Yes, how could one possibly think otherwise after such an incredible demonstration of cutting wit from one of its attendees?

It's their "nag you about upgrading to windows 10" software - GWX: Get Windows 10

On the contrary, it embiggens his point perfectly.

Adapters? To what standard? Are you, for example, reasonably certain that whoever digs it up from the moon rock millenia from now will have access to a USB port?

He was giving an interview to the Guardian so I rather doubt he expects most Twitter addicts to see it.

You're absolutely right, even though I suspect you were half-joking. We all know by now that programs tend to expand to use the available resources and there's little reason to think this will be any different. If we're loading pages "34% faster" then we can soon expect those pages to be filled with 34% more ads!

"An anonymous reader writes..."

Suuuuuure. Is this like when they said copied VHS tapes would break your player?

Okay, I know this is off topic and I apologize, but can we agree that its time to stop calling them "Cybercriminals"? It's not 1997 anymore and internet-enabled devices are deeply integrated into most aspects of all our lives - they're just criminals.

Well yes, but then he also said that AIDS was "the special curse of the homosexual" so perhaps he's not the best place to go in search of wisdom, eh?

If you think stories like this aren't important, just remember the fact that each of those people has the same number of votes in our glorious democracy as you do. There is no such thing as 'too much' when it comes to shaming stupidity in public.

I love when someone's sig so perfectly matches the content of their post.

I followed the link to his blog and he managed to be patronizing inside the first three sentences. That's certainly efficient I guess.

The court that convicted him was a Sanhedrin, which is a jewish.

Well, because the latter may result in the world's first genetically modified human baby. If you don't understand why that's a big deal, go take a look at all the fuss they make about GM food and then imagine it amplified by an order of magnitude.

A foole & his money,

which after with sorow,
repents him to late.
