Giz-How many drones can you lose in a month? Apparently not enough: the US Air Force lost another drone today, a General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper, this time on the Seychelles.According to the US embassy in Mauritius: “a U.S. Air Force remote-piloted MQ-9 crashed at the Seychelles International Airport in Mahe. The MQ-9 was not armed and no injuries were reported.”

It crashed where? TheSeychelles? Mahe? We have an embassy in where? Mauritius? The fuck is that? Let me get out my Google map…

I have some questions:

Where the fuck are theSeychelles / Mahe? I’m well educated in geography and never heard of either.
Why the fuck is a U.S drone flying around in some random assed place. We have no business
How much did the drone cost. How about paying back our debt to China so they don’t take us over in 40 years instead of wasting millions of
We should just let Asians build our technology. We obviously suck at life. Planes and shit can’t even stay in the air.

This is a waste of money. This fucking ignorant country needs to stop flying drones all around and crashing them, and instead startworryingabout how shitty things are here. Like the fact that the Galaxy Nexus launched in like 9 other countries before here. This second world shithole…

Firefox: Now Shittier than Internet Explorer (In terms of Security)

Lifehacker -A new Google-fundedstudy of browser securityby security research firm Accuvant Labs crowned Chrome the champion of security features, and ranked Firefox below Internet Explorer in terms of protection available from web-borne threats.

Welp, there you have it folks. Mozilla has gone the way of the shitter. I told you they were losing it over the years. Ever since that there Chrome came around, they were basically like “fuck it, we give up. Let’s just rapidly release like 6 versions in a row that have like 4 improvements each”

Chrome is the only browser that has a true sandbox, meaning that even if malicious code gets exploited, it has 0 access to your real computer. It’s good because it was built from scratch. Not built on top of Netscape from like 1997

Granted, this study is probably biased because Google paid for it. Microsoft paid for another one and said IE was more secure. Either way, I can attest to the fact that Firefox is a real insecure shitpile. One day on Windows XP a few months ago, I typed in youtube wrong and went to some rogue website and bam. Virus. Didn’t even install anything. It just buffer overflowed, executed remote code and that was it. I had to format. Another website I went to threw memory corruption errors in Chinese! What the f mang? How’d that happen? Obviously there’s some JS executing going on over there.

Ever since then, I have nothing to do with Windows XP and Chrome is my main browser.

The Fucking Apple store is opening in Grand Central tomorrow at 10AM. As if that shithole isn’t crowded enough already… Every day, I walk through there at about 9:45. I’m not going to make it tomorrow. I already warned my boss that I’ll be in at 1:45 due to mobs. I’m sure there are people there right now with tents and shit just occupying Grand Central waiting to raid this Apple Store.
