Didn't know they made brown jello.

You guys keep your beliefs, I'll keep mine:

General testing wouldn't predict specific competencies.

i wish i thought this nonsensical rant made me think you were cooler, but alas - it does not.

I'm pretty sure the BSOD was designed to activate just as you're about to save document you have been working on for the last couple of hours.

Having red hair doesn't negatively impact your quality of life. Having a disability does.

I cannot agree more. The Surface and Surface Pro are both incredible devices. Where they fit functionally is somewhere between my MBA and my iPad Mini. I would love to have one but a Surface (in either form) is a poor replacement for both my tablet and my laptop. It does both better than anything else that does both,…

My girlfriend bought the Surface RT for school without consulting me first (I am a network engineer and all around geek!) IMHO the Surface RT is crap, but basically just due to app support. There was no native spotify app, in fact I had to do a registry hack to get the Spotify web player working on it which is…

The challenge was to extract the fingerprint data off the A7 processor and use that data to print a usable fingerprint. This was to refute/dispute the claims from Apple that the "fingerprint" data is securely stored on the chip and not uploaded anywhere else.

How the hell do you get a photo of someone's fingerprint at 2400dpi?

Yes if someone doesn't agree with you guys they are fanboys and lying. You people need to let it go and realize that what works for you may not work for others. Trying to enforce your opinion (Usually while calling them names) only makes you look like children.

I am guessing it boils down to "less fucking stolen iPhone paperwork thank fucking god."

I think that this cycle of offensive words exists, but the in the process of recognizing the need to "wash" the word from our vocabulary, our society as a whole raises awareness and a new level of empathy for the people we are adjusting our words for.

So each time we "wash" our vocabulary, we are teaching ourselves,…

Okay, I give it to you that she was offended. I was wrong on that. However, that still doesn't change the fact that KLanD's comments were inappropriate.

"I'm always amazed at.....don't affect them in any way."

As I've said, actions without malice can still cause harm, and thinking that they have no impact (due to the…

Do you not see the problem here? KLanD was assuming that Loates was exhibiting behaviors that he loathed, which was to take offense and create noise for something not aimed at her,while disregarding the possibility that she could have lodged the complaint because she was concerned about people getting hurt (whether…

And what if her sibling was the one that picked up the cap? What if, despite her condition, she could understand and feel pain from the phrase "You Retard" which is commonly used to insult and bring hurt to people instead of just 'pointing out the truth' in a neutral fashion? How did you know that Blake Loates was…

Replace retard with any other derogatory term. Still think it is harmless? (Try replacing that word with idiot, mongoloid, nigger, spic, wop, dago, or pretty much any other derogatory term and you can see why it is offensive) While I am sure this was an accident, they probably ran a few test bottles where the operator…

Wow, it's incredible the amount of people in the comments who are totally cool with this. It shows how mental issues and the mentally disabled are topics that really need more attention in America. When educated people (which is what a tech blog's reader base is assumed to be) believe this way you know the issue is…

Pejoratives and business don't mix well, under normal circumstances. It's a little dismaying that previous posters don't seem to have a problem with this. Or maybe not.
