"They're offended? Fuck, shit, asshole, shitfuck; they're just words...Fine. Shitfuck isn't a word, but you get my point."

Quote: "The OS is a little different. If you buy a Google handset (G1, G2, Nexus One) then you get the update pushed OTA as it's released."

No, you don't. I have a G1, and the last update was quite a while ago to 1.6. Not holding my breath to see Android 2.2 on my G1.

I think the author completely overlooked the issue of sanitation.

Slums have no sewer treatment systems. All of the sewer is deposited directly in the local water system or local soil.

Slums also have no garbage management. The garbage is usually just piled up somewhere in open air, and sometimes just left on the streets.

It just takes a quick visit to any slum anywhere in the world to see that it is no way to live.

We have 15 laptops in my office with SSD, and I have it running on my personal laptop as well. So far, so good.

I recently received an automated "friend suggestion" for someone I knew who died almost two years ago. Freaked me out a bit.

Every entry point takes fingerprints of every visitor who is not a US Citizen or legal US Resident.

Don't tell that to the border patrol.

I'm a Brazilian, living in New York for many years as a legal alien. I travel quite often to Brazil and Canada. Whenever I enter the country via Canada, they ask to see my passport and my visa, then wave me right in. Yet whenever I fly in from Brazil I'm fingerprinted, they take my picture, ask me all kinds of silly questions about the reason for my "visit" (been working here 26 years), where I plan to stay, do I plan to get married to an American, do I plan to get a job other than the one my visa allows, am I carrying any weapons, criminal background, association with any terrorist organizations, have I ever attempted to overthrow a government, do I plan to overthrow the American government, etc. And quite often they go through my luggage with a fine comb. Its a completely different treatment.

I find it funny that the browsers that are the least popular do better in the test. I'm on my office's Vista machine, and here is what I'm getting from the different browsers:

Opera 10 100%
Safari 4.0.3 100%
Chrome 2.0.172.43 100% Linktest failed
Firefox 3.5.2 93%
IE 8.0.6001.18813 20% Linktest failed

Seriously, would you? The developer admits to infecting people's computers and accounts in order to advertise his services, and doesn't think he did anything wrong. How can anyone trust his services then?

For starters he should be forced to take down StalkDaily. I'm sure Tweeter lawyers are looking into this right now. And for once, I agree with such a move. /not a tweeter user
