Neither do I, what's the joke here?

Feist is on her fourth album, and it was released on Interscope/Polydor. Hardly fits the description of a Canadaian artist's second album released on an indie label. In fact I can't find anything fitting that description on the iTunes chart. The fact that the poster didn't name the artist makes me suspect they are full of shit.

Same here. I haven't had any mod points for 6 months, whereas I used to get them all the time. As far as I know, I have never abused the system - probably someone disagreed with the opinions I had moderated up.

Silverlight won't work in the plug-in free Metro IE either. What's the relevance of bringing that up? This isn't Microsoft's attempt to replace Flash with Silverlight.

Why not try the blind test and find out for yourself? If it's too tiring for you, you can always break it into separate sessions. There's no reason for your ears or your temporal lobe to get tired after listening to music samples for 5 minutes. By the way, your friend's MP3 player could well have been playing Xin-encoded 128kbps MP3s - that's not what we are talking about here. Try comparing a decent lossy encode to the equivalent FLAC. Unless of course, you want to carry on with the self-delusion that you are capable of hearing a percepitble difference where countless others have tried and failed. That's fine, kid yourself if it makes you feel better, but there's no need to come on here and spout ill-informed nonsense.

People, this could be massive ^^
Could have been, but turns out as usual they were just posting silly images and indulging in short-lived DDOS attacks. If only they would use their talents for good.

It makes the web unusable. I don't want to spend half my browsing time clicking on popups to decide if I want to allow every innocuous minor action by a pirce of sandboxed javascript code

Yep. These stories are always shill plants by PR firms. Shame a reputable news organization like CNN doesn't do some fact-checking to figure out this story is bogus

How did this get modded Insightful??? If you read TFA you'd see the model of phone was mentioned (HTC Evo).

You can only get the latest version of Xcode 3 with the free developer account. For a 4.x version you need the $99 developer account or to pay $4.99 from the mac app store

It's dealing with a much lower resolution, and therefore requires much less processing power to get equivalent performance on a smaller scale. It's perfectly cromulent.

The untethered 4.2.1 jailbreak was announced back in November. Still no sign of it, and iOS 4.3 is almost upon us. Pure vaporware. http://www.gaj-it.com/27639/greenpois0n-jailbreak-for-ios-4-2-1-coming-in-the-next-few-days/

The new Facebook page (as listed on the official uriminizokkiri site) is now

presumably because the uriminzokkiriLike rapidly got trolled to hell. The news page is a private profile, you can read the posts made by the author but you can't write anything on his wall.

Dude, you're comparing a smartphone to an MP3 player. Apples and oranges, so to speak.

The benefit is: If it crashes, you can do something about it.

Sure. And how often have you re-written and recompiled an open source graphics driver? In fact, how often have you even bothered to look at the source?

For the vast majority of users, a driver that just works is preferable to a an open-source mess of a driver that has awful performance
