Um well least MS fix's their flaw's in a timerly manner. crApple is hard pressed to do it within 2 months most the time. That is WITH the code to fix it within the day of a flaw being found.
Flashback virus?
Before people say it wasn't a flaw in apple's software, yea it did effect windows as well. But windows had fix the next day and took Apple 8 weeks to release the fix.
Its easy for everyone to ignore AMD and their own faults and focus on intel or nvidia as sole reason. Fact is AMD has done a lot of it to themselves. As said in another post on this story, they have did a lot of things wrong from drivers for their hardware being lack luster, to cpu's that are slow compared to intel and use a lot more power, to just straight up lies in benchmarks claiming they are as fast as the competition. Most those benchmarks they use are ones that are gpu accelerated which they have big advantage in vs intel atm.
"The fall over the last 10 years is due to Intel, who used illegal practices and ethically questionable engineering decisions to knock AMD off their roost while still keeping them in business."
That is what a fanboy would say, but ignore the fact that AMD when they got the lead sat on said lead and got beat down. On top of last 3-4 years claiming so many things about how great their product would be, how fast it was gonna be but when release comes out it fails to meet all the claims AMD made on it. AMD needs fire their Marketing and PR department's, they been a constant source of embarrassment for them. Making claims of how great their new product will be but when real world use comes in to play it falls way short, Case in point the Fury X. Claimed to 30% faster then a nvidia gtx980ti but when real world settings came in to play not the cherry picked settings AMD used to make those claims it was even to even 10% slower in some things.
Sad part is if anyone makes an ad blocker for iOS it will be removed from the app store since well Apple can't let anyone make an app that competes with something they make.
60grand? you mean more like 80-100grand. Remember the Apple tax can be as much as 3x normal car's. Other issue with Apple cars is service as no one will have expertise to take care of them outside the over priced Apple dealer. So probably be like owning a Bentley or Mercedes-Benz. Cost a fortune to maintain.
If you can't get 100k+ outta your car, then it shows you don't jack shit about how to take care of your car/truck. My brothers last 2 trucks he was at 200k+ on them, engine sounded like it was brand new and no engine was never rebuilt.
No doubt, AMD loves to tout open this and that but keeps their stuff closed as long as possible.
example, AMD said mantle was gonna be open source for since day one, did THEY ever release the source for it before killing development for it?
all that pollution is from the cars and manufacturing in china that pretty much goes unregulated. Democrat's like to spend $ like welfare mom's hence why we could be in same boat the way they are spending in to bankruptcy.
What they do is when you connect to your slingbox to watch. An add will play at the start kinda like youtube has some times. They don't replace the comercials on tv channels.
This is why i still use the windows program they killed off some time ago when ever possible. that webui crap they forced on us with ad's is complete bs.
Another Act wrote up and passed by the Democrat party that is being abused. They say it was not ment to be used like that, well its not how its ment to be used its how it can be applied. Good job democrat party of setting this whole BS up in 1965 when you controlled the senate and house.
Problem is look at crApple's history they been doing it too against samsung a lot. SO can't really side with crApple when they guilty of doing the same thing, then refusing to pay on patents they know they stole.
I had to learn console commands to tick flags when quests bugged out. ONLY GAME I HAVE EVER played i have had go through such BS. As for bug fix packs? pfft yea right few and far between when those ever reared up. Would took me 6+ months to beat the f'ing game with that snail pace crap.
"DRM is a means of limiting the distribution of a purchased (or licensed) digital file by the owner (or licensee)."
Well if you think about it locking it to Apple devices that is limiting the distribution by Apple so in a Sense it IS DRM.

Satellite tv will be next in the cross hairs for this as they do same thing but they are kinda worse.

Um what makes you think the democrap's aint equally involved with this or even the ones pushing this?
Biggest ones to blame is the Obama admin
Yea they can remove google app's if they want and do what Amazon does. Nothing forces those companies to have them on the device.
That they didn't come up with this law first, they still might.

No one will buy an Apple branded car that cost's as much as most tesla's.

AMD should invested in linux driver then all the money on their failed project to fragment the market with mantle.
AMD doesn't make the chip's, they just license the IP for them which doesn't make them very much.

Given how democrat's have been running things we will be the same way when we are in-debt enough that china ends up owning the country anyway.
First, If you ever seen pictures in china of the pollution sadly that number isn't a big surprise

All the hype around this card "its a titan killer" and it was gonna wreck nvidia and in the end it just matches.
