    On what is based your claim that it is impossible to foster brand loyalty on Android side? Maybe there is a reason that there is no brand loyalty on Android side, a reason that may…

    What I fail to understand so far is the pricing of the news. Do newspapers really earn tens of dollars/pounds/euros per month per user? I want to pay for the news, but any website …

    Definitely not just US. I'm from Lithuania and these were the pencils we all used [0]. That was around 1992 and later, so could have been a relic from Soviets. Only in later years …

    ~20sec music play and then followed pause. Just not sure what to say about that. Even the guy narrating gets confused and almost clicks for the second time to start the music. Then…

    There are plenty of cars with speedometer positioned in the middle (particularly from french automakers), some people don't mind that. I personally never even look at the car with …
