    Yeah, but it's like a trainwreck, you can't help it, and anyway the iPhone 6/rMBP updates are months out.

    I've always brushed off people giving me a hard time for being an "Apple fanboi," but this sort of stuff makes you think, "Oh. Right. Those people. They're the ones that are ruining it for the rest of us."

    I will never be described as subtle. Subtle is a word to you would use to describe a wuss.

     

    Are you sure you want to jump into the "i need a brick to the head from the Dog" crowd?

    If so I am here to oblige.

    And most likely the days that they highlighted some of the finer points of say, grammar and punctuation.

    But even if it were the case that he had a PhD, it would only be proving my original point that much more emphatically. I'd be inclined to say, as forcefully as fists of ham pounding away at a keyboard on an Apple forum. ;)

    diplomacy is just a cry for help romr the weak.  

     Badasses use it before they rip the heart out of their adversary only if they have to for political gain. 

    no politics here boy, Just an old fashioned slap to the ear

    Well squirrel bait, at the same time that my fingers are lightly caressing a fret or keyboard they would be reshaping your skull into a flatter shape than it is already.

    And **** you over punctuation and grammer. Seriously, is that the best you can muster?

    I see our friends from Seoul and Mountain View are out in force tonight.  DED must have hit a nerve.

    Do you think Jimmy Wales will read this and have a sudden epiphany that a community curated encyclopedia is a bad idea?  The whole point of Wikipedia is that people who supposedly know more about a topic have the freedom to correct errors.  By complaining about it on another website you completely defeat the purpose of it.

     

    Everyone (at least, everyone with any brain), knows not to trust Wikipedia as a single source for knowledge.

    Can you outline a few DED "reality obscuring" problems? There are literally hundreds of DED articles up on a wide range of subjects, so it should be easy for you to find and describe lots of serious problems if DED can outline half a dozen major problems in a single Wikipedia article. Or are you simply creating a false equivalency and not backing up your accusations with any facts in a lazy effort to discredit actual journalism?

    That’s not something to be proud of. 

    Daniel, why do you refer to yourself in the third person when you post under the Corrections user?

    There seems to be plenty of evindence that Samsung's flagship phones sell very well. From their domination of the Android-based device profits, to them being the other cellphone vendor making any real money besides Apple, too independent reports — posted right here on AI recently — of the Samsung Galaxy S4 being either the 2nd or 3rd most popular device on the US' four major carriers.
