Oh? You're sure about that? That's a pretty big claim to make without presenting any evidence (or even any reasoning)

That's what I just said?

It's not self-aggrandizing when other people are doing the aggrandizing.

Oh look, more "X but on a Y!" patents. So innovative.

AFAIK an app could execute binaries that it packages. They just execute within that user's context. It doesn't have to be done via the JVM.

You don't even need to do the whole device. Apps run as their own user, so all you need to do is grab files owned by that user.

The only way around this is for an app to use 'su' to escalate it's privileges, which requires a rooted device.

I've seen multiple-kilobyte posts before. Slashdot truncates it on initial display with a 'read more' link appended to the end, that shows the full post.

Avoid United while you're at it. I hear they break guitars.

... in a fire? Pretty please?

... and yet they thought "key lime pie" was too unfamiliar?

Well played, Godfather... Well played...

Perfect example of patents stifling progress instead of encouraging it.

There is. Google would have told you in 5 seconds or less.

No, it is not.

If you're resistant to clicking the link, it's a funny nickname for koalas, implying that they are (as a joke, because they are not) vicious horror-movie terrors that ambush unsuspecting tourists by dropping on to them from the canopy.

Don't for get the deists, who (from my understanding) believe there is some kind of higher power but nothing more specific than that. Kind of like agnostic-lite.

Some may consider this lazy or shallow - but I reply with this question: don't you think it's a little presumptuous of you to claim to have any kind of understanding of a power that is, by definition, beyond your comprehension?
