There are Badgers, Lynx, Narwhals and Ocelots, ferchrissake! I hardly think that, cruel as he is, "Sid" is any kind of predator. And "Hamm"? Surely you're joking!
Windows phone is a design triumph! Who says Microsoft can't innovate?
My favourite Microsoft advancement is the black bar, which occupies 20% of the available screen real estate.
There's a little arrow, located on a tiny patch of this bar. I'm so glad this was done!
Without this, the Apple and Google offerings are crippled by comparison. How is a user supposed to divine that they can swipe a finger, to change screens?
The committee that approved this, in Microsoft, is due some sort of award!
The root of the recording industry came from distribution.
That was trucking.
It's why the same gangsters ran these concessions: recording, publishing, pressing and distribution. This is a "legitimate business" that grew out of racketeering - and has never dispensed with the original ethos - they just went "legit" and lawyered-up.

How about "Fascist".
That's a tag they all wear.
Why does the US Constitution matter for the Senator R/D- from Israel?
It's like watching "Brazil", as reimagined through "The Simpsons".
Mimicking the response of understanding, to manipulate other's behavior.
You are in a twisty little maze of voice options, all alike.

Are you the gatekeeper?
You hit the intersection of the two streams.
Oh, and the gangsters weren't Sicilian.
You know, Meyer Lansky, that lot.

Troll on, fascist!
America now has a Sony Corp. Apple is now toast.
Watch for corporate-driven FAIL to be the new order-of-the-day for Apple, once a proud, independent standout from the pack.
Curse app stores and iPhones, if you will. Two years from now, when it's the other way 'round, you'll look back and marvel that Apple made AT&T dance.
Today they control your arm, tomorrow - your arse.

Just keep drinking the corn syrup. It'll all be OK.
"People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people, Jeremy!"
Number ONE enemy of Truth, Justice and the American Way!
At least they are first in SOMETHING again. That 17th highest standard of living, and 56th least corrupt, just have to sting.
If "Freedom isn't free", you guys are still being cheated.

Excellent, Sir!

Writing code has just lost so much... Significance.
Sleeping w/ 109 tabs open.
That's how I roll. It really indicates the failure of 'bookmarks" or any other reasonable way to keep information at hand.
I run Linux - and it was browsing that drove me to 64-bit. :-)
What is the main result?
Broken plugins and add-ons, for the couple of weeks it takes to realize the version changes nothing, and the dev swaps a string in his XUL.
WOO HOO! Dinosaurs, frosted in shit!
Somehow, I think that this is an admission by Microsoft, of failure to get HyperV into the datacenter, vs. vSphere.
