I can say that they appear to have some degree of autonomy from News Corp. The vast bias found in a certain News Corp owned news source stateside appears to be gone, all though you can sometimes feel it leak through in some stories republished from elsewhere. Some stories are more befitting to a tabloid than a typical…

I nearly never close a tab, and keep opening new ones. I run one browser session in Chrome and keep my computer on. When I do finally close the browser it is not suprising to see I had 400+ tabs open. Luckily, I have an i7 with 4GB ram that seems to keep most of the freezing problems at bay.

The iPhone is old. You can get a very recent Android phone on contract for free. From what I've observed anecdotaly, people who don't know much about technology, and don't have a lot of money to spend will tend to go with the newest free phone on offer. The iPhone no doubt sells because it's an iPhone, but people will…

How do you do that? I'm blocked on a non-Verizon (GSM) Galaxy Nexus and want to try this.

I bought one. $780. Only real difference is the screen. No regrets. Either that screen is fucking fantastic, or I'm insane. Or both. Probably both.

Apple is always good replacing things. However, I wish their stuff didn't fail so much. I went through 3 iPads in a year, all replaced with new ones. That's ridiculous. I've had products from their competitors, that despite being cheaper and made of lesser quality, have lasted better. It's also much more of a pain if…

Bah. Since I made this post mine has broken somewhat. The volume down button is permanently pressed! I can get by turning the volume up and it stays there, but if you bump the thing the volume drops to nothing and beeps at you. Evil evil stuff.

I have this headset, I use it with the built in Bluetooth on my laptop and iPad. It is amazing. I love listening to music without having to worry about the device your headphones are plugged into.

Not necessarily. Smaller, more informal projects may have bug testers or other people that never go near a line of code, or a Mac. They still need the UDID to install beta versions of apps though.

I think it would take much less resources to stream on a 4G network as compared to a 3G network, and would expect some price drop. I understand these are brand new networks and serious investments, but there is much more availability of data on these networks. Supply has gone up, and the price should be changed to…

It's not the cost of labor that's the problem. Foxconn could afford to pay their workers more and just marginally increase the price of the finished product. We have environmental regulations and labor regulations here that are unheard of in China. There's also literally no infrastructure to build these sort of things…

"@RealTimeTitanic seeks to show us how it happened from the standpoint of its crew."

Your math is wrong. You can't just divide volumes like that. The size of the boxes have to match up with the dimensions of the plane. You also have to package up all the boxes and such so they can be safely and easily transported.

I was going to try this out too, same problem here ;)

Because to make a decent camera you have to have some room for the lensing configuration. Otherwise you end up with something like the front facing camera in the iPad 2. That makes the physical camera units thick. So they either have to make the rest of the phone thick to match the camera, or make the the rest of the…

Facebook Messages has become a very powerful program outside of the Facebook website. The Messenger apps on pretty much every platform. They're on iPad, iPhone, iPod, Android, PC, Mac, the Website, and anything that can connect to the Jabber protocol. Facebook has all the big reasons people want an alternative to text…

The problem with telling them is it will confuse them. This article is aimed at being used on those with absolutely zero knowledge of anything computer or computer related. If you tell them it will just confuse them, and then they will blame ANYTHING that goes wrong, whether related or not on you, because you did it…
