My karma was at maximum for the last 5 years or so, and frankly I couldn't care less where it was.
With that being said, proper journalism is proper journalism, and it should include at least one reference for the main subject of TFS.
But /. is run on assumptions:
- everyone who visits is from the USA
- everyone who visits is a Linux aficionado or more
- Most visitors are Apple fanbois.

Sounds good. What is it again?
I clicked links. Looked at the article. They all talk about systemd but none really define it, as in "systemd is this and does that, and is different because :reasons:".

So for any other systemd-impaired readers, click this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S... - because TFS, TFA and links from them don't tell you much in this regard.

Oh, look, another dude who thinks can twist my words.
The world is overflowing with your likes. Smart enough to try and twist words but not smart enough to succeed.

I never said "cheap" and I never said "trash".
What Android offers is VARIETY. From cheap trash to stuff better (and sometimes even pricier) than iPhones.
Android is the only OS which powers phones as cheap as 50 bucks (or even free if you get a low-priced plan) or as expensive as 1000+. Also it powers devices with a huge variety of screen formats, sizes and resolutions, even resolutions as weird as iPhone's. At the same time, you get to choose between phones with embedded SD cards and/or batteries or replaceable SD cards and/or batteries. Most can be easily rooted, modded, altered, hell you can build your own flavor if that's your thing. They don't stop you from doing whatever the hell you want with the OS (if you have the knowledge, of course) and AFAIK (but YMMV) they're next-to-impossible to brick. I have a HTC desire S which I actually tried bricking (to no avail).

Oh and guess what, I don't need to install any software to use my phone as mobile data storage. I just connect it through USB or bluetooth and I'm good to go.
