Consumes don’t care about stuff they can’t (easily) see. Pixel density, probably. 10" and 7" tablets are, however, sufficiently different.

Well, Google sensibly ignore quotes if it doesn’t find anything which is probably what happened to you. Would you rather Google to just display that it found nothing?

Google couldn’t find anything and striped the quotes away.

Google does not ignore quoted terms. I for one love instant and suggestions.

You don’t use the timeframe option? I use that one all the time, it’s invaluable to me.

No, they are not. Only if Google can’t find anything – which makes a lot of sense.

What’s that cruft you are talking about? Ignoring for a moment the cache link (I’m not sure how many people use it, maybe it’s worth testing whether Google could do with it being a bit more hidden) Google’s results page is very sparse and o

Secret electronic voting is just too much hassle. Manual counting really isn't that big of a deal, at least with current election systems.

I loathe giving this any more attention but I feel it is important to say that this is in no way a proof. It’s very easy to look for supposed marks of manipulation and very easy to find many of them – even if nothing was actually manipulate

The iPod shuffle has nothing whatsoever to do with voice control. Edit: That is actually factually true. Not sure why some seem to think otherwise.

Android users seem to like their voice recognition features. If Apple can deliver that kind of quality I don’t see a problem.

Why do you think that is going to happen? Their privacy policy doesn't seem to allow email addresses to be used for that purpose. I do not think the Obama campaign could take this lightly, and not only because of the privacy policy. Use of

They could have cooperated with the police in Germany.

I think he is a lot more upset that Valve tried to lure him to the US where he would have faced drastic punishment. Getting caught in Germany (where the punishment he received didn’t destroy his life) was the best thing that could happen to

It amuses me to no end that people really believe Apple cares about someone with a 100+ GB music library. Apple will kill the Classic whenever it’s convenient. If there’s one small bump on the road to continuing to ship the Classic they jus

That’s a minority of use cases. Flash can stick around as a bridge technology for a few years to cover those. The majority of stuff that’s today done in Flash can easily be done with plain HTML, CSS and Javascript, often not even the newest

It's a bit too much gymnastics for my brain right now but shouldn't one also look at this from the perspective of Google's paying customers, i.e. advertisers? Looking only at those who use Google to search seems to be missing one half of th

But that’s because the TouchPad was a failure. Samsung’s phones are actually selling.

You make no sense. Dawkins respects people and is polite. If you had read his books or watched his talks you would know that. You also seem quite unfamiliar with this concept called humor and jokes.

Why should I respect people’s believes? What’s the reasoning behind that? Shouldn’t I be free to not respect what other people think? Also: Where are you getting the idea that Dawkins would like to force something on people? I would like a

He was wrong about that. Humans tend to be wrong from time to time and say stupid things. That’s just how it is. He certainly, however, wasn’t foaming at the mouth or being a dick. I don’t always like what Dawkins has to say (which, I shoul

There is a difference between writing pages of text in one sitting and writing bits and pieces spread out. I was specifically responding to the use case of entering that paragraph of text the parent mentioned. If there are situations where

“… it's what makes Lion the most colossal fail in the history of fails from Apple …” What? What?! The only 1:1 ported tablet feature I know of is Launchpad (and it does suck, don’t get me wrong) which is, however, completely optional and do

The weird meme are the grandiose claims of failure. I can’t square those with reality.

“A template can't do that for me...and it's a pain to enter that on a tablet. It effectively nullifies the use of tablets as effective EHR.” Entering so little text on a tablet is definitely not a pain for me and, though quite a bit slower

I don't know, the greens seem to be a lot less progressive, in theory and pactice. The greens are certainly a lot less willing to embrace technological change.

These three paragraphs also seem important: “It is crucial to note that affirmatively declining to discuss the investigation in the absence of counsel is not the same thing as remaining completely silent. If you are not in custody, your to
