Are you kidding? You used to be able to jailbreak iOS; now it's nigh-on impossible. Isn't that enough of an indication as to where the platform's headed? As far as OSX goes, the fact that it now prevents applications which

Pretty sure that's not what he's saying; nice strawman, though.

It seems like the entire planet is headed inexorably toward a locked-down, oppressed future, both online and off.

To be fair, Apple's hardware lately has been unimpressive to me (a longtime Apple buyer) and their increasingly locked-down, inflexible software is calling any future purchases into doubt, too.

I think a non-anemic amount of memory is the most important feature lacking in the Air. I often find my 4GB 2011 Air chugging and breaking a sweat swapping to "disk" simply because I've had Firefox open for too long. Would

> Given the circumstances, why would the USAF not bid out the launches? Maybe the bidding process was so corrupt and/or pointless that they just did away with it entirely.

Considering how US government pensions are administered, I am not at all surprised other branches of government are using antediluvian tech. http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/national/2014/03/22/sinkh

That's cool; I just pirate everything anyway. (Don't worry, I live in Australia, where it's morally justifiable and usually the only option.)

Find an old pair of Sennheiser HD-580s. They were so good they un-discontinued them. Been using the same pair since 1999, with the same cable they came with (apparently the cable can be problematic.)

Uh, they always have been. Fantastic straw-man, though!!

It always worries me when a case that's even remotely technical makes it to the Supreme Court. Sometimes it feels like trying to teach a dog a card trick.

Settlement seems low. Looks like every company involved ended up saving quite a bit of money, after all is said and done, with this little salary racket they had going.

As the article mentions, there's no real need for these search powers, when the phone can simply be turned off or physically taken out of range of reception to prevent it from being wiped. The feds have yet to prove this is even a rea

This is nice to see. SSD has gotten ridiculously cheap lately.

Apparently this is all supposed to sort itself out by the 18th of this month -- that's the deadline they've given for account closures.

Gonna be a nice quick plunge down to the low $200s. I feel bad for anyone who bought a lot around $800 -- you'll be waiting months to recoup that investment.

At this point with btc volatility being what it is today, you could save or lose 10% just by standing in line.

Tamiflu isn't a vaccine; it's an antiviral. You take it when you already have flu symptoms.

Pretty horrible comment, honestly. Seems like a bunch of idle speculation slathered in a good helping of parochialism.

I'm guessing this suit will be dismissed with prejudice. Dude seems like a real lying scumbag with an axe to grind.

Jesus. This is what happens when a severely narcissistic prima-donna runs a major project. Shocking and arrogant behavior.

Your argument is absolutely absurd. Were black people who fought against separate-but-equal segregation policies "bullies" to you, too?

Let them, then. I'm just calling it how I see it. Anyone who says "homosexual acts should be banned" is either trolling or they're a horrifying throwback of a human being. Either way, they're an asshole.

Sorry, but "free speech" really only applies when the government gets involved in regulating it. Read the Constitution sometime. He could just as easily have been ousted from his role for wearing the wrong color shirt to work, if

And the people describing his actions to help get gay marriage banned in California as merely "an opinion" that should be respected and treated as "free speech" are just laughably wrong.

This is not a free speech issue. I wish people would stop making that mistake. A private company can fire anyone they want in California for whatever reason they want.

This has absolutely fuck-all to do with free speech; the government is not involved in this issue at all. People really need to have a better understanding of constitutional issues and applicability before they start running their mouth abo
