You have to commemorate Macintosh for at least one thing: They have unbelievably effective marketing. Maybe Steve should come and sell ice for $500/kilogram in Canada, surely someone would pay.

yzfr1guyI've been able to hear cell phone conversations on a $300 radio receiver for years... whoopiee doo daa. Our government records every phone conversation, watch what your saying, my friend didn't and had the local fbi come to our freaking house years ago... ugh. Maybe having a lisp that...

warezmeFrom someone who fought in those wars, I disagree. There should be a reason for me or anyone else to be taking up arms and laying our lives. That reason is to protect your rights or we just become a war mongering fascist state. +1 to you, my kind sir.

paigeinfullAm I the only one that thinks comments like these are a little too over the top? You're abusing a great man's speech in the civil rights movement to compare to AT&T (not apple) restricting a phone to their network. I realize it was done in humor but it's kind of offensive To some...

cptnjarheadWhy does apple persist in locking or inhibiting their products?I realize that has been their business model.. but why not make something open source.. see how well it does.. call it the i-open.. or whatever.. obviously their could be serious security issues.. but they could sell it...

I used to work with waste management. I phone fell into garbage a few times. I've never cleaned it (except for oils off the LCD). My keyboard is likely far worse though (several roomies that use it). I use to clean my old keyboard often, but my new keyboard takes a while to disassemble, so I...

enewmenHaHa..That was fun..That actually looks very similar to how I remembered Berzerk on the 2600 I forgot how crude these games used to look.Good find..Anyone want to make a 70's TEXT version of Crysis? After I read that, I bit my hand so my roomies wouldn't wake up to me laughing... But...

That...was...AWESOME! Thank you Tom's. 15 minutes of life successfully wasted. :D

Never fly again, and now never go to court unless dragged by an officer. Gotcha.

nezzymightyUltimately, you can choose which laws to obey. But this doesn't preclude you from those laws. These individuals committed crimes. They must pay the penalties according to those offenses. They are harming society because they are not following the letter of the law. Case in point - if...

back_by_demandAs no-one was asked permission for Google to photograph from orbit, could the usage of the pictures constitute an illegal search?See you in court. I support this. If I want to build a pool in my backyard, they only thing I'll do is call the city to make sure there isn't any...

Sounds like a wonderful idea, but they need to work on speed and penetration a lot before it's practical. I'm hoping they go a lot further with this. :)

I tried buying some high concentration hydrogen peroxide, but no one would sell it to me. Screw this 3% stuff at home or 20% you buy in chem shops. I wanted the 85-90% stuff. :( Cool to know though. Think a couple lil UV cold cathodes in my case would be enough?

I'm Canadian, but this is still big news to me. :D killerclickI can't believe it that Library of Congress is in the pocket of Big Consumer! Why can't they leave hard working publishing executives alone?! Sir, you deserve a cookie.

ShloaderYou say that but you offer no real supporting argument. Good business for who? Their sources of sponsored apps? I'll try and better explain my stance on this. I see the Android OS much along the same lines as I see Ubuntu. I think the two are somewhat comparable, maybe even very...
