Brain-dead crap for brain-dead people.

Wonderful. This is what the world gets when twenty-somethings (age & IQ) write software.

God help the planet.

Now Proview seeks ban on ALL iPads coming out of China

...it's merely someone else doing to Apple, what Apple has been doing to others...for YEARS.

Payback, afterall, is a bitch.

Apple orders PC builder to 'choose sides' in laptop battle?

Sort of sounds like Wal-Mart.

They have the same sort of outlook on suppliers, apparently.

Utter corporate scum.

How utterly pathetic

And these are the future leaders of the world? God help us all.

Oracle demands retrial in SAP slurp spat

What about the Judge in all this?

Just how much money was pissed away on this trial anyway?

What is the point of having a jury, if after they render a verdict...the judge can say ..."Sorry folks...just don't think what you decided was correct. I'm making my own decision on this...and the days/weeks/months you have been sitting here listening to testimony has been a complete waste...not only of taxpayers money...but YOUR time as well. Have a nice day."

So because this judge has taken it upon him self to totally dismiss the findings of the jury...the trial will most likely start all over again. What a bunch of BS.

Scientists weave battery into clothing

Can't wait...

US tweet deportation: Chilling behind-the-scenes photos

The REALLY scary part about this whole thing is...

...the Troglodites who arrested these folks carry loaded weapons. Those idiots are FAR MORE dangerous than those two kids.

And by the way...just because it's "beer time" on YOUR side of the pond...have a little pity on those of us who still have 5 hours to go. OK? Cheers everyone!!

Mother charged with selling fake Facebook stock

Seems to me...

...that the dumbasses who BOUGHT the "stock" from her should be arrested for being stupid.

Facebook IPO: Boom or bubble?

You're not really serious...are you?

"...in-app purchases made in virtual currencies. Games operator Zynga, famous for Farmville, contributed 12 per cent of Facebook's revenues last year."

12% of their "revenue" is VIRTUAL? So I guess Farcebook can turn a "virtual profit" anytime they want then. What a crock!

40,000 Apple fanbois demand ethical iPhone 5

@amanfromearth

"Hows about" remembering that there is no evidence that Stevie "Boy Wonder" Jobs ever personally gave ANY money to charity? Hmmm?

"Writing for the New York Times, Andrew Sorkin was puzzled that he couldn’t find any evidence that Steve Jobs, Apple’s founder, had given away any part of his significant $8.3 billion personal wealth. What he did find is that when Jobs returned to his old company in 1997, he canceled Apple’s philanthropic programs and they have remained dormant ever since."

http://www.thenewamerican.com/economy/commentary-mainmenu-43/8915-steve-jobs-charitable-contributions-he-gave-at-the-office

As much as a scumbag Bill Gates was/is...he and his wife have given BILLIONS of dollars away to charity...and continue to do so.

And no…I’m not an Apple Hater…I own 3 iPods and 3 Apple computers…but I still think Jobs was a dirtbag of the highest order. Maybe only to be eclipsed by Larry Ellison.

Motorola slices out Razr smartphone bootloader lock

Don't forget kids...

"Do no evil" Google is at it again.

Microsoft's Kelihos kingpin suspect: It wasn't me

Seriously now children...

...does anyone REALLY expect him to come out and say, "Sure...I wrote the code, and my friends and I ran the botnet in order to make millions."

And face it kids...Linux is never going to completely replace Windows...especially in the workplace desktop environment. You'll just have to suck it up, and deal with that fact.

Update Facebook by thrusting your hips to, er ... 'Like' things

DEAR GOD...PLEASE...STOP....!!!

This is just one more POS for an increasingly BRAIN-DEAD bunch of idiots, who have the childish notion that they have to "like" things. Schmuckerberg has managed to dumb-down nearly 1bn people...how sad for the future of this planet.

Can these Lemmings be any more pathetic? No.

Let's hope he has 57 new ideas. He's going to need them.

RIM's co-CEOs quit in top exec shake-up

@keithpeter

RIM have lost massive Enterprise market share in North America to the Jesus Phone & Android phones, to a lesser extent.

They have gained CONSUMER market share in other parts of the world, however, but the Enterprise loss has hurt them badly financially.

And then there is the cockup with the Playbook...and the long delay for BB 10. This all should have been out 18 months (or more) ago.

@faichai

Exactly what I thought. Isn't he one of the reasons RIM are so far behind everyone else in "innovation" right now?

Russia and NASA plan to COLONISE the Moon

Just wonderful.

Well it may be the "birthplace of civilization etc."...but is is still stuck there.

What's that? They're still living in the Stone Age? Never mind then.

Well...

RIM demos PlayBook OS2

Guess I'm one of the "small number of people"...and glad to be so.

My Playbook does all I need it to do. I can tether it to my cell phone (not a BB) for Internet access, and that is how I get my e-mail anyway. Only set me back USD $199.00 for a 16 GB model...so I'm happy.

Looking very much forward to the OS upgrade for the few Android apps that I use on my phone.

Tesla 300-mile e-car UK debut set for 2013
