8/4     The new batmobile in action:
        http://www.aintitcool.com/downloads/batmobile.mov
        \_ If it's in quicktime, it ain't cool.
           \_ why?
              \_ Ignore him, he's still bitter about the one button mouse.
                 \_ I actually remember the first time I saw a computer
                    "crash."  I'd been using the Apple ][e for several years
                    and all of a sudden there arose a demented cult of
                    zombie-like users who claimed that their piece of shit
                    doorstops had godlike powers even though there was no
                    command line, no decent games, you couldn't program
                    it, and it crashed all the time.
                    \_ But dad, its not 1984 anymore!
                    \_ You never had to do Ctrl-Reset to get out of a hang on
                       your ][e!?

9/19    "No, A Severed Finger Will Not Be Able to Access a Stolen iPhone 5S"
        http://mashable.com/2013/09/15/severed-finger-iphone-5s
        I'm sure the Apple QA department has tested extensively that a severed
        finger will not be able to access a stolen iPhone 5S.
        \_ It doesn't matter whether or not a severed finger can be used.  It
           matters whether or not a robber thinks that a severed finger can be

7/31    Hi, I am looking for a monitoring recommendation for use at home
        with my MacMini and as a second monitor for my Airbook. At this
        point I dont want to buy a fancy Apple monitor -- will probably
        wait for then to announce a new one -- but price doesnt really
        matter [office buy], but it doesnt seem like there is any need
        to spend more than $500? Historically I've just gotten a decent

12/18   Happy 25th birthday Perl, and FUCK YOU Larry Wall for fucking up
        the computer science formalism that sets back compilers development
        back for at least a decade:
        http://techcrunch.com/2012/12/18/print-happy-25th-birthday-perl
        \_ I tried to learn Perl but was scared away by it.  Maybe scripting
           lanauages have to be like that in order to work well?

8/6     Amazon and Apple have lame security policies:

        "First you call Amazon and tell them you are the account holder, and
         want to add a credit card number to the account. All you need is the
         name on the account, an associated e-mail address, and the billing
         address. "

6/27    You can't put 16GB RAM in the new 13" Macbook Pro.
        Fuck you Apple!
        \_ Really?  I know they say you can't put more than 8GB in the 13"
           MBP, but I have 16GB in my 2011 13" MBP and it works perfectly.
           \_ I thought the new ones have soldier on HD and RAM just like
              the Macbook Air?
