Just to point out even more how this is false, Newegg has a combo of the most expensive i5 CPU that they sell that has the CPU, mobo and 8 GB of RAM and it is still just under $400. As I expected, you were basically either making up that price or you purposefully tried to pick expensive parts while using a Newegg combo for the price you got for the 7850k. And that i5 CPU in that combo is way faster than the 7850k.
and they still do not allow the default email or browser app to be changed.
No, but companies can do like what Google does and just tightly integrate all your apps together where clicking something in one launches another one of your apps to handle it.
Are "alternate webkit-based browsers" capable of adding support for HTML5 elements and attributes that Apple chose to leave out of WebKit for iOS? Are they allowed to associate themselves with the http: and https: schemes?
No. Hence why I said that they can't have a third-party web engine. They have to use the system-provided WebKit.
I didn't think so.
And I never said they could so I don't see the relevance.
Apple do indeed (still) have an infrequently enforced policy about competing apps
Such as?
That there are lots of alternative web browsers based on their webkit does not suggest 'competing' browsers, because those browsers are unable to meaningfully compete.
They can't compete on the rendering engine, sure, but users don't actually give two shits about that. The browsers compete on the other features they can provide.
Apple doesn't allow any application competing with their own as far as I know
And what you know amounts to very little apparently. When was the last time you heard anything about iOS? 2009? What Apple doesn't allow is third-party web engines, but they allow alternate webkit-based browsers. There are probably hundreds of such applications in the App Store.
The problem is that they are essentially rudderless without Google's yearly handouts. If Mozilla had diversified their revenue long ago they wouldn't be in this situation of throwing tons of shit at the wall to see what sticks.
Of which I never said otherwise. Of course it uses the active digitizer to get the pressure sensitivity, etc. But the screen is ultimately still capacitive.

There's a $230 or so combo for the 4460 and mobo.
The equivalent i5 setup is going to be $450.

I can get a 7850k with a good board and 8 gigs of ram for $236 bucks. The equivalent i5 setup is going to be $450.
$450? Hahaha. No. For 285 bucks you can get an i5-4460, and ASRock B85M-HDS mobo and 8GB of RAM from Newegg.
Because its their own site and they can post whatever they want?
I don't think anyone said specifically but that's what everyone assumed.
Intel announced Xeons with FPGAs last year.
In what way is my post a "troll"?
The last few places I've worked that use Jira for have used Enterprise Tester. Seems to do an okay job for the QA people.

In most of the US, they'd have no such rights. For some reason, they think that's a good thing.
Nothing is funnier than someone who is actually mad that other countries might *gasp* not just allow employers to fuck over their employees at will.
Because open sourcing has nothing to do with giving up copyright. Sun didn't give up their copyright when GPLing it and Orcale now holds it.
It's not and they didn't say it was. Chris Roberts worked at Origin. That was the joke.
It's sad that people are more concerned with what companies are doing with their information than the government.
Because people aren't allowed to be concerned about both things? Why this false dichotomy?
and they still do not allow the default email or browser app to be changed.

If they had compelling content people would pay for it directly. Sites like ehow and Buzzfeed create crap but can stay around due to clickbait spam.
No what will happen is shitty sites full of fluff and click bait will go out of business. Nothing of value will be lost.
Why is this modded up? Stingrays are mostly for metadata capture. End-to-end encryption is completely orthogonal to that.
But you thought it was credible to give Kissinger one?
Are you accusing Fuckerberg of lying to people? Blasphemy!
Being rhetorical, right?
