Yes, because its so much easier to program apps for iOS? You do realize that if you wish to do anything worthwhile on a phone, its necessary to be able to fully root it? You do know the difference between a jailbroken iPhone and a rooted device is significant, I hope…
^Smartphone programming has been something I’ve dabbled in since high school and I’m a beta tester for BasicIP. Jailbreaking and rooting are the same thing. They both deal with giving the user access to administrative purposes on the phone. The article from Chronicle below gives you a basic rundown of privileges it gives you. So I still fail to see your point where you tout the Android, unless its because it is cheaper, in which case, I’d have to agree.
Yes, in essence they are the same thing, but there are still way more limitations on the iOS. You want to install an .swf player function to run on your iPhone? Impossible, jailbroken or not. You want to use java, c++, and python interchangeably? Good luck. If you dabble in smartphone programming, than you are an idiot if you honestly think the iPhone does not limit what you can do, because your logical thought should tell you the great thing about access to the entire source code for OS is that you can change the actual OS to do what you want. Reworking Android is the same thing as reworking Ubuntu…its just an easy, linux-based OS with readily available code.
you twinks shut the fuck up. piker has you by the balls and is right. im sure both of you have played the silly ass game. the sounds those damn birds make crack me. and in honor of everyone on here. im gonna play a round of crazy birds now. oh and stop being so serious about shit you guys are in college your gonna die of a coronary.
Piker, this is my last response. Initially, I thought your argument was based on semantics but now I realized you are truly ignorant, although not to the extent of booze haze slam. You first claim is that “The difference between a jailbroken iPhone and a rooted device is signficiant.” after my retort, you proceed to admit that they “are in essence the same thing” (don’t make it too easy now), and here is where I can tell your knowledge gap shows.
You say something along the lines of Android having the advantages of a .swf player which enables flash media and you can use several different programming languages interchangeably. Newsflash, try a jailbroken iphone before you read some online blog written by a droid fan. Iphone can run “frash” which enables flash media. This has been around since at least summer of 2010 and who the hell uses multiple languages interchangeably. Most users are comfortable using just one for all of their programming needs, especially for minor mods.
“In essence” and being the same thing are completely different. 10 dollar vodka and an expensive champagne are, in essence, the same thing: something that you can get wasted on if you drink enough, but there is a significant difference. Secondly, its nice if you want to use one programming language on a computer, and a simpler one in a text editor on your phone or tablet, due to the smaller screen and lesser functionality of the keyboard. iPhone flash is still a fucking myth. Literally, its only function is to play online videos and games. You still can’t program flash from the ground up with an iOS. If you are a programmer, and make apps for an OS with a GUI intended for mentally retarded Californians and old people who can’t figure out technology, you are just an idiot. Go kill yourself.
Semantics Piker. You pussy footing around redefining what you say doesn’t make you anymore right. I’m not a programmer big guy, I did a little programming in hs and beta test for a company on the side for a little spending cash, I’m a senior econ major who enjoyed calling out your post. However, Piker, you sir, are a glorified troll with the world web site substituting in for whatever pseudo-intellectual persona you have on this site. While not intelligent, you are somewhat resourceful. Enjoy basking in middle class mediocrity.
cool story why are you trolling around and saying shit everywhere i go? yourrrr supposse to be my homeboy by now man. So bc his name is piker im suppose to ignore the fact that hes telling the truth?
I like to think that The Piker brings out the best in all of us. I can’t say I’m not inspired by his dedication. And reading his trolling during the summer was a great way to pass the time at the internship. Booze haze slam is always good for a funny comment, too. Seriously, I don’t think anyone has ever called a group of people “pussies” on the internet as many times as this guy.
relax with the phone debate, it just needs to be functional. judging somebody by his phone is what happens in middle school, its not a fashion accessory.
I’m not sure if you keep up with RIMM, but they haven’t been doing so hot over the past few years and their CEO is useless. Blackberries will be a thing of the past within 5 years so you’ll eventually have to learn another phone anyway.
Nothing about the blackberry is FAF. It runs on outdated firmware, is extremely limited in function, and their server in recent months has proven to be unreliable.
My fault, the term ‘bird’ is used colloquially to mean ‘young woman’, but it turns out is predominantly a British slang usage. Regardless, the statement uses ‘play’ to mean ‘to practice deception’. The statement then reads, ‘the only time I deceive angry young women is when I convince disgraced (hence their anger, presumably directed at me) ex-slams (implying that they cut ties due to said disgrace or were disgraced as a result) to have sex via insincere apology (implying the deception was successful in that I was able to manipulate her into continuing her relations with me, despite prior anger and disassociation)’.
Way to show your ignorance. Trading stocks, futures and commodities can all be relatively risk free if you know how to hedge. Managing risk is what separates traders from speculators. You probably just finished your required 6 hours of economics classes.
Trading futures options instead of futures so in the end you have to subtract the premium from your profit, otherwise reducing your rate of return. TFTC.
I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one who hates that game
13 years ago at 11:51 pmI’m yet to understand what could possibly be so infatuating about that game
13 years ago at 3:14 amYa’ll need to get laid, f…a..ggo..ts.
13 years ago at 8:10 amIts a damn shame you were too stupid to figure out the Android OS. You could be doing so much more.
13 years ago at 12:11 am^that takes zero intelligence. Plus, jailbreaking is legal now so your open platform for apps is kind of a moot point
13 years ago at 12:44 amYes, because its so much easier to program apps for iOS? You do realize that if you wish to do anything worthwhile on a phone, its necessary to be able to fully root it? You do know the difference between a jailbroken iPhone and a rooted device is significant, I hope…

13 years ago at 10:15 amIt’s nice to see Piker back. He’s useful to see who’s new to the site.
13 years ago at 12:10 pmyall’re just annoying as fuck
13 years ago at 12:35 pmY’all’er? What language is that
13 years ago at 1:04 pmonly booze haze slam would actually defend the piker
13 years ago at 12:54 pmMaybe if y’all would spend less time trying to figure out how to program your phone you might get laid once in awhile.

Carry on, gentlemen.
13 years ago at 2:10 pmiPhones and Droids are for people who spend money. Blackberries are for people who make money.
13 years ago at 12:31 amrelax with the phone debate, it just needs to be functional. judging somebody by his phone is what happens in middle school, its not a fashion accessory.

13 years ago at 12:59 amI just switched from my Curve 8330. It was a wonderful phone, but it’s old, and RIM has been going downhill.
Staying with the Blackberry would be like still using a Gateway or something. It’s old, inferior technology.
13 years ago at 7:46 amRIM is definitely becoming obsolete, it’s sad but true. They had such a good thing going.
13 years ago at 8:14 amIt’s called a Fratberry.
13 years ago at 9:47 amHope your shit doesn’t crash…
13 years ago at 10:03 amblackberries fucking suck
13 years ago at 1:49 pmSorry we have money to spend.
13 years ago at 12:40 am^This
13 years ago at 12:48 amI’ll keep my Bold and continue investing versus spending.

13 years ago at 1:16 pmThe only time I play Angry Birds is when I convince disgraced ex-slams to have sex via insincere apology. TFM.

13 years ago at 1:33 pmwould have worked if you said you play it to convince slams you’re done with them.

13 years ago at 1:51 am^futures options are often still stocks, your post shows you don’t know what you’re talking about
13 years ago at 3:32 amIts all fun and games till you get that margin call…

13 years ago at 5:40 pmOf fucking course you have to pay for a premium on futures options. If you didn’t, it would be free money.
That’s like saying, buying stocks reduces your profit from selling them.
