it cant be worse than the OS on my samsung smart tv.

or that thing's just bad because the processor in it is about as fast a pII as best I can tell

if it's anything like their previous attempt at an os (bada) it'll be loving terrible

if it somehow incorporates touchwiz into that then i might as well poke my eyes out and remove the skin from my fingers

the current samsung smart tvs run tizen.

so i guess you could say it is exactly as bad

normal people have problems with touchwizz they just don't specifically identify it as the problem or they assume it's their fault for not understanding technology or whatever

an embedded system shouldn't need anything remotely as fast as a PII to have a responsive UI. samsung just sucks and is brute forcing a poo poo OS.

same coworker again says nearly everyone working at samsung thinks touchwiz is far & away the worst of the major android ui things, including the people that actually write it, so sounds like you're just being contrarian. what a surprise.

some of samsung's internal software is epically awful

their internal webmail client (which they forced everyone to use by killing outlook/exchange support) started deleting everything after 30 days or when you hit 100MB in your inbox with no way to restore. it also had some strange social networking things integrated into it with personalized pages for each employee.

This is probably the sensible way to force people to use a DMS to track important issues. If both are terrible though :derp:

my favorite thing is that apparently the email system blocks any emails that contain the actual name of the son of the chairman of samsung or something

you are assuming a dms existed. a workflow system was integrated into the email thing but that's about it.

an engineer in quality control rolled his own dms to track critical issues and it was so effective it was used site wide. then hq found out about it, said they were going to implement it company wide, and proceeded to turn it over to the internal software folks who then stripped out all of the useful features and flexibility that made it so effective in the first place.

Oh and relocated the server to Korea so we couldn't touch it and had to be logged into a slow as balls vpn to use. which is a problem when the best way to document a problem is 130mb of raw photos or an hd video showing a robot exhibiting bad movement due to a failed bearing. and those photos and videos had to be embedded into a word doc because .tif and .mpeg weren't supported file types (remember I said they removed the flexibility?).

my installation of firefox sometimes freezes up for 5 seconds for no apparent reason and sometimes pegs a CPU core to 100% until it's killed when playing some html5 videos.

chrome does neither of these things but its also bad so welp
