  • iOS 11, Android O: What Apple can learn from Google's IO17

    How about before they spend all the time on new features, they spend 5 minutes removing the 100MB download limit from the Apple App Store.  (Apple requires a wifi connection.  I have unlimited LTE data.)

    I can't tell you how stupid it is to still have this tiny limit... Yes, there is a (every changing) workaround but it's incredibly annoying.
    I don't have any real data limit either and I fail to see what's so annoying about it..
    If I really can't be bothered to wait until I am back on wifi a couple of hours or days later, I just go to App Store and hit the Update All..

    This article demonstrates everything I hate about Apple, elitism. Focus on those with money, rather than those that do not.

    Those cheaper android phones are still powerful devices, this article makes them out to be no more than a calculator.

    I thought Google also announced an easy way to update android which includes even down to graphics drivers, did I dream that?
    A $600 iPhone that still operates to full satisfaction after 5 years is cheaper than a $200 Android that after one year is crawling to a halt because of it being swamped by spamware, bloatware and dysfunctional apps..

  • Researcher calls Samsung's Tizen OS "the worst code I've ever seen"

    I assume my Samsung TV uses Tizen, and from a UI standpoint it's the best TV OS I've used. If it's insecure because of Tizen I guess I'll have to deal with the US gov't see what I watch on Netflix and Amazon Prime 

    Or with hackers gaining access to your TV and from their to the rest of your network, where they can encrypt everything and ask for ransom to decrypt again...?

    And you know "Russia hacked our election" is a lie because...?  
    Because it's simply not a true fact.

    Most of this is good analysis, but when Daniel talks about "Fake news", don't forget he's a hard core marxist.  The lies put out by "correct the record" and the Hillary campaign (eg: "Russia hacked our election!!!11!one" and that kind of BS) are considered "news" by his kind.

    "Fake news" is when the truth debunks the "Fact check" and other propaganda sites.
