I've seen lots of reviews of the One X and One V, and while many have praised the cameras, the photos they've shown off have all had serious issues with over-saturated colours. Granted, over-saturated colours is what the iPhone 4 got all its praise for: it's eye-catching, even though distorted. My colleague bought a One X for the camera, and is very unhappy with it. Samsung's cameras are far superior.

We don't need apps. We need functionality, which WP still lacks.

On Slashdot, they point to it because they have seen others doing it being rewarded with a +5, insightful. It's nothing but trite meme regurgitation, highly correlated with not having read or understood TFS. Hell, it's almost as if the hurry to be the first one to post it caused them to miss the story. But meh, what do I know. A 1:1 correlation of ignorance and early posting of 'correlation is not causation' does not imply causation. It does, however, imply stupidity.

That would depend on who wrote it, obviously. How much effort did you put into that idiotic question?

Shakespeare didn't publish Romeo and Juliet. Apart from poor bootleg versions, it was only published after his death. Shakespeare wrote for the stage, not for publication.

Global warming and the decline of pirates was mostly about the correlation between the will to ignore one set of facts with the enthusiasm for ignoring another set of facts.

Like for instance when the UK, the US and the USSR went to war against Hitler's Germany, amirite? I mean, from a different perspective, it's all about denying Apple its rightful Lebensraum.

Your tl;dr comment about how (not why) great literature fails to impress you is oh so interesting.

So, after filtering through your "critical thinking", 10% becomes 20%, "when it comes down to it" becomes "shows up to church", and "most programmers" you have met are "generalizations of well-publicized [unsourced] scientific results". Not only anecdotal evidence and made-up stats then, but also irrelevant stats that doesn't quite fit to back up the ones you made up.

I'm not saying there's no negative correlation between education (or critical thinking) and religiosity, just that your comments display poor reasoning, which is ironic.

Right: since you're neither particularly well endowed (black) nor extremely flexible (Asian), you're probably unable to suck yourself off, and want a set of tits so that you can tittie-fuck yourself. Am I right?

So, does the use of anecdotal data and made-up stats fit well with the requirements of critical thinking, or are they all just another load of the self-aggrandising bullshit that programmers like to surround themselves with (as evidenced by the rest of this ./ discussion)?

... which is no more competitive with Windows 7's graphics performance than Linux is. In fact less so with nvidia.

Meh. It's a proprietary extension to a free protocol, with lock-in included. Fuck them.

Well, they certainly had resources enough to game me.

Wow, +5 for a shill account with one paranoid delusional comment.

1) It's not obvious that Google is behind this. Roy Fielding, the man responsible for it, works for Adobe.

2) If Roy Fielding were a sock puppet for Google, and Google would prefer DNT not to exist at all, then he probably wouldn't have made DNT in the first place.
