You mean like the iPhone...Oh, wait, that was a rushed piece of [bleep] as well.

Especially if you held it "wrong".

who the heck wears a watch nowadays, other than old people...And why would I want to be constantly interrupted by stuff I don't want to do anything about?

So you can more easily press the "F off!" and/or "Get off my lawn!" reply button.

Yeah, and Microsoft...had phones YEARS before Apple did.

But people expect Microsoft to suck.

We use Microsoft because help for all the glitches and work-arounds are relatively easy to find because everybody else uses Microsoft and gijillion people already ran into and documented the issues we encounter. It's the Network Effect applied to volume suckage.

Microsoft just couldn't sell enough phones for the Volume Suckage Network Effect to kick in.

I suspect Intel will find a way to keep AMD alive using pricing games to avoid both anti-trust accusations and the appearance that X86 cpu's are a dying biz. Intel and AMD need each other whether they like it or not.

why central Texas has water is because of the creation of a lake system via dams. This would be never, ever done today...

You imply it's Fate's Will and/or a "good thing" that we heavily populate arid land.

I suppose you could argue "we do it because we can", but then don't whine when Blow Back hits.

You mean Gayzilla [snicker snort giggle]

Equal Opportunity Outsourcing

You never see a cat coming from a dog, or a duck from a crocodile...

Booyah!

You're gonna raise some really screwed up kids ... but screwed up in an interesting way.

Did you hear about the dyslexic agnostic insomniac?

He stayed up all night wondering if there is a Dog.

If this keeps up, there may someday be a huge ring around Saturn.
