What fhe fuck AMD is doiing with this shit? Why AMD put in the changelog that feature X has been fixed if it has not been fixed?

For God's sake! That's why AMD has earned the fame of owning shit drivers!

Canonical finally exits the phone market
I have to give Canonical credit — they tried. Hard. Unfortunately, the Ubuntu Phone missed the mark on nearly every possible level. The idea for the interface was doomed from the beginning and they couldn't couldn't gain any traction in an already saturated market. However, I do believe their dream of convergence can be fixed., and it begins with Android. Instead of focusing so much effort on getting Ubuntu Phone in a position where it can make the convergence between desktop and mobile, Canonical might well set their sights on integrating this functionality into Android. That would make so much more sense. It would require the creation of an app that would easily communicate between mobile and desktop and make them work seamlessly together.


Where did it go so wrong?

I'm an ancient developer, and since shortly
before the dawn of time, I've been writing
if/for/while statements with no space after the
control flow keyword. However, in recent
millennia, it seems to have come into fashion
to put a space after the keyword and no space
inside the condition parenthesis.

I see good reason for the time-honored style
since we can't actually omit the parenthesis in
most C-like syntaxes -- So can somebody give
me the really good reason that I'm missing?

// Tradition!
if( test ) 
    doSomething;

Versus:

// Damn kids!
if (test) 
    doSomething;

For some reason I can't install Ubuntu or any other derivative. (I have already tried Ubuntu and Xubuntu)

Goes through a few screens and in the end just gives me a black screen. (Exact same thing happens for both)

I don't understand what the issue is because I have installed Ubuntu before on my PC with no problems at all.

Posting the screens that I get, and in order.
