    WebOS had so much potential. Unfortunately the performance was never there. There are still devices out there with WebOS powered interfaces, I believe LG borrowed bits and parts of…

    This is the first response I've read that has any legitimacy to it. They were way too early to market. Supposedly their compensation is or was structured to reward shipping new pro…

    They are almost all simple enough that you can use something like IDA to see quite plainly which APIs they are calling out to. If you really want to know, this is how you find out.…

    One of the best ways to make me cringe is to use "fake news" as a joke in the completely wrong context. It physically hurts me to realize this every time it happens (which is unfor…
