    Wow, even the biggest kool-aid drinker doesn't use that shitty iTunes. That says a LOT.

    Fuck, you're a cunt. Access the file system and use it, not just browse it. One of the most infuriating times helping an iPhone user try and download some meditation mp3's she purchased. The instructions were to right click and save file, obviously for desktop/windows users. So I said to just long press the link and you can just save it. NOPE, not fucking possible. You can't save a motherfucking file from Web like any other fucking device. I was floored. Google around, need an app like dropbox. Go to install dropbox, a free app, and need to enter credit card and password had to be entered at least 4 times without leaving app store. It was so fucking frustrated because it would literally be native and simple to save a goddamn mp3. This is one of the reasons I don't consider iPhone users to be "power users" or even "productive". Can't wait for your reply where you say this basic functionality just got added to the 11th fucking iOS.

    Annnnnnd you're a cunt. We'd be a lot better off with less of you around. You're the reason places need "decency laws" because what is common sense good behaviour needs to be fucking explained to psychopathic assholes and enforced.

    Wtf is your idea of success? Unless you meant some kind of cash ground.

  16. I've always liked Pamela Adlon, but I stopped watching Better Things because the kids (the commercial girl in particular) were annoying as fuck. Also, it wasn't a funny or interesting show.

  17. The next price fixing scandal. Fucking cunts. In 20 years, we'll find out they fucking make illegal deals like people change underwear.

  18. I worked on a Google R&D project last year. If it worked properly, it would have revolutionized several industries and for sure made a shit ton of impact and money. It was original and would have been a killer against several of Google's enemies. Someone else might take over and continue working on it because it has so much benefit, I hope so. But it's only something that can be done sinking 9 figures... Just wanted to point out they ARE trying and spending fuckloads of cash, just don't always expect a winner when inventing cutting edge technology. But I'm optimistic they'll have another breakthrough technology in the next few years.

    It was in reference to "I wonder if Apple was trying to prevent this issue by reducing processor power draw." It was more of a "no shit sherlock, Apple fucking said as much, no need to wonder". The guy is two months behind the news. He could have added, "where the fuck have you been?"

  23. Citation? My understanding is that the patent for Viagra was invalidated because they left out the secret sauce to prevent generic copies. So what you're suggesting would invalidate the patent, not reinforce it.
