How is it even funny?

Me disembarking slashdot.org.

Seriously? Can we not get proper English? I like to understand what I read. Misleading and nonsensical headlines.. slashdot is the bleeding edge of geekdom.

Weirdly Headlines Submitter Writes

Honeywell is known for this type of practice. I remember the last sales rep that came to our office. His statement was along the lines of 'you should just buy from us because we own all the IP. Even if you buy from a distributor or competitor you are still buying from us.'

They want their section of the market and will do anything to keep it.

The teacher should be fired. The kids should have been reading their own books instead of having the book read aloud to them. How can everyone else be so far off topic?

Dear Google,

I am not the average user. I am a technical user that is intelligent and values privacy. Please make me a google that gives relevant technical results for my queries instead of the hodge-podge that the average illiterate user can understand and click-through. xxx-answer or some similar should never be a result.

The results from the 25$ incentive will most likely be skewed in an unfavourable direction when compared to the search results I am looking for - due to the demographic (which I foresee) partaking in this research experiment. Please reconsider.

Signed: The guy that is always finding google harder and harder to use.

PS - Give me the option to search using an older algorithm.

Completely and utterly disagree. Your large finger post was obviously written on a keyboard. The iPhone keyboard is a freaking nightmare.

No full keyboard? No purchase.

And your comment which claims a lack of insight is modded as insightful. How is that for irony?

Agreed, had a look the article and it failed to provide any of the following supportive arguments and evidence:

1) Pictures taken with Kodak cameras cannot be shared.
- I know this is not a fact. I get pictures all the time from my parents that use Kodak and their crapware EasyShare software.
2) Really I have more, but point 1 discredits the entire article.

Except it is true and the drivel you posted shows that you don't understand the difference between a fanboy and an upset customer.

+10 For the Win

You fool, you bought into the fear-mongering and propaganda. Sure tar sands produces some CO2, some will even have you believe that its 3 times for than current conventional refineries. This is nothing compared to the current exponential increase in CO2 emissions from countries like China and India. Meanwhile those countries that don't give a shit about Kyoto can go on stealing all the industry and manufacturing. Pollution rates in the first world will inevitably decline as the unemployment rates increase. I don't know about you, but I want a job so that I can afford a future. Cheers.

Dupe!

Fixed that for you.
