I've got the HTC M8 One running Windows, and quite honestly, I don't think I've ever rebooted it

I'm not sure they'll ever make money in computers again if the Windows/Office gravy train ever comes to a halt.

You really think that's where they make most of their money? You've never read an 8-K, have you?

It's easy to run a business if the owners don't care about profit. Microsoft actually makes money. Huge difference. You go ahead and buy that Amazon stock. I'll keep my Microsoft stock, thanks.

That's funny. I trust them with my business, and it's worked out pretty well for me.

Oh, my lord! The shenanigans! They provided their web browser as a default with their OS! Lord, I feel like I'm getting the vapors!

Drama queen.

Competing with other companies is not what I, or most people would describe as "Evil", so quit with the hyperbole.

"Evil"? "Sin"? Please. Trying to kill the competition is what *every* business does. You're kidding yourself if you think otherwise. And Microsoft wasn't trying to kill the competition by doing anything other than competing with them. This whole "Microsoft is evil and Google isn't" is really pretty childish.

Who walks around without $2 in their pocket? What a tragic waste of time and effort.

Personally I think this issue and other other pressures on ocean life from man such as pollution and plastic debris is far more pressing in the snort term than global warming but hardly anyone - even the enviromentalists - makes a big deal about it.

There are quite a few large studies about the plastic content in the oceans, and quite a few oceanographers have raised concerns. You should Google it!

The more people you hire, the more you pay in taxes, not less.

Business 101:

Income - Expenses (including wages) = Profit * Tax Rate

When income taxes are HIGHER, it makes more sense to hire more people. Increase expenses and lower taxes.

If you benefit from having employers able to hire you and pay your salary, it's a race to make your country competitive environment for employers to hire.

Uh, no. Hiring isn't really connected to taxes. That's a lie that the Big Businesses and Fox and Friends have been telling for a long time. In fact, if taxes are going to be high, I might hire *more* pay *less* in tax.

That's not at all true. SQL is SQL. Every product has add-ons, but SQL, which is supported by all major DB vendors, is very powerful in and of itself.

I'm always skeptical when somebody says they "know SQL". 90% of the people I've met who "knew SQL" thought that SELECT * FROM TABLENAME was the extent of SQL.

No, Office 365 is a perfect example. That's cheap and easy.

Chrome OS is still a complete unknown. Windows 7 isn't rocket science, can do anything you need it to do, and is solid. Windows isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

First they're upset that women are getting into gaming, and now they're upset that women and minorities are getting into sci-fi. Welcome to the 21st century, boys! You're gonna have to move your wank party back into your parents' basement!
