  1. Cool story, bro. Now what does that have to do with Mozilla? Did Mozilla fire all its employees?

    Apple sells these things called Macs, iPhones and iPads. Microsoft sells these things called Xboxes, Lumias and Surfaces. I know these products were just recently released which is why you may have never heard of any of them.

    That's amazing Aspergers you've got there. You must be a hit at parties where you take facetious comments literally and then explain the sarcasm.

    But they have a patent that was approved worldwide! This sounds totally legit!

  8. Cool thanks. Seems you made your post just as I was making mine.

  9. Can we actually get original links to the EFF and Google blog posts not some third party regurgitator?

    You assume falsely. Still doesn't change that $200 for only 1 TB isn't impressive.

    I can't tell if you're joking or not, but this is a huge Apples / Oranges comparison if ever I've seen one.

    How would I be joking? $200 for only 1 TB of storage is far from impressive.

    In 18 months your link would be as foolish as someone advocating a tape drive, instead of a hard disk for a desktop computer.

    How much money you willing to bet on that?

    Also: nothing stopping you using magnetic disks, I have 6 of them in my house operating right now - but 0 of them in my laptop, PS4, PS4, desktop, HTPC.

    Cool story, brah.

    I've seen multiple deals in the last 4 weeks of 1TB (well, 960GB) SSD's ranging near the $200 US mark.

    Wow that's amazing... Oh wait...

    No, not just you. The article reads like pro-employer trollbait written by an "I got mine so fuck you" rich asshole Randian.

    I don't want to work "gigs". Nor would I even have a job if not for the fact that I don't want to starve to death and be homeless. Holding 6 jobs at once sounds horrendous.

    In the US? Probably never. You'll be demonized as a "socialist". And there are very few things in the US that are more hated and distrusted than socialists.

    I bet XP still has an enormous user base.

    It has around 10-15% market share still depending on the estimate. So while still larger than some versions of Windows it is far removed from what it was even just a couple of years ago.
