Not really. While it is up to their discretion when it comes to downloading apps from other sources, this is no different than any OS where this is possible. To put this in perspective, if you are looking for Anti-Virus software, you will go to a trusted source such as AVG - not one of those popups that say you have…

In addition to what the other two have said, just try winking and try blinking. When you blink, you use both eyes and it feels effortless, while with winking you actually have to use more muscles - hence, the sensor will detect this more drastic facial expression rather than detecting simple blinks.

Well, I personally use Classic Shell so I can get the old start menu back, which you otherwise cannot access. I like having my most used programs in a pinned list, the search bar, documents, all programs, shutdown/sleep controls, etc. all right there. On top of this, I literally use zero apps: only programs.

True, somewhat. If he had this so called 400k+ botnet, I am sure he is not just a script kiddie, unless there is a sophisticated hacking tool that can easily compromise 400k+ computers that I do not know of. Beyond the botnet he established, you are right - all he does is tell it what to do.

You missed the point. The best selling smartphone in the world is the SGSIII, which is by no means a cheap phone. If people only bought Android because it was cheaper (as the article suggests), then why is such a pricey high-end Android phone the most popular smartphone?

So people choose Windows over Linux because of the experience, not just the cost? That is exactly the point I was making haha. And Linux does the key things everyone wants as well: internet browsing and productivity.

Not quite sure how credible this article is but here:

Yep. As I said in these other two replies, I was just showing that price isn't the only deciding factor as the article suggested.

Never tried Debian, but I have found Ubuntu to be very user friendly, and I almost considered it over Windows 8. But anyway, I was simply trying to prove a point: there are many free Linux distros but people still use Windows or IOS in which neither are free (barring the fact that they typically are pre-loaded for the…

Ubuntu is very user friendly, and if you are unaware of this you should check it out.

Linux is free, but why isn't it popular? Point broken.

If it does not work without the battery, then there is a problem. No manufacturer would design it so all power must first go through the battery (would greatly reduce the lifespan of the battery). So think of it this way:

This is one of the issues that boils down to technical knowledge. If you have zero technical knowledge, a PC may not be for you since they do require at least a bit of know-how. I would even estimate that 95% of PC problems are simple issues that when given to any technically inclined individual can be solved in less…

Obviously this lead is false. No cars were hit in the process of parking, parked parallel within boundaries and not diagonally, and most importantly, they even MADE IT to the school. Therefore, there is no way in hell it was a 15 year old girl driving.

One thing is that when Google releases a new iteration of Android, that is when the process of getting it to a phone begins. This is why Apple seems to be on top of it all; since they handle the entire process of OS development to phone implementation, there is no middle-man.
