Mmmm... eclairs. Nothing like twinkies which are a form of commercial sponge cake filled with artificial cream, vs an elcair which is light choux pastry filled with fresh creme and iced with chocolate on top. Now I want to wander down to the bakery around the corner to see if they've sold out yet.

Shhhhh... Googles competitors and their pet nutters are here in force, you might make them upset by pointing out that their neighbours kid has the ability to monitor their wifi permanently (instead of for a few seconds on a couple of random occasions).

Meanwhile, since I'm not american, that bunch or right-wing loons and sociopaths they laughingly call a Government is systematically and far, far, more comprehensively spying on everything I do.

Interesting to see the BBC arse-licking their cause by trying to deflect peoples anger from the worst offenders to the least.

Don't you know that every Fab manager in Asia does extra runs of chips under that table and sells them on the gray/black markets?

It's a logical fallacy to assert something is okay because others are doing it. If something is done by EVERYONE, and the result is GOOD for society, then that action is morally good. If something is done by EVERYONE and the result is BAD, then that action is morally bad.

Every public company is operating against the interests of their common employees

Stop buying things from public companies.

Comment Throw the Book (Score 3) 109

Just throw the book at this guy. He's scum. This is precisely what's wrong with the corporations on our planet and there has to be some kind of accountability, not that it would do much good in convincing CEOs to play a fair game. It seems everyone is cutting corners these days.

That is NOT how you grow a brand.

Comment Care packages? (Score 1) 168

Anyone have the jail address so we can send him care packages?

I know he'd love to receive some reading material, hygiene products, junk food... etc. I think there are lots of posts on prisonlinks.com that talk about what you can and can't send a prisoner in the USA but I'm not sure about Sweden.

Two things would survive a nuclear war, roaches and Microsoft Office.

The last MacOSX update (10.8) killed my Office 2001 install, I tried to update with 2010 (I think it was that version) and it failed to install - didn't recognise the license key that came with the CD, when I tried calling the MS support number you had to enter your install code to get support - and guess what - it wouldn't recognise the key and there was no way to talk to a person through the menu system without a code. So at home at least, MS Office is dead to me.
