I think (long) this article provides the right background.
Ignoring the premise that Android is "impossible to navigate" (which is false), as for this specific quote:
That’s fun for them; but they’ve made the mistake of not understanding how their motivation differs from the rest of us
No, I understand perfectly well, it's just that I don't care about your needs. Why should I put your needs first? Are they more important than mine? What's the end game here? If Android copies iOS then it's called out for that by people like you ("no innovation!"). If it doesn't then it's "impossible to navigate because it's not exactly like iOS".
Is there a middle road where tinkerers and "normals" can coexist on one OS? Perhaps. But maybe it's okay that to have the existing distinction between the OSes. Or maybe iOS should be more open to tinkerers? Why don't you head over there and suggest that they simply don't understand that iOS is too hard to tinker with.
(Again, I don't think there's acutally anything major that'd make Android hard to use. In fact, I recommended an Android phone for my mother, knowing full well that I risk being the designated support (which I don't want to be).
"Our goal was to analyse Tor source code and determine any vulnerabilities in the system. We set up an internal Tor network to analyze..." http://apps.washingtonpost.com/g/page/world/nsa-research-report-on-the-tor-encryption-program/501/
One slide mentioned this. It said that the node exploitation route was improbable due to technical and legal difficulties.
The on-site computer (a CP 818) REDACTED and demodulated the signal, then scanned the plaintext transmissions for key words. The system would alarm on . recognition of high-interest text, and the operators would react with special processing and forwarding routines.
So it DECRYPTED and demodulated the signal you say?
(1st para, p.18 / 373).
I did that yesterday.
Then I yelled at the phone for not charging.
Yes, this is the real crime here. Make youtube absolutely dreadful to use in a normal web browser on the desktop. I haven't seen that kind of UI degradation since shacknews abandoned black and orange.
Sound great. Wish my ISP had the same. All this 'free market' is bullshit when it's perverted with artificial region restrictions. Here's the REALITY of it straight out of my inbox:
This is an important announcement for our MYREGIONHERE users regarding pricing on the Green Man Gaming website. We are always reviewing our policies here and have decided to make a change that will help us deliver the value you expect from GMG. All MYREGIONHERE users will notice that prices on the Green Man Gaming website are now shown as GBP (£) instead of USD ($). Of course, this is a change and change doesn't suit everyone, but we hope that this will enable us to stay competitive and continue to serve your market diligently. Thanks for your continued support The GMG Team
Some times even if you can actually buy the product, you can't use it because there are further region checks down the line (e.g steam refusing out-of-region keys).
They work perfectly fine overall. Most people who complain can often be put into one of these three specific categories:
>Anecdote is not the singular of data. When aggregate studies show that more money is to be made developing for iOS
Yet neither you nor the OP provided any supporting evidence for your assertions.
Assertions are not the singular of data either.
Evidence suggests otherwise. Android vs iOS Game Myths
In the case of the XBox, they are required for access to the platform at all.
I don't know where you got that idea, or why you got modded 'informative', when the whole point of Opus is to have one codec that covers the whole range from low-band speech to full-band music, as can be seen from their handy chart.
Costly in relation to what, drunk driving?
Today is a good day for information-gathering. Read someone else's mail file.
