  1. Re:Alternatives? on Google Reader Being Retired · · Score: 1

    Amen. I am also dreading the demise of igoogle. For what it's worth, netvibes seems to be similar enough. I'm running both in separate tabs, just to try to wean myself off igoogle. It's not working though. I still go back to the igoogle tab because it feels like home.

    Sorry, I meant to do that earlier. It's from the song Alice's Restaurant by Arlo Guthrie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjKF7aQthcQ

    I want to see dead, burnt baby bodies. I want to see veins in my teeth.

    It's like a helmet law. "Which is even stupider, the idea behind the helmet law being to preserve a brain whose judgment is so poor, it does not even try to avoid the cracking of the head it's in." to quote Jerry Seinfeld.

  5. WTF from TFA on Parking Attendant 2.0 · · Score: 1

    What the hell is this supposed to mean? From TFA:

    "It is a complete virtual impossibility that damage can occur," he said.

    Yeah, I want THAT guy in charge of the robotic parking system. Ugh...

  6. Related story on The End of Net Anonymity In Brazil · · Score: 1

    "will require every ISP to store each connection performed by a user for at least 3 years" In a related story, Brazil announces a massive RFQ from storage vendors.

  7. Hidden agenda? on The Hubble Lives On · · Score: 1

    I smell something fishy. My guess is that the batteries were manufactured by Sony and this is the real reason for the mission to repair. This will officially be the longest distance battery recall in history.
