Actually that's all pretty much wrong.. it supports a lot more then Google Docs formated files - in fact even shows thumbnails apparently of a lot of standard file types when browsing. Integration seems to be it's sweet spot.
Don't need an Apps account - works fine on regular users (although it seems to be a phased rollout - it told me that my (Canadian) account will be enabled soon.
Don't remember telling you if you should care or not. Question was asked and I provided the answer. If that offended your fanboyism I apologize.
But while on the topic - We all know how well only having one Web browser (IE6) worked out for everyone. And if you're providing anecdotes - Safari runs like crap on Windows.
All alternate browsers must use the Safari rendering engine - in short you can get a fancy front end, but not a new backend (like say Firefox's backend, or Opera, etc) Note that Opera's Mini browser gets a pass since most work doesn't occur on the device, but Opera's backend servers. You can't get the "real" Opera browser on the phone.
Unless somethings changed in the last year, I can't port Opera or Firefox or Chrome over, etc
Really, your going to determine who gets medical treatment based on beliefs?
How is that better then when a religion does it? Oh wait let me guess, the difference is your way is the One True Way, and the others are wrong and most be shown the Light?
"Is this any different than requiring you to affirm your faith in god before taking comunion"
Your comparing communion to medical treatment?
Not believing in science is DUMB. Granting medical access based on beliefs? Beyond dumb.
Microsoft Koolaid? Maybe you misunderstood me. I'm saying that the parent is wrong to say Windows 7 is more secure, it just hasn't been proven yet. Yes.. I'm attacking Microsoft by defending Microsoft. That's a new one.
Security through Obscurity DOES in fact exist. It's a crappy method, and unadvisable, but it exists. Are there vulnerabilities? Sure, there's just less people looking for them.
To be honest, the reason I feel that you see less exploits for Win7 Phones over iOS or Android is it's newer and has a MUCH smaller user base. Security through Obscurity. Assuming Win7 EVER breaks through, I expect to see more and more exploits / security issues for it as well.
Want a secure Mobile OS? Start with the user. Don't install a ton of apps, verify the permissions (if viewable) it is requesting is in line with what the app actually does (sending text is fine if it's a texting app, not so fine if it's some Wallpaper app, ugh), and go from there.
Look into those phones that run 2 OS's - one for "Work" (or Secure) and one for "Home" (or Play).
BTW - I've ran Palm, iOS and Android phones, never had an exploit on either. In both cases I chalk that up to luck and not being an idiot with installing stuff.
It should. I know there's Ubuntu running on the original Transformer (that's what I have) - don't have the dock or I'd have given it a go. Check out the Transformer XDA Forums for more info on it. It'll probably take a bit of work to get it going on this newer hardware, but I'd be suprised if it's not ported fast (Purely my own speculation, however)
Just remember it's still ARM.. not a full powered Intel/AMD chip running inside.
Sooo a discussion about Apple's 4S (which notably does not have 4G, and is stated as a Good Thing by many Apple fans due to the murder it does to batteries) vs Samsung (which in this case DOES do 4G).. I don't think it's outside the realm of possibility that this was yet another "4G sucks because the battery sucks" type comment.
Not to mention 2 of Jo42's previous few comments have been comparing Android to Hemorrhoid. Again, not really a stretch to consider his post a flame.
With the 4G on probably less then when he has the 4G off?
Battery life a Samsung phone with 4G on: I'd say poor
Battery life a Samsung phone with 4G off: I'd say good to great
Battery life of an iPhone with 4G on: 0, because you aren't allowed to
Battery life of an iPhone with 4G off: great
Yeah, that's Apple winning right there. Let me guess when the iPhone 5 comes out with 4G, 4G will then be awesome?
Another vote for TomatoUSB over DD-WRT - open source and very feature rich. The Asus RT-N16 runs great on Tomato - that's what I use and love it but like mentioned above it's only single band.
I think you should take some time, live in Iran for 5 years, then switch and live in the US for 5. I'd be curious if you'd consider the US a "dictatorship ruled by religious fundamentalists of the worst kind" after that.
Your other argument is highly flawed - having 1 nation with enough Nukes to destroy the world.. yeah that's bad. However we don't need Iran to step in and make sure the other guys don't nuke. We already have France, Britain, US, China, Russia, Pakistan, India, etc etc. At a point there's such a thing as too much. I think we already proved in the 50 previous years that the US and Russia/USSR was sufficient to keep a stalemate in check. Countries like Iran will likely never have enough nukes to counter the "dictatorship" of the US anyways - if the US is really so scary they are better off siding with China or the Russians.
Besides, if I was American (And I'm not) I wouldn't honestly be worried about Iran nuking me. However if I was in the middle east I'd be EXTREMELY concerned.
So basically your saying that assuming these hackers have gone in, recovered your password, AND you used the same password for your email, it's safe to assume they didn't change your password to lock you out?
Although no answer is perfect, in your solution you are requiring that the original WineHQ accounts are still uncompromised which is an unsafe assumption. Assuming the email is still safe is generally the safer of the two options. Using the email the only people that MIGHT get burned are those that used the same password on both. Both options involve risk.
Soooo I thought what you said was interesting, and I took a look around. The MiG31 is a 1975 design. The 29 was first flown in 1977. The Su series is, near as I can tell, designs based on the Sukhoi Company a major arms (warplane) builder. So saying the "SU series" is kinda dumb, since that includes designs from the 30s.....
Since you didn't bother to qualify any of your statements with anything, short of you providing proof, I'm going to have to label you troll. Nice try tho.
When I first decided to switch from iPhone to Android I had, for various reasons, 2 options open to me. SE's X10 and an Acer Liquid E. Similar stats, same processor (underclocked on the Acer) etc etc. However the X10 was rocking Android 1.6, while the Acer just went from 2.1 to 2.2 at the time. SE was slow and painful with their upgrades.
Fast forward to now, and I finally dropped the Acer and it's horrible build quality and went.. Sony Xperia (Play). I've gotten 2 firmware upgrades since getting it, and it even has a lot of nice touches specific to Sony like a Home Launcher that doesn't suck and features like xLoud. It's hard to believe this is the same SE that launched the X10 and then forgot about it. I've always liked the hardware, and now even the Software seems to be getting up to snuff.
I'm still a bit leary, I mean in a year they seemed to do a 180, and in a year they could do it again and go back to the old ways, but so far I'm liking it. What they really need to start doing however is releasing some dual core phones to keep up with the competition (that new Galaxy S 2 looks amazing), maybe even a newer Xperia Play that supports HDMI out (big screw up on their part in the original)
Thanks for the response
