Microsoft - Revenge of the Zune

I personally believe that if a super intelligent AI were to find out about the Kardashians they would justifiably decide to eradicate our species.

well my amazon tablet runs android and doesn't use google services for anything but search and i was given the option to pick theirs amoung a list of several competing services. Same with chromium I choose to use google search because the competitors are shitty and/or and even more evil.

I have been considering going the other way entirely and switching to sea-monkey as I already use both firefox and thunderbird but both have been being shit upon by mozzila devs but from what i have seen seamonkey seems to get less abuse and lets me continue to use my addons.

best response to troll feeding ever

No they are just more effecient at doing what ever one task they are made to do.

Yes that is the sole reason for almost any ad supported app. Whatever other functionality they have is simply the bait used to get you to view their ads. You are the product sold to the ad networks by the app developer and then resold to the whomever is placing the ad.

you don't actually need the whole bitcoin chain history to work it has just traditionally been done that way as that is how the first client/miner worked and the pc/server/dedicated mining rig had more than enough space as storage at negligible cost in those devices but it isn't actually need now.

I think John Constantine would dispute that

we aren't talking about cpu mining but asic mining with a custom built dedicated chip the just mines the heat problems won't be as large as cpu or gpu mining

Or it could just run while it is plugged in charging, I for example plug in my tablet every night to charge have a show on while I try to fall asleep and wake me up in the morning with my alarm it takes it lets say and hour to charge it, and lets say i sleep 8 hours a night that means it could be mining while pugged in not pulling on the battery for 7 hours at a time. I plug in my phone at my desk at my desk four hours at a time and on the shelf at home at night thats a lot hours it could be mineing.

I have thought about getting a usb bit coin miner at plugging it into my personal file server at home as it sits doing nothing but waiting for me to either grab files off of it for hours at a time the power draw of a 2 or 3 miner chip is negligible and while not likely to get much would be fun.

no we all moved on to fdfx Voodoo cards.

But Intel and Nvida give me graphics better drivers for linux systems than the crap amd gives.

the propaganda is just how it was sold to the public, it does nothing to explain the motivation for it to be pushed in the first place

Yes and the drug war in China was because British East India Company pretty much wanted make the Chinese dependent drug slaves and the Chinese government didn't want that.
