I haven't played with a BB10, but this is exactly how Palm WebOS behaves and it is, indeed, fantastic. Fat lot of good it did them when few developers would write apps for the platform.

Saying "...and a Facebook app for Android users" is the same as saying "Android is not supported". Seriously, I have no interest in using Facebook for anything, let alone as an interface to a third-party.

Actually, according to the tech note, it's a definition update, not a firmware update. Most Barracuda devices install definition updates automatically and with zero downtime.

...why everything tastes like blue.

True, but it's amazingly easy to deal with that by adding the phrase "But they have a history of fixing vulnerabilities quickly whenever they are discovered." Unfortunately, Oracle can't seem to do this.

It's not just that. It's that there are so many different systems out there, and even with standards for treatment and diagnosis codes getting systems to talk to each other can be a major challenge. Frequently, even between different departments in the same hospital, you'll find different systems. You'll see care givers re-entering the same information into each one.

Stop voting for the prosecutors who lack integrity. I blame voters who don't pay any attention to the candidates for whom they vote. They vote for whichever name sounds the best.

If he was charged with a crime directly related to that video and it somehow got deleted while in police custody, how is that not tampering with evidence?

It doesn't matter. Most of the time, the hardware manufacturers don't print the rated speeds on the cables (and usually don't even print the standard - USB 2.0, USB 3.0, etc.). They just use their own marketing lingo that generally has no bearing on the standard whatsoever. It's difficult (at best) to compare apples-to-apples when buying a simple USB cable.

I stopped buying Sony several years ago for this and other reasons. I just laugh when I see them pull more of this crap now.

If the kids were capable of drugging their parents (and the parents had a home drug test kit handy), I'm guessing this is not the first time they've butted heads. Maybe they decided it was time for a little tough love.

Mobility might be an issue with such large, heavy helmets, but that's really a problem for marketing, not engineering.

I don't understand why they would have to wrap the whole ship in a 6-foot thick lead shield. That's incredibly inefficient. Just make 6-foot thick lead helmets instead. It's a lot cheaper and their brains will still be protected from the killer brain rays.

So, the best response you could come up with is an ad hominem attack and profanity? Nice.

Or it's a list of prospective homeowners with property worth stealing. Or a list of people who are trying to hide from abusive exes who got gun permits to protect themselves. Why is the list of permit holders anybody else's business?
