The kernel is not structurally flawed.

It's just as sound as it was, the day Dave Cutler's team built an experimental port of VMS to CMU Mach. It's just as sound a kernel, as the day Microsoft ripped-off VMS from DEC.

It is the perversion of microkernel VMS by a flawed loadable driver model, and the .DLL nightmare that really sucks, and introduces "unpredictable" behaviors.

"Hey! PDP-11? Ask me how!"

I am talking about the Display Model introduced with Vista. Not Legacy GDI. That was part of Presentation Manager, stolen from IBM.

These are listed in chronological order. I am sorry if that is not apparent to children. This was all before your time.

No, no, of course not. What I mean is that the German supply lines were stretched, Zhukov countered and the siege was broken. And that's the story of Stalingrad.

The issue is, Having people dressing up like Vikings is probably a few hundred buck. You look at it and you see that well it can't cost that much. Sure it may have cost tax payers money. But so does having you coffee pot filled daily. Or the refrigerator to keep their lunches cool.

Now you have NASA design a replacement shuttle, give them near impossible specs, have them create a bunch of working prototypes then cancel the project because they decide space is no longer politically interesting, is much different.

Microsoft evolve? Wrong metaphor! Repent and rehabilitate... maybe. I shall not hold my breath.

The Microsoft business is largely built on the corpse of DEC, who they slew on its deathbed, before the will could be attested.

Microsoft "conned" QDOS and ripped-off the creator to deal as an unscrupulous OEM to IBM. (BASIC is as BASIC does. I wonder if the source of MS BASIC can be audited for its original derivation?)

Microsoft "stole" Windows from Presentation Manager. (How many .DLLs had Microsoft written before OS/2)

Microsoft "stole" NT from VMS. (Dave Cutler, you didn't even change addresses or debug message locations!)

Microsoft "stole" AD from Banyan Vines (Hey! Why'd Banyan go out-of-business, instead of sue? Boardroom shenanigans?)

Microsoft completely ripped-off the display and windowing stack of NeXT/OSX, with their weird XML in place of PostScript/PDF.

Those are just egregious highlights. There is nothing MS ever invented and brought to market.

Muscle memory is still in your brain. However the real issue is you know Kung Fu. But your mussels haven't gotten their proper exercise. So you will probably end up hurting yourself.

More like, with the right training, we can help them become much better....criminals.

The point of the USB was to make the Bus Universal (and Serial). It isn't like some of the older technology that reused incompatible ports that fit into each other. The USB was designed to be if it fits it should work.

While I see this as a joke.

The problem with Politicians and Empathy is that often they deal with issues that are more complex then the average Political internet ranter can rant about.

For example: Tax the rich 90%. That sounds good to me, it should solve a lot of problems... However... if these people are taxed too much they will move to more tax friendly areas, move jobs out of the area, and in general make things worse in the long run. Trickle down doesn't work when you give the rich more money. But it does work if you take it away from them. Then you have issues of what should and shouldn't be tax exempt. If you say nothing is Tax exempt, then you go well what about donations to charity...

Now the good Politician will actually try to find the right balance. But that takes smart people to work that out. Politicians are People-People, they are actually not so good about thinking but dealing with people. So chances are they will stick with the party lines, where the party may support the science that only backs up their main line.

I can change one word of your sentence, altering its meaning without changing its truthfulness:
"I think an observation of history shows that business gravitates toward the corrupt."

We can repeat the experiment with "finance" or "the church", or what have you. There will be plenty of supporting anecdote, and quite a bit of usable data that could support such statements.

So? There is likely a deeper, foundational feature - or flaw - which invites organisations of people to corruption of intent and personal reward, over commitment to mission.

Yet we need to organise toward common and mutual purpose. The establishment of an American Government prior to 1789 was intended to focus on the beneficial aspects of that mutual purpose, and hold in abeyance the opportunities for exploitation.

It worked, more or less, for a little while.

If the Counterfeit charger was the cause, it was made to look like an Apple charger. So the crook who made the dangerous product, probably stepped on a slew of other copyright and trademark infringement issues as well. Saying you should use Apple chargers isn't going to help much.

You need a USB certified charger, purchased threw a reputable source. Not something that takes the AC from the wall and gets it to fit into a usb port. It should meet standard USB power output and type.

Unless apple is making a USB charger that doesn't follow USB Specs. Than Apple really should get their butts sued because they are making a misleading product. If I can fit a USB plug in it. It should give me the same power as with any other usb plug.

I think they DO have names!

Thurston Howell III and "Lovey" Howell are two, that come to mind.
