  1. Re:Safari is fast, it's UIWebView has no Nitro. on Apple Disputes Browser Speed Findings, Says Mobile Safari's the True Contender · · Score: 1

    "Slow" and "Fast" are relative terms. What was "Fast" 2 weeks ago might not be so today. 10 terabytes of porn is still 10 terabytes of porn no matter what day it is.

  2. Not just Flash on Flash On Android Is 'Shockingly Bad' · · Score: 1

    Can't it be said that all non optimized web content is 'Shockingly Bad' when viewed on a mobile device? Still better than nothing.

  3. Re:7" seems like the wrong compromise. on Samsung Shows Off Galaxy Tab, Android Allegiance · · Score: 1

    7" was chosen for the maximum size and weight that people can hold it easily with one hand for an extended period. Sounds like something the porn industry pushed for.

  4. ORLY? on Sit Longer, Die Sooner · · Score: 1

    Sitting here in my safe office cubicle, I think I am a lot less likely to die right now than someone not sitting and out there in the world doing any number of dangerous things, like driving while texting!

  5. Need to focus on German Photog Wants to Shoot Buildings Excluded From Street View · · Score: 1

    We are talking about buildings here. Not people. Buildings. If you don't want people to see your home then go live in a cave in the mountains. Otherwise welcome to society.

  6. Politics on Google's CEO Warns Kids Will Have to Change Names to Escape "Cyber Past" · · Score: 2, Insightful

    In the not so far future people will be digging up forum/twitter/blog posts that some presidential candidate made when they were 13. A future president could be decided on the fact that /b/ on 4chan was archived.

  7. Adobe Strikes Back! on iPhone Jailbreak Uses a PDF Display Vulnerability · · Score: 1

    Jobs has yet to slay the beast

  8. Re:Higher demand after iPhone 4 release in Q3 on Android Outsells iPhone In Last 6 Months · · Score: 1

    Except the phone feature is the least used function, for me anyways.

  9. Re:False on Nexus One a Failed Experiment In Online Sales · · Score: 1

    Nope, it is mandatory fee. Doesn't matter if you get can't get 4g in the city you live in. Please read: http://www.intomobile.com/2010/05/14/sprint-charging-mandatory-10-for-4g-data-on-htc-evo-4g-even-if-youre-in-a-3g-only-market/

  10. Re:Stupid on Microsoft Should Dump Middlemen, Build Own Phones · · Score: 1

    Exactly right. Why would any other phone companies use the Mobile OS of their direct competitor???

  11. Place the blame where it belongs on 'Bloatware' Becoming a Problem On Android Phones · · Score: 1

    Why blame Android for something the Carriers are doing? It's like being locked out of your apartment and blaming the construction company when it was the landlord that changed the locks and didn't give you the key.

  12. Re:False on Nexus One a Failed Experiment In Online Sales · · Score: 1

    Add $10 to that and it is actually $80 on Sprint. That is because the only comparable phone that Sprint offers is the HTC Evo 4g, and Sprint requires a $10 premiuim phone charge per month for it.

  13. Re:It's the principle of the thing and more. on Droid X Self-Destructs If You Try To Mod · · Score: 1

    More like the car locks the doors and won't unlock...

  14. Re:iPhone Evil, Android Good on Droid X Self-Destructs If You Try To Mod · · Score: 1

    I couldn't even read more than 5 sentences from that review since it was written so horribly.

  15. Is it so hard? on DRM vs. Unfinished Games · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Make a good game and sell it at a reasonable price and people will buy it. Don't worry about those "lost" sales from people pirating the game, most of them wouldn't have bought the game anyways.

  16. Re:How does it compare to other phones? on Consumer Reports Can't Recommend iPhone 4 · · Score: 1

    Do the testers all hold the phones with their left hand?

  17. Uninstall Shazam on Open Source Music Fingerprinter Gets Patent Nastygram · · Score: 1

    This is the sort of behavior which causes me to never give a single penny to a company. I am uninstalling Shazam and won't be using it again.

  18. Re:Favorite graphic designer story on Pixel Inventor Goes Back To the Drawing Board · · Score: 1

    Indeed. Might be a pain in the ass since you would have to redo the design in a higher resolution but certainly possible.

  19. UC Davis? on Student Wants Science To Name 'Hella' Big Number · · Score: 1

    In Norcal they use 'hella' for everything. While we're at it why not a petition to formally change San Francisco's name to The City.

  20. Re:Approved apps? on More Trouble In Apple's App Store · · Score: 2, Funny

    Can't wait to see Steve Jobs e-mail reply to a user asking what Apple is going to do about this problem. "Just don't purchase those apps. -Steve"

  21. Re:This is all from the Mumbai terror attacks on Indian Government Threatens RIM, Skype With Ban · · Score: 1

    Because using ducks or oranges in a bank heist would be too hard to understand.

  22. What would this mean? on EU Plans To Make Apple, Adobe and Others Open Up · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Would I be able to sync my iPod without having to use iTunes? Or access my iTunes share with any DAAP client??? Would this stop Apple from preventing the Palm Pre from syncing with iTunes?

  23. Re:Survey stinks, iPad doesn't on The State of iPad Satisfaction · · Score: 1

    Just what Android devices do you have experience with? For me the Nexus One is every bit as responsive and smooth as the iPad.

  24. Not just Android on Hack AT&T Voicemail With Android · · Score: 3, Informative

    My friend used a application like this to fake his caller ID using his iPhone. Though it might have required jailbreaking to install.

  25. Re:Here's your roundup on iPhone 4 News Roundup · · Score: 1

    I personally feel the same way. I think Apple makes great products but I hate that they try to control everything that you can do. And for that reason I will not buy another Apple product. Still I won't hesitate to recommend a iPhone to a friend if I think they will enjoy it.
