  1. Still waiting for Cock Puncher to be released! on Onion Story Gets Blown Out of Proportion · · Score: 1

    And dont tell me its not real! It IS real! I know it!

  2. Re:Question on Adobe Putting PDF Reader In a Sandbox · · Score: 4, Informative

    Signing documents, adding notes, adding addendum, filling out forms, etc. There is more to PDF's then text.

  3. Re:Who needs it? on Adobe Putting PDF Reader In a Sandbox · · Score: 1

    People who buy house and other things that require usage of e-signatures and other electronic documentation.

  4. Re:Permanently brick sort of like permanently dead on Motorola Says eFuse Doesn't Permanently Brick Phones · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Frankly, I'd be interested in knowing how they rooted the phone and then changed the boot ROMs without using a USB cable...

  5. Re:Permanently brick sort of like permanently dead on Motorola Says eFuse Doesn't Permanently Brick Phones · · Score: 5, Informative

    Funny... cause the USB cable is in the box the phone came with.

  6. This is NOT ABOUT APPS ON IN THE MARKETPLACE. on The Android Gets Its HyperCard · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This is not for making apps to distribute in the marketplace, this is about quickly making apps for YOU to use. Not that Android development is hard for people who understand even basic coding, but this will let more people making things to run on their phones. The demo video is a woman making an app with a picture of a cat that meows when you touch it. This is for HER to use, not to be distributed to the masses.

  7. Re:Can you hear me now? Nope? on The Verizon Wireless HTC Eris 'Silent Call Bug' · · Score: 1

    What percentage of new Android phone models have issues compared to 100% of the new iPhone models?

    Regardless, the lesson is the same. Dont buy unreviewed hardware.

  8. How? on China Says US Uses Facebook To Spread Political Unrest · · Score: 1

    How do you spread political unrest amongst an apathetic public?

  9. Still waiting on the BioWare / Illusion merger. on Dragon Age 2 Announced · · Score: 2, Funny

    Given how much the BioWare games are turning into Japanese "dating" sims. If you dont know who Illusion Games is, think of a gaming company focused 100% on realistic breast manipulation.

  10. Re:Indeed on A Composer's-Eye View of the Copyright Wars · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You can walk into any supermarket, 711, etc and get a pre-paid credit card. Sorry, the "its just to hard to bu a legal copy" excuse doesn't fly.

  11. Re:Correction on Opera 10.60 Released, With Faster JS, WebM Video Support · · Score: 0, Troll

    I understand what three of those mean, but why would you want to run a web browser on a bad remake of a 80s movie with George Clooney. And I dont know what a BSD is (BS device?) but it cant be very good if its free.

  12. Re:Smelly code! on Android vs. iPhone 4 Signal Strength Bars Comparison · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Um... not written by Google?

    Code says 'Copyright (C) 2008 The Android Open Source Project', complain to them. Or better yet, fix their code. Isn't that the point of open source?

  13. Re:Dont tax, remove tax breaks. on Intel Co-Founder Calls For Tax On Offshored Labor · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Same effect, less paper work. But bottom line is that if you dont want to have the jobs in the US you shouldn't get the benefits of incorporating here.

    I'd live to see the tax loopholes closed altogether, but failing that lets stop reducing money coming in (by sending jobs offshore) while at the same time paying out in tax breaks.

  14. Dont tax, remove tax breaks. on Intel Co-Founder Calls For Tax On Offshored Labor · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If you send work off shore, you no longer get all the corporate welfare tax breaks that US companies get.

  15. Great, so now we need massive antena. on EU Plans To Make Apple, Adobe and Others Open Up · · Score: 2, Insightful

    So now cell phones will be the size of buildings so that they can support the massive array of antena and dishes so they can comunicate across the full radio spectrum. Still, it will be interesting having a cell phone that supports microwave OC3 communication.

  16. Re:Just Return It on Apple, AT&T Sued Over iPhone 4 Antennas · · Score: 1

    Just return it, and pay the 350$ early service cancelation fee or keep paying a monthly fee for a phone you dont have any more. That'll show em!

  17. Re:Yep on Dell Selling Faulty PCs · · Score: 1

    Well if it was free, why do you care if they know it was bad?

  18. Re:Yep on Dell Selling Faulty PCs · · Score: 1

    Not had a problem with that in the past. In fact, I had someone hand deliver a PDA replacement for some reason. Never been sure why the tech thought that was a good use of time VS just dropping it in the mail.

    Bottom line is that Dell has had very good support so far.

  19. Re:I already solved the antenna problems on iOS Update May Tackle iPhone 4's Antenna Problems · · Score: 2, Informative

    Funny, cause my Motorola Droid has a plastic case and my skin never comes in contact with the antena.

  20. Re:Three words.... on Chase Bank May Drop Support of Chrome, Opera · · Score: 1

    People still use the browser agent for detection? Weird. Most times I see something along the lines of a XMLHTTP object creation to determine the browser.

    Frankly, if the site doesn't support your browser, lying to it wont get it to magically work. AJAX etc are handled differently on different browsers.

  21. Re:Quite impressive, but still fundamentally flawe on Adobe Flash Player 10.1 Arrives For Android · · Score: 1

    Movies require constant updating of the screen. Flex apps for the most part dont. Interface can be a challenge, but Flex/Flash even does multi-touch if you put the effort in to incorporate it. Data visualization is the key feature I'm looking forward to.

  22. Re:I do not want this on Adobe Flash Player 10.1 Arrives For Android · · Score: 1

    The Acrobat Connect example is the kind of stuff I'm interested in. I do a lot of Flex & Google Visualization development for platforms like Salesforce. I simply do not see another viable alternative to Flash for this kind of stuff right now since so many business are stuck with older browsers and will not upgrade to something that supports HTML5.

    Unfortinatly, Flash has become synonymous with "movie" rather then "application". So this kind of thing is lost on people. I bet many users see a Flash based bar chart etc and dont even register mentally that its Flash.

    Its AT&T... they're other Android phone is still using version 1.6 and has all links to Google replaced with Yahoo. What did you expect?

    Could have sworn I saw an official build for the nexus one... perhaps not.

  25. Re:Quite impressive, but still fundamentally flawe on Adobe Flash Player 10.1 Arrives For Android · · Score: 1

    I write dull business apps for a living. When I think "flash support" I think of things like Google Visualization and Flex, not movies.

    These are the things that make me want to have Flash on a mobile device.
