  1. He doesn't even have Jobs's ego. Ego usually describes a person's inflated idea of their own genius. Jobs really was about as good as he thought he was.

    You have a vehicle that gets 500 MPG? Somehow, your claim is less than believable.

    You are an idiot. This was done by the original author of the software. You could write whatever you want in your little license and he could take that and inject ads into it. I mean, he could remove that bit and release his software.

    Seriously, man. Turn your brain (back) on.

    You're right. Instead of taking two minutes to solve your problem, you could take the same two minutes to put a bullet in your brain. Then you've solved everyone else's problem, too.

    If you don't want apps to track you, set the permission once and never bother again. For navigation apps, I agree that force-quitting is the only sane option. I do that, too.

    iOS does not swap RW memory to storage. If there is memory pressure, frozen apps are killed to reclaim their memory.

    Sorry, but you're an idiot of the first order. So extremely stupid that someone must have helped you with the big words.

    The entire point of not force-quitting is that launching an app is more resource-intensive than unfreezing it. So launching a 100 or so apps at device start would waste a lot of resources that will probably never be used. Very few people use all the apps they have installed all the time. Your "suggestion" would waste tons of resources, instead of saving them. Anyone who isn't an extreme moron understands this.

    iOS has no swap. It memory maps static resources, such as the code and the DATA sections of an executable, but it doesn't swap read/write memory to storage. This is done both for performance (even with SSD, swap is expensive) and because there's a limited amount of storage available.
