Palm, get your act together. Apple is "good enough," and the only way you can differentiate yourselves is by being substantially better. Treat developers like gold and get your story 100% consistent, unlike Apple, if you want to succeed.

The car analogy should more properly compare the increase in non-relativistic Kinetic Energy. KE=0.5 m v^2, so it should be an increase of sqrt(10^17), which is about 3 x 10^8 (also amusingly the speed of light in S.I. units).
like the difference between being hit by a car going 1mph and one going 300'000'000mph?
Actually it's more like the difference between being hit by a car at 1km/h and one going at the speed of light. Which, would not be so different from the cosmic rays.
From which we can conclude that cosmic rays are just the third stage of cars that kept accelerating after becoming solar wind.
This is not a risk we would recommend our friends and families take.
Especially the children. Think of the children!
He should have used "mortal danger" instead of simply "risk". Also, change "would recommend" for "let". And add some exclamations, for god's sake, this is serious.
Thus, the closing sentence should be: "This is not a mortal danger we let our children take!"
However, once you've decided to push factless crap with fear mongering, at least do it with style.
I recommend: "If you allow your children to install the google demon, your entire family will suffer an eternity of pain, in HELL!"
I never heard of anyone ending a friendship over an operating system. I'm glad I don't have you as a friend.
I never heard of anyone not wanting to start a friendship over someone else's ending a different friendship over an operating system. I'm glad none of you has the other one as a friend, though it wouldn't last long, anyway.
Goo Splat? Maybe I spend too much time on the wrong kind of websites, but I don't even want to know what that game is about!
Nothing too fancy. It's a single player puzzle game.
Something like a single player chess where the pieces' movement (or "skills") aren't fixed but depend on their shape (gooey) on that turn. The shape depends on the size and color (indicates density) of other pieces or blocks that the piece has eaten before.
There's a 3D version for the PC where the board inclination can be changed each turn, influencing the pieces' shape.
As you may have guess by this point, I just made up all that crap and I've never heard of such game.

Yep, it works.
Kutulhu(+1), why settle for the lesser evil?
Cthulhu(+1), why settle for the lesser spelling?
Need new moderation option: Evil.
The real hard choice is between Evil(+1) and Evil(-1).

Aparently, simply discrimating by skin color is not cool anymore.
GBC Boot ROM dumped? After 10 years?
I don't know anything about Boot, but if they kept trying to get it for ten years, it's must be a pretty good game!
Can you imagine the same people in other fields of science?

I suppose when exactly that happens depends on your karma... get it? like, not in this life? funny, right?!
You must be an american script writer.
Don't forget, installing satan's chrome frame means your children and all their family will suffer for all eternity, in HELL!
For some reason yet undisclosed by MS.

Nice.
I'll have to plant some of that inbetween the patches of kudzu.
Now I only need a face-eater and I'll finally have a respectable death-world themed garden.
In an ideal world this would result in cheaper software.
Never forget that in an ideal world the entire DRM scheme wouldn't exist so its chance of lowering software prices would be, and is, zero.

So a combined chemical and biological threat can defeat a nuclear one, after all!
The damage rolls back at 255.
If you find yourself in a chemical, biological, nuclear zone, shoot yourself in the head every five seconds or so.
When hunger comes, you'll eat anything.
I mean, sooner or later you'll have no more corpses, and then, you'll have to choose between McDonalds and Spam.
The radiation inmunity just tips the balance to the clown pit.
Someone's bound to get bitten, and then what?
Will e-coliman protect us from the villains?
Dear aunt, let's set so double the killer delete select all?
Sorry, I tried to use my Vista VR engine to reply.
I meant to say "you can find some info on that subject here"
What happened to OSS voice recognition?

I really thought it was a parody of other brands' versions for at least a couple of weeks.
All the news I saw about it were jokes... Nobody had one...
the point is I figured out a way to use IRC to get you baked goods.
No, you didn't.
I figured a way to use a comunication media to distribute items much before.
My lawyer would be contacting you right now.
Since this pedated paltalk, [...]
Pedated?
Did it molest paltalk when it was young?
I don't understand you, so let's say you're right.
Nice retort!
. As you point out most gamers are over 18 so the 18+ rating would not deter game developers and 18+ games would proliferate.
...And so, the market would determine what should be produced, instead of an arbitrary governor.
Where's the problem?
so L4D 2, mhh, banned, who cares, plenty of other games to choose from.
So it's ok as long as they only ban unreasonably games you don't like, right?
"First they came for L4D2..."
