I'd settle for having the updates not include a NEW locked bootloader. Waited ages for the 4.2 update only to have a new nasty bootloader installed along with it. Lame.
the wikipedia entry linked in the story. The last paragraph is particularly insightful:
"In 2005 two physicists from the University of Victoria released a paper[1] that suggested that the galaxy rotation problem is in fact due to inapproriate application of Newtonian mechanics, and is in fact not present if general relativity is used instead. This conclusion was quickly disputed as questionable, due to certain assumptions it made about the source of gravitational force in a galaxy. Neither of these papers have been peer reviewed."
My conclusions are that this is:
A) old news.
B) not very widely credited.
C) nothing to worry about, really.
I agree.
When I read this story I couldn't help but think: "Gee, that reads like an ad!" I didn't quite understand it, but I knew I wanted to buy POWER.
Boo!
