This creative writing essay is hereby awarded a B+... and numerous web views no doubt. A better choice of subject could have yielded an A, but also fewer views... and we know what matters most.

@winshape: For just a few $$ more, the Trent IMP500 offers about 2-1/2 times the capacity (5000 mAh versus 1800 mAh). I've used one for over a year and am very happy. Over 75% are 5-star reviews on amazon.

@MasterYong: Try a movie you've copied yourself with a known-efficient codec and check your display's brightness setting (a huge factor in battery life).

Why am I not surprised?

Intel == Lame

@MasterYong: enough for just one movie? Bullocks. I strongly beg to differ. Pretty please, oh, please, oh, please?

What was accidental about the discovery of bakelite?

@Deckard: Dr. Eldon Tyrell said that was no accident.

Nothing involving Google is free.

@abates25: Is that "sustainable" as in "rain forests are renewable" or as in "everybody needs to earn a buck to eat"?

@geekymitch: And they weigh almost an ounce!

@noamjamski: I guess if the purpose isn't strictly parody, we must be sure to choose an alias that would never be used as a real name. Moon Unit, for instance.

Fortunately, the original Voyager's Golden Records don't have that creepy background noise, just the voice of humanity and Gaia's sounds.

Apple has high ethical standards to uphold. For middle managers, they draw the line at $1M.

@Robert Anhalt: Bad businessmen copy; great businessmen steal.

@dallasmay: What does any of that matter? For instance, "open source" doesn't mean royalty-free or unconditional right-to-use.

@jiveabillion: It's Oracle's prerogative to file suit when they want, when they're ready. Did you think there was a grace period on intellectual property infringement or something?

@thevpuli: What misconception leads you to believe Oracle/Sun had to file suit earlier? Oracle can take its sweet time to investigate the situation and weigh its options before filing suit.

@Cyb3r_Punk: Most of them look like you already punched them in the face!

I didn't realize photoshop could be used to morph faces in videos. Thanks, giz!
