9fb29947 | 10 years ago | on: iOS9 already driving IPv6 uptake
It's an increase.

Cool. I doubt those intrusive marketing emails will ever include that header though.

Why does OEM versions of Windows even exist in the first place? How is a bloated, crapwared system ever going to be a better user experience than a clean install?

They should join forces with Khan Academy.

> Division [in the UNIX community] leads to wasted effort and political infighting, limiting the success.

This is also just another speculation. We can't know because it's closed source.

> Also, I thought the consensus was that Apple was 'backdooring' iMessage by giving LE access to iCloud backups which include iMessage, not compromising iMessage directly?
Can you please expand on this? How would access to iCloud backup not compromise iMessage?

Can we please stop making Linux as a thing about choice[1] and stop fragmenting the community in the name of following a UNIX philosophy, the rule of KISS or some other nonsense? Are we really going to spend lots of energy the next n years discussing the best init system? Isn't this a pretty simple and solved problem by now?

Why isn't Apple in this alliance?
