RUNNING FROM THE ANDROID

You know I have wanted to say it for a long time now but suddenly I come across a webpage that has lead me to say it early.

Software companies really need to pull their thumbs out of their arses and produce a well rounded and efficient operating system and stop with the update crap.

In fact this update crap everyone needs to stop with and stop now, it's annoying, off putting except for bloody planks that know feck all about their toys and seen by most for what they are, an excuse to drive people so mad they spend money on a newer model!

Ahem. Now I have stated previously that Google have been losing the plot for a long time. I stated that they have managed to run Android without any of the tech journalists noticing this, or mite accurately not mentioning add they do not want the free toys and fringe benefits to stop. It has now been going backwards for awhile now.

Now I spotted a webpage that had some surprising news, well the why is not surprising only the who is.

I expected phone manufacturers to migrate towards other operating systems and in all honesty I thought it would be a Linux based one. I had thought that Canonical having learned lessons from various crap Ubuntus might actually pull this off?

Before a certain idiot decides to come back and blab about things he does not fully understand you should make all the criteria absolutely clear and becoming a major player in OS's you do not misinform people, mess around and talk things up like they are something they are not when the closet Greeks think it's ready to become mainstream when they clearly have no understanding about GUI's and usability and obviously no training in this area at all. All based on the fact they 'they like it'.

Oddly enough another company is showing the way, or hopefully so, in Valve Software. They have also proved me correct in this regard because one of the issues with Linux was that it was not taken seriously by the companies that matter as regards to drivers, namely nVidia and more precisely AMD. Unfortunately wallies do not understand these simple rules and like to harp on all the same.

Now fast forward to Valve announcing their own Linux based OS called Stream OS and suddenly lots of things start to happen in a short space of time. Especially with drivers and suddenly out if nowhere not only does a company emerge like the proverbial Phoenix but it starts to look as if those drivers for Ubuntu never arrived because they were instead working with Valve. Or perhaps only saw Valve as being able to seriously cut into the percentages of the other major OS's Apple, Microsoft and Google.

Quite bizarrely it is Microsoft and Google who have dropped their balls mostly, sorry no pun intended, lol! As much as I hate to admit it Apple are only guilty of not moving their phone OS forward at all, especially in its design as well as it's iTunes. Oddly there was someone who never stopped harping on about Apple and iTunes and unfortunately I am not around anymore to point out why Apple have bought Beats Audio. For their download service of course.

All to often companies, or likely more accurately greedy and lazy board members once the shares have been bought up, think they can produce just one innovative thing that gets swathes of pause at the time and then continue milking it for the rest of their days running big companies while strutting about like the big I am!

Someone I think all the idiots with money need to be forced onto a course to be made to understand not only how innovation works but that you have to stay ahead of it or you will die, be it slowly or quickly. Then once the writing is on the wall all the trickery and mishearing of its customer base comes about via up on high and this only makes it worse. Because people are not fools even if some appear to be to begin with in time they come around and get it.

However for some reason these lessons have not only never been learned they ate doggedly refusing to learn them during the worst financial situation the world had ever seen. This is not the 1920's and there are far more people, to many in fact some have started to say but try telling that to the crazy religious types who do not believe in contraception and breeding like proverbial flies.

Operating Systems need to just work, it is as simple add that. They can be messed about with and tinkered with but are not created fur this as a primary reason because if they do bit work then they cannot be truly referred to add Operating Systems. The clue is in the title after all!

When these stupid updates are preformed incompetently enough that they start to make the things that you attempt to do harder and intensely frustrating then something is very wrong.

When your a very regular user of these things to the point it is like that is a full time job or intending for it to become a fill time job then it leaves the orbit of intensely frustrating and starts to become beyond ridiculous and possibly expensive to boot!

What makes it even more infuriating is that these morons then decide that certain aspects of computing will not apply to them because they want to remain aloof? Any chance of contacting them via the Internet is nowhere to be found and attempting to open a live if communication by post is not a possibility.

Oh great ones, we are truly not worthy to be in the presence of such divine and God like beings such as yourselves and even that of your minions?!

Haha, could not resist that one! But then they do kind if ask for it and I will continue on asking each of my avenues until common sense prevails. Actually that's not strictly true, lol, there is more to it than that of course as many on my corruption blog are all too aware, lol.

Any hoooo, below is a link of someone starting to gravitate away from Android and extremely suspiciously along with shockingly, for me, it is the last company I expected to do this due to a teen years agreement it had just signed with none other than Google!

So this tells me there is more to things going on that meets the eye and either the company pulling away has realised that the obe they have now signed a deal with have either been cheating, well no surprise there, or are going down the pan as I expected fur some time they would. Now though I state this it is not an overnight thing because of both their size and the number of companies they own. Yet the exact same company produced its own figures a few months apart that contradicted each other and only proved what I have been stating about them for around 18 months. Well on one particular subject that is!

So you may have worked out that I am on about the Operating System of Android but the surprise is for those unfamiliar with the signed agreement the shocking company now reported to be pulling away is the one that has suffered in the law courts at the hands of none other than Apple, Samsung!

On the link below you will see a new phone announced by them called the Samsung Z and it uses the Tizen Operating System?! Thought this was Samsung's own system but now discovered that this is a Linux OS and had now garnered my attention. Waterproof too and I might see this add the phone to go for down the line somewhere?

I dare say that a lot more in the way of details with all this will come out throughout the rest of 2014. Something tells me that the Big G will have turned out to have been very naughty and taken many liberties to which companies would rather take users of their systems to city over very stupid reasons than they would Google?!

Also Apple and Google are both American while Samsung is not and I find this fact along with the fat that Samsung paid dearly write disturbing. This especially in light if the corporate espionage that the NSA have been performing while using the American public's taxes to do it. Giving the American public a bad name while using their own money to do so?!

This is another unfortunate thing that occurs in the world as because if some evil company being caught red handed the public to the said country takes the blame in its entirety. This to me dies that this that would take your money and behave like this not only believe it is their right to do so but also do not give a flying feck about the safety of their own people while abroad.

I hope I live long enough to are these morons get it and finally it sinks in that you simply cannot do this? Better still I would like to see them overrun by do-gooders ego would tie them to crucifixes fur awhile to have then live in fear of what will come next before letting them go?! Lmao!

Well the trouble with stubbornness at the tops of these hierarchies is that they ignore and ignore the slaps in the face until the lengths taken to reach any humanity they may possess takes some very drastic measures? Like being tied to stakes Boudicca style as public suffering on a wide scale for long enough will see them regress into the animals we all once were in times long since passed by.

APPLE OPERATING SYSTEM FLAW

I think not!

Despite the fact I did not get on with an iPhone 4S I had a recent conversation with my daughter who had for herself a shiny new iPhone 5S and during the same conversation she declared "it's rubbish!" brute I reminded her that I warned her they were way over hyped!

She even tried to return it for something else and they did not want to know and took it to one of those CEX stores, which I told her were just a con to young people and their website encourages theft, and that I2 banned from my local store! She laughed and said "Dad, they offered my £140 for it!" before I called them thieving twats as they normally charge £800 fit the to of the line and late iPhone!

I asked her about the finger print reader and she said it rarely worked and said it was useless and frustrating to which I laughed and told her about my £100 Moto G phone!

I hear many people turn around and say that Apple phones just work! Well I have some news for you because Android is built upon the same system. But manufacturers feck about with things they don't understand and screw it up, possibly why Samsung Galaxy S4s are having issues but difficult to prove! Looks like Google but I am sure an approach to each week result in them blaming the other, now that they have your cash of course! Though threatening to cancel the monthly payments for a breach of the contact I am sure will lead to someone telling you who is at fault! Does not hero either that you have three companies turning parts of your over priced equipment on and of add they see fit, or unless they get extra cash of course!

I am amazed there is not a tech body, oh no I hear you say another expensive to run Ombudsman that never do anything, to stop all this fecking about?!

But back on topic any operating system can have it's own issues and flaws. Odd that this link stared that it concerns Apple as the OS, on phones at least, has looked the same for years now?! Ancient!

Which remind me that was the other thing my daughter pointed out about her iPhone 5S in that it was just an "app menu!" Lol! I said I told you that ages ago. The only thing it had going for it is it's looks and build to which she agreed.

Oh and she stated the battery was crap!

Although I have to admit that though I warned her about I phones I did state that they were mainly for idiots, brainless fashion gurus and are loved by women I did think that she would end up liking them, I guess she is even smarter than I thought! Lol.

If your reading this kiddo 9 times out of 10 I see your phone it's always a woman that has it, which is surprising I must say. Unless guys are just scared to get it out our don't talk on phones as much as women?! Just a thought! Lol!

The trouble is, is that it is becoming increasingly difficult to find the perfect phone and harder and harder to accept the extremely premium prices they charge along with the increasingly crap reception you get in the UK!

Being within the M25 so technically London and with no less than two transceivers one I can see from my downstairs window on the far side of a river and one immediately behind my house there simply is no excuse for the crap reception. Yet it had remained in its God awful state since I moved here 7 years ago!

Piss-Ants!!

THE DUMB OPERATING SYSTEMS

I think I am going to walk away from Google's Android Operating System. It just seems to be slowly becoming a horrible place to be!

As some of you know I bought three Advent Tegra Note 7 Tablet PC Computers. One for me and two on behalf of friends as presents for their two girls. Well I already had to replace one of the two given for a new one which were given out as Christmas presents and now I have the second one in my home and I will be exchanging it when I return it tomorrow?!

Starting to wonder now when my one will give up the ghost?!

But regardless of this nor peering on my mind I am having other issues!

Google Play has gone from being interesting and exciting to browse to a pain in the arse I really am getting more and more feed up with using!!!

First of all there are an absolute myriad of shit on their and I do mean shit! I have list count of the number of things I have downloaded that do not work, nothing like their description and died not do what it says on the tin!! Then there are the fecking games that are just plain greedy and preying on that gaming urge that is a primary instinct in us all! In app purchases is what I am getting at!

That is of course after all the utter shite you click on because the picture looks cool, mainly suggesting a first person shooter with console class graphics, only to see the screenshots and think ' what the FECK is this shit, it looks like the old days of 8 BIT gaming?!'

Of course yeah that is why I searched for something with an nVidia Tegra 4 processor so that I can play 1980s games and gear up the planet with all the wasted extra power?! Lol!.

I also got a an App Shifter and that is what it is actually called, unless your looking at it on Google Play then it's called something fecking else entirely. I moved a few dozen apps including some big games. Only lately I have been clicking in things and being told it is not installed?!

This happened with an app I bought, OfficeSuite Pro, because Quick Office is now crap because Google got ahold of it and I paid a tenner fit that too!! Only I have just realised that my documents in this app are NOT BEING SAVED TO GOOGLE DRIVE?!

For the love of a fecking GOD!!

Then tonight I realised that my new game I was playing of GT RACING 2 (real racing it states) had also give missing?! I then opened App Shifter only to click on SD Card apps to see just TWO!! TWENTY TWO would be closer!!

Then there is the game itself, ever since I bought something IN-APP things went downhill... FAST!!

I ended up with a Toyota GT85 II. Only straight away I was having difficulties and found that I had to drift to stand any chance of going around a bend and stating competitive with race leaders!! I thought that maybe some upgrades would since this. This was also because other cars were rounding bends perfectly level and without drifting! I ended up maxing the upgrades to the car without realising and things remained the same. Also despite being maxed out I was being offered upgrades before each race?!

Also I was seemingly spinning out each time someone touched me which was not happening to them and added to this they were never spinning out. Then there is the old positions remain the same syndrome within the race energy your the only one ever doing any overtaking or even being overtaken?!

Another common thing is never getting higher than 8th after several attempts on one track and then getting first in the next race at the first go?!

Some tracks feels as if my tyres are manufactured using ice while others not quite so bad. Maybe cardboard, lol.

The last updated, like the other two, have made absolutely no fecking difference to Android and added to this the swipe keyboard is still substituting words whereby you got it spot on but it offers you not only the WRONG WORD but often not even one that starts with the same letter?! You know the...letter...that... you... touched... on... first... which... you... would... not... make... a... mistake with!!!

If your going to scree up the coding at least get the wetting word that starts with the correct letter for Christ sakes?!

If I was Eric Schmidt and I had some Android OS as a business solution I would be crapping my pants right about now!!

So I am getting extremely feed up with Google and Android.

Only the alternatives are crap!

Sorry Apple I know you would like many to think that your system is great but that it's not doing well because the rest of the world is voting and infringing, but no!

I simply never realised just how bland the iOS was until I had a few weeks to mess around with one. Also I hate iTunes as it is also bland and on Windows it is good awful slow! Mac OS is much better as an OS to look at and use!

Maybe Jason Bradbury was not plugging Microsoft's Surface 2 dye to sponsorship?

But then where Google and Android have a problem with being far too laid back and open Microsoft are the polar opposite and doggedly sticking to their closed system which would not be that bad if not for preventing a number of other people coding browsers for their system!

My mate had the options of IE and UC?! No Safari, Dolphin, Chrome, Firefox or any others either.

So one choice is far too bland and boring added to way over expensive in Apple.

Another is far too awkward, butt ugly and closed system with not many apps or choices with Microsoft.

Lastly you have far too many choices, too unstable, far too many so issues and lazy or incompetent coding with Google.

Now what annoys me is that any one of these could read this and realise that they could alter their system to stand head and shoulders above the other two?!

However I will wager that they won't!

Or maybe one of the many others I have been hearing about will rise like a Phoenix from the flames and keep above the other two?!

If it is the latter paragraph I got they then do not just become the fourth arsewipe in a long list of arsewipes?! If it is greedy shareholders that come along then suddenly decide that they know better than the inventors... well get them to read this oust and I will tell them to shut the feck up and go back and crawl under the rich from whence they came!

In the meantime I can only hope that things improve and I suspect now that it just might be the big 'M' as they are already working to replace the travesty that was Windows 8, with Windows 9 of whatever it ends up being called?

APPLE RELEASES BANANA

Well this is a very odd find!

Even stranger than an iPhone bent like a Banana is the fact that this reporting of the iPhone 5S having this issue, straight out the box do you mind, but was also reported on it's predecessor?!

That is weird!

It is also hilarious in a way as several companies have been beavering away to create a curved screen phone! Lol. Maybe Apple did this deliberately to show that they could?! Though I don't relish that guys job! You know the one with a pile of iPhone 5s and a hair-dryer?!

Lmao!

Apple Shares Down

Was bound to happen and been expecting this for done time now.

A prime example of a combination or getting TOOK BIG, testing on your laurels and worst of all thinking that you were do brilliant that customers would but your products even when several others are way better?!

Now you have the Samsung SIII, SIII Mini, HTC ONE, and best of all the Sony Xperia Z.

I am sure over the next few months you could add several more to that list too?!

Then they will release something a little better than the others I mentioned with the iPhone 6 just as the others are all about to improve their products again?!

Seems they have never manged to get it right ever since their rubber bands iPhone. You know the one that needs a river band to work?! The iPhone 4, it 4S I cannot remember.

Do not like the iPhone 5 either and whoever it was who also ridiculed Apple for not altering their User Interface on the UPS, well I could not agree more!

LMAO.

I did actually like that phone until that fiasco occurred.
