| MinceR | (2013) | Mar 22 19:50 |
| MinceR | but i didn't dare upgrade it to kit kat | Mar 22 19:51 |
| schestowitz | are the upgrades mostly automatic when it comes to kitkat? | Mar 22 19:52 |
| schestowitz | Google does not even ask before performing upgrades | Mar 22 19:52 |
| schestowitz | I showed and explained this to RMS, he later mentioned this in his talks | Mar 22 19:52 |
| MinceR | all my devices just notified me that there's an upgrade, they did not proceed without my approval | Mar 22 19:58 |
| MinceR | applications are updated automatically by default by google play, iirc | Mar 22 19:59 |

| schestowitz__ | the below strike through annotations reflect that. We also want to thank the community for the timely feedback. | Mar 22 19:26 |

| schestowitz__ | In April 2014, Windows XP will become unsupported. Organisations urgently need to review their use of unsupported systems in operation.

| MinceR | but i didn't dare upgrade it to kit kat | Mar 22 19:51 |
| schestowitz | are the upgrades mostly automatic when it comes to kitkat? | Mar 22 19:52 |
| schestowitz | Google does not even ask before performing upgrades | Mar 22 19:53 |
| schestowitz | I showed and explained this to RMS, he later mentioned this in his talks | Mar 22 19:53 |
| MinceR | all my devices just notified me that there's an upgrade, they did not proceed without my approval | Mar 22 19:59 |
| MinceR | applications are updated automatically by default by google play, iirc | Mar 22 19:59 |
