Let's say I set a GPS limit of 200 miles, forget that I've done so and jump on a 'plane. Oops!
Let's say I lose my 'phone and decide to trigger the self-destruct just in case. OMG! My sofa's on fire! Damned 'phone fell down the back of the sofa again.
I'm struggling to think of a scenario that isn't going to end in tears.
Slogans aren't solutions.

Seriously, we've backed up a Linux system to the land much of the Internet forgot. "The street finds its own uses for things"
But really? Really? Do you want people to think your backup is news?

Oracle insinuates Google was “a plagiarist” that committed “classic unfair use.” "Insanity is repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results"
I mean, I *know* Java ME was a great system, but move on guys.

It is about billions of dollars! Oracle can't afford to loose that... Beside that Oracle has more lawyers than developers... they have to occupy them...

Larry Ellison is only the 7th richest person in the world. He needs the money from this case or he'll be selling more of his children. He already sold his soul so that's not an option anymore.

RAS on not-a-mainframe servers is about being able to disable faulty components and being able to swap them out without turning off the power. eg your data center gets hit by lightning and your UPS doesn't fully protect the hardware, with the result that 3 of your 8 CPUs, 41 of your 256 dimms, and 3 of your 8 ethernet cards fail. A mainframe level RAS server will detect the errors and disable the faulty components automatically and keep running at reduced performance until the needed replacements are shipped in and installed in the running system. IBM's been doing that for something like 50 years. Intel initially acquired the same capabilities for the Itanic, but once it became clear that cluster-elephant had no future started migrating them all over to its most expensive Xeons.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Working with Microsoft Research, the Cortana team has applied machine learning technology to enable the assistant to understand when you've made a commitment in an email - such as "I'll send you that report tomorrow" - and then proactively remind you to complete that task, without you needing to ask for a reminder. What if you never intended to do what you promised?
Or does this mean I have to buy that engagement ring after all?

I wonder what would happen if your message contained, "Cortana: elephant yourself tomorrow!"
Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.

Why fix bugs, when you can p1ss about making "features" that no-one needs or wants?

Cortana has an affectionate nickname in Italian. Consider that it rhymes with the most common word used for "easy girl who sells herself on the street at nights".
