Comment Re:fnk in my wok Dallas CIA (Score 2) 210

Hah, this sentence was impermeable to me when I first read it, too, thanks for the translation. I thought I should add: I think the statement

szn in their psn

is referring to people actually changing their 'psn' username, a system-wide name that shows in friend lists and whenever the player is in multiplayer lobbies in all games they play, to refer to the current season of this one game. The implication being that this person is so dedicated to this one game they went into the account settings for their PlayStation account and changed their name to show everyone they know and play with their interest.

Comment Okay... But $400 million? (Score 2) 36

So Apple paid $400 million to purchase a company that won't add additional functionality to iPhones (as you could already use Shazam for free) compared to Google who wrote their own AI to do the same thing without sending any data back to Google. I'm not sure I see a reason behind that price tag.

Can someone explain?

No. In fact they specifically don't dwell on race or gender because they know it doesn't matter. What _does_ matter though is the *oppression* of someone based on their race or gender. That is why good people fight for equal rights, because oppression is bad. It's pretty simple, really.

Get it right next time.

Hey you insensitive clod, I use a single tab after each period. It's much better for readability. Your eye skips directly to the beginning of each sentence and sometimes your tabs even line up, creating meaning that didn't even exist before. Also, it makes the spacing a little bit variable so you get this very organic feeling to what you're writing. It's just the best and I recommend it to everybody who writes paragraphs in English++ (or even English#).

Comment Re:74 at time of crash (Score 5, Interesting) 623

It's a Cruise-Control-like system so I would assume it goes at the speed that the driver sets it at and then seeks to keep that speed. 74mph is 1mph under 10 over, which everybody knows is the 'real' speed limit and I bet is a common setting for people using Cruise-Control.
