My TV is really good otherwise and I don't have problems watching 3D at the cinema. I've spent ages messing with the settings and couldn't get a decent experience with the 3D. Don't take my experience personally. It hasn't made any difference to my life one way or another.
No they're used for complex documents, large spreadsheets, graphic design, CAD, and a vast number of industry specific software. If Windows was easy to get away from then it would already be dead.
The minute it's possible to run the niche apps used by millions of businesses in particular fields on an OS you can connect seamlessly to the servers that run the backend components of that software the migrations will start. Until then stop making out that it's merely inertia.
Let me spell this out for you because appear to be a little simple. The battery is a separate component to the rest of the device. It should not require spending any money on special tools and risking damage to the device to replace. This applies to devices by any manufacturer where battery replacement has been made unnecessarily difficult for purely commercial reasons, not just the one you so pathetically worship and defend.
Your definition of super easy must be different to mine. My old Note 2 was super easy. Unclip the back, replace the battery and reattach the back. No special tools, heat guns or gaskets involved. I don't see having to pay £79 to do the same 5 years on as a good thing. What's wrong with having a screw at each corner you can undo to remove the back?
100s of dollars? By that light then phones should be way cheaper now that they don't have those hugely expensive small screws. Except they're actually more expensive.
I don't see it as unreasonable to allow the user of a phone to change their own battery rather than having to pay someone else to do it. It wasn't that long ago that we could, this glued together bullshit is about ripping consumers off pure and simple.
That is completely wrong. People from outside the EEA need to apply for the right to settle here irrespective of whether the country is Commonwealth or not and they need a valid reason like work or marriage. Despite what our tabloid morons would have you believe, it's really hard (and expensive) to get into the UK if you're not an EEA citizen.
Since when is Twitter the entirety of social media and how many of the over 60s who voted for Brexit spend their time on there? Facebook is vastly more popular here and the Russian influence on there was ruled negligible by the Electoral Commission. If you have some compelling evidence that Putin did it then you'd better let them know, otherwise give it a fucking rest already.
Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses? What you're forgetting, Scrooge, is that health insurance works in exactly the same way as the evil socialised medical services. You wouldn't pay full price for a major operation if you were insured. The difference is that the evil socialised medical services don't have whole departments dedicated to screwing you out of the treatment you paid for.
What will leaving the EU do to change the disinterest of the UK authorities in the fate of poor people? Jimmy Savile abused more children on his own than these rape gangs and no one gave a shit about that either. That's not going to change just because it'll be harder for Polish people to come here.

Carbonite him so Putin can hang him on a wall in the Kremlin.

I have a 3D TV and I have only used that feature a handful of times because it was very difficult to sit at the correct angle for it to work properly.
As it's Christmas I'll try not to laugh at just how clueless you are.
You could replicate 40 years of software evolution including hugely complex calculation algorithms in a weekend? You must be a software salesman.

Turn off smart punctuation in your keyboard settings. Slashdot will thank you.
Until Google ditches it for their own OS anyway.

Yes I am Scrooge I give a great deal of money to charity. Marley's Ghost should be along soon.

Why should anyone have to pay any money and risk damaging their phone to replace the battery. You fanbois are pathetic.
Please turn off smart punctuation in your keyboard. Poor doddering Slashdot can't cope.

You'd be surprised how many believe that leaving the EU will stop Muslim immigration to the UK.

The newspapers in the UK are far more effective at sowing discord than a few trolls on a platform that the majority of the country doesn't use.
I'll remember to mention your kind thoughts about power to the white homeless guys I see every day.
The latest version of iOS uses "smart" quotes that an antediluvian website like Slashdot can't handle. You can turn it off in the keyboard settings.
Exactly. Why anyone would use computer software for automation is beyond me.
