Proud != !Ashamed , common misconception.
The word "proud" should be reserved for something positive that one has accomplished, not something that one just is.
I bet you never said that when someone claimed to be proud to be American. Not once.
The GUI rarely helps me focus on my tasks, especially with files.
Finding a bunch of files, matching them to a set of parameters and then doing operations on them is not easiest to do with a GUI. It would be wonderful if it were, but its simply not.
Sorry to hear your GUI sucks. Other people don't have your problems however, and they also don't have to look up how exactly you get "find" to do what it supposedly can do.
Bah. The magsafe connector is a gimmick. The advantage of the magsafe connector was supposed to be that it would release easily from the laptop in the event of a snag. This does work most of the time. Not always, but most of the time.
What is falsely implied is that other laptop connectors don't come out under such conditions. In my experience, this is not true
Well, unless your laptop is to heavy to be mobile, the power cords will disconnect - after they send the laptop over the table edge.
To somebody with just a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. To someone without a brain, OS X looks like a hammer without a handle. Unlike you, I have a point.
Yeah, that's kind of my point. If you're releasing a major version a month or so before you launch new products, you'd hope you have the OS for those products squared away.
This sounds like they pushed out iOS 8, ran into problems and released iOS 8.0.1, and apparently 8.0.2, and then 8.0.3.
And now they're rolling out 8.1.
That is a lot of churn in a relatively short period of time. Which tells me I'm still going to wait a while, because I expect 8.1.1 or 8.2 to appear within a month or so.
Well, that's nothing on Google. Supposedly Android 5.0 Lollipop will launch 11/3 - but 5.0.1 was already reported in the wild over a year ago: http://www.phonearena.com/news...
... Karjaluoto doesn't recall many such changes that we didn't later look upon as the right choice....
The opinion of whether or not it was the right choice is severely clouded by the fact that in the Apple environment, there is No Choice. The user Has To go along with what Apple decides is The Future.
Yawn. Yeah, there were no external Floppy drives (which few people bought, and fewer used). There also were no external CD/DVD drives (which few people bought, and fewer used). You couldn't use CRT after Apple stopped selling them. And all those changes proved to be horrible for the user, because everybody but Apple still uses floppies and CRTs.
Including things like their version of Androids Intents (that they call "extensions")....notifications pane from iOS (stolen from Android, natch)...
Right, so you're upset that Apple is using plugins, extensions, and notifications because all of those things were invented by Android developers. Sure.
You seem to have "accidentally" forgotten to quote the objectionable part:
However, since they come from iOS, they ["extensions"] only work with apps that are sold through the App Store.
Anything that "only works with... the App Store" (except maybe for updating the OS itself and first-party applications) is a problem, because it's a step towards locking out anything that circumvents the App Store.
You are right in so far as he should have totally focused on the part that absolutely isn't true and ignored the other things that aren't true either. Hunh?
A $30 cable, expensive Thunderbolt chipset, expensive peripherals, and you won't be getting actual 10 Gbps full duplex Ethernet through Thunderbolt, nor will it work a damn without an actual 10 Gbps Ethernet controller somewhere in the system.
Keep on keepin' on, though.
Having a NO fucking brain necessitates being a Mac hater. If you think you're getting anything near the capabilities for full duplex 10 Gbps Ethernet over Thunderbolt without a true 10 Gbps Ethernet controller in the system, you're a damned fool. If you do have a 10 Gbps Ethernet controller in the system, just use it directly.
FTFY, and you just proved it. And you will never be able to tell, because you are so fucking stupid.

In case anyone doubts this: ratio of "normal" patients vs. infected healthworkers
third world: ~ 10:1
Texas: 1:2
These things are evolutionary. The initial rate of patients to infected healthcare workers is much higher. The current 10:1 ratio in Africa is after all the healthcare workers using poor infectious disease protocols have been killed off by ebola. It's purely survival of the fittest.
Same reason Cuba weathers hurricanes better than Louisiana did after Katrina. Cuba gets hit by several hurricanes every year, so any buildings which would been blown away, dams which would have failed, etc. have already done so long ago. The ones still standing remain because they are strong enough to survive a hurricane. Any government officials who were incompetent at post-hurricane recovery have long been filtered out. OTOH the previous major hurricane to hit Louisiana before Katrina was some 30 years ago. A lot of bad structures and incompetent officials can build up over 30 years.
So how come the rest of the US fares much better than Texas? There were 5 patients evacuated to the US so far, and nobody got infected. Hey, maybe it's not all of Texas but just this hospital - but they sure fucked up.

It's already normalized, that's why no one gives a rat's ass.
Yeah, this whole "discussion" is proof of that. Obviously nobody cares.

I was under the impression that 'marriage' was involved in stable child creation, and raising.
Less than half of all marriages result in kids. Far less than end up in divorce. Marriage is all about making divorce attorneys rich, not about kids.
The Public's Best Interest is none of his concern. The Shareholder's best interests are his concern. Period. End of Story.
Your period is of no public concern. If you weren't a complete fucking hypocrite, you would have kept your mouth shut.
Now I have a really good reason to keep myself outta the ominous Apple "ecosystem". Fuckers...
So according to you, being a homophobe is the best reason not to buy Apple products. Wow.
The most despicable thing on Earth is being like you.
Else we wouldn't have dozens of posts claiming they couldn't, yet still post to let us know.

The problem is that 1% that's left. The software that simply must not exist because Apple doesn't want it to exist.
As opposed to the software that Google doesn't want it exists and blocks from Google Play? Like add blocking? Or Flappy Bird clones?
According to the page you told me to read, it means
"If your app doesnâ(TM)t offer much functionality or content, or only applies to a small niche market, it may not be approved."
That's actually pretty useful information, if you want to design something targeted at a relatively small community, perhaps steer clear of Apple.
Or you use one of 5 Options for Distributing Your iOS App to a Limited Audience
How are we supposed to see the gremlins?
To somebody with just a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. To someone without a brain, OS X looks like a hammer without a handle. Unlike you, I have a point.
Apple's success is driven by your ignorance? How do you do that?
Yeah, that's kind of my point. If you're releasing a major version a month or so before you launch new products, you'd hope you have the OS for those products squared away.

If there were a vaccine, the anti-vacciners would be all over it.
The bit about "tomorrow" is just marketing spin to make it sound like some awesome new thing, when the font itself was made in 1957.
Some truly amazing marketing there, considering the "tomorrow" bit didn't come from Apple.
Only on Slashdot can you get modded up for claiming an article slamming Apple is actually an ad for Apple.

The thread is not about Yosemite, in case you have not noticed but about the new Maverick. Mac OS X 10!
So why exactly are we to take anything you say seriously?
