RIP Windows Phone: Microsoft officially pulls plug

[timb]

Sounds like the company using android phones was using them because they could buy cheap crap.

For a time (before they were given good quality tablets) I knew of many ticket collectors that prefered to use their own phones and tablets instead of the shit they were given to check people's tickets

This is very common, use the cheapest Android, change to Apple and compare quality. It's comparing $50+ device and $1000+ other...

Actually, one company was buying name brand mid-level Android devices, along with previous generation Apple devices (buying the 5S’ when the 6 was out, for example). So the devices were equal in cost. Nice try, through. (See, you forget that Apple provides software support for much, much longer than any Android device, so it’s feasible to purchase a slightly older model and still stay within the performance and compatibility curve. I have an iPhone 5S that’s 3 years old and still getting updates to the latest OS.)

s was a man named Carl Fiorina you would not have batted an eyelid. Political correctness gone mad . I don't drink cafe lattes, never had a cup of coffee in my life, prefer concrete to trees, still refuse to call programs "apps". How's that for being creepy .

But you *don't* feel the need to specify a man's gender when you're talking about a man, do you? only a woman. And when categorising words are used in that context it's normally a put-down or an attempt at "othering" a person...

Also, you use the word "man" for man, but you used the word "female" for woman, which again directs some kind of detachment of that person from personhood....

it's just disappointing to see it here rather than just on reddit/4chan and wherever else the sad men who hate women for their own failures in life hang out... but hey, maybe you really love women and have no problems with women at all, and I'm being bigoted/sexist towards you over a bad word choice. In which case, I apologise in advance.

At least you don't claim to put pineapple on pizza.
