Tech news isn’t everything. It’s about 30% of what I read.

From what I hear it’s a pretty fantastic accessory for an iPad.

From what i’ve seen from comments on here and Engadget people have saved quite significant sums (with some claiming that it pays for itself in under a year).

I’m pretty torn between getting a Plex Enabled Sony TV, or getting an Apple TV and using AirPlay when Mountain Lion gets released (or via my iPad in the meantime).

$1.2B. plus staffing costs, redundancies, shame.

Unless you compare it to the corresponding quarter the previous year.

Only the most successful food brand in the world, and a business model for an entire industry.

Many of the religious practices (not eating shellfish or pigs, circumcisions) were beneficial to the health of their followers.
Don’t get me wrong though, speaking as an agnostic, it’s all relative.

It wasn’t purely my example, it was based on the part in the article where Paul talks about the keynote speaker

“36% of websites are filth.”
Now, I’m guessing by “filth” he meant porn, although the p-word was never uttered from the stage, but it wasn’t just about porn.

Well, they can’t agree on a fourth standard.

I don’t mean any disrespect to them, they are perfectly free to behave however they like with regards to themselves. It’s when they act and speak for others that I disprove. As you yourself said below if people disagree then

being allowed to leave and having an easy time leaving are often two completely different things

No, when it’s all done professionally and above board it isn’t exploitative, it isn’t dangerous. It’s not the purview of old men in trenchcoats going to the local XXX Cinema or tramps buying 16 year olds a top shelf magazine for the promise of some cider money.

I’ll certainly agree with you on the latter point. Judaism is one of the more sensible religions.
The inherent segregation that was exhibited here does concern me though.

Depends what you judge to be “evils”.
Porn isn’t bad, it can be, but it isn’t a certainty. Any more than certain religious views (not these) can be “evil”.

Do those already within their own community get a choice though?

Also, it is about women, their absence from the event makes it about them.

Because ultimately, the rally wasn’t about me, and it wasn’t about women. It was about what these ultra-Orthodox men should do to keep themselves and their children, and one day their grandchildren, safe from the evil influences of the internet.

And this is the problem with the whole situation.

Boredom…

That is an obscene amount of money per song. What was his upload ratio?

That words are cheap and actions speak louder.

My initial thoughts on this is that if you need to use this sort of functionality to control your kids/keep them out of trouble, you probably haven’t done a superb job at raising them to begin with.

What, no Jubilee edition?!

It’s often a reflection on the present state of humanity, but they do predict advancements of tech and society as well.

It’s how some of the OEMs can into being to begin with. They started making screens/cases/batteries/memory then decided they could make all the hardware, now thy’re tweaking the software, why wouldn’t they fork it in the next 2/3 years. Amazon have made a fairly good shake of it.
