The Joint Photographic Experts Group probably had a hand in this too.

More of a Progress Quest fan. No sense learning all those commands when the game can do it for you.

Most non-Samsung phones have batteries that are not accessible, including the Nexus 5, most LG, most Motos, and tons of others. Many Samsung owner I know don't know they can replace their battery also. Most don't know the difference between a SIM and MicroSD card either.

At the time I was trying Yammer out it did not have support for animated GIFs. If it did I'd probably be able to get 99% of my job done by reducing email server's load of animated deliciousness.

+9001 Funny.

downloadable content. Day one downloadable content is the real cancer where you don't get the whole game unless you pay extra.

timothy's best posts are dupes. It's the original stuff that you need to watch out for.

For the $50 promotional advertising credit I got with my dog's Facebook he pulled down 7,500 fans. Granted he is not a brand, but there is some effectiveness with them. I personally haven't used Facebook outside of the pages (which are naturally ad free), so I can't testify to the experience for those who do. I don't want to keep tabs on people, but Squinky demands fame.

The company's name is MICROS Systems, Inc.. Not that bad a job butchering it really by omitting the Inc.

It's pretty amazing news really when you think that there are only a dozen or so other companies that are better liked and have better offerings doing the same thing for free.
In all seriousness though at $7 a month for 1 TB and Office 365 the people who still insist on Microsoft Office are getting a pretty good deal compared to $10 a month for 1 TB and Google Apps. I personally prefer Google Apps over Microsoft Office and prefer not having to use either in general, but the interoperability between other people still stuck in Office is undeniable. A few phone calls from people who use Office everyday but have no clue what they are doing who struggle with files from Google Docs makes having a copy around worth it.

No way. Apple left them for dead when they leaked new iPods. They can kiss Apple's business goodbye very soon unless they have something important patent wise that precludes them from doing so.

It not working takes out the incentive to moderate and log in, though.

I constantly have people refer to my Moto X as an iPhone and tell me that it's natural for me to use an iPhone since I work on a lot of Macs. I don't think the Slashdot crowd are the type to get duped, but I can recount tons of people who went in for iPhones and were sold on Galaxy S3 by Verizon sales critters. I don't think really either is going to make for a better life more than the next. You can play Angry Birds while you poop with either equally effectively.
