Last time I looked, they were the only ones making laptops without those goddawful shiny glossy screens (been using Thinkpads since IBM's T21).
First thing I do is format and install the OS of my choice anyway. Not that that excuses preloading crapware on their machines.
I do need a new laptop though -- would love some recommendations for Linux-friendly brands.
This is not a chicken/egg problem. This is now a known scientific fact. The Beginning of the universe, according to this information, must have had an observer.

So, his father set up having local cops handcuff his kid? Did he use the Force to compel them to do that? Vulcan Mind meld? Regular old hypnotism? Regardless of whether this kid is a genius or a regular kid, the reactions of the school and the police were completely OTT.
Republicans don't have as much sway in the UK as you seem to think.
He really said "evildoers"? What is this, September 12th 2001?
If you don't follow the law you will get in trouble.
If you were to change the word driving to drilling or perhaps had pharmaceutical companies say "the FDA is subject to delays so we decided to sell out drug anyway" would Uber supporters say "thats ok - regulations are stupid!"
Unfortunately the answer is "probably"
There was one at the top of my street when I was a kid.
Love the OTT emotive designation --- so paying for content but not being happy about being given a piss-poor selection for the same cost is piracy now is it?
It is a very good way to stop anyone talking about what was actually in all the released internal documents though. While the media's been all over this stupid N. Korea angle, where are the reports about the actual scandals in the released documents?
"free from pornography, gambling, extreme violence and other content inappropriate for children"
And I want a user friendly internet, free from governments, corporations, extreme advertising and other content inappropriate for ANYONE.
Cameron, please, for sanity's sake: Stop talking. Or, better, stop breathing.
Sure wish I had some mod points to give you today.
And he references John Maynard Smith's work outlined in Evolution and the Theory of Games. (A good read if you're interested.)
Seriously, the rush to electronic voting after the 2000 Presidential election was just a bad idea all the way around -- and, frankly, most IT people with any experience were saying so. It is vastly, vastly harder to change physical media than to change electronics.
Which of course nicely, nicely explains the rush to electronic voting after the 2000 Presidential election.
That award has pretty much 0 to do with real achievement. It is a political power play. Up until Obama got the peace prize I though otherwise. How can you get the prize for having not DONE anything... At least at this point they could point at something and give him one...
You're confusing the Nobel Peace prize, which is as you say political in nature (interesting you picked on the Obama prize, stupid as it was, but missed Henry Kissinger's peace prize, is certainly ridiculous) with the Nobel prizes for scientific merit.
"I think the carrot infinitely more fascinating than the geranium. The carrot has mystery. Flowers are essentially tarts. Prostitutes for the bees. There is, you'll agree, a certain 'je ne sais quoi' oh so very special about a firm, young carrot."

Real Programs don't use shared text. Otherwise, how can they use functions for scratch space after they are finished calling them?
