will make a mobile device with built-in solar panels on it?
On my server the BIOS battery is dead for the last one or two years...
Or you could just replace the battery for the BIOS the next time you have to bring the system down? Then you can reflash the BIOS when it comes back up again and run it on for another 2 or 3 years quite happily...
Don't panic.
