Back in my day we had to put in the tapes for space wars and figure out how to assemble it on our pdp-1 and then if were lucky and some loser didn't decide to make a small addition to the code to break it, THEN we could start it up on the CRT tube and play with light guns. now get off my lawn.

I dont' agree with you, I've seen enough older tech guys who stopped at learning dir,cd and nothing else but claim to be cli users. I'm in my mid 20s and only have one person at work who can beat me at cli-ness, a 43 year old hacker who worked at Bell labs in the late 80s.

Actually I think it's because it's cheaper. The Samsung/LG phones are cheap.

Lack of PR. I mean, nobody knew wtf android was. Every time I go pay my wireless bill at the store ( they have a kiosk next to my office) I see people asking what android is and what the diff between it and the iPhone. Every time the vendor just recommends the iPhone. It's not which platform has better UI/Feature blah blah. It's just the fact that people have heard of the iPhone and have no clue what is android.

There is only one Phone that supports iOS, there is no point in making a difference.

But that's not how you beat the Zergs man. You need to expend at some point.

Well I can see a case against the car driver, since most rural highways don't restrict against pedestrian traffic on the side, and I can also see a case against the city or county since this road could be required to have a sidewalk (some laws I believe about sidewalk on road with a certain amount of traffic) but google in this case really can't be blamed because it's not like they force her to take that route, they suggested this route.

but votes talk louder. If they aren't reelected they can't keep doing bullshit. New bullshit is better than old bullshit, the smell is newer.

That says a lot about the usefulness of lectures now days. I'm one of the worst offenders in class. But at least I'm coding something useful OR posting on slashdot ;p I know this will break most lecturers heart but most student don't understand much listening to lecture. It's usually a water hose of information that don't compare to good online notes. At least for the more visual students.

I had asteroid on my TI-83 ;p

Except the S.S. aren't the only one who could benefit from this information. I'm sorry for them but the reality is that the function is performing as advertised. The S.S. having a backdoor is just that much easier for crackers to get in your phone. Remote wipe is an important feature now that our phones hold much more info then they used to.

Oh, my bad, I was under the impression that the delayed one was the last. But I'm still not able to go :(

Well that means only one liftoff left to go. Sad day.

and friends? sorry but you're all alone ;p

Well, they were in the process of creating a actionscript vm for firefox with the Mozilla foundation if I remember correctly.
