tekgoblin writes "Today Apple releases the much anticipated iOS 4 for iPhones and iPod Touches. No word on when we will see this update on the iPad." Can't wait to see all the neat new stuff that won't run on my stale phone.

    I've heard you can send your first-born son to Steve Jobs in trade for full access.

    The plural of "touch" is "touches" you fucking dumbass'. People who put an apostrophe on every fucking word that end's with an 'S are starting to really piss' me off.

  5. An ever shorter leash for the end users by FreeUser · · Score: 1, Funny

    I personally can't wait to see what measures this new software takes to control its users and limit their access to other programs.

    A suspect a new, tighter collar for all the iSlaves out there, along with a much shorter leash. But hey, it's from Apple and it's shiny!

    Dear Steve,

    Thank you for letting us know what we can do with our computers! I cannot wait to see the choices you have made for me with this latest update. My favorite artists are now too profane for my equipment, but now I am the mayor of my local Starbucks!

    Because FreeBSD 10.4 (or whatever they're calling their fork) will detect nearby devices with previous versions, and laugh at them. Do you want to walk into Starbucks to a chorus of iSniggering?

    ...until Jobs retroactively amends the first-born T&Cs and full access becomes void after lil bubba's first tooth appears. Or 28 days, whichever is sooner.

    You are also prohibited from producing any further children as your genetic information is now (C)Apple. That was also in the T&Cs. Not at the time you agreed to them, but it is now.
