  1. Re:So long, Apple on Apple Unveils iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S · · Score: 1

    If anything, it just shows that the 5C should be more than $100 cheaper.

    Yeah, 3GS!

  3. The hell, Apple? on Apple Unveils iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S · · Score: 2

    No update to the iPod shuffle?

    I'm kidding, of course. The current model is perfect, don't mess with it. We don't need another Third-Generation disaster.

  4. Re:Next time I travel with the broken laptop on Device Security: How Border Searches Are Really Used · · Score: 1

    I'm over 30 and never used Windows ME in my life, not even for one second. All I heard was that it could cause seizures.

    Install OS/2 on it, just to mess with them.

    New iPhone with a fingerprint scanner, wink-wink. Know what I mean?

    I didn't know all email and FTP servers were located in the USA.

  8. Re: Backward thinking?? on Big Jump For Tablet Storage: Seagate Intros 5mm Hard Disk For Tablets · · Score: 1

    And they're still selling a lot more horse buggies than Ford, Chevy, GM, Toyota, Honda and Nissan combined.

  9. Re:Backward thinking?? on Big Jump For Tablet Storage: Seagate Intros 5mm Hard Disk For Tablets · · Score: 1

    The folks selling horse buggies/carriages also needed to eat. Don't tell me nobody working at Seagate saw the writing on the wall: the future is solid-state storage. Seagate, Western Digital and the others should be working with SSD technologies and funding holographic 3D storage technologies, not advances in soon-to-be-dead spinning physical media.

  10. Is there anyone here? on Tricorder Project Releases Prototype Open Source 3D Printable Spectrometer · · Score: 1

    This thread has a lot of nerdy topics: 3D printing, Star Trek references, arduino, electronics, open source, real-world science.

    My question is: where the hell are the comments?

    Oh, I Se.

  12. Re:Why is Apple the one being sued? on Apple Sued For Dividing Final Season of Breaking Bad Into Two On iTunes · · Score: 1

    You get the refund from Wal-Mart, but the blame is on The Coca-Cola Company.

  13. Re:Why is Apple the one being sued? on Apple Sued For Dividing Final Season of Breaking Bad Into Two On iTunes · · Score: 1

    You get the refund from Wal-Mart, but the blame is on Kraft.

  14. Re:no thanks on Big Jump For Tablet Storage: Seagate Intros 5mm Hard Disk For Tablets · · Score: 5, Funny

    About 8 billion dollars worth of stolen material, if we're to believe the lies of RIAA accountants.

    I'm going to wait for the iPhone 5PBH.

    In fact, forget the P and the B!

  17. Re:First World Problems on Apple Sued For Dividing Final Season of Breaking Bad Into Two On iTunes · · Score: 1

    Well yes, we're all already sick of hearing about the unofficial rumours and leaks, but wait until it's official and people can buy them. It will be a non-stop deluge of reviews, security holes, hacks and other various topics about the iPhone 5S, iPhone 5C and iOS 7 for at least a month. And then when you think you're safe from all the fanboys and the trolls, Apple will launch the iPad mini 2. Retina or not? Marketing buzzword or not? Etc.

  18. Re:Why is Apple the one being sued? on Apple Sued For Dividing Final Season of Breaking Bad Into Two On iTunes · · Score: 1

    My comment was not to defend Apple because "they can do no wrong", it was because I think AMC manages their own content provider account on iTunes and they're the ones responsible.

    This situations is akin to suing Wal-Mart for food poisoning instead of suing the company that made the food.

  19. I thought we already had a digital currency on Bitcoin Kiosks Coming To 5 Canadian Cities · · Score: 1

    I pay for things with TimBits all the time.

  20. Re:First World Problems on Apple Sued For Dividing Final Season of Breaking Bad Into Two On iTunes · · Score: 1

    You could at least wait until tomorrow, my friend/troll. And by the end of the month you'll be sick of hearing about the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C.

  21. Why is Apple the one being sued? on Apple Sued For Dividing Final Season of Breaking Bad Into Two On iTunes · · Score: 5, Funny

    They didn't make the Breaking Bad series, they're not the ones who decided to split up the season in two. What's next, suing Apple because the new pop music album is crap?

  23. Re:Unimpressed on Unboxing Boston Dynamics' DARPA-Ready Atlas Robot · · Score: 1

    If it really was advanced it would transform itself into a frickin' jet and fly itself to destination, including vertical takeoff and landing.

    Rename it MySpaceBook and we're on our way to replace Facebook. We're tired of hating the same one day after day, we need a new nemesis.

  25. Re:A me too case? on Japan's L-Zero Maglev Train Reaches 310 mph In Trials · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Why a profit at all anyway? Shouldn't everything done by the governments be done at break-even costs?
