Does Google Maps actually push adverts through the turn-by-turn navigation in the U.S. now, or did you just confuse Google with some movie you saw? So far, it seems Google's success as an advertising business comes from being less obnoxious than the others. Pushing somewhat relevant ads might contribute to that.
No, he wasn't, and hiding one's action doesn't make a consensual sexual act into rape in Sweden. There's rape, våldtäkt, and there's 'sexuellt tvång', which is still more serious than what Assange has been accused of, but not rape.
He hasn't been accused of rape. He still might be a rapist, of course, but he's neither been accused nor charged with it. This has nothing to do with Lewinsky, AGW or uncomfortable facts.
Ah, made-up stats. How convincing. You also conveniently left out the monetary investment involved in the actual publishing part. Publishing isn't free, not even for ebooks.
And yeah, you got me: I've never had a book published. However, I've contributedto a few, and have a better idea of the work involved than you do, as proven by your resorting to made-up stats.
Whatever. Most decent writers seem to prefer to go the route through the publisher instead of self-publishing, for reasons which seem obvious when you've actually published something. A publisher does a fair bit more than just marketing and pressing Ctrl-P.
Right. Since Mozilla design their browser with Windows 98 and ME in mind, and then drops support for them only at compile time. Windows hasn't been crash prone for more than 10 years.
You're not allowed to install anything on your own on iOS devices, only apps from Apple's own app store, which in your own words prohibit use of certain APIs. For someone who claims to not give a shit about Apple, you're sure willing to lie to make them look good, which makes you a shill. And yes, also a liar. You're a despicable low-life spinster, and probably don't even get paid for it. You don't only disappoint, you disgust me.
I doubt Microsoft is willing to pay for that kind of garbage. Even dumb PR agents know that frothing-at-the-mouth hysterics is an unconvincing rhetorical device. An experienced troll, however, knows perfectly well how to piss people off while acting like an obvious troll.
Why should they? It's not like their rather successful Maemo Harmattan codebase disappeared just because they abandoned the Meego project, and they've said parts of the OS (the swipe UI and Qt) will live on in future devices. Tizen looks like something no one wants.
There are thousands of shill accounts on Slashdot with excellent karma, regular fanboys like Bonch, BasilBrush and SuperKendall who spend most of their time doing freelance (and most likely free) PR for some corporation. They usually don't get troll mods unless they deserve it, and I don't think it's more deserved just because the corporation in question is Microsoft.
Right. The market share so tiny that a tablet can grow from 14% of the total tablet market to 50% of the Android tablet market, which implies at least 28% of the tablet market belongs to Android (this from the fucking summary posted above). You technical experts are pretty fucking dumb.

If PulseAudio can make your computer crash, then you've got bigger problems than PulseAudio. Probably broken audio hardware drivers.
Yeah, Fluxbox is more 1337. You don't get that with functionality.

Ubuntu 8.04 was a spoonerism for Hairy Hardon. Once someone pointed it out, it became practically impossible to remember the original.
Nonsense. You sacrifice quality by sacrificing the work of an editor. Writing isn't a one man job.

It's harmful to pay for books?

Untrue. You can't bundle your own version of webkit, and you have to use iOS's own javascript interpreter as well.
Idiot.

So apart from being locked down, iOS is entirely open. Congratulations, you just graduated in Newspeak.
And some people wonder why you Apple shills are so despised.
Correct. But people who don't learn from history tend to repeat tired old memes about it, and in distorted form.

This would actually be a great slashdot poll!
Who is the most evil?
Oracle
RMS (there is always a nonsense option)
All the non-Oracle options are nonsense.

I have to laugh at the fanboys who modded this down.

Wow, you fanbois are really great at supporting each other. A positive mod for this?
This is just some bullshit made-up stats pulled from someone's asshole. It doesn't become true through being perpetuated on internet messageboards.
