Interesting take at the end, I wouldn't necessarily call it a Win about AppleCare coverage, it only highlights all sorts of issues which are becoming increasingly common on Macs. Logic board and full unit replacements should not be com

While stumbling upon different articles, I came across this video on YouTube of a guy in Shenzhen, China, that can replace the internal 16GB storage with a 128GB capacity NAND, so it's highly possible that a modified version of this is

I don't even understand why this was necessary, with both my and my husband's employer in Nevada, I am able to get a discount on the cell bill plus I get to claim my cell phone bill for taxes. To us, at least, seems fair already..

Which also begs the question – why was his posted on HN in the first place?

They're still running it.

Why was this posted here? What's the relevancy?

I stick with .pdf files However, that might be bad practice.

I expect a comment like this on Reddit, not HN.

Ok and who will pay for that?

Yup. Retail stores and banks as well. There's plenty of large institutions that are using XP for day-to-day operations. And people wonder how "easy" it is for those darn hackers to "steal info." It's easy to st

My husband was watching a CNN news segment about the missing plane earlier today on the TV. As I overheard the program while I was on the laptop I couldn't help but notice the absurd amount of times the news anchor kept saying "of

Not Dell, but the retail store where you got it. Most (Wal-Mart, OfficeMax/Depot, Best Buy) have their "Service plans" which is pretty much paying to get rid of misc software. Retailers gotta love that extra profit while the

Apple hating seems to be the new trend and I see it as the main reason for thus much attention. That, and also for the fact that if Steve Jobs were still around, he'd be able to sweep this up or else be able to assuage the public about

I'm not, he's just an example which I thought best sums up what I am trying to describe...

Easy. Think of Sheldon from Big Bang Theory. He may have a high IQ, but he lacks the ability to be able to connect different ideas and/or come up with solutions which require more than just processing mathematical computations.

Nope. The Paul last name pretty much poisons the well.

That is a really pedantic response that completely misses the point. You can't deny that there wasn't any real, marketed involvement used by the top Internet companies to promote the cause. Yes, the execution of this topic's

It's as if real political change requires investment in the process throughout various means for an extended period of time, isn't it?

This is a very trivial thing to focus on in the context of Nadella's letter. What exactly is your point? It's also a poor statement to chose for psycho-analysing and judging Nadella's character.

The POS systems that I've observed in a standard retail setting have three main components: the printer for receipts, the main terminal (POS system) in which items are scanned (which runs the Windows XP for POS), then the credit card r

Reminds me of this video: http://youtu.be/c6Bkr_udado about loneliness (and how technology has influenced this)

I understood this point to deal with the abuse of the judicial system and the belief that law enforcement has the same powers as portrayed in TV shows like CSI, not in the fact that we have a justice system in place.

Other ideas have the potential of going very wrong, it's in the implementation, which sounds like a challenge worth attempting to take

At least the private-contractors are finally facing the consequences, in the beginning the outrage would have let you to believe that it was the President himself who was the one programming away the exchanges!

Besides, why bother with submitting this as an "app" considering it could just as easily be a webapp..

Exactly. Shouldn't this be used as incentive for parents and families within those communities to promote school attendance and encourage academic performance?

Well, if enough people say "enough is enough"... what next. My mobile device is tied to my phone, I have some work discounts attached to my service, I have a contract (which will gain fees for early termination). These issues make it highly

The trouble is, that's easier said than done. However, if there were any action feasible enough to do that would make it possible to: "get into the businessman's head that the NSA is bad for business." Then that will definitely be the way t
