All the security fixes and no I don't want to install a custom ROM where half the hardware doesn't work. I did look into that believe me. Stupid fanbois. The state of Android updating is crap and pretending it isn't or telling me to install some random piece of software doesn't absolve the world's largest smartphone manufacturer from its incredibly poor record.

How long did it take to get KitKat to the Note 2? An eternity and it's not even the latest version. The last thing I want is that same disinterest in customer service being applied to my network equipment.

And they were all yellow.

So what. Firefox isn't the only browser. Good luck getting them to work in older versions of IE.

Microsoft are not planning to toss the whole .NET ecosystem. I have no idea why people keep believing and repeating that shit.

I wonder if Gary McKinnon can use that defence? After all he hacked into the US DoD looking for evidence of a UFO cover up.

Why shouldn't people be entitled to leisure time and disposable income? You make it sound like something terrible instead of the perfectly reasonable expectation of having a life outside work and the ability to enjoy the fruits of their labour. People buy Chinese because either they can't afford more expensive items (and this is a vicious circle as more people see their living standards go down due to outsourcing) or because there's no alternative because most corps have outsourced to make a few people richer without actually reducing prices that much.

People like you fail to realise that a society built on consumerism will collapse without consumers. The success of businesses in the developed world is largely due to such evil lefty ideas such as leisure time and disposable income. Good luck replacing free spending US citizens with Indians on low pay with no free time.

Agreed but the post I was responding to was implying that developers have it harder than nurses.

No they just have to clean up various bodily fluids and watch people suffer and die. Nurses deserve to be treated well.

Only in the consumer world. In the far more lucrative corporate world no-one's going to be writing 500 page documents or huge spreadsheets on an iPad.

Presumably this will coexist with HTTP/1.1 but yes I can see a lot of Javascript rewriting in my future.

Except the site in question's been up for years and working fine. It had a bit of trouble yesterday due to excess traffic but now it's fine again. This happens in the commercial world too.

This boils down to you clinging to a system that few people understand anymore because you're comfortable with it. Fine with me but most people under 60 won't know what you're on about when you tell them it's 72 degrees outside.

North Korea's official name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. By the same logic as "the Nazis were Socialists because they said so" North Korea is a democracy.
