Sorry, first *widebody* plane with outward-opening cargo doors...and also the first widebody plane.
Outward-opening cargo doors are standard on airliners nowadays, the 747 was the first to have them.
Demand for privately-built spacecraft drops by what, 33%? Ouch.
I've had Lynx on my phone for a long time now...I would like a text-only browser that's more user-friendly (as in, more "normal") and maybe tries to make the layout match the rendered HTML more closely than Lynx though. For example Lynx shows a lot of menus as trees with different levels of indentation. There's no reason a pop-up menu system couldn't work in a CLI.
This. Basically the same thing with different wording and the blame shifted to the consumer. Sadly some may fall for this.
Well look at it this way, with net neutrality your upstream home connection may be slow but the traffic would be as "important" as anything else - with a tiered Internet, upstream home traffic would be put in the Internet infrastructure's leper colony. Unless it's streaming video over Skype or something "important" (run by people who make deals with ISPs).
And now that all our objections have been duly noted, they'll go ahead and end net neutrality anyway.
I'm sure it being used to detect if you are scanning currency.
I guess IDCLIP toggles the wireless capability...
My data center is completely safe against tigers. It's due to the construction materials used but I can't go into any detail.
As bundled crapware.
Preinstalled Windows is only cheaper than separate copies of Windows because MS decides to price it lower - precisely to perpetuate its use as a lock-in mechanism. So your price argument is a circular one.
Tires and cars is partly a decent analogy because there are similar bundling deals used with new cars, but there are a couple of big differences - there isn't a convicted monopolist behemoth tire manufacturer dominating the market with a more expensive and arguably inferior product that's bundled with virtually all cars, and not only do most people not drive their car on the factory-fitted tires for the vehicle's entire life, but they'll be forced to change them early in the car's life.
In fact if I was buying a car, I'd love to have the option to choose some Kumho SPTs or maybe even Dunlop Z2s over the bargain-bin all-seasons or slippery eco-tires that most cars come with.
Unless you're managing a power plant, somewhere that uses long-distance radio links or a place with long non-fiber network cable runs, you can ignore it.
You all need to learn to enjoy the sweet delicious lulz, and show your appreciation by laughing while they curse!
