taking advantage of security features my ass. When you make it more than a basic step to install a second operating system, and lock out other operating systems by default? that's not taking advantage of security, it's setting up an antitrust suit. That's not "oddball linux distribution".
"we're happy to have microsoft hold our security keys. we trust them"
- said people employed by microsoft and nobody else in the world either.
Or should I remind you of Linus's statements? The fact that redhat had to kowtow to MS is not acceptable - and it does run afoul of licensing requirements to boot. You can build your own machine but guess what happens if you install windows on it? I do happen to build my own machines in my spare time, even.
you are a perpetual strawman/apologist with regards to UEFI. go waste someone else's time.
There absolutely no reason why anyone should have to fund advertisements. I don't care for advertisements, and thus I avoid tv. It's not that hard to figure it out.
I don't care how bad it is for you, it's simply intolerable for me. I don't need to waste actual time for some other company's hope of gaining product awareness. My time is more valuable than what they want me to "pay" for their show, and it detracts from watching their show.
If I wanted to make crazy zealot ramblings, I'd start making up my facts. If you want to call me crazy, it'd help you to start acknowledging something other than implying I am crazy.
I suppose your strawman about theft is supposed to be relevant? You respond to a strawman with a strawman? Don't think for even a second that bank theft is even close to related to the issue with UEFI. That just shows how hilarious it is you accuse me of crazy zealot ramblings while you are not even capable of logical thought.
everyone has their preferences, but I think the mistake is using a TV to watch TV. Use TV as a gigantic monitor with which to broadcast what you download. Why else should anyone even want a TV? To spend 30 minutes watching a 20 minute show? Since when does that even make sense?
I don't think you have to be on drugs to know that there is no reason to watch TV on a network as opposed to IPTV or downloading the shows. If it's broadcast on public TV who even gives a shit if someone has a problem with daring to get it in the format of your choosing without commercials?
Way to incredibly lazily put out strawman. It's not that UEFI exists, it's what MS does with it that matters. I didn't think I'd have to clarify that but are you being pedantic or a troll? It is easily antitrust material.
not necessary now doesn't mean that it didn't happen, of which they were found guilty. The fact that even after they were found guilty they continued to let it happen and denied it, is why they are now seeking this to be a deterrent.
If you think MS is not doing anything anti-monopoly, I'd like to remind you of the UEFI BIOS issue.
there is approximately a 100% chance that apple will never have 100% of the market. There is actually a lot of competition in the watch market, and apple is not the only entrant - they're just like Microsoft, a late entrant to the market.
don't worry, your comment is about as valid as the article's magic math.
Basically: let's come up with a value for a market and then: let's imagine apple getting 10% of that market. Forget costs, forget how they get to 10% or how long it takes them to get there. Let's just magic that they do.
cause/reality/logic? None of the three exist. Possibly the dumbest people on businesswatch aside from everyone else at businesswatch.
the "vote with your money" Argument is a flawed argument. It implies the group that make such a decision can influence the significantly larger group who are simply accepting the microtransactions in this case. It's so invalid that it amazes me that people still make this argument.
Instead of damning EA for being shit, they damn people for buying EA's shit. How hard is this to figure out? Microtransactions are a deliberate scam designed to prey on how human beings are wired, in that small transactions have less mental cost, even if they add up significantly higher than making a single large transaction.
That's as explicit an acknowledgement that google fiber is. Let them deny it in this way as much as they want. They may as well have said the 640k is enough for anyone, line. Please, let them continue the road to denial and obsolescence, as they have been clearly panicking.
it's not better than UTP. That's always the best option, every single time. It's only better than regular wireless A/B/G/N signals due to less susceptibility to interference and being less obvious in how it can be hacked into. Someone might be able to wardrive from the street, but are they going to try to tap your power line?
heathrow has gone full TSA. Last time I went through, I got stopped from the dreaded contact solution . I was told I could take the same solution and put it into a smaller bottle, but that large bottle? has to go.
When you combine this concept with the asus padfone concept, you get a "one device to rule them all", almost entirely. I wouldn't give it more than 3-5 years for a full convergence of devices in this fashion.
Maybe 5 years ago, but this has been fairly steadily improving lately. So I'd fail to find that an excuse for anything, as dc29A fails to explain as he uses cards that are so old I'm surprised they can even handle dash. It isn't a serious rig.
oh hey, please prove a negative! That can't go wrong at any time, right?
Go ahead, make an actual argument for why creating a strawman argument asking to prove a negative is even relevant. Go on, try and think of one. I'll wait.
Why is this at all google's fault? Why should they have to police google docs in such a fashion? Blame the people who suddenly decided phishing was a good idea.
Don't forget the US gov't will reward them every step of the way. There are enormous incentives for Tesla and from the government for battery powered vehicles.

sentence: apple may be late. sentence 2: apple isn't late because they're new.
nice try, but apple isn't magically not late to the market because it's new to them.
there is approximately a 100% chance that apple will never have 100% of the market. There is actually a lot of competition in the watch market, and apple is not the only entrant - they're just like Microsoft, a late entrant to the market.

not true, not able to be validated.
you have no idea what the average user will do until this is available to them.

or powerline ethernet if you really need something "wired" but vaguely more secure and not susceptible to most issues.

well then, that brings a new question to the table:
how is this Google being involved? This is Visa, Mastercard being involved. I don't see any hard evidence of "google" anything.
which charging stations are too far apart? the 200+ that he could have reached on his trip?
Don't forget the US gov't will reward them every step of the way. There are enormous incentives for Tesla and from the government for battery powered vehicles.
who/how do you define an "illegal download site"?
Is this "they host the files", or is this torrent sites that host no files? This matters, as one of those is not even illegal.
