Apple isn't going to do it because they want to control everything.
When a company's actions lack any financial motive, chances are they're doing it out of principle. When Apple exercises control over something (like a closed iPhone App Store), it has a financial motive. Refusal to sell personal information has no financial motive.
Got an example you can link to?
For what it's worth, immaculate conception isn't unheard of in humans: http://journals.lww.com/greenjournal/Abstract/1979/03001/Pregnancy_in_a_True_Hermaphrodite.14.aspx
Comparing the DOS prompt to a Unix shell is like comparing a toddler's big-wheels to a top end performance motorcycle.
Sort of yes, sort of no. Some people live in rural or semi-rural areas where they have crappy ISPs. That means you can't play SC2 any way you like, any time you like. Much of this game requires a constant internet connection, especially since (and I learned this the hard way) it's prone to random deletion of your locally cached maps for no apparent reason (forcing you to redownload everything).
If you don't have an Internet connection to Blizzard's servers, you can't play maps you've created, even when they're already right on your hard drive.
Yeah, because one typing error on an uneditable web forum is an indicator eh? Makes total sense.
My point still stands. Much of what's on ArXiv is crap. I've seen too many jackoffs claim that they've proven/disproven the Riemann hypothesis, and they go to ArXiv because it's the only place that doesn't tear their paper apart.
Although arxiv is a preprint repository, virtually all papers you find there have ended up published in peer-reviewed publications.
I'm sorry, but this is just wrong. I've plenty of crappy non-peer reviewed papers on ArXiv.
Oni was a product of "Bungie West" an offshoot of Bungie itself. They had slightly different goals than Bungie did, namely making games that were Mac/PC/Console releases. People forget Bungie West existed mainly because Oni was their ONLY game before Bungie dissolved them.
What makes you think that? The original public demo? That was an super early alpha, so of course it looked different. That goes for any game.
Halo originally wasn't ever intended to be an XBox game. Back in those days, Bungie was a Mac-only game company.
Then Bungie publicly showed a demo of an early alpha version in action. M$ saw it and decided they wanted to have it as an exclusive for the new console they were developing.
To Mac users it was like Halo was stolen before it even left the womb.
The LED light does actually produce significant heat. It's nowhere near as much heat as an incandescent or CFL, but because LED's have such a very low heat tolerance (heat reduces their lifespan), keeping them cooled them isn't as easy as simply removing the AC/DC converter.
Some theories posit that trichromatic vision is a genetic mutation where the M cone gene was copied and mutated to result in a slight shift. If it were a truly independent adaptation, you might expect it to be much further away
Why would genetic mutations be distinct or exclusive from "truly independent adaptation? I'm guess I fail to see the distinction, since aren't all adaptations genetic mutations?
Also, since I'm unfamiliar with any evolutionary debates regarding the biological evolution of color sensors, have any biologists hypothesized that perhaps the mutation stuck simply because it may have served as a useful redundancy against the occasional occurrence of a certain type of color-blindness? (just making an uneducated guess there).
Reverse Osmosis generates water that is super-saline (not dry salt). Under RCRA, highly concentrated salt-water (like the type that can be produced by mass amounts of reverse-osmosis) is legally classified as a kind of hazardous waste, and for good reason.
It wan't about whether cell phones cause a huge number of cancers. It's about whether cell phones cause cancer at all, even in small numbers.
