  1. The data says very much otherwise,

    How so? Where is your data that says even half of Android buyers do so because it uses the Linux kernel? And supercomputers? Why is it that you Linux people always trot out supercomputers when people are talking about desktops?

    and there's only legacy software forcing people into Windows nowadays.

    Yeah, more than a billion people. That's practically no one!

  2. The forced updates of iOS have proven to be !ore secure than the fragmented updates of Android.

    What the fuck are you talking about? iOS does not have forced updates.

  3. Re:This is my everyday OS on ReactOS 0.4.9 Is Entirely Self-Hosting, Fixes FastFAT Crashes (appuals.com) · · Score: 1

    What silly logic. When someone says "using" with regards to an OS they are talking about direct usage. Not that some rack of servers that you only interact with through a high-level application happens runs to the OS. When I go tomGoogle.com I'm using their web application being served up not the underlying OS.

    It came from the original article.

  5. Re:Megapixels aren't quality on Mobile Photography Set For Major Quality Bump With Sony's 48-Megapixel Sensor (newatlas.com) · · Score: 1

    No shit? No one was saying such a thing. Hence why the summary goes into how Sony also added improvements to light collection to talk about how the sensor is better.

  6. Re:Connect? on Facebook Confirms It's Working on a New Internet Satellite (wired.com) · · Score: 1

    Yep, this is all about Facebool being able to track and data mine you without another ISP being in the middle. End-to-end tracking of all your activity is all these companies care about.

  7. Re: Can you imagine?! USB3 on NetBSD 8.0 Released (netbsd.org) · · Score: 1

    What does USB3 have to do with gaming?

  8. Re:Those Were the Days on NetBSD 8.0 Released (netbsd.org) · · Score: 1

    How does it detract from the mission? As GP said above:

    Was FreeBSD suddenly less efficient or more bug-ridden?

  9. Re:Solaris zones? on Containers or Virtual Machines: Which is More Secure? (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Not entirely.

    Not entirely what? Re-read my post. I didn't say everyone dumped Solaris, but Solaris was relegated to niche status by most people long ago. There's a good reason Sun made OpenSolaris 13 years ago and it wasn't because they had tons of paying customers.

  10. Re:Solaris zones? on Containers or Virtual Machines: Which is More Secure? (zdnet.com) · · Score: 2

    Because most people dumped Solaris more than a decade ago?

  11. Re:I run Antivirus in/on my android... on Droppers Is How Android Malware Keeps Sneaking Into the Play Store (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    So you distrust software written by someone else yet run anti-virus which is... software written by someone else.

  12. Re:Fuchsia on Project 'Fuchsia': Google is Quietly Working on a Successor To Android (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    It is known that it is not based on Linux. It uses a microkernel called Zircon.

  13. Because different groups of people can't work on different things simultaneously?

  14. Re:Money talks on Apple iCloud Data in China is Being Stored By a State-Run Telco (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    So what you're saying is Apple is no different than pretty much all corporations? How insightful!

  15. It's not about emojis. It's about Slashdot being unable to handle UTF-8 properly despite most other websites being able to support it for nearly a decade.

  16. Re:what on Microsoft Is Making the Windows Command Line a Lot Better (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Another aspie missing the point. Emoji support would come for free if Slashdot could even properly support UTF-8. You know a thing most websites have supported for years and years if not more than a decade.

  17. Re:Powershell is powerfull on Microsoft Is Making the Windows Command Line a Lot Better (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Then why not use the command aliases that are much shorter?

  18. Re:what on Microsoft Is Making the Windows Command Line a Lot Better (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    So it can do things that Slashdot still can't. The irony will probably be lost on the people acting smug over this being "late".

    This will give all those GUI-only IT "experts" fits, of course.

    Why? For what possible reason would they even care?

    Huh? You're statement makes no sense. What does system memory bandwidth have to do with the video signal bandwidth of the display interface?

    Your math is off by a factor of 8. 51.2 GB/s is for a 64-bit bus.

    It's a Brian Fagioli article. Of course the person is clueless.

    6400 Mbps would be a 1-bit bus.
