I'd be betting on a big manufacturer buying them instead, such as Samsung, to start their own phone line loosely based on android.

So basically it's an attempt to stack overhead costs in a way that would make electric car look bad.

How original. As you obviously cannot do the same with the actual burning process, you try to throw shit hoping some will stick.

Hint: Dollar costs do not reflect efficiency nor pollution/CO2 emissions.

No, I'll just keep using seven wondering how long microsoft can keep it up.

You may call me "English as a third language". How many languages do you speak on this level?

Hate? I was ridiculing your statement, not hating on it.

No need to hate on someone hopeless enough to pimp out windows 8 over windows 7. You can only either ridicule or pity such a person, and I'm not nice enough of a person to just pity.

Even the old coal plants from 50s are far more efficient than best available automotive ICUs. Reason lies in the core design issues and economics of scale.

No, it has less than 10% common parts. For rather obvious reasons too. The damn thing is bigger, which means everything except for frontal assembly needs to be sized up.

All of these are minor evolutionary upgrades. Most of ones you listed can be summed up under "bigger aircraft" (more payload hardpoints, more fuel, bigger wing surface...) Avionics upgrades have been retroactively applied to C/D models.

Let me help you here. It's not about ground or suitability. The roads, like the old Turku-Helsinki road here in Finland on high speed portions near cities curve left and right and contain almost no straight sections. It's all geometrically even curves.

It's about as "based on terrain" as North African borders.

The main source of despots in Latin America has been US, which used despots to keep countries in severe poverty while it's multinationals shipped profits to US.

"Bolivarian socialism" has evolved to prevent this exploitation, and succeeded in increasing quality of life in the region significantly. Obviously at the cost of profits for multinationals.

F-18 E/F (aka super hornet) mainly differs from C/D varians (normal hornet) in size. It's the same air frame with increased size, enabling it to carry more load.
It's reason for existence is in the cancelled naval F-22 variant, which meant that US Navy needed replacement for F-14s quickly. F-18 C/D didn't have the size to carry enough fuel for the maritime patrol tasks, so size was increased in E/F variant, which enabled it to carry more fuel and weapons.

Calling it a "whole new beast" is a bold faced lie. It's the same airframe that was enlarged with minor evolutionary upgrades at best.

Fun detail: our large intercity older roads are actually not that straight for most part, as they are intended to be repairable after B-52/TU-95 does a carpet bombing run. Large roads tend to slightly curve back and forth, so carpet bombing from a bomber flying in a straight line would miss most of its load. This makes road repairs much easier.

Side roads on the other hand are often designed to be functional as small air strips, so they are straight.

There are companies on android OEM market that are actually getting cyanogenmod as their official ROM. I recall some oppo phones shipping with it as default.

"Seems snappier" is the hipster language for "can't really tell the difference but I need to pimp my favorite crap anyway".

I'm a fan of "follow the money" as well as "look for motives" principles. I'm also an avid fan of history and a ratio of sharlatans vs one of geniuses is a very bad one in human history.

As a result, assumption that he indeed has discovered some reason why modern physics are flawed and exploited the principle for power generation raises several questions:
1. Why is there no science behind it published anywhere? He'd be looking at Nobel and wide recognition at the very least with all the money that follows patenting application of said laws. This is billions in money and being widely hailed as savior of humanity at the very least.
2. If "dirty power" lobby is indeed against his invention, why hasn't it bought him out to silence him yet? He's stringing some clients for millions as opposed to billions he could be taking for his silence or technology licensing.
