well to those of us, not using iPhone it is* And to be honest, most of the files I sync, I never access on a phone anyway. So it would still be useful even without Android support. Not sure how common my setup is, But I have desktop both a

Well if the two US companies that do business in US and with US residents, than UK court would not have any jurisdiction. (And would not even try, it's not like they don't have other things to do.) But in this case, you have two U

First of all, I think Google deliberately played games and they should get smacked hard for this. But ... its not that simple any more. A lot of the time, apps will be hibernated/suspended to disk, and then restored from disk. So t

They can afford to. But will Microsoft risk doing that and massive possible lawsuit from Google. Google is also owns a lot of it's own backbone, so It would be a lot easier for them to play network games. And they could even try to be

That depends on what you are used to. I was mostly used to C and Perl when I was young, and Python made a lot of sense. I would not say that javascript was more obvious to me than rust was when I started to use them. A lot of people seem to

You can embed an email client, if you want/need. But it makes sense to embed terminal, since you often/sometimes want to run some command in that directory/folder. I never had a need to run mail in specific folder.
