If there wasn't a legal constraint, then hardware manufacturers and the community would make those drivers.

Supposed to because Apple makes it hard, not because of any technical requirements.

This isn't about UEFI, I've had no issues with it. Primarily because I don't use Windows on it. Microsoft is up to it's old tricks here. Then again, try to run OSX on a Dell. I jus…

Heh, they both look fine to me. I really couldn't see the difference... I'm a sucker for good design, but it seems my font style is in the incompetent zone.

Well, anywhere from unwarranted sexual touching (ass slaps), to coming up from behind and cozying up to a woman at her cubicle. These were all after the women had made it clear tha…

You realize this is a dictionary definition of an ad hominem logical fallacy?

I've worked in healthy and unhealthy work environments, the healthy ones have ample diversity, and the unhealthy ones were heavily male dominant. When I worked for Dell, it was so …

Zero percent of this conversation should be about the article, and should entirely be on the validity of the claim against the unhealthy work environment.

I certainly don't want unchecked liberty for others, or myself. I want intelligent, compassionate, and humane liberty, meaning that you can do whatever you want as long as you're n…

Now you want to limit what I can do for business because you want to be ignorant online. That is beyond arrogant.

Well, there is the MPAA, which seems to do what you're talking about, except rather than coming up with an all encompassing solution, they sue you. Because nothing says customer se…

But that's kinda my point, we don't know that, anymore than we know an all meat diet is okay for us. Most of the "science" around nutrition would only be acceptable in theoretical …

Drinking alcohol has many health benefits. Even a beer a day, something that 'common sense' would lead you to think was unhealthy, demonstrates to be good for your overall health. …

The beauty of the example I provided is it would be almost almost impossible to prove. Shooting a guy in the head, as opposed to arresting him raises more questions, and investigat…

I find it unfortunate that it doesn't contain more animal products. I do love me some tasty animals.

Here is how it can go down, the cops are chasing Bill, because Bill is able to demonstrate that fracking is causing cancer, and all the politicians knew about it and were bribed. P…

Not quite, forks are ill suited to the job of consuming many soups. This is more akin to how the Samsung watch is ill suited to host a Super Bowl party. All devices cannot be all t…

This is the dumbest thing I've read in a long time. He's defending MVP, but prefers the word testable to viable. Even though, viability is a primary criteria prior to testing. If y…
