schestowitzNothing to be worried of, android fart apps remain fart apps even on a PC.Jan 23 17:51
schestowitzBut smashing opponents playing online games on my rooted RemixOS running off an hd partition is a lot of fun :-)Jan 23 17:51
schestowitzEarly versions only used the open source parts of android but everybody complained and now i come with gapps (google spyware) preinstalled.Jan 23 17:51

schestowitz"it’s all bullshit . just some java on top of linux kernel. and google’s money fueling that whole mess . besides , the free world should be rallying to move personal computing to arm , not to move arm-based OS to x86 . x86 is becoming microsoft-regulated architecture . you will not be able to boot anything on x86 without microsoft certificate pretty soon ."Jan 23 17:51

schestowitz"It’s sickeningly self serving and cyclical. NSA and Microsoft make crappy, back doored software and bad things happen. Microsoft and the NSA use those bad things to scare people and gain even more power over users by presenting themselves as the solution. This leads to yet more bad things. If they keep it up, it might really be possible to shut down whole infrastructures at once, to run cars off the road, etc."Jan 23 17:51
