Indeed it is true. We were betrayed. Coincidentally, I was interview maybe 1 or 2 years before the general public went ape shit crazy about systemd by a huge firm in the hotels/hostels business, and they were quite adamant they had Linux, but needed fresh blood to go full FreeBSD. At the time, I did not get it actually, silly me.
If you say so. Here people do not have much disposable income and the 2nd hand iphone market is HUGE. Get it, people do not really care about android either technically or as a status symbol.
After so many comments, and people have not realised this is not about consumer loyalty or helping or deceiving the customer...this is about killing a very active 2nd hand market.
This goes deeper than this. With the subscription model they can finally sell the same music multiples times to the same extended family, and make you pay multiples times for the same media content every time the technology changes. And create a far more efficient artificial scarcity model than you have nowadays.
Gyms are a scam. The point is that they count on the people that buys the service on the impulse and rarely if ever set their feet there, hence the automatic monthly payments and the obligatory period.

The details are already vague, however as far as I recall, Google was so much better at finding things, and altavista links were getting stale and polluted with a lot of rubbish in between. It took so much more effort to find links related to your actual search in Altavista.
Your parents were very lucky, I just formatted the hard disk and installed several versions of home and enterprise Unix, and even OS/2 because even back then I hated MS.
Not exactly. Win95/98 had to maintain compatibility with a lot of hardware and softwre, and hence replicated *most* of the functionality of DOS into what they called if memory does not fail me "protected mode". However, from times to times they had to go all way down to protected mode, either for the real mode sound card drivers, or for an hard disk that had not the 32 bit "mode" activated, or for a TSR or a virus you had running (no kidding)...shit like that. And Win95 depended a lot on real mode for I/O at least, the situation was only slightly better under win 98. The 95 does not running and needing DOS was a lot of BS talk from MS.
Well I was trying to avoid DOS/Windows all the time, and to be fair tried to use W95 as a development platform, and even did there my thesis. However it did not take long that it was not stable as a design and a moving target for MS and cronies to make money, and I moved again to Unix afterwards.
If you say so. I remember clearly playing with hard disk jumpers of different manufacturers to have two disks works, and they were picky about who should be the master and the slave. I do not know why, I do not miss those problems.
Nor often competent technicians to run it, and infra-structures like it is the 90s again.
My main question is about libre computing. The alternatives are either refurbished obsolete hardware, expensive or a sham at the moment.

Who cares about android??

It is got nothing to do with renting, or brand loyalty, iphone users are one of the most loyal. It is about killing the 2nd hand market.
I do the same, and it is none of your f business.

I actually could get an anonymous SIM, but it would be of little use when my IMEI is already associated with me.
New civil disobedience pastime, interchanging new iphones directly at the store with random strangers.

I wonder how yahoo still exists and how people still user their services despite all the security problems they had in the past.
Use the domain of the jour of mailinator anytime you have the urge to write some novel on that forms.

It ran perfectly well, you just had an "error message" courtesy of Microsoft. I have seen it too...
sorry, all the way down to real mode.
