But the information bloggers dig up tends to come from traditional journalists. Obviously that's not true in every single case, but the vast majority are sourced from professionals and basically, well, regurgitated.
I understand the purpose of the masses chaotically publishing whatever they wish, and I could have expressed my point in a more coherent and less pissy fashion, but in the end the consistently low quality of anything but the most professional blogs eliminates them as a source of news for me.
Bloggers? Are you actually putting stock in bloggers? People that post vitriolic rants with nothing but circumreferential sources and bitterness to back them up? I think real journalists stand a much better chance here.
Real world analogy: First National Bank of FOO offers me a free safe deposit box to store my stuff. Four years into our relationship, they decide I need to start paying for their service... and tell me that I have to pay their fee even if I only want to remove my items so I can take my business elsewhere.
Real world analogy failure: Objects you keep in a safety deposit box are physical. Data you keep on a server provided by someone else is virtual, and trivially backed up to a safe location beforehand. Failure to exercise due diligence is user stupidity, not provider malice.
And let's be realistic here - we're talking about bad poetry, descriptions of what 13 year olds had for breakfast, and half-baked anti-Bush screeds. Not exactly precious stuff here.
Are you seriously proposing that the network connection is the most important factor in running a game? You must either be making a terrible joke, or you're trolling. I refuse to believe you actually think this way.
Ah, extenuating circumstance make it OK then - this guy was treated as a monster all his life, so he ought to be able to feel up a nurse every now and again? Maybe we should start up a fund to buy the guy a weekly bj from a crackho.
They've created a bunch of TLDs - that no one cares about. People want the classy.com and they won't settle for anything else. It's not the control of the names that causes these issues, it's the desires of the consumer.
Most of the posts on this article can be summed up as "I hate when someone makes money."
From reading thousands of posts on/. over the years, I have learned that people don't bother understanding what they're posting about before throwing out a karma-whoring Windows bash.
What's wrong with people making money? Is it at your expense, somehow? Did it hurt you, or someone you know, to know someone may have clicked on an ad and purchased a product? Is it morally wrong to allow someone to make a living? Amplify, please - I have to know the root of this one.
I'm not arguing, especially not with a fanatic. If you really feel that way, your worldview is fucked and you should seek help. It's probably some part of the root of why you're unemployed.

Sorry for the massive run-on.
Nothing makes a point quite like a realistic example that people find relatable and sympathetic.
My head asplodes in tribute to your clever.

That extra 2.5 frames you squeeze out every second must make your penis HUGE.
I have to wonder what makes you think starting the app three times will somehow make it faster.
Vampires on acid eat batteries? I don't think that's canon.
Sorry, replied to the wrong post. Not sure how that happened.

There really wasn't any condescension in the tone of that post. You shouldn't act so confronted, it's just a message board.
You corrected an assertion that wasn't made.
Ah, yes, the good old 1890s. The memories you must have.

Now get a -1, Troll and you've hit the trifecta

Using 'us' for what? Is it the irrational hatred of corporations, indeed all business? Or maybe they're dying to tap into piracy promotion.
I'm confused - was that some sort of terrible justification for piracy, or your reasoning for not using Windows at all?
What is it with the nerd propensity to prove geek cred by being as obscure as possible? I never understood it, personally.
I am God ...try prove otherwise!
Has anyone ever taken you up on your request to masturbate you mentally?
Ah, good old /.
Why bother understanding the article when you can just whore for anti-IP karma?
Yes, but any self-respecting person wouldn't be a geek. It's a quandary.
