Hey… I’ve got a great idea… let’s get a whole bunch of geeks together, and put them on a shirt. People who post on techsites need their own t-shirts, too, I guess. Jesus. What the fuck is this shit? Like I need a fucking shirt to let people know that I post on a fucking website. Fuck. And with Bill Gates in the background, too. How stupid is that? Gladiators, HA. Whatever. Billy boy is the one with all the money, not you guys. As far as I can tell, he’s won already.

What the hell were these people thinking? Did they have a contest to see who could make the mot butt-fucking ugly SUVs in the world? I mean, the Excursion isn’t pretty, but these two things make it look like a fucking Rolls-Royce. Jesus. If you or anyone you know buys either one of these damn things, let me know so I can punch you in the fucking face. Fuck.
Sun announced today that its earnings were about 30 cents a share, exceeding the 26 cent forecast, so everybody’s happy about that. Apple’s earnings were exactly the same, and yet everybody is clamoring to explain that it’s the end of the world. So because analysts THOUGHT Apple was going to do better, and THEY were wrong, Apple’s stock gets devalued by everyone? WTF? Can someone explain that to me? I just don’t get it.
Then again, maybe it’s Tai’s fault. :>
From ABCNews.com:
‘A tiny motor built into the mouse vibrates and moves the mouse to simulate a number of sensations that correlate to what is on the screen. ItÂ’s a little tricky to imagine, but think of a raised Braille sentence. That is how every letter or line feels on a Web page with this technology.’
And we need this damn thing? Of course not. You only need Braille if you’re blind. I can’t even conceive of any practical use for this. It’ll just be another stupid technology that clients will want just for the hell of it.
Awesome. Sun has made StarOffice open source. Sweet. What a great move. In a few years, it’ll be: ‘Micro-who?’
Apple announced today a preview version of QuickTime 5. The coolest thing about it is the OSX window-widgets. I have no idea how they made them act exactly like they do in OSX, but they did. Download it today, or something.
From Wired:“Right now we use bar codes on products in retail stores to track everything,” said Cary Sherman, the RIAA’s senior vice president and general counsel.
“We need the same sort of capability for digital music files, only we need more,” Sherman said. “We need to know how the track is being used as well. Different royalty payments are going to (be) applicable based on how the songs are being used.”
The identification system will be built to incorporate licensing and tracking activities that the RIAA and the major labels believe is important to future of online music sales.
Something tells me there will be a crack for this ‘tracking system’ 2 days after it’s released. Some people never learn. You can’t fuck with our MP3s.
Check this horseshit out: MSLinux.org.
In case you don’t see it at first, this IS a joke site, but brillantly executed. I just don’t want to be there when MS finds out about it
‘Yahoo’s latest quarterly earnings weren’t exactly the stuff of investors’ fantasies, though it performed about as well as expected during a relatively difficult quarter.’
How can any technology company expect to do well in such a hostile market?
This guy just refuses to believe the truth. Maybe I need a mousepad that says, “Michael S. Malone is a cocksucking whore.”
