I wish they’d do this in Shanghai. This year, all the young men are wearing grey sweatpants everywhere, like to the office. I’d be curious to know if Chinese women find this as distasteful as I do.

This didn’t come off as desperate or pathetic at all.

I haven’t seen Microsoft address that directly. It would be pretty crazy if they downgraded you, though. I have a Surface Pro 3, so it has Pro on it. If they downgrade it, I’d be stunned. People who assemble their own machines and put Pro on it generally have a good reason for doing so, and taking it away from them…

I would never wear sandals of any sort unless I’m at some sort of beach. Then again, I live someplace where it hovers between 95-100 for three solid months and refuse to wear shorts, so clearly comfort is not high on my list of concerns.

I’m feeling fairly confident that 7 & 8 users will literally be getting free Windows 10. I think the language in the upgrade reservation widget is pretty unambiguous (http://gizmodo.com/why-yes-that-c…). If they pulled a bait and switch on this one, I think the backlash against Microsoft would make the always on XBox…

Well, I don’t think that everything would have to be open sourced. Look at Google Android, for example. Yes, AOSP must remain completely open source, but Google has been just fine about pulling stuff out of the core and throwing things into Google Play Services. Yes, old versions of software still exist in AOSP, but…

Hey, Axetwin! Nope, there will be no yearly licensing fee. You have one year to migrate your Windows 7/8 installations over to 10. If you do so within that year, you’re paying nothing. If you wait, you’re going to have to pay retail (which is $109 for Home and $149 for Pro, I think).

His speech was completely unbelievable. I like you, Hannibaldirum!

Ugh, calling it “making love” just makes me want to drink more.

You have a very strange understanding of what “Hollywood girls” look like.

They’re really feeding him some tomato cans. However, were I a tomato can, I’m pretty sure I’d want nothing to do with Dong.

Donkey meat really isn’t half bad. It’s fairly common in Sichuan food.

I have to assume there are at least 100 fanatics with money who would want one. And hey, it does look pretty nice for something that no one actually needs, and you could open up the bidding to people worldwide. Attack on Titan is popular in a lot of places. I’m thinking 20% would be easily achievable, and I’d guess…

Totally! But I’d definitely have to as there’s no way I could afford the insurance, and the tax burden would be terrifying.

Well, if I were in Japan, I’d try to win one and flip it. With only twenty being made, I bet I could clear a decent profit.

The highlighted section is alarming, but nowhere near as the alarming as the part that reads “coated in gorgeous eye candy,” which is a blatant lie wrapped in a horrible pun.

I’m a bit unclear about why this guy is more deserving of a liver donation than the other people on the waiting list.

I don’t know. $1 is significantly more than I’d pay for the rights to watch Knicks games.

I find the Asian character part to be nowhere near as wretched as comic sans (but still fairly bad!). The Roman font on the other hand is every bit as terrible.
