    It is always cheaper to buy a congressman than to be a better business. Telcos are oligopolies; the worst form of business for the consumers. From that basic cluster fuck all other pain flows.

    AT&T never has them in stock, hmm I wonder why? Oh because they have a crap network, crap support, and spend all their retained earnings branding their god damn phones instead of doing their fucking job.

    No shit. Wake up Americans. "Free market economics" is a dream that we lack. Oligopolies operating in natural monopolies is just a terrible rape fantasy for investors. Either make it a well regulated monopoly or break the fuckers up and limit the size of any telco to something tiny. THE CURRENT SYSTEM IS NOT A FREE MARKET!

    You think it is? Your a moron.

    You think state owned monopolies will lead to worse service and higher prices? Prove it with examples from this century.

    It voids the warranty of a new Sthil chainsaw. Do not put it in any 2 cycle device or outboard motors. It allows water into the gas. It causes varnishing as well. But basically ADM is a bunch of fucks.

    I have recently seen both quotes + and - ignored by google. Seriously WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON? Google google cheat sheet. If their own operators are no longer working the end is definitely fucking neigh for google as my search engine. I was deeply annoyed when this was happening in froogle (sic) but when MBA bullshit propagates into the search window I am looking else where.

    So does anyone have any other options?

    Is there a website that tracks google misbehaving?

    I operate heavy equipment, and by the time I can hear my phone. get it off my otter box belt clip, and get my gloves off to swipe to answer it has gone to VM. When I call them back they inevitably don't answer because they are leaving some wordy fucking message that I will never listen to. I would use this for sure mostly because I could kick the shit out of it and not worry. But it doen't go far enough, here is what I want.

    Rubberized brick with CPU memory and battery that is induction or wirelessly charged. From there I'd like a series of preogessively larger screen from watch to phone to tablet to monitor to tv that all acccess the same device. The watch for caller ID and sms to screen calls. I'd like a headset phone like this in my pocket that is water proof and possibly a flip design for cheek operation. At home I'd like tablet Asus Padphone like setup and a thunderbolt to internal top of the line GPU so that any screen accesses the same underlying OS and data (Fuck the cloud, only chumps relinquish physical control of their data) and when I want to I can play Crysis at 40 fps. My 2+ year old Atrix can run Ubuntu on a HDMI with mouse and keyboard so it is no a stretch.

    So lets pre-reply to the trolls. I don't give a fuck what you want or think is OK there is a 50% chance you are dumber than average so I doubt I would even talk to you in person.
