French fighter jets deployed over Libya - Off-topic

So, the west is finally in Libya helping the rebels over there.
http://edition.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/africa/03/19/libya.civil.war/index.html?hpt=T1
I believe this is great, as long as air support is the only thing we're supporting with. I know, we are not the world's police, but when such a genocide is taking place I believe it's right to help the people of Libya.

Yeah I think it's about time the UN/US/UK/France did something about this. Colonel Gudaffi (spelling?) is totally messed up in the head. Does he honestly think that attacking even more now is going to help the situation? And more does he think that Pro-Gudaffi people take on the western world? Let's hope it ends well with little or no deaths to be had to those risking their lives going over to help the Libyan people.

I'm shocked at this.

France has for long been a very powerful country when it comes to their army. It's also one of the five members of the United Nations Security Council.
France and UK are leading the operation.

I find it interesting that France is actually getting involved considering they didn't want to have anything to do with the US' involvement in Iraq...maybe they have some interests of their own in Libya?

Seriously though, there's no flag for england or scotland either, we are all part of the UK, so why exactly would you need one?

I have zero nationalism in my blood, I am mongrel Irish/Scot/English/welsh/danish etc. My flag would be almost a complete set of Europe.

Religion is the real problem in 90% of wars :?
Rubbish. That's a myth created for you to believe.
Wars today are not lead by religion but by capitalist greed.
So if we're getting a Welsh flag does this mean that we get an English one too ..... Or are we back to the English being discrimated against yet again?
I vote that either we remove the Scottish flag or allow a flag for each member of the United Kingdom (including Northern Ireland).

AT&T just has over sensitive forum moderators with inadequacy issues. FoneJunkie and myself were banned because of "political correctness". Our crime was we objected to having a Spanish language forum. I have nothing against the language or culture. All cultures and people to me are interesting, fun to be around, and find something to learn from. I just want people who choose to LIVE in the USA to learn to speak the language so we can communicate. That's not to much to ask is it?
Anyway, enough of political correctness and on to politics.

From Wikipedia, indigenous languages
North America is notable for its linguistic diversity, especially in California where it alone has 18 genetic units consisting of 74 languages (compare to the mere 4 genetic units in all of Europe: Basque, Indo-European, Uralic, and Turkic). Another area of considerable diversity appears to have been the Southeast; however, many of these languages became extinct from European contact and as a result they are, for the most part, absent from historical record. This diversity has been and continues to be very influential in the development of linguistic thought in the U.S.

"The Land of the Free"...
There are over 16,000,000,000 people, about 250,000,000 live in the USA, so the rest of us, 15,750,000,000 are the poor souls living in the lands of the unfree? the oppressed? Don't you see that that phrase "the land of the free" is very insulting to the rest of the world, ignorant, short sighted, denying our rich histories, cultures and political systems?

Your insulted because you are adding a word into that line that isn't there.
It is "The Land of the Free"....
NOT "The only Land of the Free".
And speaking of indigenous languages, neither English or Spanish is indigenous of the Americas. From Mexico (and slowly moving north) on down, Spanish is the language of their conquerors. Most of the culture is influenced by a country thousands of miles away. And of course most should know the history of the English speaking people and their relationship to Native Americans. And you French guys... all you got was some of Canada and south Louisiana.

Dutch girl??? I've heard some stories about you Dutch girls.
And of course "you French guys" was directed at.... well... French guys.
I'm Dutch and Irish myself. But here lies the problem with your argument. The term "Land of the Free" isn't arrogant. It's the truth (though that is being taken away more and more everyday). We have more rights then *most* other countries right now. You are playing with semantics.
How many other countries have what we have? We, as America do have our problems. Education is crap, many other countries have better health care than us, and we have this terrible habit of messing with other countries when we need to focus more on our own.
Even though we do have our shortfalls, the world is looking on us for those and not for all the good we do. We pass out more money to other countries than anyone else, we DO take in an unprecedented number of new citizens, and we are trying to work on our shortcomings.
So... with all the problems we currently face, do I love my country? Yes I do. I wouldn't have joined the military in order to risk my life to defend it if I didn't. My site isn't designed to belittle other countries. My site is designed around patriotism. It is also there as a open forum to discuss people that disagree with me.
momentarylapseofreason..... I like the way you think.
I want to add something to it too. I think we (USA) have the best form of government out of any country. But it has one major flaw, if I can call it a flaw. It is the fact it requires men and women of integrity and honesty to run it. And well, we are in short supply of that.

That's very hard to judge. But lets look at some examples:
I do not have the right to carry a fire arm and I'm very glad with that situation. If I face a situation of inhumane physical suffering, I do have the right to die and doctors do have the right to help me with that last wish. I have the right to grow, buy, smoke cannabis. Every 4 years I have the right to vote for 2eKamer (compare to US Senate, more or less), I can choose from hundreds of candidates throughout the entire political spectrum, even a party for animals is actually represented in parliament. I FEEL much more free than if I would have to live in the US. But probably much less free than lots of people in Africa, Asia, South America, Australia who can walk their whole life without crossing roads, without even being able to imagine a traffic jam, who can build their hut wherever they please, who can eat whatever they can grab.

Hello all,
I am in the hospitality business and organise events for a number of blue chips – in short my company is the best in the business.
I get good rates on hotels, restaurants and have excellent connections for all things conference throughout Europe. So if Italy, Spain, Portugal, South Africa, Uk or Ireland is a possible venue for the proposed event, I will be happy to get involved. I am a big fan of XDA.
Work is on going on our website just now so I am aware that a number of pages need updating... its in the hands of the HTML engineer... link in my signature if ya wanna have a look at what we do.

This would be pretty cool however i've never seen it work out in any other forum. I think the best thing to do would be to create a poll and see where most people are located. Say there's a bundle in California, then we could have one in LA or some place close to all Californians. Same thing for other states, countries, even cities, etc. We could then all share our experiences. As for me, i'm in Southern California, hence the reason i used it
More or less this event might take place in the US or somewhere in Europe...only few asian are here...
It is a nice idea. Make it a convention and invite some guest speakers to show off the future of mobile devices, have reps from HTC and others perhaps like Sony, Motorola, Nokia, Jabra, etc... showing off newest gadgets and gear - Workshop seminars and stuff like that. It could be a fun time to meet some of our members in person, talk, show off our devices and envy the other person's device and a good learning opportunity as well.

Starting form there we can see how many would like to attend and where most people is located
But I must say that I agree with Daveshaw that the best place should be where all this started: Amsterdam!

Yeah, Amsterdam would be great! And there will be raffle promos and HTC Devices giveaways courtesy of all xda-dev's moderators and admins... Come one let's make this happen.
Great poll!

i agree however that safety, next of course to resources, is definitely the issue needed to be considered by anyone else. but who's safe nowadays? i dont think there's a better place than our own abode (just be sure our better half is out.. lol)..
a little clarification though about Philippines vis a vis Abu Sayaff (ASG). ASG concentrates mostly in northern part of Mindanao and now being relentlessly pursued. on the otherhand, there are great places in the Philippines particularly in Luzon & Visayas, although as i've said cant be considered safer that our homes. But on the brighter side, your 1$ to Php47.++ is quite noteworthy of consideration.... more than double the fun i guess
Btw, considering the "safety" issue as quoted, i voted for the last option (peace orb...)

Why is it that the USA gets a full line-up of hTC's devices?

I've been browsing the web and certain regional websites of the hTC...All i find is the USA gets a larger share of the device launches compared to the rest of the World. Why is this partiality taking place? Even the non-residing USA crowd likes to have some great devices like the Droid series, the new WP devices in their hands...This is really disappointing.
I guess it was due time. For many, many years, the US was always last to get any half decent pda phone offered by any carrier....
I guess hTC realized the importance of the US market and decided to give us a shot

Hmm...That really sucks...
Well, i don't wanna put any hatred towards Americans...So please don't post any hatred posts.
Yeah it´s bad, and I think it´s related to the fact there is no hTC store in the country so I always buy my devices from US or Europe
Ugh, Canada has horrible Droid phones, imho.
Rogers is exceptionally horrible, except the new Vibrant. I think we need more competition in Canada.

Not double but if you are into that business, yes you can make some extra bucks.
I am not really interested on that I just want to have my devices

True...But if Hitler wouldn't have surrendered, how could you guyz win the war? And ultimately if that never happened,how would have you posted here?
Imagine Hitler with a bugged ROM on XDA...I fear he would have capsized XDA and put us into house arrest...
Imagine Hitler releasing a ROM of his own.....The Hitler series...
Imagine some one criticizing Hitler for a perfectly buggy ROM...
Imagine Mr. President help Hitler with the ext packages....
Finally imagine a XDA World summit where Hitler and his ROM Addicts discussing about various ROMs...
Imagine Hitler getting pissed off reading ORb's signature...
Imagine Hitler posting spam and getting Banned on XDA... LOL!

Hypebeast

Hey guys! Do you know any streetwear that are hype? These are mostly people living in LA, the Bay Area, and New York. A hypebeast by definition is a person who only rocks hype (street) clothes. Most hypebeast are either Filipino or Asian (they are not the same). They also either have a lineup, or a fohawk. Most hypebeast brands include: The Hundreds, Stussy, Diamond Supply Co., Illest, Supreme, Nike SB, Crooks & Castles, In4mation, Obey, and Jordans. I would like to know other hype brands there is out there .
LRG clothing?
I still don't understand what a "hypebeast" is.

Someone who wears hyped stuff. Like a snapback hat, active shocks, and a lanyard. It's hard to explain, but I'm pretty sure you saw one before.
...I find more hypebeasts in Irvine more than anywhere else.

Lol. I was bored, 20 minutes from work-time over and I wanted to troll and go random.
The thing is that the Philippines (where the Filipinos come from) is located in South East Asia, and they share more Asian heritage than anything else.

Well, I did mention geography fail. Read above?
Filipinos are cooler than malaysians anyway. Most malays are basically spambots...

I'm not sure if I'm right or this is a complete language fail (not geography haha) but if I do recall Malaysian 's speak Cantonese making the better lol jk it doesn't really matter.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Well, Cantonese is actually a dialect that Chinese Malaysians speak. Not sure where you get that.
It's pretty much like I used to think that every single American speak with a Texas drawl (uncle lived there), dressed like Dirty Harry, and whine like New Yorkers (too much HIMYM).
