I think android as a software owes nothing to IOS. Sure, it started out as a laggy hard to use software, but has come a long way to shed those features away. They both have the same amount of app, with the same quality levels. Android has more free apps. Then come the two features that really set them appart. Android,…

I actually hate the lock screen, but i'm forced to use it due to the credential policy in android that makes me chose one of two: have a lockscreen and no internet at college, or have a lockscreen and internet... But yeah, i'm with you, lockscreens are bah...

Ting. Seriously. Ting is awesome.

Y? It works for many of them. And it would work for many more if people didn't use stuff like adblock...

It's not : "I MAKE YOUTUBE VIDEOS, I DESERVE TO BE PAID!" it's more "I HAVE A JOB FOR WITCH I DESERVE TO BE PAID". If that job happens to be creating content for you to enjoy on YouTube, well then be it. If many top youtubers weren't being paid (i.e. making youtube their full time job) then you probably wouldn't have…

It's not about the advertiser, its about the person bringing the content to you. They are the ones who you owe the decency to allow them to get paid. Do the decent thing and don't screw people of their due share on a service they are bringing to you. Also, the bandwidth you paid for is only being occupied by adds,…

The advertiser has no rights other than the ones he agreed upon with Google (or other providers). The user, like the advertiser also has no rights, much less to a "clean surfing experience". The websites that you visit are a product being put forth to you by a content creator, and you either accept the conditions the…

It's not about needing, it's about deserving. Obviously people who simply re-post other videos can go screw themselves, but everyone else, not only deserves the receive the add revenues, but are entitled to do so because they can, and if you don't want to suffer through an add, don't just be an idiot and screw the…

Or just don't block them and let YT creators monetize on their creations...

so, you pay extra for the brand, why would you scrath it off? And dont go for quality or aesthetics because, as with all markets, there are always cheaper alternatives...

It never ceases to amaze me how you Americans love your credit cards...

why would you use a text editor instead of an ide for codding? alteast for C/C++ and Java you have two great alternatives like codeblocks and eclipse!

It't not a mess if you know where your stuff is! :D

They keep her around for many reasons, one of them is that she earns them money. If she weren't the monarch the money from the Royal Estate would not be going to the government and royal related tourism would diminish. So yes, one of the many reasons they (the royals) are kept around is that they make money for the…

I'm not making that point. I just said that one of the reasons that the queen was kept was that she not only didn't cost the UK money, but she even made money for the UK, wich is true, directly (the money given from the Royal Estate) and from tourism indirectly. So, clearly, the windsors make money for the UK. That's…

"The monarchy basically survives purely at the good graces of the political establishment, and they both know it." That and because she actually makes money for the UK, and that's always usefull...

"it's just a little riskier, since Android is a bit more complicated than Windows Phone or the iPhone. That's not necessarily a bad thing, of course—it's what tech geeks like us love about it"

hot water is hot water is hot water...
