    $600 for an underpowered everything? For a second there I thought my repair business was done for! ...I really need to adapt to the smartphone repair market...

  16. As much as I can hate MS, for enterprise-level bullshitting this isn't that bad. Well, it definitely could be WORSE! Ever try to use XP's built-in remote PC through the internet? First you go to Help & Support, dick around until you find the help a friend button, but uh-oh you don't have a Windows Live (formerly .NET Passport(TM)) account & Windows Live Messenger (formerly Windows Messenger) is out of date as well! So you create an account & log in but it still doesn't work because Microsoft was just dicking with you this whole time.

    Put on your tinfoil hats, cause this is how it works: The rich elite that control the central banks finance the politicians that run the military that invade the land of the sand people to take their oil to benefit the bankers that have conveniently invested in the most wasteful forms of energy because waste means profit through cyclical consumption & designed obsoletance which is the same reason you can't clean the fucking fan so it runs out of warrantee so you end up having to run to the store to buy another one because it's broken so open the door get on the floor everybody walk the dinosaur.

  22. Too late on Army Psy Ops Units Targeted American Senators · · Score: 2, Insightful

    We gave up any meaningful right when we signed the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, & any remaining freedoms with the PATRIOT Act of 2001, so what say you, puny civilians?

  23. Still exists, still sucks on Talking To Computers? · · Score: 1

    Back when I was demoing Windows 7 on one of my machines, I tried to get it's built-in voice recognition working, which I DID, but it was butchered beyond usability. Ironically, the simpler low-tech voice recognition in my (at the time) Windows Mobile 6.5 phone worked beautifully! "Call mom" "Play the beatles", etc, it all worked w/o error.
