I guess the server's uptime is about the same as the tablet's boot-time once the /. crowd "spotted" the product.

Well said. http://goo.gl/fuylm This will probably be marked troll but any news with the word China = I grab my salt shaker and remind myself about a cliche.

I believe the other reason is that manors are usually fortified and building walls / moats around how the brain works makes it harder to work.

Pretty close to what I did. ( (300*300 + 50*300 + 7*300) ) - ( (300*11) + (50*11) + (7*11) ) This was reduced to (300*3+50*3+7*3)*100 - (3927) It's not hard at all but I learned mathematics in India.

So people who want to goto the Lincoln memorial cannot do so without Google maps? That's like saying

1. I live in Seattle and I need directions to the Pike Place market
2. I live in Orlando and I need directions to the Disney World Resort
3. I live in Arizona and I need directions to the Grand Canyon

now the best part
4. I live in Vegas and I need directions to the strip.

Follow the bloody directions on the road or...bear with me here....use a fucking GPS. Granted, what Google did here is silly and appears juvenile (if they did anything that is), but Glenn Beck and his fans can go fuck themselves.

Chill dude.

Even with minimal addons, FF 3.6 on my Windows machine takes upto a gig of memory after about 30mins of usage/being left idle especially with flash based sites. I don't have this problem on my trust Ubuntu netbook but the version of FF on that machine is 3.8. In the last one week, I've had to recommend 4 Firefox users to switch to Chrome (they've never even heard of Chrome). What's happening Mozilla labs? (Do an internet search for "firefox 3.6 memory hog"). So, umm, before introducing new addons - why don't you fix your browser's issues on your largest install base eh?

Like the article says, the wish was for the phone being 20k instead of 49.9k. They have it wrong - once they get the bill from their webhosting company, they will be happy to have something left with to buy the batteries for the phone. The host is dead.

You are right. Even the G1 has multitouch capability that doesn't have software support. I've been using the Dolphin Browser (Free!) on my Nexus one and I 3 it.

Get Playon for your PC. Watch Hulu on PS3. Works like a fucking charm.

People use Netscape? I upgrade only if I see features useful to me (or support). Used Dapper Drake for 2 years before I switched to Feisty Fawn and switched to Jaunty two months ago. This is all on really decent hardware. Installing the latest and greatest of distributions on ancient hardware just because you can doesn't sound like a remarkably good idea to me.

Get outside - there's the part about the sun and no it won't hurt you...not much and not for long anyway.

A watch tells more than just the time.

Your comment is fucking retarded. Do you even know what a striped array is? (that's what I assume you mean by "stripped"). How is it +5 Insightful?

For the uninitiated, v- and a- are Microsoft's way of identifying vendors (Microsoft is their client for whatever reason) and CSGs respectively (a fancy acronym for contractors).
