Oh and because you said "If /r/Android says it, it must be true.", then it must be false. Did we move the conversation forward now? No. I'll add my voice to the ones who say that The Verge gives me the vibe that the

Well, if we're going solely by Apple's behavior towards their customers, then I don't trust them one bit. That's kinda beside the point though because the very simple point here is: If the tech exists, it will be used. O

Nobody here is able to prevent you from using Forbes or other similar sites. So, your analogy is way off base and that's why it sounds ridiculous to you. It would be more accurate to compare this to "removing a restaurant from a s

I actually do want to respond to your crappy insult one more time by saying that I use both Windows and Macs. And I like Windows better - the desktop OS that's used by WAY more people than OS X. So your insult doesn't even make an

> Sibling comment covers this perfectly. Which one? The one that asked if it was wrong for carriers to block updates in the first place? Right vs wrong isn't my concern here. Here is the sum of my comment: Apple used their market pr

I'm not saying that it's RIGHT that carriers block updates for anyone. I'm saying that was a rule that was in place by carriers before Apple came along and made a stink about it. Now they're complaining about Spotify try

You mean kind of like how Apple asks for preferential treatment from every other entity? You know, for things like: - Being able to install updates without asking the ISP. - Fast lanes for their services with ISPs. - Special or even FREE re

I hope that every pro-Apple techie is happy with the monster that they've helped to create by enthusiastically jumping into the Apple ecosystem over the past 10 to 15 years. If you're starting to see the light - please consider us

Incorrect. Gulp and grunt can track dependencies the same way you do anything else with it...just add the right plugin. Saying that gulp/grunt aren't real build systems because of one feature that you actually missed anyway is lik

With Bash on Windows you'll be able to run Linux apps on Windows too. So, if that works out Windows lock-in would be about even with macOS. Lower, if it works really well since hardware is no issue. But that's as a desktop worksta

"that will run perfectly on Linux, Windows and Mac with little to no setup"? No. I see no reason at all to use a Makefile in that project other than it being your personal preference. It's completely non-standard for web proj

So then the question for me is do I want to deal with Google or Amazon? I pick Amazon every time because I'd never want to depend on Google, who hates customer service and sucks at it.

Please show me the makefile for your Javascript project that will run perfectly on Linux, Windows and Mac with little to no setup. I doubt it exists. Until then, I'll stick with my Node.js build tools, thank you very much . Honest

They didn't think that a one-button mouse was a problem for the longest time either. Apple can be wrong and they're certainly wrong here. OS X window management is completely incoherent and not well thought out compared to Windows
