The question is: why make a better Android machine, when the applications are so needlessly weak?

The only word processor on Android that can make facing quotes, isn't even really native: Androoffice.
I am growing tired of seeing blurry text at the bottom of the page form while I surf.

No, I want to use SD cards for storing data. It's not application data, it's mine!!!

With 2GB of memory, you should be able to paint/edit images that are 3x4 feet @300dpi, but with most paint programs and editors, you couldn't edit an image from a $500 Nikon D3200. Most editors are limited to 2048 or 4096 images because the use the GPU for rendering. The only large image editor I have seen is Cloverpaint, and well, it's not quite the user interface I want.

Blah-blah application needs to read your penis or breast size.

Social media will quickly be your company's undoing as no one will want to live in place where they are forced to pay for a crippled internet as a condition of living in one of your properties. There will quickly be expensive lawsuits essentially forcing your company to decouple your internet service from the rent and making it optional. I would simply waggle my middle finger at your company and find a different place to live.

The causes of obesity are a multitude of factors. This article makes an overly simplistic suggestion that sleeping in a darker room will magically help one shed weight. As someone that has lost over a hundred pounds, I'll tell you this: it is making good food choices, counting calories, and getting physical activity. Certainly adequate rest is helpful but there is no credible study to suggest that someone that is doing these things yet doesn't get enough sleep is obese.

In almost every way The National Security Organization is a lawless, limitless, overreaching mistake, with no applied checks and balanves. The NSA exemplifies the start of what can go wrong.

It's sad that the open source alternatives are just not progressing, nor popular.

So, skype is known NSA hacked program made by a company that patented video spying.

I find it funny how the US government accused Huawei and ZTE of building in backdoor access while engaging in the exact same practice. I don't doubt that they do, they just haven't been caught red-handed. Pun full intended. I'm guessing that even if Obama were to issue an executive order halting the process, it would be largely for show. The actions will continue under renewed secrecy.

There's no way to add DRM to anything without compromising security.

Mozilla is not taking privacy seriously, lately.
Cache clear on Firefox does not really seem clear the cache.
There is no way to clear the "Top Sites" in Firefox Mobile.
There is no built in way clear on exit in Mozilla Mobile.

When you think of things that make static, cling wrap, the belt of a Van de Graaff generator both seem to violate the friction idea. We have contact and surface area.

At a job, I pulled fiberglass parts from molds, a situation where you often have very little friction, but a whole lot of surface area, and dielectric materials like glass rods, polyester and epoxy resin. The parts wouldn't come out of the waxed and PVA'ed molds if there was a lot of friction.

When I pulled the parts from the molds, I converted the mechanical energy into electrostatic energy. The problem is: if an electrostatic potential existed in the parts to begin with, separating the plates should diminish it, because if you squish a capacitor the charge is supposed to increase. So, in inverse must be true, right?

So maybe this happens. Let's assume that the charge on the part and mold are neutral, that there is no potential difference or electrostatic field. When I was pull the part from the mold, I apply work that separate plates on a capacitor, with very little static charge, but I am guessing that it does create a small amount of negative potential, which is multiplied as I peel the two surfaces. Perhaps also, some current may flow along the sheet I am pulling through the dielectric. Perhaps those polarizing properties of it being a dielectric allow some current flow, just as capacitors leak

The part and the mold are connected at one end, and in the state of separating at another. I wish I could measure the static field just as the part comes from the mold.

Things like nuclear war have came up before, and their usually attributed to human error.

We really need a third party - I'm sick of both of the Republicans and Democrats. They both suck!!

I hope our government isn't so stupid as to let them trademark FreeSync, as FreeFileSync has been around for years.

BTW, if there is any question I hearby trademark FreeFileSync(TM), and give all rights to the open source file syncronization program: http://sourceforge.net/project...

Anyone will be found guilty whenever we see fit.

I validate my pathetic existence by fighting ignorance.

More girls are raped than boys, so it would seem that more pedophiles are heterosexual.
