How many other countries or surrogates thereof did the same for any candidate? Or funneled contributions to campaigns?
I seem to remember a China/Clinton issue way back when.
If true it doesnt seem like anything new.
I've had this happen a lot.
One guy gave it to his new employer - had anice conversation with them.
Some one tried to sign up some kind of adult ed autmotive repair class in Scotland. I had to let them know that the commute would be prohibitive.
I was invited to a family christmas party. Who give family a bogus address?
It goes on and on. Used to bother me a lot but lately I have treated it as cheap entertainment.
Razr v3 was the best phone I've ever had - great form and function.
Light, durable, easy to carry, a nice feel in your hand. Just a nice piece of engineering.
I haven't used it in years but its still sitting here ready to go - it makes me question my move to other devices, and makes me a bit sad, every time I catch sight of it.
"With Lumia sales on the decline and Microsoft's plan to not produce a large amount of handsets, it's clear we're witnessing the end of Windows Phone. Rumors suggest Microsoft is developing a Surface Phone, but it has to make it to the market first. Windows Phone has long been in decline and its app situation is only getting worse. With a lack of hardware, lack of sales, and less than 2 percent market share, it's time to call it: Windows Phone is dead. "
Now this news should not be surprising to anyone who has watched the slow decline of Windows Phone.
Last December, in an article on Windows10update.com, Onuora Amobi also wrote off the platform.
In this case, his analysis was based on the nonconformity of the Microsoft user interface to Apple and Android's widely adopted aesthetic appeal.
He said the following:
"I believe Windows Phone is dead. Kaput. Finished. Over. Done. I’ve said this ad nauseam but it bears repeating. When Windows 8 started going south, it was pretty clear what the issue was – users didn’t like the interface. Windows 10 is successful in part because it’s a return to Windows 7 in many ways and that’s what made the consumers happy. One of the definitions of insanity is “doing the same thing over and over again but expecting a different result”. This is exactly what Microsoft is doing and it’s insane. Over 90% of Microsoft’s desired audience like the look and feel of iPhones and Android devices. They do – it’s not good or bad – it just is what it is. They spend their money on those two user interfaces."
What do you guys think?
Is there hope for the Windows 10 platform?
The ad industry has been around for a long time. It survived just fine with out knowing all kinds of info about everyone that happened to access a venue they occupied. They need to return to a methodology where they actually select the proper place to run their ads and pay for a period of exposure. The whole pay per impression/click concept is a large part of what has led us to where we are today. The industry has over reached what most people find as acceptable behavior and its past time for a correction. Sadly the DNT efforts aren't going to be successful unless there are some teeth somewhere.
oh, wait, that's a kde thing... I forget, is that evil or not now?
Why did the Roman Empire collapse? What is the Latin for office automation?
