I am remarkably unimpressed, and unconvinced by these results.

Manufacturers and their stupid skins. I'm assuming this has motoblur? If not, then there really is no excuse for not having Jelly Bean.

Ok, that makes sense. My "heavy use" is a lot of texting, checking email, reading kindle books (probably an hour or two a day) and some phone calls. I never stream music because I mostly listen to podcasts on my Zune. But I usually have around 30% battery at the end of the day.

The main things holding me back are my heavy use of google products, and especially google voice. There are quite a few people who only have my google voice number, and while I could still receive calls, I would have to use the web app to get text messages and voice mails.

I get the fast since I assume that it charges slower, but how is it less easy? you literally just set it down. And as for convenience, my current phone has a smaller battery than the Nokia (I have an HTC One X) and I can easily get a day and a half with normal usage, 2 days with only slightly reduced usage. So, just

Im considering getting the phone, and if I don't like it, I will return it. I think you can figure out whether or not a phone will work for you within a month, which is the usual return time, even with contract. I'll just go back to android in that case.

You are right, the numbers I used are definitely on the extreme end of how long it takes, but even at a couple hundred thousand years, I don't think its ok.

I never said 50%. I said thousands, which is at most a couple percent. And even that number is, in my opinion, unacceptable.

Firstly, new species aren't just "made". It takes millions or hundreds of millions of years for new species to evolve, so saying casually that it doesn't matter if we cause a huge extinction event because they will all just recover is ridiculous. Secondly, you picked one of the most speciose groups on the planet.

I don't think anyone is really worried about human's ability to survive global warming (although it will be highly disruptive and incredibly expensive). It's the rest of the world/species that can't handle it as well that people are worried about.

Honestly, I care enough about this kind of thing succeeding, that even though I don't need it, I would pay the installation fee. Just to make sure that this kind of initiative doesn't fail.

My brother is in the Marine Corps and will soon be starting flight school to be a helicopter pilot. While at the naval academy, he took a course on flight mechanics. In conversations with him, he claimed that even the professor of the course didn't like to go into the specifics of how a helicopter flies doing anything

I tried finding some excerpts online for you but failed. I did however, find an entire cookbook based off the series: http://www.redwall.net/kitchen/

This study doesn't take into account anything besides medical risks/benfits. What about the benefit of enjoying sex more? Uncircumcised men are more sensitive, and given the low risk/ease of preventing these issues with other mechanisms, that one benefit alone seems to outweigh circumcision.

You should probably never read any of the Redwall books. Now THAT series had some serious food porn.

I prefer the quote by Buzz Aldrin saying that the best way to honor Armstrong is to support the issues he was trying to fix later in his life: STEM education and reviving american space travel.

Is that between 10 and 100 at a single time or over the lifetime of the galaxy?

Unless this paint is reflecting the heat, couldn't it potentially make it worse in some situations by releasing the heat over a longer period of time?

I'm just wondering why the competition is so far ahead of the book release.

Did you just say you WANT screen alerts for text messages? Good god what on earth for? DO NOT WANT. A ding and a scroll across the notification bar are way more than good enough. I do not need or want something that interrupts whatever I am doing.
