That means that if marketing decides you can bloat the thing to make people buy newer phones you can do it.
The IT market is based on incompatibility so fragmentation helps. Google, unofficially, can't care less, they are winning against apple, they basically have the mobile equivalent of windows plus crippleware. Luckily the free software movement helps against this abomination, but the battle will be everlasting.
Simplification: the act of removing features that are deemed unnecessary, redundant, irrelevant. Simplification (UI design): the act of removing or transforming discoverable, one-step, procedures in opaque, 3-step-after-reconfiguration procedures. See Gnome, Windows, OSX. Hopefully not KDE.
If Microsoft, or anybody else, cared for the UX, we wouldn't have to relearn how to do the same old things every time a new edition of their systems is released.
When you read user experience, think about user lock-in through interfaces. Everything coming from MS Apple Canonical Gnome et al. will be understandable.
It's also a matter of perspective. Systemd runs on the kernel not the other way round. So we have Linus upstream, watching the lovely daisies and the froglets jumping around, then Lennart & C pissing in the stream, then a bunch of devs/sysadmins thinking "WTH Lennart", then, downstream, the unsuspecting masses.
This controversy is over, Stallman was right but not in the way he hoped. It's a good idea to call it GNU/Linux to distinguish it from Android/Linux and the upcoming GNU/Systemd (I guess they will end up reimplementing the bootloader and the kernel, all for performance reasons).
Sorry but you must take the transcendent into account, like you have to take the result of a division by zero into account, if only to say it is something that does not belong to the set of numbers. Unfortunately current atheism is about attributing qualities to the transcendent like all religions do and then pretending they are more rational than them. And nobody bats an eye, and calls sheep the churchgoers, LOL! The simple choice of not believing is sufficient, without attempting proofs that fail the first time they attribute something to the transcendent (out of scope error, nothing of this universe is necessarily defined outside of it, not even the most basic principles, without introducing assumptions, which means you build a new religion).
You see, when you hit an asteroid it fragments in many little ones that begin spreading around, so you have to hit all of them too and escape from them at the same time, and every now and then an alien ship comes around and start shooting creating even more chaos.

I don't doubt your word but I can't understand. If I sell you a tire I am not liable if the gearbox breaks down. If I sell you a laptop with no OS I should bundle a diagnostic cd rom and if the hardware passes the test I should have no obligation supporting whatever stuff you installed on it, it is not my problem.
In fact I'd be happy buying a pc like that, all my support questions have been like "The restore dvd is ruined or somehow failed, I have the original OS serial number and want to reinstall, wat do?" and the answer, *crickets*.
Insurance companies will no longer need to profile all people, they will simply ask their pals in the health sector to lock the heart rate for life insurance ("No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'!") and put it in HNGGGGGGGG mode if their pension funds customers don't obey the proper life expectancy:)
Your thesis is substantiated by another dramatic close encounter with a missile happened more than 3 decades ago in Italy, and to this day we don't know who killed all those people, source, and if the trail of suicides-bad luck that oppressed the witnesses is entirely casual.

OF COURSE IT DOES.

Your argument is invalid.

So specs may matter.
But, if they got whacked, they obviously did not duck enough.

Oh ok, he is a Traitor capital T because he does not stay. Now let us talk about the ones whom were exposed by him. How do you call them?
Dohzer pls.
Should have got a 2.5 power extension cord and moved the hardware.

The OS?

Dude, "But it's commonplace in Japan" is an argument *against* something, not *for* something.
Sorry I haven't heard the original, Italians dub it better.

Besides, that guy doesn't know ANYTHING.

LEAVE ASTEROIDS ALONE.

You got it, there is. :)
Well, kinda
