Apple has already done this - everything they make sells, and sells good. You mean to bash Apple, but really you're just praising them.

One word: TouchWiz

By your logic, the only "sane people" then are those that create their own phones. You're an idiot if you think Samsung's, or any other electronics maker's products, are any less cookie-cutter influenced than Apple's products.

Voicing an opinion that results in the game developer changing the title of one side of the fight is a far cry from making the game illegal. Medal of Honor was not banned and EA was not forced to remove "Taliban" from the game, they simply did so because they felt it was the right thing to do profitwise after hearing said opinions.

Well I guess it's a good thing they weren't studying texting then, hmm...

If cars only do one thing, then so do computers. Cars move, computers compute. The engine in your car, on the other hand, doesn't only perform one task. It provides power to turn the wheels, power to all of the electrical systems, power for steering, power for shifting, power for braking, power to keep you nice and cool (or warm), the list goes on and on.

An engine could be compared to a CPU. A cylinder could be compared to a core. More/larger cylinders provides more power (generally). More/faster cores provides more processing power. As an 8-cylinder engine is typically more powerful than a 4-cylinder engine, an 8-core CPU is more powerful than a 4-core CPU.

His analogy is flawed, but only because he is comparing one thing's component (a CPU core) to another thing as a whole (lawnmower engine) instead of its component (a cylinder). His analogy actually proves him to be dumb when it used properly.

Your example of pitiful uses doesn't make him right. Sure, there are few things that can take advantage of 8 cores right now. But if there were not 8 cores to take advantage of, there would never be anything made to take advantage of them.

Hey Qualcomm, if you're going to use an analogy to show how your competition is dumb, you may want to make sure the analogy you choose doesn't make you look even dumber. Of course you don't throw 8 engines together to make an 8-cylinder engine. You throw 8 cylinders together within a single engine. You don't throw 8 single-core cpus together to make an 8-core cpu. You throw 8 cores together within a single cpu.

It's Soulskill, what the fuck do you expect?

My Touchpad is nowhere near retirement. It runs JellyBean just fine. But I would still be all over a Surface at Touchpad fire sale prices.

Therein lies the problem.

There is no such thing as a trustworthy advertiser. Their profit is directly tied to ad views and they have repeatedly demonstrated that they have no respect for privacy or one's desire to not be force-fed their crap.

Exactly. They cannot legally bind you to their terms unless you explicitly indicate your acceptance of said terms. Simply opening the email does not legally bind you to their terms, just like viewing a website does not legally bind you to some terms of service hidden in the site footer.

Actually, their design appears to use the larger empty side of a typical USB slot for the SD card. Little is added to the height of the USB port while the width is increased since SD cards are wider than USB plugs. The drawings make it obvious that you won't be able to use both SD and USB at the same time.

Indeed. It scores right up there with off-topic replies.

Typo... 74K short. Although now it's only 72K short, seems it's working...

Now? The petition has been up since June 5th. I guess this is a last ditch effort to get signatures as it's over 44K short.

In the video, note that the "sharer" never let go of the game.
