    I don't like OSX but I still need to do iOS development. Now your site for me is the same as those who autoplay podcasts when you open article (I've even disabled autoplay, wtf they still working).

    iOS users are retarded, just leave a way for poor OSX users

    @Linux I think it's Netscape frames, but that worked only on Netscape (even though it got proposed on W3C).
    I remember some websites citing "Your browser must support frames". Oh, the nostalgia... 😕

    @Linux Fair enough, but then if I understand correctly the article, JavaScript isn't the issue but more closed-source JavaScript?

    @chilledfrogs
    Correct, hence my comment about "filthy .js"

    "I can't sympathize much with those app developers, since they are making proprietary software. They all deserve to fail." This isn't exactly true though is it? I can make an app FOSS and still have it be for iOS as far as I know.

    "A friend once asked me to watch a video with her that she was going to display on her computer using Netflix. I declined, saying that Netflix was such a threat to freedom that I felt uncomfortable with promoting its use in this way.

    Rejecting streaming DRM is an ethical imperative because this streaming technology is intended to divide people and make them antisocial."

    Not watching a movie with friend when invited is antisocial, and divides you from people.

    I have worked alot with startups and they have strange approach to everything. When they manage their Linux boxes they always fuck up.

    OSX is hell in enterprise. Most OSX users are IT-amputees that do not know the basics.

    Mac are good for one thing, and that is design. OSX has good options when it comes to thoose choices but as I said, OSX users is a pain to work with.

    And btw, calling people on stackoverflow is not very mature.

    @Linux Lol nicely done man, now, I think you overkilled it... Anyhow, that might remind @Sauruz we should watch the bullshit we say, especially when criticizing.

    @ezbie @Linux If you read carefully, @Sauruz didn't call anyone "stupid". Read well before you criticize...

    @Qaldim Oh, that's real, and fair on your part. My bad here, Also @Linux bad then.
