Your blanket statement about EVs is not correct.

Amen. My HP 48GX made the TI look like a toy.

Yeah, the usual sense of humor revolves around stuff like slapstick and wordplay. Sarcasm and satire aren't understood.

and then quickly recovers.
Right, but not without destroying millions of dollars in value, and sometimes much more than even that. And the SEC getting involved isn't a 'problem,' this is precisely what a regulatory authority is supposed to do.

Yup. 3 GHz quad-core POWER7, and every individual core in that architecture supports 4 threads. It's a beast of a CPU for a little game console.

I find your willingness to speculate about the motivations of a complete stranger based on no information adorable.

Actually it's more anti-Asian than anything else. You are forcing Asian students to work far harder than any of their peers to achieve the same results.

Is that a comment you can explain, or does your mommy not know you're using her ./ account again?

Nokia is STILL selling more Symbian devices that WinMo devices, so this isn't something we have to play guessing games about. People don't want WinMo, but lots of former Symbian users didn't purchase newer Symbian devices because Elop told them the platform had no future.

Have you ever used Belle? If you haven't, then from what position of knowledge are you speaking?

I bought an E6. I like it. It works, the battery lasts, the keyboard is nice and accurate. Nokia Belle is finally ready for prime time, which is ironic in the extreme.

Fire Elop. Immediately. Find the deepest trench in the ocean and throw him in, and then throw in the WinMo phones on top of him just to be sure.

Then take all of the lovely WinMo devices that Nokia developed, and put the OS from the N9 on some and Belle FP1 on others. Sort out Skype so video chat finally works. Finally, clean out all of the trash from the Nokia Store and get, by paying them directly if necessary, developers to build out the basics (e.g., a proper chat client integrated into the messaging app, GMail sync as a default setup option).

when Windows Vista was shiny and new and still a good OS.

So it was never written then? That doesn't make much sense.

What a content-free mess of an article that was. First, there's very little that iPhone or Android users can do that BB users can't do. What major functions are missing? "Social networking apps"? Like what? Which ones?

Second, if your main reason for wanting to switch phones is because people make fun of you, then it's highly likely that NONE of you actually know how to use your damned devices. My 6 year old Nokia can do most of the things that an iPhone can do.

As far as I can tell, the subtitles that Netflix uses for all of its Korean dramas, and for some of its anime, are also community-sourced. The twitter hashtags and IRC channel names subbed over the closing credits are kind of a give-away. I don't think this is stealing, I think it's awesome - I couldn't watch that stuff without the subtitles, and neither Netflix nor the original producers of most of that content have the time, money, or ability to do the job.

MBAs are so bad, as a lot, that we attorneys make fun of them. That can't be a good sign. And considering what they're supposedly trained to do, I've seen an MBA member of a negotiating team single-handedly destroy the entire negotiation through dogged use of the meaningless jargon that was apparently his main curriculum.

From what I can tell, the worst thing about MBA training is that it teaches you to bravely march into any situation, including technical fields and cultural contexts about which you know nothing, and try to take charge. To administrate, if you will. That's a disaster.

Gay marriage? You mean that gay marriage that's illegal in almost every state in the USA?

If extending more human rights to more people makes you uncomfortable, then I for one am happy that you fucked off and went home.
