  1. Re:What makes Microsoft Exchange so damn special? on Gmail For Android Gets Microsoft Exchange Support · · Score: 1

    I use three separate programs on my Mac that do all these things just fine and work with each other to do those exact things. I don't see why the all-in-one aspect of Microsoft Exchange is seen as a "must" on a website where people dislike the iMac, systemd, iTunes, etc.

    I'm sorry, is there a secret underground war between Minecraft players and Facebook users that we don't know about?

    I know, right? ROT13 is much better and ROT26 is twice as good.

  4. What makes Microsoft Exchange so damn special? on Gmail For Android Gets Microsoft Exchange Support · · Score: 0

    Exchange support covers mail, contacts, and calendar data.

    Is it really that useful to merge these three types of data into a single program? This sounds as dumb as merging a music player, video player, device manager and online music/video/app store into a single program.

    We need to make lobbying illegal again before we can go any further. Otherwise other corrupt politicians will take the place of the ones we kick out.

    The process for that is extremely clear and simple. It starts with us, and our votes.

    It's not that clear and is far from simple, because in most countries the political system is now included lobbying, which used to be called bribery and used to be illegal.

    You cannot fight corporations anymore because they have more money than you and it's legal for them to outright "buy out" politicians.

    I thought we were supposed to ignore the articles, do a very rapid reading of the summary for buzzwords and then write witty comments about completely unrelated topics.

    The new Macbook, even with a faster SSD and faster CPU, still sucks and is way too expensive.

    Websites are trying to push notifications on us before we even have a chance to view their contents, how is that not abusive? I wouldn't mind seeing this kind of thing is this way on my third visit or so within a week, but otherwise it's just assuming too much.

    Imagine eating at a restaurant for the first time and before you even have the chance to order something, the waiter picks up your wallet and half-way through putting a "member club" card into it he asks you "do you want to be a member?".

    15mbps UP and 2mbps DOWN? Are you sure it's not the other way around? In any case, if you can have 15mbps down at 80$/month isn't there slower, cheaper options? 15mbps down is excessive for anything but multiple HD video streaming.

    There are a ton of QOS type tools that work much better than caps. Probably one of the best is where there are different buckets.

    I think some ISPs use this method to calculate buckets.
