... or the disease of "dictating other people's lives" called religion.
And gay people, just so you know, can reproduce. Gay does not mean sterile. And they are most often born of heterosexual parents. And homosexual behavior has been observed in a multitude of species so it seems to be "natural"...
Google aren't helping to defend their partners like Samsung, either. And Samsung is suing Apple in return so that is tit for tat.
What will happen when the Motorola acquisition if finalized is also interesting: Will it be "sorry, from now on only our phones will get the Google branding... build your own Android derivatives, you former partners you."?
No, immature is pestering someone about why they changed employer and feel entitled to an explanation. And also to criticize him for stating his opinion about Google.
Yes; his first response to being asked for a reason for switching employers should have been along the lines of: "I do not owe you an explanation. I worked for Google: That was then. I work for Microsoft: This is now. Accept that the world can change." And then he could just ignore the rest.
What is more evil about it? You say "arguably" but frankly Apple take more responsibility for iOS and iPhones than Google ever does for Android and the associated phones. Android users' problems are not their problems, not theirs to support...
It, obviously, is a highly advanced Starship fueling up on hydrogen plasma.
And then it will dock on the ISS and sell us 10 tons of Minerals, since we are a Tech level 1 Agricultural planet. The astronauts will look puzzled on captain Jameson when he asks how far it is to Zaonce.
It is not "a" religion. It is a characteristic of a plethora of world views, some of which can be called religions. It's the same way monochromatic is not a color, or not collecting anything is not a hobby.
Most declared atheists are in the materialist camp I would guess, with some weirdos in the objectivist and marxist camps.
No, creationism is taking a fictional fairy tale as truth, and intelligent design is laziness. "The world is too complex for me to study so I shall take this little shortcut so I don't have to."
I notice that religious zealots tend to do their trolling from the safety of anonymity.
Ignoring the source for a moment, it has all the hallmarks of a pantheistic religion. After all, how many of the religions we "accept" otherwise are just as made up, except so many years have passed that we no longer know who the authors were?
America has already been the "origin" of three religions: Mormonism (John Smith), Scientology (L. Ron Hubbard) and MBAism (the belief that there is a "leadership" force that lets you act as a manager in any industry), why not add the Force to that list?
"atheism" is more a label for non-God-using philosophies (like some aspects of Buddhism). If you are going to count that then you should not split up monotheism (Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Sikhism), polytheism (Hinduism, Shintoism, Catholicism:) ) or pantheism (e.g. the Force).
Maybe best of both worlds? Funding through Kickstarter, distribution via EA Partners/Origin? This new game will for instance be distributed via Steam (and a DRM-free version to backers, ref. the first update video) for the PC/Mac editions.
The difference is the iPhone has one GPU architecture (two counting the A5X in the new iPad), while Android has many, and as others have pointed out in this discussions, sometimes the drivers will lie about their capabilities, or fail in other ways to conform (e.g. the texture issues the developer mentions).
And OGLES covers Direct3D mostly, with little in the way of the other DirectX components... this is the same issue that other platforms using OGL for 3D struggles with, that 3D is just one part of DirectX and there is scant standardization of the other features a game developer might need.
So since cars were invented in Germany, you would let Germany decide over car manufacturing worldwide? Radio was an Italian invention, should they decide frequency allocations in America? The list goes on.
The "making money" problem is why they are ditching support for an old version that is not selling enough to justify the expense of answering technical questions not even necessarily related to their game. Their error was telling people why (your "just an excuse"), instead of just doing it. They instead focus on new developments which makes business sense.
It was responding to "entitled" Android users that was not "doing a good job of running" their company. Once they figured that out, they rectified the mistake.
But not by "bedroom coders" then. Sad is the day when a Slashdot poster inadvertently would indicate that software development should only be done by large professional companies.
So are you deaf to all the Android devs complaining then? Or do you stick to simple forms-based apps that will not run into any of the issues a game developer runs into?
What whiny excuse? This is a "bedroom coder" deciding on what to support. Android users are not entitled to anyone's output.
So he requires iOS and is done with it. His fault was trying to tell people why, he should just have done it without an explanation, since he does not owe that to anyone.

Yes; to people doing searches, SEO is more often an euphemism for Search Result Pollution.

Why am I bothering, you will never read this.
For the iPad, programming in Lua, $10 on the app store.

TWO in-space monoliths? What are the odds!

Show mercy, it has been ages since Stargate SG-1 aired.
Plus, it has taken them that long to render ONE triangle?

Pity he did that prior to the work on the prequel movies...

Not if he stops doing that part and spend it on revenue-generating activities, i.e. developing for iOS.

I thought that both Google and Apple were boasting about their app numbers every so often, are you suggesting the companies are lying?
