No.
Not application backwards compatibility. Apple does not control that.
I'm talking about upgrading handsets to new OSes. Who does better than Apple?
"A lot of small publishing/design houses got burned in the transition from OS9 to OSX."
Kay. From my perspective as a user, it was pretty awesome.
Why is this so important to you? Seriously. Why do you care?
Good point. And, for my money, I prefer Apple's approach to Android's. We may get to the point where screens are high enough resolution I don't care about pixel accuracy, but we're not there quite yet.
Isn't it cool that there are several competing options in the market? I think that's a win, don't you?
Which is the phone manufacturer that has a better record of backwards OS compatibility than Apple?
I'm curious.
"it means China and other countries not covered improve their own standard of living (by emitting GHGs like there's no tomorrow) at our expense"
What do you propose to do about that?
Came for the Strangelove reference; left satisfied.
Remember when Newt Gingrich was so roundly ridiculed for wanting to buy laptops for schoolkids?
I think he earned greater ridicule for his plan to have children earn their free lunch by sweeping and mopping the schools.
If the realistic alternatives are: Microsoft buys Nokia and Nokia dies they pick Microsoft.
Don't underestimate the ability of bureaucrats and others in power to bite off their noses to spite their faces.
we used to run around the school yard with wood sticks and make pew pew pew at schoolmates and - oh god -.even towards teachers.
Obviously we had to turn all out to be serial psychotic killers that shot everyone out our schools.
Worse than that: you became a
Needs moar 'Ride of the Valkyries'. SRSLY.
Football teams all over Europe use international players - iirc, the premiership is about 1/3 English, the rest are foreign. And that does include Africa, and every other continent on the earth. Doesn't mean we call it the world anything though. Doing so for a club competition would seem a little obtuse, and arrogant.
I guess it's up to you what you call your club competitions.
It's not possible to not convict innocent people. There are always going to be outlier cases in which the person is innocent, but all the evidence points to them.
This is shown by the phrase "beyond reasonable doubt". It's not "beyond any doubt". There can still be a possibility that the person was innocent, and you should still convict in our current legal system. You may not like it, but that's how every legal system basically works.
Why is this modded up? It's nothing to do with the story. In England, just about every single city is on the coast, so that's not relevant. We also know about flash floods too, which, due to our climate, occur relatively regularly. Only last fortnight or so, we had flood warnings near where I live. If you find a house in the UK that's not at risk of flooding, it's on top of a hill.
I've got a big dog, too... a large munsterlander, 40kg. Unfortunately, he's the biggest wuss you'll ever meet. Burglars don't know that, though, and he's got a good bark, if he even notices anyone has arrived.
Not an IETF list.
