Comment Re:So why offer an unlimited plan in the first pla (Score 1) 247

anyone still with AT&T at this point is already a certified masochist.

Guilty as charged, although I'm planning to port my number to a VOIP service soon & discontinue cell service almost completely. My VOIP provider has an app, so I can still use my old cell phone number as long as I have a decent wifi connection. I'll pick up a pay-as-you-go cell for those few times when I just can't wait for said wifi connection. I'm finding that I use my cell phone for actual phone calls less and less anyway.

Comment Torn between ideals (Score 1) 189

If they put more of these cameras on the Interstates in that city they would have to hold court in every Chic Filet & Waffle House available for all the road-ragers they caught. Part of me is disgusted by this because it reminds me of the kind of stories I read about London and it's network of cameras. The other part of me remembers living in Atlanta for several years, both before and after the '96 Olympics, and how the city is now filled with degenerate scum who will drain the life out of every situation they can sink their suck-pipes into. This includes much of the Elect. Atlanta is a nice place, geographically speaking, as long as it isn't tornado season and you live in Alabama. If you ever visit, for the love of Jesus H Fucking Christ stay away from Underground. The city had to zip-tie bike racks together along the curbs to herd the human cows and keep them from owning the streets entirely with their complete disregard for everything that living in a home should have taught them by the time they were 7 years old. That place is almost a total shit-hole. People from New York, Chicago & other shit-holes like to brag about how Atlanta wishes it was a real city, but the fact is Atlanta is just like every fucked up story you ever read about those places anyway. Dream on, dipshits. Your life is third-world hell & you voted for your own overlords.

I find it amusing that people are in favor of giving poor people in foreign countries food and money, but are horrified at the prospect of giving them jobs.

I'm all about sharing, but I find it amusing that people like yourself overlook the basic fact that it's their responsibility to create their own jobs and support themselves.

A Flood of Stable Linux Kernels Released 105

Julie188 writes "Greg Kroah-Hartman has released five new stable Linux kernels, correcting minor errors of their predecessors and including improvements which are unlikely to generate new errors. As so often with kernel versions in the stable series, it remains undisclosed if the new versions contain changes which fix security vulnerabilities, although the number of changes and some of the descriptions of those changes certainly suggest that all the new versions contain security fixes."

Comment Shortcuts.... (Score 1) 190

As long as they don't change anything about their keyboard shortcuts I'll live with the rest of the issues. Firefox has been losing my patience with all of it's bugs, but i'm attached to it's plugins and keyboard shortcuts. Everytime i've tried Opera or Chrome i come right back to Firefox, for those reasons. I hate Opera's keyboard shortcuts and Chrome's tabs-on-top layout.

Comcast Awarded the Golden Poo Award 286

ISoldat53 writes "The Consumerist has awarded Comcast the Golden Poo award for the worst company in America. From the article: 'After four rounds of bloody battle against some of the most publicly reviled businesses in America, Comcast can now run up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art and hold its hands high in victory — it has bested everyone else to earn the title of Worst Company In America for 2010.'"
