Sony Illustration Fail
I’m in the market for a new laptop because mine blows donkey nuts. So I’m looking around Sony’s website and notice this illustration. Fail
No one cares that you left your iPhone 4 on your car roof and drove off
Gizmodo – Gizmodo reader Ryan Davis made a mindless mistake we could all make: he left his iPhone 4 on the roof of his car, and drove off. This is his story of how a normal day turned into, well, panic.
Guess what. No one gives a flying fuck. Isn’t it common knowledge that you should never put anything on the roof of your car? Because anytime that people do that, it’s inevitable that the person will forget about it and drive off.
You are a moron and it’s a shame your phone survived. Plus, you were two hours late for work. I hope you got fired. There are other people out there who need jobs.
I want to read tech news. Not action stories about how you recovered your iPhone.
The Pope is an Asshole
SFGate – The Vatican on Monday issued an unprecedented rebuke of a top cardinal who had accused the retired Vatican No. 2 of blocking clerical sex abuse investigations, publicly dressing down a man who had been praised for his criticism of church abuse cover-ups.
The silencing of Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn, the archbishop of Vienna and long considered a papal contender, drew heated criticism from clerical abuse victims. They said the Vatican should be honoring Schoenborn, not publicly humiliating him, for his calls for greater transparency and demands for a crackdown on priests who rape and sodomize children.
So you get a Cardinal trying to do the right thing and make sure that priests who abuse children don’t just get shuffled around and the Pope’s like “nah shut the fuck up and let’s just keep doing what we do.” All of a sudden a Cardinal makes sense and the Pope pretty much crushes his ass. You suck, pope!
See, I have a huge problem with this type of shit. The Church has been fucked in the head for centuries and the clergy just gets worse and worse.
People Looked Like Fucking Freakshows in the 1980s
Someone explain to me the point of the 1980s (besides the fact that I was born then). The decade sucked ass. I was only 2, so I don’t count myself as part of that mess decade – the 1990s were exponentially better. My point? People looked like fucking freakshows:
First you get the whole big hair thing. It’s fucking nasty. Who’s idea was it to start that and why did it catch on? Protip: big fuckin lion mane rat nests are not attractive. Anyone who ever had their hair like that at one point should be eliminated. See that kid in the picture to my left? I’d probably piss the bed if I woke up and found nasty gross thing in my room. Then you have that dude. If you take his head and hair and superimpose it over his torso, they’re the same size. That can’t be right. I’m pretty sure that even if I tried, I wouldn’t have the slightest clue where to begin to get my hair looking like that. You need to do legit work to make yourself look like that much of asshole.
Then you have the whole hair metal rock scene (James Maresca, don’t read this part, you will be heartbroken). Hair Metal: Absolute garbage. You have classic rock in the 70s which is ballin that got suddenly transformed into thrashy noise. I can tolerate Bon Jovi and maybe 10 80s rock songs max, but for the most part, it’s crap.
<<I have nothing else to say here, I’m just filling space for layout purposes. Yes, this is ghetto. Read on below.>>
Another popular look of the 1980s which was dumb as hell: pedophile rapist glasses. Anyone wearing a pair of these Coke bottle over-sized frame shit piles of metal is an automatic rapist and pedophile. Guaranteed. I mean look at this guy, trying to lure in little kids with his antler ear fingers. Guy’s gotta be on death row right now. There is no way on earth anyone can wear those shits without being a pedophile.
Absolute nightmare of style and pop culture, the 1980s. At least people look normal today. And don’t give me any of the “oh that was the style back then” bullshit. You all looked like morons.
iOS 4 Multitasking is Full of Shit

Portfolioso
It’s not real multitasking. It pretty much pauses the app in the background and focuses on the frontmost app. Plus, Apple needs to approve it in the App Store and if they don’t like what you’re doing (such as connecting to servers in the background), they can kill it.
In addition, let’s examine the footnote. The App needs to be rewritten for iOS 4 to take advantage of this. Therefore, it requires the programmer to update the software. On a Droid, you can just multitask anyway with old and new apps.
I had a complete ramble about this a few week ago, but WordPress was an asshole and lost it. I also have no energy to rewrite it.
