You have broken the first rule of Grammar Naziism; you did not correct their mistake. For it, we shall send you to the Pit of Cryrock, and there you shall stay until you repent of this sin.
I am currently lying down, half in my seat, half in my bed(which is adjacent to my seat). Since I have a clunky desktop on a level desk, I have my head at a 70-degree angle. My wireless keyboard is on my desk also, since I'm far too lazy to do anything about that, and my wireless mouse is on the wall opposite my bed., being controlled by my feet.
I believe that/. should be the premier source for technological news today: that includes, of course, that proficiency in English so required of thine common nerd. Hence, my blood started boiling as soon as I read this:
of it's S60
The difference between its, it's and such is taught from first grade to the 12th; is it not unreasonable, then, to expect such nerds of such intelligence that, undoubtably, fill the roles of the editorships of/. know such basic English?
Initials can have an apostrophe, or they can lack one; it doesn't really make a difference. The AP likes it one way, the New York Times another way, etc.
However, "Party's" is incorrect, unless you have a guy named Party. That would be pretty cool, though: 'Hey, Party!'
Ditto. I've had a Windows machine for a good 3 years; never any spyware, never any viruses, etc. Common sense is the only thing required, but it is required for all parties; programmers, hardware makers, admins, users. Lack of common sense is the only real reason we don't have an utopia. I'm afraid, however, that common sense is, perhaps, the most horribly difficult thing to come by. It must be repeated; it must be reinstigated. Law, security, anti-spyware, police systems, et cetera; they are all simply safeguards.
Why is common sense so hard to come by? Human evolution provided for that. Reason is useless when speed is needed, but we no longer need speed. We need common sense now, but I guess we'll need a few million years to get that.
Why would upgrading from dual to quad have any effect on the quality of the toasting? There's a new heater version available just yesterday that'll fix the sesame problem.
Nintendo has, however, been the only profitable(game-department-wise) company. They've been making a profit from 1890-something on, and it's likely that they'll keep doing so for a good hundred years more.
While a fairly obvious flamebait and off-topic to boot, I find it interesting that, while accusing Mandrake of racial segregation, preventing people from using ebonics versions of their OS, and saying that contractions for fairly-obvious commands are, in fact, racist acronyms, they then proclaim a stereotype for its cause.
More like Latin, Greek, every single Germanic and Romantic language, Arabic, Hebrew, Afrikaans, all of the varied Native American languages, all of the various Mesoamerican languages, the varied African languages, including Egyptian and hieroglyphics, Esperanto, 1337, Quenya, Sindarin, Pig Latin, Cod-op, and so on. It will also serve as a decoder to our modern languages for historians to come, so add some speeches and such. We should also put in our forms of music, art, and what we name them and such.
For every exclamation point excess of the normal one, your sanity starts slipping away. Frankly, right now, you're at 'extremely, extremely angry, in terms of righteous flames directed at government', but you're pushing 'pop-yer-veins, do a do-si-do' angry. Then comes insanity.
The actual USPS is one of the most efficient governmental agencies in the US government. It's self-supporting, even profitable. Now, the patent office is a gigantic, convoluted mess, but at least the other part is excellent.
Nay: the moderator himself was a karma whore. You see, with being part of a group comes a natural 'responsibility', not bound by any earthly directive, but being one implied, that you will use your new-found moderation points to bolster other karma whores. Your situation probably happens quite a bit, but I would guess that the karma whore phenomenon is mostly self-subsistant, due to the nature of the moderation system.
You praise Microsoft(not blamable), saying that it's superior(not blamable), urging people to not insult it and such(not blamable), then call Netscape Nutscrape(certainly blamable)?

About 50 spelling errors, and one grammar error?

Hooray.
Sure, it's energy intensive, but we are sending the things up, protected, astronomically-right-next-to a gigantic ball of fire.
Hell; as late as the year 2006. I still don't have a virus checker.
That was my point; I am not suggesting that nobody keeps private data in a PC, I was suggesting that whoever does is an idiot.
What kind of person has his SSN in a hard drive?
You know, figurative meanings can be accepted ones.

Yes; I used to down a couple of gallons of pure botulism toxin every other hour or so. They only inject it into their faces, nowadays.

Moore ninjas beat the stuffing out of it. Yes. Moore-ninjas. They wield wii-chucks.
Erm... Catfish don't go that deep.
We have evergreens, you insensitive clod!

According to most evolutionary biologists, meat was the catalyst for the evolution of human intelligence. Frankly, you owe /. to meat eating, as well as your computer, your room, your excellent house, and the country you live in.

Oh yes; that 4 days thing is bull. Your stomach maintains a sterilized environ, and food goes through it. Hence, sterile food, unless there's tapeworms. Then that's your fault for not cooking it properly.
