Yeah you'd be surprised at the large numbers of people who consistently fail at aiming with a mouse. Playing l4d2 with pubs inevitably involves one of them failing to shoot a hunter off of me for a solid 30 seconds, while they stand in front of me trying to shoot the zombie with a GLOWING RED OUTLINE at point blank range. In almost all of these cases they have the sniper rifle, because it looks the kewlest. Good gun if you can aim, but if you're inaccurate in the slightest the bullet's going exactly where you put it. With a shotgun or a rifle they at least have the chance of the gun ignoring where they're shooting and flying off to the side to actually hit something... agh...
Oh, right then. Symbolic cannibalism is fine. As long as the food doesn't ACTUALLY turn into people via magic, then I guess their crazy pagan ritual is alright with me. I am a bit confused as to what that has to do with remembering, though. Should they be putting away all those instruments of torture they love to wear around their necks? To me it seems like most christians remember his death by glorifying his murder weapon rather than by chewing on some stale crackers.
Agh... I need to stop trying to make sense out of it.
Have you ever fucking learned to communicate normally with people that you might not agree with? What's this for shit? To answer your rudely formed question: Yes, I have checked the site, I know how they fixed it and I was (up untill I sold the phone yesterday) running his FW. Why are you asking? I STILL expect a fucking (we are appearantly in Pulp Fiction mode because I appearantly said something REALLY bad that started that off) firmware from HTC. Since I bought the phone from them. I shouldn't be required to install an SDK and run recovery images just to get a fw with less bugs in it. For example the Location update bug that slows down the phone to a crawl within 2 days, fixed in 1.6 months ago.
Your inability to cope with four letter words aside, I really don't know what the fuck you're talking about. To install my updates I put the.zip on the drive and pushed the buttons it told me to. Easiest firmware update I think I've ever done.
They don't control the "goddamn radios"? I never bought the phone from any operator, I just bought it from HTC. It's not locked nor branded, it has a HTC logo on the back. How does that have anything to do with the "goddamn radios"? HTC is offering a newer firmware on their site as a download, that you can apply only with a Windows PC. Just as with less-official firmware, you don't need OTA updates to get updates.
OK so what's your fucking problem then? You complained because they didn't give you the firmware, and now you point out that the firmware is on their site. Were you talking about before 1.6 was released? You know HTC doesn't design the firmware either right? You know who the fuck MAKES Android, right?
Luckily we have you on to be the well informed guy that can help me out with some friendly advise.
Want some more friendly 'advise'? Take some more goddamn English classes.
If the CEO of a company that I'm a customer or user off says something, I note that as company policy. He's the CEO. He decides. If his views are not at all like mine, then I stop using them. That's what I did. You're free to use whatever phone you want.

FACT: Sodium explodes upon contact with water. FACT: Chlorine will poison you and cause your lungs to fill with water, giving you a very painful death. FACT: Combining the two and eating it will KILL YOU DEAD! This is called dicknose's law, again, scientific fact.
OK dumbass, listen up. I watch a normal movie: I see an objects length and width. I watch a stereoscopic movie: I see its length, width, and depth. Now count the fucking dimensions.
And how many movies do you watch where nothing ever approaches the camera? Frank's Sideways Adventures 2? I know you have to think you're super cool by being so much better than this new technology, but nobody's impressed by a Luddite.

It only takes 120hz, which most new LCD TVs support. Glasses are around $200 (with like a whole three of them on the market), and will inevitably drop in price before this channel airs. If you throw sports parties with 20+ people in attendance you already have a huge entertainment budget and shouldn't find this a problem. Or you can go with the polarized projectors approach. Either way, expect yourself not to get invited to these parties, since apparently all you do is bitch bitch bitch.
What the fuck do you mean 'not so sure of that'? Do you see any monitors with a resolution of around 3200x2400? No? That's because it's fucking hard to do. Now, do you see 120hz monitors? Yes? Even higher refresh rates too? Hmmmmmmm I wonder which is harder to make.
Also if you get a migraine from a 60hz image you're a giant pussy and should really just stay away from electronics in general. Please.
A) You've been to the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall of China, and the moon. B) You've never heard of any of the above. C) You can recognize locations you don't visit.
One of these options is aligned with reality. See if you can figure out which.
A lot of it is how they bundle data. The 512MB SHOULD contain only executable code. I don't see my phone running a 20MB executable any time soon. All the bulk data is stored on the SD card, with plenty of room. DOOM, for instance, has the engine in the app directory and the levels/sound on the SD card.
The first ever Android phone, ever, had multi-touch. No, it's not implemented in the Android interfaces. Thank Apple for that. Any app can use it though. The browser I use on my G1 has multitouch.
No, those of you who leased a G1 still have to wait. I bought my G1 outright, but I'm considering leasing this one. I could get it at the affordable price today if I wanted.
So you don't think people would be more likely to lie about buying an iPhone soon than they would a droid? Even if it doesn't correlate to the number of actual purchases, wouldn't the proportion of answers one way or another still provide insight into the demand for each? No, wait, I bet you're right and they just lied.
Haha context? Who needs context when we have sound bites and terrorist knuckle bumps? Watch, the parent won't even reply. He'll just assume anyone who isn't as reactionary as him to one sentence must be insane!
Do you even know what the Cyanogen letter was about? Or do you just see 'corporation' and 'cease and desist' and start foaming at the mouth? Did you ever think Cyanogen might *gasp* actually be doing something illegal? Have you even fucking checked out the site in question to see that it's still going, back up after less than a week? Maybe you could go there and update your firmware yourself instead of bitching about it? And you know HTC can't help you figure out when your MOBILE SERVICE PROVIDER is going to push you an update? Right? Because they don't control the goddamn radios?
I think you're just pissed off because you have absolutely no idea what's going on in the world around you. Also, I like how one fucking sentence after years of being in the public spotlight can convince you that Google employees are sitting around laughing at your porn DNS requests and bad sexting attempts. Get over yourself.

No, I'm not bitter we lost. Why do you ask?
Give it up, we all know you're both the same person. Stop arguing with yourself.
The fact that he finished ahead of schedule seems to support this. Why custom tailor DNA when you can use that whole 7th day to rest?
