This is TEST software.
I run test software all the time. Not a single one of them sends back all my keystrokes. Stop making asinine excuses for shitty behavior.
How long does it take a user to find the correct button to dismiss a dialog? How many users use keyboard navigation rather than the mouse to navigate dialogs? How many times do the people who do use keyboard navigation hit tab without typing doing anything that would modify the field? All of these things require a keylogger (or a camera pointed at the screen) to find out and give valuable data when designing a UI.
None of which requires them to know the passwords that I enter into websites or applications. Sure, they need something to measure timing data or whether people use the keyboard for certain things. It does not require knowing all keystrokes.
Of course they are mistaken. The quote said laptops.
No one. Their own quote explicitly said "laptops".
Why is this considered informative? The sentence you quoted clearly said "laptops" not "tablets".
The Fappening.
Except GP didn't make that claim,
Sure they did. And I quote:
Unity is a good choice for Mac OS X users
The only way that Unity could be a "good choice" for OS X users would be that they would have to like it, no?
he said that Unity is more similar to OSX than Gnome is.
And then falsely claimed it would be a good choice. It is a terrible choice.
Yep, I always laugh my ass off when I hear someone make that claim. Having lefthand window buttons and a half-ass clone of the Mac OS global menus does not mean that OS X users will like Unity.
Unity is a good choice for Mac OS X users because of some similarities.
Clearly you've never used OS X for any amount of time to make such a ridiculous claim. Unity is almost nothing like OS X beyond a couple of superficial similarities that, outside of the left hand buttons, don't even functionally act the same as the OS X counterpart it is trying to mimic. Long-time OS X users tend to despise Unity for its superficial cargo cult look.
Pay no attention to the fact that what they're really doing is strongly diluting the actual poor reviews.
Better than being extorted by Yelp to pay them to do the same thing.
Already was taken to court. Yelp tactics are 'at most, hard bargaining' and not illegal, judge says.
Yep, which is why this company is having people flood their listing with snarky 1 star reviews. Basically they are cranking up the noise to drown out everything else.
The business merely turned Yelp's tactics against them. Yelp strong arms businesses into buying advertising to bury negative reviews and push positive reviews up. They simply told Yelp to fuck off and had people give them a bunch of negative reviews. What the business did is pure genius.
A bunch of hipsters and basement-dwelling whiners.
