...I wonder which is more popular amongst geek culture. Android is Linux based, so it has a ton of geek cred...but many a geek has allowed Apple's products to take them over (Ars Technica recently had a statistic in which roughly 26% of their visitors use macs)
Fucking e-books. Why does it cost more to buy an e-book than it does to buy a dead-tree paperback? wtf?
I absolutely adore my nook, but it's filled with public works and books that have been gifted to me...I refuse to pay $10 for a digital copy of a book.

Jeremy: "So, you're like a one-ranger army coming at me and I'm like SCUD STORM. BOOMBOOMBOOM."
Doug: "OK, Mr. Botanical tank with no balls, that's all I gotta to say. It's like 'Botanical tank, Look at me, no balls, no balls!" Jeremy: "You wanna see some balls? My Nuke Overlord will show you some balls!"
Ah, such an oldie but a goodie...the TV show was decent, but there was nothin' quite like the early web episodes...
As a longtime PC and Console gamer, I am extremely happy that they didn't merge the two. I do a lot of gaming on consoles nowadays...I like my big flatscreen, and I like being on my stationary recumbent bike while gaming. Still, there are times when a game is just meant to be played on a PC (Dragon Age being a perfect example)...I think the connectivity between a console and a PC nowadays is awesome...but I still want them to be two seperate boxes.
Even if a game is a perfect port and plays/looks exactly the same, there is still something about the experience that is different.

I combined your mom's use of kinematics, dynamics, and lubrication principles with my mechanical systems last night.
OH SNAP!
The hardware looks decent (except for that low-res screen...wtf?), but I'm not entirely sold on the new OS revision.
Disclosure: I've never been much a fan of Blackberry OS.
Yay for 30-pin insanity! Kill everyone now! Condone first degree murder! Advocate cannibalism! Eat shit! Filth is my politics! Filth is my life!
Oh, John Waters...how crazy you are.

I love that an organization is a danger because it reveals coverups and secrets to ordinary citizens.
"But Pojut, our enemies will use this information against us!"
Well then maybe we shouldn't be doing it in the first place. Doy.
We shouldn't have been there in the first place.
Anyone remember Hover!, a game that came on the Windows 95 disk? Good times, good times.

Brother, if only you knew...
I still find a touchscreen keyboard to be a bit wonkey...for me, it isn't an accuracy problem, but a tactile problem.
I'd have to say you're a lying, jealous piece of shit. Really.
So...I'm jealous of people using a product that I myself do not wish to use? Yeah. Because that makes sense.
I appreciate the judgement though, thanks for letting your true colors shine brightly.
Wasn't saying you did, just building on your comment is all :-)
