Android Source Code Gone For Good?
First time accepted submitter vyrus128 writes "Many people were upset at the revelation, reported here in May, that the Honeycomb version of Android would not be open sourced. But Google promised that the next version, Ice Cream Sandwich, would have full source available. Now that ICS is out, though, the source is nowhere in sight. In the thread, Android's Jean-Baptiste Queru offers the following, as to the question of whether source will ever be made available: 'At the moment I don't have anything to say on that subject.'"
Oh shut up, hairyfeet! All you do is whoring for karma and repeating Microsoft talking points. Die in a fire.
Contrary to the popular belief, there indeed is no God.
Well I'd say enough time has passed that one should really stop worshiping that word with such attention indeed. It used to mean black slave labor, but as slavery is abolished and white and black people are doing all kinds of things together this word means more these days some fucking idiot or what not. I think the best example is this:
http://bash.org/?739936
Anyway. As a counter point. In Estonian language the word neeger means a polite version of african origin or a person with black skin color etc. It has absolutely no context here because there never was any involvement in slave labor etc and the population of black coloured people here is rather slim (order of 100 or less in the whole country), mostly due to the climate. However if you take the other words one can use i.e. must mees (black person) etc, those have an undertone of rudeness to them.
So learn to adapt to context and don't worship a god damn word. It's as bad as the fact that the swastika is forbidden in Germany in everything. If someone designs a dress where the pattern can at some odd angle look like a swastika, then it's removed from sales etc. While the origin of the symbol is actually from hindu culture. Again, get over it and use the context...
Apple Turnover
Banana Bread.
"Turnover" being another name for rip-off.
Awww...is the poor wittle Lunix Luser getting butt hurt he is STILL in last place and getting beat down by JavaME which is a shitastic cell phone OS? NEWSFLASH STUPID: You don't give the people what they want? THEY WILL IGNORE YOU. And hey guess what? That is EXACTLY what they have done! Now lets let everyone enjoy your daily dose of fail, shall we fucknuts?
Isn't it sad, how like a frightened child afraid to look under the bed, you cower at the truth? if your driver model isn't shit then why does Dell have to run their own repos even though we are talking a teeny tiny subset of hardware? Oh right because Linux shits itself and dies if you use the default repos! Man that is some excellent product you got there! you think I can get better QA than the third largest OEM on the planet? What, you expect me to tell paying customers "Go to the forum, kiss some loser ass, and maybe, just maybe, in a few days someone will have mercy and give you a big pile of bullshit that may or may not make your sound work again"?
Bleeding yet douchey? want some more? nice thing about having the truth on your side, you can keep throwing punches all day! How about how a decade old Windows beat the shit out of Linux on netbooks or how ASUS has given up on your bullshit or how about Walmart running away from linux as fast as it can? You got the crazy koolaid drunk enough to say they ALL are paid shills because they won't do your forum dance or CLI horseshit? Meanwhile your "hero" Torvalds the great says Plans? We don't need no steenkin plans!. Why don't you tell them that at work next week, see how quick you get a pink slip? More? How about you actually have the balls to celebrate getting a whole 1% market share while you are actually lower than JavaME and there is a whole website dedicated To your bullshit and excuses .
You see you whiny little delusional mama's boy, I'm your worst fucking nightmare...a retailer that still believes. I believe that the community doesn't have to take Torvalds shit sandwiches, I believe that things can be made better, I believe Linux can be something for more than douchebags like you that will happily take a cock slapping from linus as long as you can say you are sticking to "teh man". I believe that there can be Linux boxes on actual shelves and penguins on boxes.
So you go hide now mama's boy, you hide with your Tux blankie and keep saying your magical nigger nigger faggot, or should I say shill shill astroturfer, like it is a magical word that will make all the bad go away. But it won't change reality and the reality is your driver model is shit and more than 15 years behind everyone else and that is why retailers like me wouldn't piss on it, not some mythical money truck that sneaks up to my door in the middle of the night. So go compile something and leave the men to talk about the real world, okay little girl?
ACs don't waste your time replying, your posts are never seen by me.
