Then you probably want to use it with some local data so you don't rack up huge bill. One Hadoop job on the whole dataset costs at least like $200, and that's for simple stuff.

What have they lied about? Sure, you're maybe upset how they removed OtherOS from PS3 after hackers started abusing it, but that doesn't make them liars. You might want to stick to truth if you have some point to make.

That you don't need to run Android, a product made by the largest advertising and datamining house on planet?

It is Google's fault. They just don't want to responsibility (ie., don't spy on kids activity) that comes with it, but they're still advertising such use. They just bury that fact in terms of service not to get in trouble.

So if they want something premade, why would they choose Linux instead of OSX or Windows? What else than customization, tweakability and programming the system does Linux offer over those two? It's a good question to ask, especially for Gnome/KDE/Ubuntu/Linux developers if they want Linux to become mainstream.

I think their site is actually quite usable. Text area is not too wide, there's related news easily displayed and it shows other content from the site too. The inner pages are quite long and putting that everything on one page would be ridiculous.

You yourself maybe want to read print version only, but most users don't. It's also not user friendly for web format.

But Linux is open. Fork it and do it yourself! Given the ability, pffft.

What the hell showering with gays has to do with anything? You think they're going to rape you or something, regardless of if they're interested in you or even think you look nice? It doesn't work like that. Or could you not control yourself if you were showering with women? Because if that's the case, you have a serious problem.

Frankly, I view abortion, separation of church and state and gay (and shemale) rights as more important than copyright stuff. So no, even if I were US citizen, I would not vote for him.

Same goes for Opera, which is extremely popular in Russia and CIS countries and actually beats any other browser. It has like 50% market share in some countries. http://my.opera.com/dstorey/blog/2009/03/16/a-look-at-desktop-market-share-cis-edition

But you still cannot block adware and spyware in Opera. There is not easy way to block specific domains or urls.

Yes, they are. It even says so in the article, but someone just dedicated to copypaste one really specific sentence from it to Slashdot. IE still has 50% market share, while Chrome has 25%.

It's just stupid comparison. Chrome automatically updates all old versions to their newest one while IE doesn't. This compares two exact versions, Chrome 15 and IE8. If you compare just browsers, IE is still easily number one at 50%, while Chrome has 25%.

As will the Asian investors and companies while they reap more profits and will soon dominate the world.

US is now officially destination country for cheap outsourcing.
