  In other news, buggy whip manufacturers still hold a grudge against Henry Ford's descendants.

  on New Pope Confuses Technology Reality And Fiction
  On the other hand, we have sites like FML and lamebook that demonstrate people who confuse reality and fiction all the time.

  just one

  on Trent Reznor Using His Fans And Tiers Model To Save A Life
  That's great for Eric, but there's plenty of others in need of the same thing. Maybe the money should have gone towards researching the cure in general so that others and future generations can be saved. Some other kid(s) in need of a heart transplant just died because Trent didn't pick them in whatever life saving lottery this was.

  killswitch

  on Amazon Gives In To Ridiculous Authors Guild Claim: Allows Authors To Block Text-To-Speech
  You understand that for them to be able to do this after the product has been released, that the killswitch for TTS was there all along and they anticipated this fight possibly being lost.
  
  I don't care about TTS, but that that really was quick of Amazon to bow out like that.

  cheap

  on Early Warning Signs: iPhone Apps Might Not Be As Popular As Believed
  It's amazing that this wonderful software, that is so cheap as to hit the "throw money away" sweet spot usually associated with candy, is still the subject of theft. I'm sure there are plenty of you out there that said they would try it and they pay if they like it - and never ever did.
  
  It helps if you're a little pickier about what you buy and do a little research before plunking down the money. Just to keep yourself honest.

  adblocker == no ads!

  on What Happens Once MySpace's Deal With Google Ends?
  I haven't seen an ad on a website in a very very long time. I wonder how these sites make any money. Then I remember that they have ads that I can't and do not want to see.

  on Do J.R.R. Tolkien's Kids Deserve Money For The Lord Of The Rings Movies?
  Maybe they should figure out their own way through life and stop leeching off their dead relative. Maybe make some interesting stories that will stand on their own and EARN them their own cash.
