People don't want to have to root a device to work around usability issues. That's why iOS devices are so popular, out of the box they just work (for the most part).

I wish they'd depict the y-axis starting at 0 instead of 450, which makes the decline seem worst than it is. Also -1 for disabling zoom on mobile devices.

Good luck with that. Just look at home many crappy mobile "optimized" sites are out there.

I could not agree more. Let the user decide if they want fullscreen. We already have to put up with disabled zoom, mobile "optimized" site with missing content, and annoying animations.

I have yet to see a practical solution that provides separation between UAV and manned aircraft. All flights under VFR are responsible for their own separation by way of see-and-be-seen. I have yet to see a UAV that can visually recognize a

T-Mobile's free 200MB/month for tablets is great, especially for text and email on the go. Side note: nytimes's website on mobile is totally annoying. No pinchzoom and double tap mucks with the font size. Just as we had Flash

I am using Chrome on iOS and I do not see such a setting. Furthermore, I fail to see the advantage of 0 delay on a mostly textual page. Based on the upvotes many agree with me.

What an annoying website. I can't pinchzoom. When I double tab, it (after a pause) changes font size. JavaScript is becoming the new Flash, an enabler of annoying user experience.
