  1. Re:Meh on iPod/iPhone Nano With Touch Panel? · · Score: 1

    Well, the change from 3g to 4th and 5th gen must be BIG, since at work I change songs and volume through the fabric of my pocket without having to stop. I've had both a 4g and 5g iPod, and would probably buy a 5.5g over a 6g with full touch screen just for this reason.

    Wow. You need to relax, dude. I'm pretty sure he wasn't insulting your mother, since that's the only thing that should cause you to flip out like that.

    Also, I believe it was implied that it was going to be all portable Apple products.

    Hi, welcome to earth. We're much older than 600,000 years. By quite a bit.

    There's proof that the levels were higher when the Dinosaurs were around, and hey, guess what, there's also evidence that the climate is in a cycle. Meaning you're ignoring that this could be happening normally.

    Like I said originally, the human mind LOVES to think that it's the most important thing in the universe, and while it is kinda cute, it's going to be our downfall. The sun doesn't go around us, and to think that a species that is outweighed by certain insect species could change the global climate of a planet is just silly.

    "Once we decide to stop warming the planet.."

    You assume we have anything to do with it. We humans LOVE taking credit for things much bigger than we are. The sun goes around the earth, you know.

    The greenhouse gas emissions created by the human race are about 3-5% of the total. The rest comes from the planet itself.

    I really wish you people would stop repeating the same lines over and over.

    I used PCs right up until my desktop burst into flame, at which point I purchased a brand new MBP. I instantly adapted to the UI, and while I'm not an emo freak like the people in your pictures, I am able to use and understand the UI and am doing research and learning more about the OS.

    I know, I know, you're a troll... but I thought I'd respond and let you know that just because us "PC" guys are dorky and not social or artistic, that doesn't mean we can't enjoy OS X and the sexy Apple hardware.

    So, don't go to the rape house and you won't get raped. Keep your kids away from the molestation house. And avoid the weapons house, but if the weapons weren't illegal in the first place, there'd be no issue there.

    Right, a lot of people recycle. But recycling paper and plastic create waste. Cans are actually good to recycle, but paper recycling creates chemical waste that has to be dealt with, plus recycled paper is kinda crappy.

    Your quoted stats don't mean shit in regards to the point we're discussing.

    Yeah, lets make it so that a website that offends 2-3 people is blocked for AN ENTIRE COUNTRY. That makes sense, I mean, censorship is fine as long as the court is doing it.

    Yes, actually, they say that their goal is for there to be only a few million people, letting the animals and wilderness reclaim all the cities. PETA is NUTS.

    Greenpeace is also nuts. They're just trust fund kids who are trying to stick it to 'the man' (AKA their father) who provides everything they have. It used to stand for something, but now... not so much.

    Recycling paper actually dumps more chemicals into the ground water than making new paper. Plus, recycled paper tends to be harsh and abrasive. Watch the BullShit! episode about recycling and do some of your own research, hopefully you'll stop harming the planet with your recycling. ;)

    Not trying to troll, just saying that I value human life above that of animals. If I had to choose between an entire species going extinct or saving the life of a 65 year old dude, I'd choose saving the human.

    Once every single person on the planet lives a comfortable life with easy access to food and water, we can start trying to improve the comfort of animals who we breed to slaughter to make hot dogs. Delicious hot dogs.
