The popular vote is not how elections in the US work. They've never worked that way. Go back to school and learn something about how the electoral process works.
You lost. Get over yourself. I'm already tired of "oh my life is over. I just want to curl up in to a ball and whine like a bitch". Seriously, grow up.
It's possible my information is incomplete, sure. I'm not above counter-arguments.
I'd be interested in how we know Samsung was bribing people, and what the details of the bribe actually were. How many of them have any sort of evidence backing up the claims or bribery and coverup that are being made here? Are the accusations being made on the basis of hard evidence, or are they being made on the chance that someone could get a payday?
Yes there's a difference in the severity of the problems as they relate to public safety - unless of course you're trying to make a critical phone call using a defective iphone 4. However there's also a difference in how the customers were treated. Apple customers are habitually treated like shit. Of course this is only one example of a company that thinks so little of its customers that it would blame them for a problem they created.
Samsung is bending over backwards to try to make this right, which is a lot more than some companies do. Yeah they fucked up, but I have to give them some credit for the steps they've taken. At no point did they try to shift blame off of themselves or downplay the problem. It's almost refreshing to see a massive company take responsibility for their actions.
When the first generation Macbook airs showed up with defects that caused overheating leading to the machine throttling what did Apple do? Point you at their overpriced Apple Care solution. When the iphone 4 showed up with a defective antenna design? You're holding it wrong!
It's a non-story with nothing interesting to say because nobody knows enough to be able to talk about it. What the fuck is the point of articles like this?
It's bordering on pseudoscience now thanks to people publishing shit paper after shit paper with results that can't be reproduced in order to keep the funding flowing.
Seriously, fuck Nick Denton, and fuck Gawker. The only way it could have turned out better is if Hogan ended the court case with a leg drop.
Peter Thiel is a hero for helping to take out this tabloid that insisted on masquerading as a legitimate news agency.
No they don't. The hardware is often the same shit you'd find in most PC laptops (albeit a generation or two behind). The only difference is they wrap it up in an aluminium unibody shell and that gives it the illusion of being some kind of premium product. There is nothing magical or special about their hardware.
What this article misses is that the housing market is still crashing. This product is only good for home owners, and with more and more people renting there is no incentive to invest in things like this.

Try to enforce your own policy on the network and see how much it belongs to you.
When you spend all your time trying to live forever, you tend to forget to live life.
Did you even read any of the DNC leaks? You're DEFINITELY being manipulated.
Neither is Trump. You're just whining so loud you can't think objectively about any of it.

Let the liberals whine. They'll eventually get over themselves.
Slashdot editors have been broken for as long as I can remember. Even calling them editors is a bit of a stretch.

Seeing some strong bias in your sources. Is there one that isn't known to be a staunch Apple supporter?

If Wayne's World taught us anything, it's that there's only one thing that goes "Schwing!".

Apple: the courage to shave.

is that so? I'm sure some psychology is science, but the fact is that a lot of it isn't.

Except now Nick Denton isn't a millionaire, so it's wins all the way around.

The CPU sure is though. Macs are habitually behind the PC in all the ways that actually matter to performance.

Apple's idea of value is hilariously distorted. Let's charge more than everyone else and deliver less.

This is exactly right. If facebook actually wants to compete, it needs to separate itself entirely from the new brand.
