That said, who the hell said "let's make a dirt-cheap phone OS so the entire planet can enjoy the web!" and then decided to do everything in HTML and Javascript? Even Android is better than that. That's one of the areas where you would really want the speed and efficiency of a low-level language.
I think the idea was so the entire planet can not only use the phone but that it would be more accessible to build apps too.
To say NASA needs to only use the $5000 car isn't in our long term interest.
I couldn't agree more. Using a $5000 car would make NASA nearly irrelevant as a space agency.
Australia too charges income tax from money I earn abroad - namely the difference between the obscenely high Australian taxes and the much lesser taxes I pay in most other countries, even if I earned the money while working and living in those other countries
shhhh! You're new to America bashing aren't you?
So if Microsoft moves to Canada, does that mean they'll at least say "sorry" every time they do something bad?
The good news is that admins are more likely to run flash block or equivalent settings, and jquery.com isn't one of those evil sites that requires flash.
Now if we could just get Google to fully commit to a flash-free world...
It does seem odd that a defense budget would need to pony up so much for craft that are only useful for invading.
I'm also surprised everyone still hates Germany this much and considers that match a defeat rather than a victory.
Too soon?
You're just bitter you lost.
Also, why do non-USAsians cower behind anonymity?
Alberta is the most conservative part of Canada
Then fuck them. Why are we spending money to help racists?
Alberta also contributes more to our national economy than it receives from it. (unlike most red states)
Now we're all going to die of an alien disease.
Doesn't NASA watch any sci-fi?
Well, I do sincerely apologize for my unkind last statement. That was not compassionate and I suspect like most people you have redeeming qualities.
But in 2014 I am amazed at the bigotry expressed against people who vote differently. That is very ignorant. It's gotten to the point where people convince themselves anyone who votes ______ is pure of heart and and anyone who votes ________ is incapable of human decency. It takes a lot of work for political parties to make us that dumb.
You pretend to know me.
I have actually lived in a trailer.
Moreover, I know quite a few people who vote each way who are either compassionate or not.
Also, you are a douchebag.
Anything free is worth what you pay for it.
