Mac Rants
There's a piece by Scott Wasson regarding the claims of Apple, of late, and his...feelings on it. It's a pretty ranty piece, as he says in the beginning, but it's a good discussion starting piece - even tho' I disagree with him to a degree.
Good lawd, you really are as dumb as you look!
I was petitioning the members of the troll cabal that currently have moderator status. I wasn't yelling "Troll!, Moderators, get him".
I don't know what would be funnier, seeing this moderated to negative oblivion, or seeing it moderated up to score +5, insightful.
(ps - great job stirring up the natives, whether intended or not. Kudos!)

But I'm a woman. Somehow I get the impression you think I'm a man.
Hold on.
There doesn't ever have to be a technical basis for trashing Steve Jobs.
Slimy fucker is as slimy fucker does. It's really that simple.
anyone got any hot pictures?
Ohhhh babbby... You're making me HOT!
Take me! TAKE ME! TAKE ME!
Taekwondo is alright if you're fighting one person, for points, with lots of rules. It gets its ass handed to it in any other situation. What really makes TKD bad is that most schools pump up the "self-esteem" and "confidence" angle, without giving you any real combat skills. You're better off with any other style.
Like the monkey in a tutu, that shit never fails to make me laugh.
A bunch of trolls pretending to be macho manly men. This shit is classic!
I've spread my asscheeks; now where is my daily dose of the schlong?!
I see the thrill!!!!

what?
Three Dollar Fucking Crack !!
Thank you.
Although I've taken TKD, I think that Judo (which I've never actually been trained in) would be one of the best fighting techniques to learn. The physics involved in Judo fighting pretty much guarantee success when applied correctly, without requiring nearly as much force from the user. As an aside, although I don't know Judo, I use similar techniques when wrestling and playing soccer for fun and find that a well placed hip and/or shoulder can wreak havoc on any luzer, no matter what their size.
I hope :)
Try to please everyone, and you will please no one!

- Ressurect old flamewars. Mac vs PC. CPU Architectures. How many mouse-buttons. Window managers. Big or little endian. ANSI C. Open Sourcing . BSD vs Sys V.
- Articles on old/obscure products with fanatical followings. Amiga. Tandy CoCo. VMS. CP/M. Z80. Toss these folks a bone to gnaw on.
- Use misleading headlines or mischaracterize stories. Chapter-11 means "going down in flames." Wall Street Journal saying "Linux not for everyone" is "Capitalist pigs bash plucky OS".
- Report on a topic. Follow up with how the topic is overhyped. Followup yet again pointing out how the topic is really important. Repeat ad infinitum. see "Code Red" for tips on this strategy.
- Report on "interviews" where someone has selectively edited together various public statements. See Sony Pictures on how to use clips to attribute misleading sayings ("Planet of The Apes... not... as bad... thought.")
In orfer to boost pageviews these strategies will be rolled out on a daily basis. Expect to see one application every 24 hours. Should our income not rise as projected we will then have to move on to targetted marketing projects with our new "partners".I don't read ACs: If a post isn't worth so much as a nom de plume to its author then I wont bother either.

Go ask for your momma, pansyboy. Gayboy retard.
You're a fucking idiot. Honestly. I don't think you're intelligent at all. You're probably ugly too. I'm sure you smell as well.
Go wack off to Britney Spears, you pimply little teenager.
And go tell Raging Idiot to continue on his quest for negative karma. Tell him to persevere.
That's ok, I'm a kangaroo. Just whip out the old Black and Decker and satisfy my animal urges -- NOW!
Haw. I can easily take on a fatass troll like yourself, who doesn't know how to properly use a firearm. You could have TWO firearms, and I'd still beat your ass into a bloody pulp.
Yippie kay ay, mother fucker.
Hah!! I have YOU beat. I'm 12'4" 600lbs. I am a blackbelt in ALL martial arts. I teach Green Beret's how to kick butts. When I walk, the ground shakes.
But ya gotta admit that this has been one of the funniest troll/offtopic/flame fests I've seen all year on slashdot. Sooo funny! Mod whole thread up: Funny +1.
I'd be really scared if I were a 2x4. TKD is really pretty with all the kicks and fun for kids with all the board breaking, but is more or less useless in a street fight. And if you're wondering, I hold black belts in TKD (which I earned at 12 years old) and Kenpo. And I'm 6'3" 225, run a 4.9 40, bench 350, and was a two sport scholarship athlete in college. Thanks for playing; we have some wonderful parting gifts for you.
Fear my kung-fu.
When you are down, or frustrated, come here....
We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are.
After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together,when we get a nicer car, when we are able to go on a nice vacation, or when we retire.
The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is the way.
So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with...and remember that time waits for no one.
So, stop waiting....
* until your car or home is paid off
* until you get a new car or home
* until your kids leave the house
* until you go back to school
* until you finish school
* until you lose 10 lbs.
* until you gain 10 lbs.
* until you get married
* until you get a divorce
* until you have kids
* until you retire
* until summer
* until spring
* until winter
* until fall
* until you die
There is no better time than right now to be happy.
Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
So - Work like you don't need money,
Love like you've never been hurt, and
dance like no one's watching.
If you want to brighten someone's day, pass this on to someone special-I just did.

We all know you're out there. I think you know what to do to this guy. He's just askin' fer it.
>No, you won't. I'm 6'1" and 185 pounds. I play football. I know Tae Kwon Do. Mmmmkay?
Ummmm...... I'm 5' 2" and weigh 315 lbs, but I have a gun.
Fuck you.
This is probably a bit off-topic, but how does a story like this (someone ranting about Mac) get posted, and the article I submitted last week about PCI 3.0 (only the future of next-generation I/O for PC's) doesn't get posted? I believe the gods of priority for "News for Nerds" and "Stuff that matters" have sold out. Sorry for the additional rant, but it is a bit frustrating to be reading something completely and totally useless where something more useful and informative should belong.
My G3/400 (B&W) turns 3 years old next month.. still a very nice workhorse on them adobe apps and I use it heavily with both photoshop and illustrator... it's fun to see the pc (windows) users with their new GHz boxes struggle away... :)
Oh right, so you can toss yourself off while you play Quake? YOU FUCKING IDIOT.
Oh wow, I'm scared. What are you going to do, give me a long, passionate sucking? No thank you. Go play with your peepee instead, dude. You are such a fucking fucktard.
Yes I will. I'm 6'6", 250lb and I am a bare-knukle prize fighter. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm-k?
You, sir, are hopeless. Ever consider eugenics as a viable alternative? You are too fucked up to continue living.

Well I'm 6'4", weigh in at 380 lbs, and am a system administrator at a large telco...i.e. I'm easily agitated. I have big, powerful hands, and cary a Spyderco Viele. Don't make me get up off my aeron chair, rip your abdomen open, and feed you your intestines. Oh, and I play football with small animals, children, and human heads.
