  1. Re:'Bout time on Apple Offers Free Cases To Solve iPhone 4 Antenna Problems · · Score: 1

    I applaud Apple for giving away a fix. However it wouldn't be a problem in the first place if the signal was not so weak in so many areas. Why is the Signal weak? Because AT&T sucks ass as a carrier. We all know they have the worst reception and by far the worst customer service. Verizon has yet to drop a single call of mine and I called Sprint and they got on the line in 2 minutes to solve my problem. I once called AT&T and sat on the line for TWO FUCKING HOURS only to be told THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO HELP ME.

    I will not buy an iPhone until another carrier gets to use it. I blame Apple for this idiotic exclusivity contract and right now it it biting them back in the ass.

    The lens may be borrowed from a DSLR but what it makes is an EVIL camera. EVIL = Electronic Viewfinder, Interchangable Lens.

    The Army made video of their Apache attack which has gotten so much press. The video is not cut and is shown from the initial drop in from helicopter.

    The Coast Guard of the United States turns around vessels all the time. Is the USA not a democratic state? International law is non-existant. International waters are basically anarchy. However the authority of a state can be understood to extend straight out from its coastline until another countries area intersects it. The point is the ship was stopped because terrorist organization are smuggling in rockets which get used to fire at Iraeli civilians. They don't know which ships they are on so they stop all ships until they can inspect them. Why is that so hard to understand? All the goods still go through. Are you saying they should not be able to inspect the goods?

    News outlets did this to themselves. Point in case? How many people heard about Israel killing Turkish citizens on the aid flotilla headed for Gaza? Probably everyone. Now how many people heard about the reason the blockade existed? Probably a lot less of you. Now how many people heard about the fact that no shots were fired until the people on the boat attacked the soldiers with metal rods, knives, and bats and were abour to cut them from head to toe? Probably none of you. Yet the Youtube video show exactly that happening.

    The point is you may still think Israel was wrong but don't you want ALL the facts available? Yet just this morning I heard a recap of the events where they left out those very important facts. Rewriting history by leaving out facts is morally and ethically wrong and yet that is what the Mainstream Media do all the time.

    Scale matters not. Or to put it another way, Scale is a symptom not the cause. The reason Conservative programming is more popular is because more people sympathize with it. Like it or not, that is the case. It's not the other way around. Trust me, Liberals have money but they cannot afford to throw it away on programming that gets awful ratings.

    The biggest problem is when you put an argument out where it deals with morality then the side with the moral highground wins usually by default. When liberals try to take the moral highground, people start projectile vomiting from the hipocrisy of their arguments. While Conservatives may in fact be giant hypocrites most of the time, at least their arguments do not contradict and self defeat. Now if only we could find a Conservative who could speak eloquently, be untouchable by fraud AND keep his dick in his pants, then we would be set.

    Effecient Office design can be good but it can have it's drawbacks. For instance, we are in a suite of a larger office building that was once part of another suite. They built walls but they did not install a 24/7 A/C unit for our server rack. Instead we operate a floor model which emits it hot air into the drop ceiling thereby causing further ineffeciencies. So yes, effeciency is good but good planning and scalability and flexability are sometime more important.
