Funny how all "science" now seems to support a very particular liberal/environmentalist ideological agenda. Maybe that has something to do with the new scientific method:
Or it is because reality has a well-known liberal bias.
Meanwhile, my Pebble Time, which was recently released, has a ton of apps on it.
How much is "tons"? Is it more than the 7,400 TFA thinks are too little?
But then I'm missing out on activity tracking. Personally, I take mine off when I'm taking a dump, so that's when it charges. I don't take enough dumps to sustain an Apple Watch like that.
Well, you could charge it when posting on Slashdot - which for you is like taking a dump.
Battery life is not a problem if you charge it each night.
And how do you propose I do that if I'm using it for sleep tracking?
When you are not sleeping.
Developers offering products within another category [but Games] of app downloaded from Google Play must use Google Play In-app Billing as the method of payment, except:
where payment is solely for physical products; or
where payment is for digital content that may be consumed outside of the app itself (e.g., buying songs that can be played on other music players).
And yes, Google Play In-app Billing for digital products also is to be used for "Subscription services, such as streaming music".
So even if Google doesn't want a share of the profits (yet), they most certainly require apps on the Play Store to use their In App Purchase processing service. Something which you want to deny Apple.
" If they aren't colluding with other companies"
Except they already are, so we can skip this clause. They are making contracts with their suppliers that fix the prices for other people who are not a party to the contract negotiations.
Which Spotify has done before Apple - you do agree that Apple should sue them.
That gives me an idea
If anyone sees an article about Steve Jobs coming back from the dead to lead Apple again, it's totally legit.
Knowing Wallstreet analysts, this will actually drive down AAPL. I can see Business Insider's headline: "Apple's need to bring back Steve Jobs from the dead proves they are doomed."
Not to mention that all the Steve-Jobs-would-never-do-this arguments from Apple critics would revert back to Steve-Jobs-and-his-usual-blunders.
Who's doing anti GLBT hate crimes in DC? It's not white male techies.
White Republican politicians.
Soon to be featured in a denier argument near you!
"OK OK so burning fossil fuels DOES cause global warming, but we NEED to burn fossil fuels in order to compensate for the double solar whammy which will otherwise freeze the earth solid!"
I wonder if they will drop the "Climate scientists warned of a coming Ice Age in the 70s" bit instead.
Obligatory Onion video (one of their best); http://www.theonion.com/video/...
Hey, left-turner could actually learn from that video: "Look out the windshield. When you see a pedestrian over there, don't drive to that place."
