In Muhammad's time there were quite a few sects that denied Jesus was God. He would have been familiar with the concept before he started getting revelations. It's interesting to n…

No, the link you provided tells you what Nicaea was about. It standardised the method for calculating Easter and condemned Arianism. (Arianism denied the trinity, not Jesus's divin…

It'd be really interesting to read how your meetings go. e.g. what MS was interested in, what did MS rule out because of other concerns, how did MS built upon/refined the ideas, et…

Not really. All it means is that Nokia has to convince Android developers to upload their apps to the Nokia store too.

You don't even need to make it at home. I used to just but all my stuff on my way into work on Monday and store it in my office. Most of the stuff we put in sandwiches (bread, butt…

My strategy is to install Columns UI ( http://yuo.be/columns.php ) and ignore the power options to the best of my ability. So far it's working.

If I had to guess I would say it's intending to fill the niche of the family's second car. Something for Dad to drive to work in while Mum drives the kids around in the main car. T…

>Outlook interface is the worst. I haven't had an issue with it, and I've been using Outlook.com pretty much since it came out. Before then I was using the Windows Live Mail deskto…

He probably directed the writing of the article but I doubt he actually sat down and wrote it with his own hand.

I think belonging to a church probably helps a lot too, just because I know quite a few Christians from foreign countries and all of them have pretty mild accents. Even the ones wh…

I'm going to have to do something like that I think. It's the only phone I've ever needed to get a case for.

Yeah, those criticisms would make sense for a Nexus 7.

"Plasticky" is a weird way to describe a phone that's 95% Gorilla Glass. Personally I wish the Nexus 4 was more plasticky. My phone always ends up on the floor because the glass on…

> No. People need food, clothing, shelter, a job to survive. On the other hand, humanity has done just fine without the Internet or computers for most of its history. The implicati…

I love that he can talk so comfortably about the strengths and weaknesses of himself and others. A lot of people are uncomfortable talking plainly about their own importance or abo…

I usually try to fast at least once a week, the longest I've fasted for is 5 days. The first few days I get hunger pangs around my usual meal times, but they go away soon enough. A…

The only Android screenshots that look less pretty to me are the ones taken in the middle of doing something, e.g. the Android lock screen notifications which is in the process of …
