I use Snow Leopard (10.6.8) because it's simply so much more usable a UI.

Well, Ive was one of the most outstanding executive officers this company's ever produced. He was brave, outstanding in every way. And he was a good man, too, humanitarian man, a man of wit and humor. He joined the Software Engineering Group. After that, his... uh... ideas... methods... became... unsound... unsound.

Now he's crossed into California with this anti-skeuomorphic army of fanatics that... worship... the man... like a god, and follow every order, however ridiculous...

...very obviously, he has gone insane.

Your mission is to proceed down the San Francisco Bay in a Blue Navy petrol boat, pick up Sir Ive's path at Cupertino, follow it, learn what you can along the way. When you find the officer, infiltrate his team by (ahem-hem) whatever means available, and terminate the executive's position.

I don't think he even knows this site has comments. Or that it's a website at all. He probably thinks he's just singing into a can.

Ives is probably the worlds foremost product designer

Ah. Ah ha. Ha. Ha Ha Ha. Oh, that is priceless. Just priceless. Ive's work is at best, a mixed bag, and he surely isn't the world's foremost designer. I can think of any number of designers that make him look like the pretentious hack he is. Starting with any number of supercar designers, wandering off into audio equipment and musical instrument design, heck, there are even refrigerators that are designed better than Ive's work product. Also, Scott Forstall's ideas were far better in terms of design than Ives. He just wasn't minimalist -- but minimalist is not a synonym for "good", and in fact, very seldom is that the case.

Applelapse Now!

...terminate... with extreme prejudice.

P.S.=> QUESTION: How badly have I dusted you in tech debates that you're reduced to such childish reprehensible bullshit, hmmm?

(Your ego a bit "bruised" ? Yes, obviously! Clue: Don't mess with your BETTERS then (in myself))... apk

Oh, APK! You're my hero! Please impregnate my wife and daughters! I just wish I could be as big and strong as you. And smart! Ever since I started using your hosts file, my whole world is better! Much better than when I was using MyCleanPC!

We haven't had a good laugh in weeks!

You think I'm funny? Funny how?

Of course I want it, I love sponge cake! It's like eating a delicious sponge!

Have you worked at all in any capacity respecting intellectual property?

Riff!

No in Jurassic Park they didn't make Males.

Correct. It's hard to believe that somebody actually tried to correct you on that after you had corrected GP...

Females can in theory spontaneously reproduce... Males cannot.

Well, in mammals that's true... the Y chromosome causes male development. Birds (and lizards, I think) are the opposite, though... the male has two identical sex chromosomes, whereas the females have a dissimilar pair. Who knows, maybe that makes a difference?

With regards to rooster-to-hen transitions, apparently some of them have laid eggs: every now and then, a disease may cause a rooster to change its gender and become a hen, or vice-versa. Some of these roosters-turned-hens have actually laid eggs. Whether or not those eggs could be fertilized remains a mystery, but I don't see any reason why they could not.

Hen-to-rooster transitions, apparently, are sterile: The hen does not completely change into a rooster, however ... while the hen will no longer lay eggs, she won't be fathering any offspring, either

So... you never know.

Jobs comes across as the greediest villain (black turtleneck sans fluffy white cat) since the early days of Bill Gates

I think he'd make an excellent impression of this guy if he donned a cape with a hood.

Just take the male map, remove reason and logic and voila, female brain map.

It took me a while to remember what your comment reminded me of.

Rolling stones don't gather Moses. ...

That's why you're studying a Ph.D.

I got no idea what you're saying.

What language are you studying in?
