You may wanna cut the cord of cable TV -- Try PLEX or XBMC
Jacpher replied to Baashi's topic in Developement | Projects
Who knew Baashi was a geek. Sxb very interesting stuff. Apple TV second generation with icould and airplay support, very appealing. Nuune: I have seen Islambox and these guys brought Islamic channels right to our bedrooms without requiring to install satellite dishes. It has been awhile but I hope they improved the picture quality a little better. You got Majd, Risaala, Rahma, Iqra Sunna, Quran and many others including Al Jazeera, PressTV, and adding more. I've recently been reading the reviews about Roku but I didn't know they work with Islambox. Warka na sii sxb. Do I need subscription from Islambox for it to work on Roku? -
Women bosses are crazy but men bosses who want to get into the pants of female employees are more crazier and madder. I had a crazy woman boss who would send a nasty email at three in the morning but all you needed to know was that she was a little insecure about her leadership. Not personal, just plain insecure. I'd take her insecurity in a heart beat than a jerk man whose leadership skills is not beyond getting Lisa in bed ka dibna Lisa u noqda indhoole ay hagto ayada.

I see some of you want to pray Janaaza for him. But did he leave the world a little bit better than he found it? I am sure his success wouldn't be where it is had it not been for the unskilled laborers of Asia and the third world caalam. The man is said to have dedicated his life and spent 24/7 on making his company, Apple better while men of his status dedicated their time and wallets to making the world a little better than they found it. Gates, Buffet and even Google are making peoples lives a little better ee odagan dhintay wuxuu aduunka ku soo qordhiyay aanan aheyn his own business?

^We? You Somali? The union will get them reinstated. Glad they stood up for their religious rights.

^It's one thing to justify these heinous acts of terrorism, but another to religiously and seriously believe that blowing little innocent kids into pieces is what gets one to Shahada and Jannah. Only demosnistic monster believes such garbage, that's if they believe in existence of Janah or Jahanama. No sane human being can digest such a thing. Only a demon knows what another demon do.

^Spoken like a true gaal, you are. We all need guidance from Allah sister, and I suggest you seek religious advice from your local Imam, Masjid or Sheikhs. Online forums aren't the ideal place for seeking religious knowledge.

Just a day after apple fans were losing sleep over iPhone 5 not coming out, here comes the news of Steve Jobs passing away. The son of a Syrian grad student, Steve was a true visionary and a talented leader. Will Tim Cook and Apple deliver?

^Very constructive criticism and reasonable demands from SL leadership. I hope someone is listening and work with him to better Daami community. The guy in the first vid is full of himself. Neither Amin Amir is responsible for the historical systematical abuses, nor cambuulo for certain odayaal is gonna fix Somalia. Get over your emotions.

Prometheus: I don't know where you get the idea the author is defending the freedom of 'a wretched theocrat who would sooner execute him'. He is not. He never said the man was guilty or innocent. He is simply arguing for the US Constitution to be upheld, even by the highest office of the nation. Perhaps, you need to watch the interview he gave to democracy now on the subject.

The due-process-free assassination of U.S. citizens is now reality It was first reported in January of last year that the Obama administration had compiled a hit list of American citizens whom the President had ordered assassinated without any due process, and one of those Americans was Anwar al-Awlaki. No effort was made to indict him for any crimes (despite a report last October that the Obama administration was "considering" indicting him). Despite substantial doubt among Yemen experts about whether he even has any operational role in Al Qaeda, no evidence (as opposed to unverified government accusations) was presented of his guilt. When Awlaki's father sought a court order barring Obama from killing his son, the DOJ argued, among other things, that such decisions were "state secrets" and thus beyond the scrutiny of the courts. He was simply ordered killed by the President: his judge, jury and executioner. When Awlaki's inclusion on President Obama's hit list was confirmed, The New York Times noted that "it is extremely rare, if not unprecedented, for an American to be approved for targeted killing." After several unsuccessful efforts to assassinate its own citizen, the U.S. succeeded today (and it was the U.S.). It almost certainly was able to find and kill Awlaki with the help of its long-time close friend President Saleh, who took a little time off from murdering his own citizens to help the U.S. murder its. The U.S. thus transformed someone who was, at best, a marginal figure into a martyr, and again showed its true face to the world. The government and media search for The Next bin Laden has undoubtedly already commenced. What's most striking about this is not that the U.S. Government has seized and exercised exactly the power the Fifth Amendment was designed to bar ("No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law"), and did so in a way that almost certainly violates core First Amendment protections (questions that will now never be decided in a court of law). What's most amazing is that its citizens will not merely refrain from objecting, but will stand and cheer the U.S. Government's new power to assassinate their fellow citizens, far from any battlefield, literally without a shred of due process from the U.S. Government. Many will celebrate the strong, decisive, Tough President's ability to eradicate the life of Anwar al-Awlaki -- including many who just so righteously condemned those Republican audience members as so terribly barbaric and crass for cheering Governor Perry's execution of scores of serial murderers and rapists -- criminals who were at least given a trial and appeals and the other trappings of due process before being killed. From an authoritarian perspective, that's the genius of America's political culture. It not only finds way to obliterate the most basic individual liberties designed to safeguard citizens from consummate abuses of power (such as extinguishing the lives of citizens without due process). It actually gets its citizens to stand up and clap and even celebrate the destruction of those safeguards. * * * * * In the column I wrote on Wednesday regarding Wall Street protests, I mistakenly linked to a post discussing a New York Times article by Colin Moynihan as an example of a "condescending" media report about the protest. There was nothing condescending or otherwise worthy of criticism in Moynihan's article; I meant to reference this NYT article by Ginia Bellafante. My apologies to Moynihan, who rightly objected by email, for the mistake. UPDATE: What amazes me most whenever I write about this topic is recalling how terribly upset so many Democrats pretended to be when Bush claimed the power merely to detain or even just eavesdrop on American citizens without due process. Remember all that? Yet now, here's Obama claiming the power not to detain or eavesdrop on citizens without due process, but to kill them; marvel at how the hardest-core White House loyalists now celebrate this and uncritically accept the same justifying rationale used by Bush/Cheney (this is war! the President says he was a Terrorist!) without even a moment of acknowledgment of the profound inconsistency or the deeply troubling implications of having a President -- even Barack Obama -- vested with the power to target U.S. citizens for murder with no due process. Also, during the Bush years, civil libertarians who tried to convince conservatives to oppose that administration's radical excesses would often ask things like this: would you be comfortable having Hillary Clinton wield the power to spy on your calls or imprison you with no judicial reivew or oversight? So for you good progressives out there justifying this, I would ask this: how would the power to assassinate U.S. citizens without due process look to you in the hands of, say, Rick Perry or Michele Bachmann?

Photoshopped. Look closely at the hand iyo shaatiga.

Considering the fact there is no country named Somaliland or South Somalia on the world map, I am confused as what the author is trying to get across? Somali people in the north love and share the suffering of their brothers in South?

Congrats. Happy reunion. Barakalaah lakum wabaarka caleykum wajama baynakumaa fiikheyr. If you can't afford to offer congrats to brotha Rashiid and sister Yaasmiin, at least don't a hater. This is a sweet, short, to the point marriage ceremony with a bit of mareykan touch. All ay diinta tiri in marriage is a wali, a qaadi, and two witnesses. Anything else is a crowd, iyo waxaaga wax laguugu daray iyo tan Soomaalida oo israaf fowqal israaf noqota inta badan. I don't get the trashing or tacsi comments on the marriage of this young couple. Chances are this one is much more sound in diinta than the ones dadkeena dhigtaan every weekend. We ignore to see the beauty of creating a new family and get obsessed with expecting others to have our own style and understanding of marriage. Let others choose to live their lives. Let them spend half a penny or a boatload of money. It's for their own satisfaction, not yours.
