    I'm sure Pokemon has placed characters in Hell that dedicated players are just dying to get to...

    By then we will all be subscribed to MicroAppleBook on our augmented reality glasses, and refinancing our monthly payments so we can still get 16K streaming video. Personal storage will be banned by the Affordable Cloud Care Act.

    One reason: New Slashdot users

    They don't make em like they used to.

    I did feel the same way about my first iPhone too. Maybe Apple will do it again one day, maybe not. But for now, they are just milking that original golden cow, and it's starting to run dry.

  12. Actually, Microsoft has just patented a new solution. It's called MS CP. Know by it's long name: Microsoft Cellulose Pulp. This new product is impervious to all known attack vectors and requires no battery power to operate. This new technology will be available in the Second Anniversary Update, due out after the 18 month divorce update is released.

    On a side note, Amazon, maker of the Kindle Paper White, is suing MS for creating a product similar in name.

    Lawyers from Oracle have filed 1435 various lawsuits, unrelated to this product.

  13. This isn't "dihydrogen monoxide", ... It never degrades and will last millions of years.

    I would say it is likely patented by Oracle, but they are incapable of making anything that lasts that long. Thus the reason we have not seen lawsuits over it's unlicensed use.

  14. It thought about going back to basic but it was stuck in neutral

  15. And to think we are spending billions of dollars to find more of this deadly substance on other worlds!

  16. Were you doing "quality control" on your optical sensor covers, looking for any holes, in those choice locations? ;)

    One employee that works at the same job site as me is described this way by others:

    "We have to wake him up to tell him it's time to go home for the day".

    He defines sleeper cell.

    Not enough coffee, and-or too much time on slash.

  18. By writing "Good catch", you suggest that you don't often make such errors.

    I was thanking them for pointing out my grammatical mistake; I do make them, and sometimes more than I would like. I do not determine my value or self-worth on how well I can communicate on Slashdot.

    May I suggest you read up on the difference between the words effect and affect?

    I do often confuse those two, not every time, but I did then. I'm glad this is a discussion board and not an essay for a grammar class, I guess I would be in real trouble if it was. I thought for a minute you were assuming the role of a condescending professor, funny. It must be hard living in a world full of people who use less than flawless grammar, and feeling the need to go out of your way to point it out. Does it make you feel better about yourself every time you do? Do you need to do that to fill some insecurity? I'm sorry if that is so.

    I certainly don't claim to be the best writer out there, but I see no reason for stone throwing. Let he who has never made a mistake throw the first stone.

    Once you have done that: Re-read your Colonel Sanders post and ask yourself whether you made the right choice in that instance.

    Are you a follower of my posts? I'm flattered! It's nice to be noticed. I made a wrong choice, I guess the world is over now.

    Wow.
