Marketing, obviously. They were technically correct, but the figures used were not "median income" (or whatever it is called). TechCrunch has a table that shows the comparison between advertised and real earnings: https:/&#x

Yeah. It doesn't work on my Note 3. Samsung disabled copy & paste in the Emergency Call dialer. The author clearly didn't do his research, simply assuming that the vulnerability affects all Android devices: > But there&#x27

Since explots can be done through hardware, firmware and software, how is a GNU phone better (genuine question)?

The intro video already has a few red flags to show that he doesn't know what he's talking about (or he's not being honest): - He considers the 240x240 display an HD display - He claims the watch has 4GB of RAM His Kickstarte

I hate it when apps don't feel 'native' for the sake of cross-platform consistency. It's stupid.

4 MB. It's quite mindblowing to think that now a low-end laptop has 1,024 times more RAM.

In my opinion, the colours don't look professional or polished at all. It's like something that an amateur designer comes up with. I would have preferred the colour scheme of Flat UI: http://designmodo.github.io/Fl

EA on not allowing larger cities: "The system performance challenges we encountered would mean that the vast majority of our players wouldn’t be able to load, much less play with bigger cities." Seriously? If they had allowed offl

I worked on various projects in the region for more than a year. That has been my experience. I'm not white, if that matters.

I've only been to a few countries in the Middle East, so I can't generalise. But one thing common among these countries is the lack of warmth, sincerity and humility among the locals. It is one of the most unpleasant and hostile c

I'd say this is probably the first time it's done right on a popular computing device (to my knowledge). Previous fingerprint scanners always required the finger swipe gesture, which was frustratingly difficult to get right. Just

I wonder why they chose to support iOS and Windows Phone first and not Android.

Yet another entry in the list of missed opportunities. But I suppose it's easy to criticise people with the benefit of hindsight.

Why does the "Time Square, 2013" picture have markers for Hello Kitty, Elmo, Mario and Spider-man?

Hype and a huge cult following. These make the movie much easier to sell.

Even the updated article is completely wrong! "Microsoft Has 1 Million Server Datacenters" - Uh, that's not what Ballmer meant. But as a link bait, this article must have been super successful.

The Register article is much easier to read as a news piece, especially for people unfamiliar with encryption algorithms. Besides, the article includes links to more technical materials, including the project page should the reader want to

RE: TouchWiz UI - Did you know that you can use your own launcher and apply any theme you wish (legally; without even rooting the device). While I agree that it is not as polished as iOS, it can look great too. You can even make it look lik

Part of their pitch is that you don't have to carry your cables around (they did include 2 USB ports at the base just in case). But I guess their mistake is pitching this as an iDevice charger from the start (see their video; very heavy foc
