    You really think the out-of-control financial industry doesn't actually exist? Ok, pal

  2. Re:Oh ffs on Apple Granted Patent For Slide To Unlock · · Score: 0

    Yeah, just hide in a corner and don't speak your mind because the blind masses will buy them anyway. /s

  5. Re:Simple solution on Ron Paul Suggests Axing 5 U.S. Federal Departments (and Budgets) · · Score: 0

    He's not blindly eliminating programs.

    Do you really think a 12-term Congressman with a bulletproof voting record would take a blind shot in the dark?

    No. He knows what he's talking about. These departments have a lot of redundant functions that could be handled by the states.

    Now, I'm not saying I agree with the elimination of all these departments, but calling him a simple-minded blind fool is absurd of you.

    He doesn't believe in magic economies, he believes in sustainable ones.
    But I'm sure you're more knowledgeable than anyone else on the matter.

    Cutting costs on energy consumption isn't profitable?
    Fostering an intelligent, productive middle class isn't profitable?

    Low Income Housing and parks I don't have anything for.

  8. Re:Usability on No Tab Relocation Coming For Chrome · · Score: 0

    I use the URL bar a lot in Chrome. Instant is awesome. 60 px is nothing to cry about, seriously.
    The tab thing is a small nitpick that takes exactly 1 misuse to find a solution to -- not all products have the same functionality, what kind of backward world do you want to live it?
    Since it doesn't do so to the others, and "http://" has no useful information wouldn't it make sense to exlcude only that?

    I think you just WANT to hate Chrome.

  12. Re:Fine grained bans on FTC Settles With Android Developer In Data Exposure Case · · Score: 0

    Grab the latest CyanogenMod, go to Settings->CyangonMod Settings->Applications->Check "Permissions Management"

    Then you can disable single, "shady" permission through Settings->Applications->Manage Applications. Scroll to the bottom and click off any permission you don't want the app to use.

    But keep in mind, it's experimental.


    (also, "it's not that hard to understand/do" is a massive understatement)

  13. Re:Is this "open source" OS also going to be close on Nexus Prime, And Ice Cream Sandwich, Go For a Video Tour · · Score: 0

    Correct. People wrongly assume that open source means a free-for-all.

    The various counter-terrorism acts count as "due process of law".

  15. Re:Is there a new problem? on RIM Changes Stance On PlayBook's Android Support · · Score: -1

    Uh, probably because you're not a super user. So you can't do everything (just like gnu/Linux, wow!) . Critical thinking is tough.

  17. Re:Who cares? on Mozilla Foundation Releases Firefox 7 · · Score: 0

    But isn't the incompatibility of new versions an effect of new/reworked features, justifying a new version number?

  18. Re:Who cares? on Mozilla Foundation Releases Firefox 7 · · Score: 0

    Wow, way to blow things out of proportion. You're really that upset over version numbers? Talk about butthurt. I, for one, think FF7 has enough improvements (especially the major memory one, which has been a big complaining point for Firefox naysayers for so long) to deserve q new version number. but go ahead, nitpicking and hate an amazing product because of some personal vendetta.
