Nothing of consequence happens in December anyhow.

If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel.

I guess there is an upside to fragmentation.

Yes they can update it without updating the entire OS

I HATE the holidays, I wish I could skip December, too. . . but not if it meant being saddled with an Android “phone”.

Sorry to say, this is a nothing bug. Article says it affects a single app. An update would fix it easily enough (maybe they can update specific apps without updating the whole system?).

The iOS daylight savings bug in 2010 was far worse. If you didn’t know about the bug and plan for it, your Monday (or any recurring) alarm would’ve gone off an hour late, making for an interesting excuse to your boss when you got to work.

Only effects a tiny fraction of that fragmented POS system, no real loss either way.

When did the Jews started a war against Hitler?

Seems Arabs aren’t welcoming neighbors since time began…

Whereas “On November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly voted 33 to 13, with 10 abstentions, in favor of a Partition Plan that created the State of Israel. The British reliquished their mandate over Palestine in 1948. War broke out between the Arabs and Jews soon after.”

Here’s something that’s much older. All you Terminal users, enter cal 9 1752 on a Terminal command line and check out the astounding results!

Why is Gingrich reporting on Android bugs? My how the mighty have fallen…

Due to its fragmentation this only affects 1% of the Android population…

Must be the latest rev of jellybean. I’m on an ICS device and the month of December is alive and well.

Considering the fragmentation this can’t be a problem for many people lol

Since fandroids don’t buy anything anyway it’s no loss to the economy to have them skip the most important shopping season.

Yes, the 1.3 million people who are trapped in a giant concentration camp are definitely the problem. That’s tantamount to blaming the Jews for Hitlers invasion of Poland.

You mean the inmates in Gaza who are having a prison riot?

Gaza is what is preventing peace between Israel and the Palestinean Authority, and you are stupid enough to pray for them. I hope the Department of Homeland Security has your name on their lists, terrorist!

Hey, isn’t that the month when the world is supposed to end? That’s one way to avoid it…

Over 700 rockets fired at Israeli targets and you are praying for Gaza?

You do know the terrorists in Gaza started this BS.

So, would that be a feature or a bug?
