Burnt Coffee and Burnt CDs

senzafine writes "Cnet reports that HP and Starbucks are jointly working on Storefront Coffeeshops which will allow people to browse and listen to music from a digital library...and have selected songs burned to cd. Sounds really cool...wonder how long before Starbucks and HP get John Doe lawsuits in the mail. --- But does this seem like an idea that would work?"

    ...as saying "All your coffee are belong to us." during a raid of a local Starbucks while seizing 20 computers, 400lbs of coffee beans, and a 12 year old Indian girl with one leg.

    I don't normally bother to correct people's spelling but I'm in a bad mood. Forgive me.
    Am I in a minority of people now who know how to spell the word LOSE?
    It's LOSE not LOOSE. LOOSE means slack and RHYMES WITH NOOSE as in rope to kill yourself with.
    LOSE RHYMES WITH BOOZE.
    LOOSER is what something is when it is made not quite so tight.
    LOSER is probably the name people are now going to throw in my general direction. Screw my karma rating. Learn to fricking spell people, you're (that's "you're" with an apostrophe because it's ("it's" with an apostrophe because it's short for "it is") short for "you are" and not "your" because it belongs to you) supposed to be educated.

    At first I was doubtful that someone would be able to work a Linux comment into this discussion. Thank you for restoring my faith in the community.
