Fuck Off, WordPress (Rant 2.0)


I was typing an epic post again. Then I pressed submit. Then it took me to the login page when I was already logged in. I went to check the draft and there was one line there. For fuck’s sake, what a piece of shit. I actually spent time on it. When is this shit going to do real time saving like Google Docs? I’m sick of losing shit, like I did that other time.

Note to self: always copy the fucking thing every once in a while for good measure. I don’t learn


iOS 4 Multitasking is Full of Shit


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.


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

Ethernet port? Looks like plastic to me. Assholes.

No one cares that you left your iPhone 4 on your car roof and drove off


GizmodoGizmodo 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.
