One time is an overload. Every day is a jammer. That many people in one area with that much money could easily get the service fixed if that was the issue. If cell service goes down every day at my job I would be complaining.

It's ok when Ubuntu does it because there's always Kbuntu or the other variations to pick from and they all work equally well.

The internet is a series of tubers.

It's a new soda machine!

Better wear some sunscreen, I've got some right here!

What? No it's not barbeque sauce, don't be ridiculous!

This "Consistent interface on everything" is really a toxic idea and I'd like to throttle whoever came up with it and started telling everyone it's a great idea. I have different devices for a reason and that is because I do different things with them. There is absolutely no reason and no advantage for having the same interface.

Charter Cable Co does the same thing with their cable boxes and as a result their DVR has the worst interface in the history of the world because it has to dumb itself down to match what their basic cable box can do. The basic cable box is good enough for channel surfing but it completely falls apart as a DVR. Somehow the Execs have it in their head that people using a cable box at their neighbors with a familiar interface is more important than having a good interface at home. Where I you know, actually use the equipment.

Consistent user interface is the Folly of the Century.

The internet disagrees

> The most annoying thing about these latest versions of Windows is that there appears to be this new class of user with control that supersedes than the owner of the hardware.

So important it bears repeating.

Go off the grid. Join Google+

That's not what my mom told me!

The ideas are practical, implementing them is simply a matter of using the three boxes.

At least this is a clear plan. Most of what we're doing now is just a bunch of asshole fucking us around.

I have been using G+ a little recently and I like it, I call it the new Facebook. I call it that because right now it's kind of in the same position Facebook was interface-wise when MySpace was a big thing. G+ is slicker and works better plus less annoying messages about games and apps that want to mine my personal information. Facebook lets you control some stuff but they always have a little wedge for getting advertising and spam in front of me. What I think would really help G+ adoption would be to integrate Facebook as a sharing destination. G+ has a really nice share UI but only within G+. You need to be able to share to Twitter and Facebook at the same time. Facebook might be blocking a feature like that, I don't know.

I'm pretty sure the middle managers weren't the ones to walk away with the profits. Not 100% blameless but not a calculating bastard either.

Nice try, global warming believer!
