You realize that your average Joe who pirates ebooks to save $10 has no idea what you're talking about, right?

Geez, by now I'd think there was a list of the things that can't spy on me. I think my dick is used as a periscope to spy on me by my ass hole.

Prior to Kinja, I headed the trollpatrol team for Jezebel, as many people here know. We dealt with rape gifs, violent pornography, racism, and harassment regularly, but there was a system in place with which to have it reported and dealt with. Banning didn't usually result in the same person immediately making a new

I just want to write dude, not dismiss bloody rape gif trolls every day. It is the worst part of our jobs to hear from commenters that they can't discuss, say, a teen girl being great at Little League without some person boasting a burner account using the collective comment thread as a chance to harass people.

It honestly breaks my heart a little bit that this post even needs to exist — but the manner in which this has been handled (or not handled, really) by HQ is pathetic. Not reporting on it feels hypocritical, so here we are.

What bothers me about this is that we don't record IP addresses so as to protect these burner accounts for people who might want to tip us anonymously about a story. So the company is seemingly placing a priority on making these hypothetical tipsters feel safe over the safety of the actual real live women who write

The last thing I want to do is give this giant and troubling waste of our goddamn time the acknowledgment that is clearly so desperately craved. But the fact that I must suppress my pride and bring attention to this in a plea for support from my own employer makes it all the more ridiculous.

We can just set it up that you ask for cash via cell phone, and then when you get to the ATM you type in a randomly generated code your cell phone provides you and you extract that cash that way. A little like what big corporations are doing with their printing. You print from your desk and then you can walk up to it

No, this is a pretty clear and good choice for big corporate buyers. In the office there is no place for Win 8. Not even 8.1. You want productivity? Then don't change a damn thing while they work, even if all your employees at accounting are IT geniuses they still won't be as good when faced with a new system that

Apparently when the SNES came out, parents were pissed that Nintendo was "obsoleting" their NESes and making them buy a new box for their dumb kids to play. I the same logic seems to apply here.

They should have talked to Amazon.

"Traffic jams gone". I doubt it. You're not decreasing the volume of cars on the road.

Many, many, many of us have the $$$ and don't care. $400 for a device that my wife will spend thousands of hours using at home and work is nothing.

Don't forget "actually shipping a ton of products to success"
