If rumours are true, there should be some iTunes cloud support soon. Software upgrades require iTunes, but I guess as long as you have access to an iTunes equipped box sometimes. As you point out, if you're dependant on adding Music and Mo

If he's running Linux I'd be hesitant to recommend an iPhone 4, but I've never tried. I suspect lack of iTunes would be annoying. Is there a good iTunes substitute on Linux now?

I can guarantee that there isn't a person in Canada that reads the National Post that doesn't know who Conrad Black is. I actually appreciate that they didn't waste my time with any backstory. I think in this day and age people can google s

Well said. If you listen to No Agenda you quickly start to realize that mainstream media is a huge waste of time and completely controlled by corporations. Adam may have some crazy theories, but a lot of what they talk about is the truth. Y

I think you're being naive, not that they can extract money from you, but that you value your time so little. Imagine the pain in the ass a lawsuit would be. I know this is part of the strategy of "Big Media", but the real solution is for

You mean IP addresses of people downloading torrents? It's peer to peer man, if I start to DL the torrent I'll make a connection to you (assuming you set up your client to accept) and I'll see that you're sharing the data. The "hacked wire

Glad to see someone trying to help Canadian funding efforts. Your about page is pretty weak on actual information about who's organizing this (i.e. you) and your background. I'd love to see those details. No harsh criticism intended, but a

This was discussed on No Agenda recently as an example of why corporate advertising is bad for media that does this kind of work (although Mythbusters rarely broaches subjects that run against corporate culture). It seems odd Adam would hav

In my experience recuiters are used to staff long term positions. If a hiring company is looking to hire someone for a position that will take many months to learn an existing code base it is reasonable to expect that person stay with the c

You're still not getting it (or more likely being intentionally obtuse). Corporate results matter: remember the hype around the Palm Pre? If you dropped your iPhone development or even moved resources to build a Pre version of your softwar

That's more of an unfortunate thing on your part, IMO. I take this from it personally: - Mobile is still growing like crazy - People are willing to pay a premium for quality even in tougher economic times - Digital distribution of Music and
