It's very kinky.

I think the OPERA team, judging from the various responses to criticisms, have been very thorough in avoiding the most obvious mistakes, such as GPS frame dragging etc.

My initial thought is that perhaps the GPS distance calculated between the two points uses an arc, i.e. along the curve of the earth and that the neutrinos traveling along a straight line caused the error, but I'm pretty sure that something that obvious would have been noticed after they repeated the experiment 15'000 times.

The body shape of that LG Prada looks astonishingly like a Samsung Galaxy SII, which Apple has gotten banned in Holland and is trying to get banned elsewhere.

This blows my mind. Did Apple pay off the judges or something?

I think Steve Jobs was very taken in by his own mythos and had gotten used bulldozing the opposition out of the way by way of his power to persuade. I think that the idea of having something he couldn't control was pretty alien to him.

It's more than a little ironic that both Steves had apopleptic fits when confronted with Google, one because Microsoft couldn't fuck Google search over the way they fucked over everyone else until then and one because Google had the temerity to make its own phone in competition to Apple.

Now, fast forward a couple of years and one Steve is dead and the iPhone is behind Android in the market and the other Steve, while not dead, has messed things up so badly that no one takes him seriously any more.

Is this where the saying, "Killing two birds(Steves) with one stone(Google)" comes from?

And not a fuck was given that day.

Taking a look at your posting history, ouch! I guess a pedophile walking around with in a kindergarden with his penis out would be less obvious.

They really do. When I read about Samsung's lawyers not being able to distinguish between their own device and apple's, I thought that Samsung deserved to fail in court. This particular battle between apple and samsung is about as evil and bad for the market as it gets, but apple seems to have done their homework, although I am surprised at how pro-apple the law is.

Since when did working for a living make one have to like rich capitalists to whom you are worth less than the ascii used to print these words?

The guy you replied to is right. There certainly are quite a few who have had pretty bad experiences with the approval process. Friend of mine here in Switzerland removed both his apps from the appstore after Apple accused him of stealing code.... from an earlier version of his own fucking app. Yes, it is that retarded.

I'm a sysadmin for a lare design agency that is about 70% Mac. I've grown to really hate Apple for dropping of the XServe and all the server related products, and that's not talking about the anger I feel for the increasingly erratic usability and interoperability issues that OSX is bringing lately. Apple's deliberate hostility towards anything legacy, such as its dropping of all PPC support in 10.7 (and all Mac OS 9 support back in 10.5) makes supporting Apple a much more expensive proposition than supporting windows, even though OSX needs much less in the way of support than windows does in my experience.

In your post, you're only wrong about one point: Imaging a Mac from a standard image is a lot easier than it is in windows. You don't actually need pxe.

I see where the problem is.

The OP is not the only who really hates Unity. Judging from the majority of the comments, there are very few who actually like it, so the OP is fairly inline with his post.

Another one here who's switched to LMDE using XFCE. I'm pretty happy, can work again and don't have to worry about strange GUI paradigms stopping my workflow for weeks on end.

I still see many, many people using the start menu where I work. Windows 7 made docking icons easier but it in no way removed the need for the Start menu.

This is appallingly retarded and it is going to come back to bite Microsoft in the ass when corporate users refuse to upgrade because their users are pissed off and lost with yet another irrational GUI change from MS after ribbons were introduced. Now, if only the main Linux distros weren't equally or even more retarded with bullshit like Unity or Gnome 3, then things would be great fro office workers who just need a simple GUI to do their work.
