I haven't used the NeXT email browser, but I think this was in it back in 1988, before Word. Ergo, Apple would own the patent.

There's a browser plugin/A for GMail at least.
I've had PGP for over 10 years, but I'm putting it aside and getting behind S/MIME.
S/MIME has great enterprise support, is built into mail clients like Outlook, OS X Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird, iPhones, iPads, and even has browser plugins for GMail. PGP has none of this, sadly.
That's why there are S/MIME browser plugins like Penango for GMail.
Well, the NYTimes reports proof that it was tested in Israel, which makes Russia unlikely.
Actually, most schools require an Official school email address. This guarantees the uptime from the faculty's point of view; you can't claim you never got the assignment or that you turned it in on time and nothing was there. It's also important for them from a liability standpoint; my Registrar will not send me any bills unless it's to my
The Justice and Development party is not pushing for a theocracy, they're less extreme than the Republican party in the US. Yes, they'd like their new democracies to reflect Islamic values, just as most Americans want the US to reflect Christian values. Heck, Tunisia's new electoral winners, the Ennahda party, won't even ban alcohol. You're falling for the FUD.
Dissident makes iPhone app about pro-democracy news, Syrian dictator responds by banning all iPhones. Also because it has cameras that can be used to post videos to the site.
Why is the troll getting modded up?
Look, the UN has made some glaring mistakes in the past, but overall, in 50 years it's averted several wars and organized the international community to usher in new public health practices and economic cooperation. It's peacekeeper efforts are successful most of the time, and its humanitarian assistance in places like Haiti saved plenty of lives. Net positives.
Aw come on, that was a pretty good movie. Maybe one of the best roles Morgan Freeman had was playing a Good Guy Muslim.
Bad caricature of Steve. Doesn't match reality.

So, you believe Apple is a bunch of fascists, and for that reason they killed one of their programming languages? Baloney. Steve Jobs was the one on stage at NeXT showing how even a child could write GUI apps. He made XCode free and bundled it with every boxed copy of OS X back in 2001 when Microsoft required a paid dev account.
The UN is not set up that way to be the pawn of superpowers. Granted, countries like the US can throw a lot of their weight around (e.g. see how they lobbied other countries to vote No or Abstain on recognizing a Palestinian state), but the majority of the members are democracies.
Sadly, people have been trying to lawyer all the "thou shalt not kill" out of religion for thousands of years.
That's an interesting guess, it's close. The CDC reports that about 2.4 million people die per year in the US.
On the eighth day, God created FORTRAN.
