Expansys is a good source for acquiring non-US phones that I've used once or twice in the past. A bit expensive at times, but has a wide selection of unlocked phones that carriers in the US don't sell

The goal, in terms of business model, seems pretty obvious - get/keep people to use Microsoft services and don't lose any more of the low end to Android. While Facebook and Opera Mini are built-in, so are Bing Search and MSN Weath

I'm surprised you needed just one off-duty officer at the 3rd and Pine location. I've eaten there a couple of times and it's quite the experience. Was it still known as Crackdonalds back then? I can't imagine meth was

I know you can't say anything, but I'm guessing that there's a nonzero chance that the guy who made the hardware decisions is a friend of the guy who sold the hardware.

The following won't break (at least not in the bad way), I don't think: $sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT document FROM table WHERE tag=? AND security_level=?"); $sth->bind_param(1,foo()); $sth->bind_

Type in the name is overkill for int or char, but it's useful when you've got multiple levels of pointers. ppszName is a pointer to a pointer to a null-terminated string, whereas pbFoo is a pointer to a byte-array. Both of these a

To be fair, if his answer was "yeah, we made millions", there would be more than a small handful of entities trying to seize those assets.

That's not the worst of it - the criminal complaint mentions that the server was registered to the email address blake@benthall.net. If that's not a giant "hey, feds, come and get me", I don't know what is. It also

There is a fantastic 2010 blogpost[1] from the Visual Studio Languages Product Manager that explains the rationale for supporting VB.NET as well as C#, as well as the strategy for doing so. Of interest: he states that both languages have (h

I meant that Reddit handles the manufacturing, so there's less risk than with Kickstarter, where the creator also does manufacturing. It's like more like Teespring or Quirky than like Kickstarter or IndieGoGo From https:/&#x

Looks nice, but the 1-year warranty is a huge dealbreaker. If I'm going to be spending $1900 on a PC, it had better be guaranteed to last longer than that.

Looks more like a Teespring-type thing than a Kickstarter-type thing, which should mitigate this quite a bit

Great idea, but seems like there's a bug on your demo page - if I click "Add Extras" before selecting a plan, I can't go back to "Select Your Plan" (clicking it doesn't work)

According to what I've read about WebRTC 1.1 (which, admittedly, isn't as much as I'd like), it sounds like it's backwards-compatible with 1.0. What was said at Google I/O (as quoted by CNET) seems to imply as much

I personally use Lenovo laptops (Yoga 2 at home, Thinkpads at work) and have had good experiences. A word of caution if you're planning on installing Linux - there's a known issue with the ACPI driver for certain models that will

Don't be a dick. I was asking a legitimate question because I was curious about the research methodology and, while the study linked in the article had a price tag of $22, the person I replied to seemed to have access to it. Thanks for

Did they describe how they controlled for behavioral habits? It seems like, as a group, the type of people who would drink large amounts of sugary soda would be less likely to make healthy behavioral choices in other aspects of their life,

I wouldn't be surprised if Google acquired Uber or Lyft within the next few years. The massive amount of data one of those companies can provide would beneficial enough to Google to justify the purchase - mapping data for Google maps,

I make use of in-store pickup options from time to time - sometimes it's nice to get your hands on your order the same day - order it at 7pm, have it by 8pm. What it comes down to for me is, I don't hate going to the store, I hate

Did I miss the part where they reviewed the actual phone features - call quality, address book, text messaging, etc - or did Ars forget that they were actually reviewing a smart phone ?

Okay, NSA, so how about some transparency to clear up these supposed "inaccuracies"? Nobody believes you if you just deny something without providing evidence to back it up.

I wouldn't think so, as there's more than likely enough medical/biological basis for women to require more time. For example, 99.9999% of men are unable to breastfeed a baby, even if they do stay home.

Love the idea, but it seems a bit rough around the edges right now. Some thoughts: * It's unclear from your site what your target audience is. It feels almost like it's targeted more at developers than entrepreneurs. You should make it clea

Makes sense. The system for the "new Digg" seems to be heavily based on getting as much signal as possible about the popularity of particular news items among certain groups of users. Why wouldn't they want another signal source, especially
