It always makes more sense to use someone else's money (like the credit card company's) than your own if you're not paying interest. Like Mr. Snake said, if you pay off your balance every month, you're not paying any interest. The money that you would have spent throughout the month is sitting in a bank account…

Sorry if I sounded aggressive, that was not my intent. I should probably use more emoticons.

I totally agree with your assessment of the iPhone 5. I am often asked what the differences are between the iPhone 5 and 4s, and there is never any one change that jumps out. Everything is a little better. The screen is a little bigger, it's a little thiner, a little lighter, a little faster, etc. It was…

Sure, but every word has some type of association, whether negative or positive. Many decades ago many people associated "oriental" with "exotic", but is it reasonable to believe that many people today don't make the same associations with "Asian"? To me it seems like we are constantly cycling out words just for the…

NFC and wireless charging are nothing more than parlor tricks with limited user benefit (much like Siri) at this point.

Personally, I like Google's approach. Throw a bunch of shit against a wall and see what sticks. If they hadn't had so many "failed" products, they may never have tried and created some of their best. This is also why Prince is so great. We probably would have never gotten "I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man"…

Are you kidding me? The article doesn't say "liquid crystal display", it sayd "LCD", and I'm betting you, and everyone else read that as "el see dee". Therefore, "an LCD" is absolutely correct. I can't believe people are actually arguing this point. I am saddened for my country.

Yeah, I know.

I'm not sure what you're saying. The link you provided is saying the same thing I said. Not sure how that might help.

But nobody does that. I read "el see dee", not "liquid crystal display"

Ugh... an LCD, not "a" LCD. Sorry, but that's just annoying.

Dude! I'm not angry, we're having a discussion, no big deal!

Gotcha, I though you meant you got an iPhone 5. I still don't know what information everyone is using to determine that the $19 lightening cable is overpriced. Using the traditional measurements, it's priced just right:

You got a free iPhone 5 and you're complaining about a $19 cable? Wow, you must be white.

While I agree that the Mini is did miss the mark on price, to compare the model closest to $600 with the Kindle Fire or Nexus 7 is a bit unfair.

Not really the same at all. How is calling someone oriental any different than calling someone a southerner?

Wow, that's quite a quote from General Westmoreland! He must have been a blast at parties.

I have a serious question since you brought up racism. Why is it not okay to call an Asian person "Oriental"? I've never understood why the term is considered offensive.

"or charging $40+ for simple cables and adapters"

No, I'm not. I just think it's fucking retarded that people who can afford to buy a cell phone that will cost them a minimum of $2400 over a two year contract are bitching about an optional add-on item that costs $19.00. The phone comes with a cable, use that one if you can't afford two.
