Golf is about getting your balls into the hole in as few strokes as possible. It's as simple as that.

I'm not a golf guy, but I can appreciate that the original game is fine the way it is. Seriously, 15-inch holes aren't going to magically enable you to get a hole-in-one. The challenge of hitting the traditional hole is something I respect; making it feel like I have training wheels on to pander to me is just going to alienate me further. I think most prefer things tight, not loose. You have to feel like you've succeeded.

No, their iMessage app will resort to traditional SMS to send the message. No lock-in. This is a non-story, and only serves Samsung for the plug.

Except that he says he developed lung disease even after he quit smoking 30 years ago. RTFA and don't try to be too clever.

I have sustained, symmetrical throughput of 50Mbp/s, no data cap, and pay about $60 per month. Half the population of the US, so it would seem that numbers aren't the problem. Hmm.

You blame him for the health insurance providers taking the opportunity to use him as a whipping boy and take out their aggravation that their golden goose isn't looking too healthy?

In other news, Reagan said that trickle-down economics would work, and George W. showed up on an aircraft carrier claiming victory over a war that wasn't over yet, which we started because of falsified intel. Clinton said he didn't have sex with that woman, either.

Hispanics represent the biggest slice of the poor class nowadays. Also, you suggested that blacks are more likely to be extremely rich or extremely poor, which I don't see much proof of (the former).

I'm an animator and video editor and need the wider aspect ratio to get my work done. And if I'm writing or programming, the extra space is good for reference material windows.

Your theory flies in the face of history. Spam now represents the majority of email sent and they only need a fraction of a percent in return in order to reap a significant reward to justify their efforts. This particular clever exploit has been around how long undetected? And all they have to do is take the same code and inject it into the next extension they buy, or roll out. This is even better than spam.

Google's main reason for getting involved in this one is that it's leeching off of their core business. I guarantee that's not something they'll let slide.

They aren't malcontents, they're clever programmers who've figured out how to make a lot of money quickly.

It would only work if they got the keys that only the designers at the NSA would know. However, this does show how back doors are self-defeating.
