The next phase in the TSA idiocracy will require passengers to perform a #1 (pee) and a #2 (poop), with proof, before boarding a flight to prevent potential liquids and solids of terror being brought on board.
Rectal probe. You use your sphincter muscles to move the cursor around the screen and click. A few months later a bluetooth version of aforementioned probe will be announced and shipped. All hipsters with white wires sticking out of their backsides will rejoice.
Rumors of an iTablet/iPad/iSlate have been floating around for months. Nothing new there. Anyone with half a brain would have come to the conclusion that Apple won't be stuck with a 320x480 screen resolution forever either. I formally and publicly predict faster more capable hardware from Apple in the future. Now can I have my $1000 for making a forecast?
Let me explain it this way: "developing browser applications" is lumping stuff [sticks, rocks, gum] together using duct tape. "developing applications" is using proper tools [saws, drills] and materials [wood, steel, plastic, concrete] to build real things.
You have it backwards. The original way of developing apps for the iPhone was via webapps running in Safari. Then Apple released the native SDK and the world changed forever.
What the PHB-tard from Mozilla forgot was the initial way of developing apps for the iPhone was in Safari via HTML, CSS and Javascript. Since day one Safari on the iPhone supported sending multi-touch info to Javascript code and many, many other Apple originated extensions to Webkit and proposed HTML and CSS standards (which Mozilla will have to add to Firefox if they haven't already). The iPhone app market exploded when a native SDK became available. Comparing developing apps in Javascript to native SDKs, on any platform, is like comparing skateboards to cars - yeah, both are transportation, with one being a toy and the other the real thing.
We've upgraded to soft clay tablets and pointy sticks from hand painting on cave walls. There was a great debate on the merits of the permanence of the new technology until Ugh pointed out that the clay tablets harden if you leave them on the fire and that you can also take them with you when moving to the summer caves.
Isn't TechCrunch one of those 'tarded blogs that every other post is "Google did this", "Google did that", "Twitter did this", "Twitter did that", "some social web site queefed [mightly]", "some Web 2.0 startup farted [soundly]", "some [dumbass] VC invested [pissed away] $15 million for another [dumbass] Web 2.0 idea"? Or am I thinking of Mashable or ReadWriteWeb?

In English We spell it with a 'K', so "I now dub thee Knight" is correct (but We don't pronounce the "K" -- go figure).
Dear IBM,

My vote goes to Bushtard and his cronies.
Everyone knows "42" is the real milestone.
A real insult to a Canadian is to point out that almost 100% of Canada is north of Buffalo, New York...
My brain automatically reads that as:
... according to Jeff Barr, Amazon's lead Twat, who retwated a report to that effect without clarification and confirmed it in later twats.'
The "iSlate" trademark belongs to Slate Computing: http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4010:tovtfs.2.1
Various "iPad" trademarks belong to various companies that are not Apple and "iTablet" belongs to some company out of Taiwan.
If you want to guess what Apple will call it, search the US trademark database to see what trademarks Apple holds...

Nothing else need be said.
Have you ever even considered that the problem isn't the hardware, but the [lousy, crappy pile of rancid sheep dip] software known as "Flash"?

Then they [Google] need to become a carrier with their own cell tower infrastructure if they want to play by their own rules.
1) Get a patent/copyright/trademark on passing matter in gaseous form through a sphincter.
2) Sue anyone or anything that farts.
3) Profit !$$$!
Nope, it's the evil lab coats at HAARP this time...
The math in 'Numb3rs' is the IT version of "A GUI interface in VB to track an IP address" in CSI:NY...
White male science has been looking in the wrong place for dark matter. They should try looking between the ears of politicians. Mod away... :p
You insensitive lump, both my eyes are not good!

ECMAScript is Lisp with C syntax and the speed of a snail in a wind storm.

The thing about "Avatar" is it only needs a 'd' to be come "Avatard"...
