Amusing thought from a dead and overrated comic. He obviously only worked from word of mouth and never advertised his shows or albums.

Or DID he?

But then I don't live my life according to a fucking stand-up comedian. But if you take your christ figures in the shape of a professional giggle-man, more power to you. It's your life.

I agree - slashdot is wasting our time agreeing with how you agree with someone I agree with.

Agreed?

Considering how they're doing at the Vatican these days, not sure that's the best example to cite.

On the other hand Chen is most certainly going to be fucked up the ass like a choir boy so perhaps you're onto something there.

HA! I've stopped reading all comments all the time, particularly at Gizmodo. They're tying to pull a Boing Boing. Cute - thx for the catch.

"Gizmodo is reporting"

Pretty obvious - but here's one from the link-baiters in case you can't type gizmodo.com :

http://gizmodo.com/5554994/at-this-mondays-apple-keynote-help-us-liveblog

Whew - I'm spent - I need a Red Bull. That was tough.

So ... Gizmodo can't provide news at the WWDC after obvious events previously, so they're plugging link-bait about their inability to provide news. And this is news - how? Why, it's Gizmodo news! But of course! (Get your news that's only news to Gizmodo, on Gizmodo!)

and to the pharmicom faggot who rated me troll - go fuck yourself with a electrical cord. Plugged in preferably you walking yeast infection. There - THAT'S a troll.

I'm so glad I grew up before this profit-making mania to classify and treat every fucking kid who isn't "normal" and prescription drug parenting became status-quo. Wow does it suck to be a kid these days!

Seriously.

On the other hand, I can't wait for the lawsuits to fly from these over-treated chemically fucked kids when they grow up and discover Pfizer's penis up their ass. Almost makes me wish I'd become a lawyer instead.

... Now, these points of data make a beautiful line. And we're out of beta. We're releasing on time! So I'm glad I got burned- Think of all the things we learned- for the people who are still alive.

How does it taste?

that's actually for sale now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZyNBK6M6BQ

So either I have to use Red Bull's oddball sugar-enriched BS for a charge (which I'll probably build up a tolerance to), or seek out alternatives like - METH (it's what's for breakfast! Yummy mmmmmeth!).

re: Headaches - seriously - turn down your brightness, or change the text to white on black. The contrast from these new screens can be tiring for some people. I take breaks so I've never tortured myself with either print or LCD screens.

integrated instapaper (seriously - try instapaper for the ipad - it's scary cool when used with "print this page") functionality would be cool as shit. I'd pay through a paywall if the content was better than the web version - and wired.com is mostly a macroblog site - not their magazine content.

They could create a paywall site for their paper content - and a little more - and create an instapaper-type version for offline local. They'd get both ipad and non-ipad readers all in one go.

I thought the article scored more points on addressing the HTML 5 arguments (which are far more valid - and possibly why the NYT app is better (I don't know it's dev-dissection)).

Bonus points for your book link. I meant to get that title a while ago and forgot about it. Just downloaded it for my kindle-reader iPad client - thx!
