Not to mention that one of the products he is wanking over has a button that doesn’t even work properly so it had to be disabled with software. Maybe the nerds should have focused more on the engineering rather than then aesthetic design?
Yes, just lie I have to buy a Samsung product for Samsung to give me updates. And? Last time I checked, LG doesn’t update HTC phones and HTC won’t give me updates for a Samsung phone.
Except you’re trying to reword what the person said to change the meaning of their statement. They said you “have to pay for a security update from Apple”, but no one pays for the updates. You pay for the phone and get the updates for no additional charge. Or for people who aren’t Aspies like Richard Stallman, in plain English that makes them “free.”
Why? The reason the third party phones are so cheap is because they will invest zero money into updates that would eat up the razor thin margins. If you want a phone maker to give you updates you’re going to have to give them an economic incentive.
So you leave your doors open and unlocked and your windows uncovered for every moment of the day? If not, what are you doing to be terrified not to do so?
Does this help explain why your comment is dumb as shit?
PETA did nothing of the sort and had to drop the case. The only thing PETA accomplished was to remove copyright since the picture in the case was not taken by a human.

Vizio is not an “Asian brand.” The company was founded in California.
and as it stands, their devices are absolutely infringing and should be banned.
As what stands? What court has made this determination and where is the ruling? Just because Qualcomm alleges something does not make it true.
Did you not even bother to read the summary? That is exactly what they are trying to do with these retail partners.
Apple is phasing out Qualcomm by buying Intel modems. Once Apple doesn’t need CDMA support they could probably drop Qualcomm completely.
Grammar Nazipis.
Grammar Nazi fail.

Yep, so great at design that they can’t design a non-malfunctioning button.
Why would anyone bother to astroturf on an irrelevant website like Slashdot?
How about just Fuckups?
Even worse: criminals find security hole in system and rob hundreds of homes.

You have to pay Apple for updates? How so? On my iPhone I just hit the update button and I get them for free.

It’s got fewer users than either BB10 or Windows Phone. Take that as you will.
Unlimited texting has been thing for nearly a decade. What crappy company are you signed up for that still charges by the text?

Are you really Glad these people are suffering setbacks because of some unforeseen consequences?
Yes I am. Stop fucking with the eagles since they clearly don’t like drones in their territory.
Says a person who doesn’t give away their real name and could have multiple sockpuppet accounts. So brave you are.
No, there’s no confusion. You’re not courageous by using a pesudo-anonymous handle.
Interesting deflection. Gonna stop being a coward yet?
Yeah they’re just vulnearable to tons of others.
So what specifically is the supposedly mind-blowing superset of features? And why would any end user care?
