"No, it's not meant like that at all." Cool, so it's your baseless opinion vs Google's public stance on their motivations. How productive. "I, for one, never wanted my YouTube account linked to my Gmail account etc." I'm sorry that you feel

Google's argument is that they aren't different services, they are all 'just Google'. Say what you want about that philosophy, but it has worked well for many people, myself included.

For those who can't watch the full video: 132 Americans gave 60% of SuperPAC funds in the last election cycle. Republic lost, indeed.

I was confused when I saw the article as I had originally read the title as 'A cold, Harsh Reality for Rdio '. Sums up the problem pretty well.

Earlier this year I was billed twice in the Play Store. I emailed customer service, and they replied and removed the charge in about an hour. I also purchased a Nexus 4 on launch day, and none of my interactions with customer service were p

I'm sorry, but I fail to see how six months of free same-day delivery somehow doesn't count as compensation.

I really wish people would stop pretending as if there was some direct correlation between the killing of Reader and the launch of every new product. Personally, I'd much rather see them working on this than on Reader.

I second the idea of going to Australia. I have a friend who did so and managed to make $20/hour as a barista. Granted it won't be easy, but it will give you the chance to get out of Yakima. I've spent time there and I understand your desir

I'm inclined to disagree. When I'm in class or working and I receive a notification I almost always check it. In most cases I wouldn't say that this is because I'm "addicted," but rather because I have a class of notifications that need to

I was in the the AI class mentioned in the article, and I can say the results were somewhat disastrous. The early problem sets were trivially easy to facilitate quick grading (e.g., creating truth tables for propositional logic statements,

Echoing other posters' comments, I have received excellent Play Store support both by phone and email. In both cases I had no rouble reaching a real person and the issue was resolved within hours. So you might want to dial back the hyperbol

Not particularly. I use Google Music streaming and only keep about 10 albums on the device itself. That, combined with a couple hundred photos, a bunch of apps, and a handful of ebooks puts me at about 3 gigs used on my Galaxy Nexus. I coul

For those things that are unethical but I don't realize and do anyway because they're socially acceptable, how is "socially acceptable" not a justification? Surely it's unreasonable to expect me to know what is absolutely ethical and what

The New York Times original article on Google X placed a lot of emphasis on the lab's work in robotics. I have a feeling Google will be very interested in this challenge. Keep in mind that Google's self driving car project largely grew out
