@pugz77: I've not read the vast majority of what was published, and never having served don't know that I would recognize it if I saw it. Can you please point out a few items that put soldier's lives at risk? I'm not stating an opinion. Just genuine curiosity which may turn into an opinion :)

@2matrix: I saw very little commentary aside from calling it "depressing." I saw a tech blog reporting on an information graphic made possible through networked communication and easily-accessible geographic information systems which would not have been possible 10 years ago ad would not be possible today but for…

The claptrap was easily the most annoying video game character in recent memory. The only thing that could have made Borderlands better would have been the ability to brutally skullfuck that annoying piece of crap into oblivion.

On the plane yesterday I overheard a pseudo-geek (in that he was overweight and spoke in a loud, nasally voice) explaining that the the "Android" is the "Google Phone" and is only available from Sprint. But everybody started calling it the Droid because it sounded cooler. And then "they" had to pay Steven Spielberg…

@CIM: That's asinine. Imagine that as of this moment, your PC no longer functions properly from 11PM to 6AM. If Dell turned around and told you, "Hey, don't use it during that time or buy a clock that only shows 7AM to 10:59PM," would you be defending it? Why is it that you feel that it's OK for a very expensive…

@LoganR: That's really beside the point. The case is not free. Based on your comment I assume that you agree that the phone is faulty without a case (in addition to it being foolish to not use a case on a fragile and expensive device). That being said, why should I have to spend another $30 to make functional a…

@pixelpushing: Denial and minimizing the valid concerns of your core customers is certainly a fine start!

@mrchomicz: You know, that's funny. Because when I say the graphic I said to myself, "Self, now all of those people who just can't grasp the nature of the issue will surely see how simple and straightforward it really is. And what a lovely, informative illustration." I suspect there are those who simply lack the…

@subtlescalpel: Of course he minces words. If this were not the case he would recognize the problem and indicate that there was a fix in the works and possibly provide some high-level detail of that fix. Cryptic statements about "staying tuned" and denying the problem is precisely what mincing words is. I have no…

@fid: I'm not sure that's a fair comment. I haven't heard of many failures over the last two years or so. As far as I know, the failure rate on new units is comparable to PS3 and Wii, while older units have now been prepared properly. My current 360 (the fourth replacement of the original) has been up and running for…

@Lawnmower16: Always....? Nudge nude, wink wink. Say no more!
