  1. Where could they take it next? on Apple Implements the CalDAV Standard For MobileMe · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    To the moon?

  2. Re:Women... on Scientists' Mouse Fight Club · · Score: 2, Interesting

    you're simply looking at the momentum from a social adaptation that was natural for women in a patriarchal society.

    Sometimes that bitch from down the street is just a bitch.

  3. Re:If Apple wants HyperCard for the iPad on iPhone SDK Agreement Shuts Out HyperCard Clone · · Score: 1

    This (RunRev) could be their (better) flash replacement. But its not made in house so not deemed viable.

  4. Re:DRM, restrictions, outcry on iPhone SDK Agreement Shuts Out HyperCard Clone · · Score: 1

    Where is your source? If it was true, what you are saying we would have seen an overall decrease in battery life in other 3G devices. Oh wait these are special magical Apple transceivers right?

  5. Re:George Orwell must be turning in his grave on Apple Blocks Cartoonist From App Store · · Score: 2, Funny

    You tricked me tricksie hobbit! There was no cartoon there.

  6. Re:"Successfully"? on The iPad vs. Microsoft's "Jupiter" Devices · · Score: 1

    Well there you have it folks! This guy says its successful. What was the name of that weird cubed thing they released in early 00's? That flopped as well. Steve kept saying they were going strong and after few months everyone realised it was a bust.

  7. Re:Not sure how to comment on AdvancED Flash On Devices · · Score: 1

    It has the name iPhone in it, you are forgetting the haters / lovers that will draw in.

  8. Re:Not very good? on Opera Mini For iPhone Reviewed · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I see what you did there

  9. Re:Is there a sandbox for sandbox? on WebKit2 API Layer Brings Split-Process Model · · Score: 1

    unless your program is screwing up my system I don't care about processes.

    So you would rather see your system hang then go to the process manager? And what if that option isn't available?

  10. Did I miss it? on 15 Years of Microsoft Bob · · Score: 1

    I read the article, nice step back in time, but other then a simple "I think it felt like it didn't treat the user maturely" no other reason are given to why it failed.

  11. Re:Using a pseudonym when it sucks on Battlefield Earth Screenwriter Accepts Razzie · · Score: 1

    Or this guy wasn't a hypocrite. He wrote a bad movie, shrugged, paid some bills, and got on with his life.

  12. Re:Good. on GoDaddy Follows Google's Lead; No More Registrations In China · · Score: 1

    And every abroad company that thinks it will get more freedom then the native locals!

  13. Didnt they already say this when... on How Artificial Intelligence Is Changing Music · · Score: 1

    "In the future, it could be harder to make money playing guitar with all of the competition from dead or retired artists." Wasn't this a comment when synthesisers and computers started to seep into music? There will always be a market for original authentic musicians. And as long as a human still presses the buttons and tunes knobs is it really AI? By that accord iTunes Genie (Or what its called) is a valid DJ.

  14. Am I the only one? on New Wave of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Sometimes I gets this weird feeling that for every medicine discovered nature pushes back with one that is more effective and deadly. Is the idea of world without diseases (never mind getting the medicine to all people) a utopia that will never get reached?

  15. I think its time... on US Gov't. Ending Its Hands-Off-the-Internet Stance · · Score: 2, Insightful

    LEAVE INTERNET ALONE!!

  16. Re:Does this count? on What Has Your Phone Survived? · · Score: 1

    Steve Jobs likes to think so :)

  17. Re:Threatening without having the balls to do it on Google To Restart Talks With China · · Score: 1

    When were they (Google) anything different? China didnt destroy Google's credibility. Google did. First when they actually thought they would get treated better then the average 9 to 5 worker. Then by making claims they couldn't back up with evidence. And now by continuing talks...

  18. Re:Welp, that's it on Southwest Declares Kevin Smith Too Fat To Fly · · Score: 5, Informative
  19. Re:Welp, that's it on Southwest Declares Kevin Smith Too Fat To Fly · · Score: 1

    Last known picture i saw of him was on a piece about Apple at the latest Macworld (I think it was there, wired.com may be your friend). He didn't look that big to me neither but maybe when flying coach...

  20. Huh on Verizon Blocking 4chan · · Score: 1

    Seems a tad bit juvenile... although this should speak to their target audience.

  21. Only one thing to do then eh? on Future Ubisoft Games To Require Constant Internet Access · · Score: 1

    Hoist the black and white flag matey! Argh.

  22. Re:Err, what? on The Apple Paradox, Closed Culture & Free-Thinking Fans · · Score: 1

    This would be the Mac OS X which is based on FreeBSD?

    Thats why everyone is using FreeBSD!! Right?! Right?! No... no its mostly the graphic shell that sits around it + the various tweaks that make it OS X and in turn so compelling to a lot of people.

  23. Re:Fussy much? on Man Uses Drake Equation To Explain Girlfriend Woes · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Id love to see the lucky 26 that get a chance at this guy!

  24. Re:I'm sorry but I don't really care on Why You Should Use OpenGL and Not DirectX · · Score: 1

    Doesn't mean you shouldn't care. I'm not a developer myself but i understand competition drives consumer delight.

  25. Ah THAT approach... on Nokia Claims Patent Violations in Most Apple Products · · Score: 1

    The old "All your base are belong to us" way of technology progression.
