Your culture is a culture of guns. You don't even need to grow up about it if you just stop letting people shoot at each other all day long.

Erm... Foxxconn was around LOOOONG before iPhones were.
So you mean it has things like a background, icons, and a screen you interact with by touching it? FFS would you also like a patent for those rounded edges?
You're exactly right. This can probably be blamed more for the non-arrival of that 'Linux Heyday' we keep pretending is arriving than anything else.
UX has only ever made software _LESS_ usable. Good luck if you go down that road.
The ribbon and metro were undoubtedly the work of 'UX' people. I've long held that these people have no place in our industry and just make everything fucking suck for everyone else.
so that the society becomes wealthy due to absence of government in free market capitalistic economy
I nearly fell off my chair laughing. The 1800s called, they want their ideals back.
Now to ensure that every high-school age child in America gets one!
The original question (in my filtered view) was asking whether you'd be happy with China demanding information stored on US Microsoft servers.
If you're saying that question is hypothetical because China isn't the US then I disagree. Microsoft does business in China. The Chinese government could assert that its control over that data also extends to the US, in exactly the same way as has occurred here.
I don't think people would be anywhere near as comfortable with that.
That's right, because in 1994 law enforcement was infallible.
That's a stupid response. The child most likely didn't give consent to be shot either.
Then again if this story is from the US, 90% of your kids get shot before reaching adulthood, don't they?
Thanks guys but would you fucking stop now? First you decide locked-in un-upgradeably consoles are cool. Then you decide DRM-laden games are cool.
Now you're going to make the industry think we all want to rent games ad-inifinitum. For fuck's sake STOP!!!
I sometimes like to play my games from 10 years ago. Will you be able to do that? FFS...
Hahahah laughing at you so hard now it hurts. I for one welcome "Jobi".
Copyright is not only stealing, it's terrorism. Do try to keep up.
Something to do with that period where Google+ thought it could upload my photos without asking. Google+ is just distancing itself from what is now no-doubt the largest repository of kiddy porn on the internet.
Today is a good day for information-gathering. Read someone else's mail file.
