    I recently purchased an Android phone, but it wasn't interoperable with my IDevice. So I purchased another IDevice.

    Eh, no? Can you try to gibber even less coherently? I stopped bothering because you keep contradicting yourself horribly. There's no point in continuing this. Besides, we seem to have nothing in commong, you being a Windows user and stuff.

    I always wondered what's the point of such stickers at all. My laptop had multiple, and one particularly big-ass sticker which would basically list the entire "spec" of the machine.

    I think the only people benefiting from those stickers are thieves...

    If you don't have antivirus, you shouldn't have a computer.

    Now here's living proof that there /are/ such people on slashdot after all, seeing this one even thinks Windows and computers are someone the same.

    How is it even relevant that recent versions of Windows don't do it? Obviously they didn't run a recent version, and honestly, that'd be just as bad.

    Perhaps you should learn about modern OSs

    I have quite in-depth knowledge about modern OSs.

    before you lecture others on them.

    However this is about Windows, so i don't see how modern OSs are relevant here.
    Besides, even if you're very proficient in using Windows, you don't know shit about OS concepts. Feel free to prove me wrong.

  18. Re:At least the great thing about science... on New Study Shows One-Third of Americans Don't Believe In Evolution · · Score: 3, Informative

    No. Science doesn't directly deal with reality, but with models of reality. A theory can perfectly and correctly describe a model, yet it might turn out the model doesn't model reality quite accurately [or not at all].

    Yes, because supposing there's a creator, the obvious question is ``who created that creator, or did they evolve randomly''? I.e. you're back at the start.

    Obviously it's easy to do so, given it's an open system. There are probably 5 different ways of doing so.
    You're missing the point, though -- the point is, windows does it *by default*, while unix doesn't. (I'm sure linux will, some day)
