But can it play Crysis?

Re: Nice
Well Apple are certainly hating UK law at the moment!
Re: Comprehension Fail, Lewis
The introduction of widespread 'DIY energy generation' by all the solar panels on rooftops across the country actually incurs cost to the distribution networks as well - the standard model of energy flowing only one way is disrupted and this change needs to be managed, implemented and calculated on the grid.
This costs the distribution network providers as well, as you've then got to design a system that will handle it, fit relevant hardware for metering, costing etc and this will cause charges to rise.
Although it's greener it cannot occur for free!

I think we can all agree that a slot to stick your expansion inside is the most important aspect. And in tablets too...

Oops, now the faceless horde will know my name!
Re: @AC Here's a test
We would be enraged with offence if we held any provable beliefs or were of any measurable minority/majority/individual interest group, but we are Anonymous and you shouldn't accept anything said as truth, as you are completely unable to verify anything we say, so for all intents and purposes we shall remain utterly ambivalent to you.
Is this any different to the motoring industry? Does the garage on the corner have a regulator?
How about the carpet fitters, where is their regulated body?
Can we expect to see a regulator for my local hairdressers, I mean how do I know how qualified the guy with the scissors really is?
Caveat Emptor!

But then Ickypedia also say war criminals make suitable wedding guests, so take that with a pinch!
Re: Torrents ? Pah @ AC901
Ok, explain why they still have Sky Living 1 if shows are produced purely on viewing figures...
Re: Torrents ? Pah @ AC901
They've already seen it - he just said he pays a subscription service to SKY for which they pay FX, so that they might show the channel which carries Dexter S7 in 2013, which they have already agreed to be paid to Showtime in order to secure the contract...
On top of that, he is paying for an additional service to receive something he is already contracted to have licence to view slightly sooner than the whim of the first service provider.
So erm, what was your point again? Money paid to the 2nd service should somehow belong to the 1st, even though the 1st is already getting their contractually obligated slice of the pie from the first payment he makes and they have no cost involved in the 2nd service at all?
Exactly the same case for my degree as well. I always begrudged it, because it doesn't encourage you to do the best you can in some respects.

Hmm.
Job 16:9 - "God assails me and tears me in his anger and gnashes his teeth at me; my opponent fastens on me his piercing eyes."

Hey, if you are a Crapple user, this couldn't come soon enough. After all, they were already fully dependent on the sun shining out of Mr Job's arse...
Re: htc patent crapple
He may not have used one, but from his user name and general display of intellect, he may have been in one for a while!
Pedant alert
Not sure that 6 out of 10 constitutes a 'few' either - as it's the majority, the term 'most' would be far more appropriate. A few out of ten could range from 2-4, 5 being 'half' and 1 being 'very few'.

Except for that one time, in Japan, where some other country did win. But aside from that, all the other thermonuclear wars we have had... oh wait...

Re: Hope Apple has a new supplier.
Screw that. If I were SOUTH KOREA I'd make it harder for Apple to buy a single resistor than it would be for Kim Jong Il to rise back up from his grave and wander into downtown Seoul, dressed only in his finest dodo-hide one-piece on the back of an albino unicorn.
Re: Cash is King
Hate to be that guy but...
'Prise' is to forcibly open by leverage. 'Prize' is booty or an item awarded. I can appreciate the prize/booty/pirate theme though.

Wait, you guys watch the bits with Kim Bauer in them for the STORY?

My arse. Sold to some nice friendly Algerians!
Re: HIS NAME WAS NOT "Steve Job"
Ah I see the single instance of "Job's" you refer to in the article. I presumed you were referring to all the other instances of "Jobs' " which are used correctly. It's clearly a typo, as the predominate usage is correct.

HOLLY: As it transpired, there weren't any Black Holes.
RIMMER: But you saw them -- you saw them on the monitor.
HOLLY: They weren't Black Holes.
RIMMER: What were they?
HOLLY: Grit. Five specks of grit on the scanner-scope. See, the thing
about grit is, it's black, and the thing about scanner-scopes...
Re: I'd like to have it done
Same here. My step-mother had it done, but just the concept of the practice makes me retch with horror.
Re: HIS NAME WAS NOT "Steve Job"
Not sure if troll but...
Both Jobs' and Jobs's are acceptable when singular personal possessive, as with this case.

Teletubbies got there first.
Re: Did you read the bit
Cheaper to manufacture. Don't expect them to come over all altruistic and start lopping ££££ left, right and centre - this is Apple we're talking about, after all.
Although I suspect a lot of corporations have various non-disclosure resources available which could function within a limited tournament scenario. Perhaps Apple and their 'lost bar phones' were the eliminator rounds...
Sonofabi... mean NBA obviously....
I seem to remember the Beastie Boys appearing as playable characters in NDA Jam: Tournament Edition? Did that not count on this whole 'selling out' thing?
Re: Vermin
Chicken Wire or similar plastic netting worked for us when we first moved in. The local cats had been using the back garden as a toilet, but between the netting and my boy's rather vigorous defence of his territory, we no longer see foreign cats encroaching on our garden. Our two don't shit where they eat either, meaning we are poop free!
