Linked- Russian Roulette is Safer in Big Groups

Linked- Why Android Fragmentation is a Good Thing


Oh boy, this is fun.  I'm betting this is how the Macalope feels.

I get wanting to try and put good spin on this god-awful report, but this part just makes me literally "LOL."

/One of the problems with Apple's monoculture is that a security vulnerability in the latest operating system release has the potential to affect a greater percentage of the user base than it would on Android. Apple has all its eggs in one basket./

See?  Android fragmentation means the likely hood YOUR version of Android is susceptible to malware is smaller!! Kinda like how if you play Russian Roulette with 6 people instead of just 2, the odds are better.

Unless of course you're playing with 6 bullets.  Then everyone loses.  Kinda like when a bug affects 95% of your users.  Hell, even an iOS bug only gets to 85% of Apple's.  If you're into numbers.

I don't need to explain why this is so laughable.  But, boy howdy, they call us "mindless fanboys" and then go write this crap?  

Funny... whenever I hear "die-hard" Apple fans talk, it's always about things Apple does wrong.  But whenever I hear "Fandroids" get together it's always denial-level affirmations of why Android rules.

But yeah... we're the sheep...
