As far as I know Xamarin is the company behind the already open source mono and the only Xamarin branded product I know of is Xamarin studio which is just a proprietary monodevelop. So I too would like to know what is Xamarin, why is this a big deal, and why should I care?

Nope all you get is those that freely opt in to this program. If there is no twitch.tv blame twitch not T-mobile.

Forgot link http://www.engadget.com/2007/0... so TFA is wrong, it doesn't even beat records for and intel processor it literally is just a new skylake record.

The skylake broke the record for OCing a skylake CPU, big whoop.

B-b-but that's what they all say........

You can't have unlimited even with no throttling you will always be limited by the speed. I find it kind of weird how they tie data caps to speeds but not speeds to data caps. My home internet is 75 Mbs but does that mean I can use 75 Mbs 24/7? No. Do these wireless providers hard cap you? No. If anything I think this throttling is much more fair and truthful than advertising speeds with caps.

It's kind of interesting the CPU built on a larger process is faster, cooler, and has less power draw.

I just had a crazy thought, what if we provided alternate path to prevent crime before it happens? Rather than giving the incarcerated a free higher education our money should be spent giving the poor and so called "at risk" a higher education. Don't get me wrong I'd love to see everyone, including the incarcerated, get a free education but why should criminals get it above all else? Giving a free education to those in prison is treating the symptom not the cause.

They caused the TNT to explode by using C4, if they would have cut the wires instead of using explosives on a bomb it would have worked.

Exactly! You cut them all simultaneously and the bomb won't go off.

Didn't Trump say he could finance his whole campaign himself?

Sorry, I was mistaken you don't have to turn it in, which begs the question why is this such a big deal? This whole thing is almost like a credit card only INTEREST FREE!

Except you are pretty much paying the full price of the phone, with a car you usually pay around 250 * 24 = 6000 of a 20000 or more car. I can't see leasing if you have to pay the full price only to have the privilege of turing it in in a year or two. Apple is probably going to make cash hand over fist with this because people will be basically buying the phone only to give it back to apple for free so they can refurbish and resell it.

Not sure you can get cheaper than the mentioned chromebooks, even if there were a good 20 dollar option you'd still need a keyboard, mouse and monitor at minimum.

Pretty much. If I was rich and could still gain ridiculous amounts of wealth while giving billions away why wouldn't I? I mean you are buying good tons of good will while losing nothing, in fact you are still gaining albeit a little more slowly.
