Where do I go to buy a 'pocketable' Mac that runs a real operating system? The only choice for that size of gadget from Apple continues to run a toy operating system.
So where are your fucking papers, dude? You're standing in the road, after all. Don't move to the sidewalk. We want to see your papers if you're gonna stand there, too.
It's necessary for the security of the community. You don't want to be branded unmutual, do you?
It was a nice slippery move to stick the word 'sane' in there about the 'car inspections' bullshit. My car hasn't been inspected since I bought it at the dealership. Fuck your 'sane' bullshit, It sounds like if I don't belong to your party I am 'insane.'
That's how they shuffled people off to the gulags, you know. Declare them insane and anti-social. Who but a crazy person wouldn't be for the People's Revolutionary Government?
It's disappointing to find HR jargon being tossed around on Slashdot. Almost like a leap back to the Dice days (Dice is a headhunter operation that owned Slashdot for awhile.)
Shouldn't you HR types be off somewhere collating resumes to feed into the shredder or something?
Your criticism of insecurity has little to do with security in an httpd. It can be easily expanded to demanding that all machines connected to the net 'have their papers in order.' China loves advocates like you.
It's an opportunity to educate people. Clearly there is web content Google doesn't want people to have access to. Stuff that they can't monetize at all, because it's just out there because somebody put it there and told an httpd to deliver to anybody who connects. That is apparantly BAD now.
An opportunity for other search tools and agents of communication to grow and thrive.
Google wants content transferred 'securely' because they have their agents spread widely (googleanalytics, etc.) and don't want middlemen competing with them. They have control of the scripts, why should any other entity?
When you run real business software that only has Windows clients, and you want to just freeze your workstations in place because they are just data appliances, old Windows boxes make sense.
For your ego box in your 2 bedroom apartment (now that you don't live in a dorm anymore) whatever OS suits you is fine. You're just browsing and playing games, not trying to find out how many p/n 10040-7345 cables are in stock (or pulling up a BOM to determine how soon production can make more) while a customer waits on the phone.
Hay, be fair now. Linux is held together with gaffer's tape. Much more expensive than 'duck' tape and it doesn't leave tape residue when you have to untape and retape it, over and over.
I recently bought a legit retail-box copy of Win7 pro on eBay to replace the retail box copy of Windows 10 I put on the system I built from parts last year. I paid $110 for the Win10 at a local retail store, and it was just that bad on a full desktop system. Good for 'light' use on a laptop, piss poor on a real work box with EDA tools and development stuff.
You've gotta buy a legit Win7 at this point, because Microsoft is hammering warez installs now with WGA. I got tired of fighting that and made the terrible mistake of buying the Win10 retail box. Shoulda bought the 7 right then and not messed around. Microsoft has probably ramped up the WGA to drive people off 7.
Nope, it's for people who want a linux working environment, on an abstracted hardware layer so all the drivers can remain the responsibility of Windows. So all those closed off bits of hardware in the mobile device market are available to you.
Linux is almost the only OS that didn't adopt the BSD stack. For interoperability's sake it just makes sense not to reinvent the wheel for networking code.
Unfortunately, there isn't a 'NeXT' of mapping software to take over at Apple, the way that Apple was rescued from thier rather wretched old MacOS after they spent many millions internally trying to make the next-gen MacOS.
They aren't really very good at developing software internally.
Apple's culture makes them incapable of seeing the experience of average ordinary people. Their entire focus is on skimming high payers in a larger market. It would be nearly impossible for them to capture more than a minority market share; you can't "capture the lion's share" of the revenue that way. Those dirty ordinary people would start showing up in the store acting like they have the right to afford an iPhone. It could even drive away the traditional Apple snobs.
Google rolls out updates in a more granular fashion. People always carry on about 'orphaned' 3 year old Android phones, but the latest Google Maps is something you get all the time from Google Play, not something tied to the Android version your phone has.
Apple's culture panders to a small higher-paying slice of the population. So their mapping will be uneven, concentrating on the 'richer' areas and missing entire swaths of the midwest. The fact that this new effort will just cover northern California at first is telling. Don't take your Apple phone on your trip across Missouri and into Kentucky. Forget about Alabama, because Apple will.

Wow! A new derivative "AMD vs. Intel" style tussle we can get into.

The term 'ghosted' sounds like HR jargon.

Best selling. Don't Meddle with reality, though, it's not their best work.
You can crapflood about President Trump on Slashdot, but it doesn't make you even a third-rate troll.

Windows 7 comes with phone-home upgrades now.

Lots of people use PIC parts. Technically, there was a huge boost in usage a few years ago when Microchip bought Atmel.
They're peripheral components.
It isn't 1986 anymore. The Mac isn't innovative.

But those others are building more coal plants to,day as we discuss this.
Google downranks it's value as a search resource by involving itself in arfificial de-ranking.
Pathetic; not worth flinging poo at.
Aw, you'll never get it. Never mind.

And for gods sake don't throw stones at the guy with the glass phone!

Once you're dependent on a single companie's products is when your life gets sucked out of you.
