HalfBakedUnfinishedClusterFuck™

An argument directed towards the Android project, though it can be generalized to all of Linux, that forcing developers to create different versions of applications for different versions of an operating system to address the problem of incomparable hardware is a sign of organizational problems to say the least.

More than one developer has told us that this isn’t just a matter of debugging their existing application to ensure that it works on the various handsets. They say they’re going to have to build and maintain separate code for various Android devices. Some devices seem to have left out key libraries that are forcing significant recoding efforts, for example. With others, it’s more of a mystery.

This is pushing it as far as trademark things the Linux community uses to evangelize Linux, but I’ll let the votes decide.

Remember, this is here to point out contradictions and lies, not spread slander.

This doesn’t really work. No freetard would actually admit Android is a half-baked unfinished clusterfug, much like how no freetard will admit that Lunix or Ubunto is a half-baked unfinished clusterfug.

Clusterfug.
