You can put "for Mac" in a turd and it'll reach front page in a day.

I totally agree with you, but is not just the progressive views on gay marriage on the EU that are at risk, is any progressive thinking. There's a wave of right wing backward thinking around the EU, and we keep adding more countries like Hungary.

This doesn't make sense. We're admitting another Hungary in our club, and this is not going to end well. Any progressive vote is going to be blocked by those countries, and we're going to be paying money to them to vote our way as we are doing now with Hungary.

Am I missing something?. For what I checked it supports every language, as is yourself the one transcribing by hand. This is just an UI to watch the video or audio while you're typing it.

If someone goes to that meaning instead of the simple one "to eat", as in carnivore, herbivore it seams that maybe someone has bigger problems that disliking a RSS reader for the name.

The "Spanish" flu is still called the Spanish flu to this day, even when clearly wasn't originated in Spain.

Also, he was basically lying and saying what the audience wanted to hear.

He said multiple times during his lifetime on design and usability that you give the people what they need not what they want.

In this forum you're going to get very very downvoted with anything that goes against Apple.

Let's see.

Unix - Ctrl + c

Linux - Ctrl + c

Win - Ctrl + c

Mac - Option + c

Clearly the standard and natural way is the Apple way of doing things...

"The person most widely credited with Copy and Paste, Larry Tesler, did work for Apple starting in 1980. However, he created the command while working for Xerox Palo Alto Research Center at some point between 1973-1976 "

So, the Ctrl + c was BEFORE the Apple way.

"Intel, by integrating design and manufacturing, earned very large profit margins on its chips; Apple could leverage TSMC for manufacturing and keep that margin for itself and its customers."

It sounds like a test for a future space weapon. Something that, anyone correct me if I'm wrong, it's banned right now. They sell it as a new energy source and that way they circumvent the ban.

Copenhagen : 602,481 Stockholm : 974,073

Still no comparable, but whatever, it seems you got your own opinion.

"While the countries have very different population/area ratio their capitals Copenhagen/Oslo/Stockholm are comparable."

I would say not even close....

Population:

Oslo .. 673,469 -- Barcelona .. 5.515 million -- Madrid 6.55 million --

Population density:

Oslo .. 3,500 people per square kilometer -- Barcelona .. 16,000 people per square kilometer -- Madrid .. 5,400 people per square kilometer -- `
