Holy smokes... the number of “no” answers you received :)

Steve Job’s main responsibility is to make sure Apple does well. One of the ways he went about achieving that is by persuading you to buy Apple products instead of the competition. Apple phones and tablets did not have a stylus then. Apple did not have a small tablet then. Hence he dissed them. Don’t treat everything…

In my case, it was the video card that did it :) the nVidia video card drivers, to be exact. Apparently there was a phantom account that the nVidia driver created for automatic updates that caused the problem. I nuked the registry entries and that fixed it.

I seem to be getting a lot more frequent updates from Windows 10 than once a month. Not too surprising given that it’s freshly released, but still annoying, especially with that update that put my system into a reboot loop.

Rising sea level? I have a plan...

Yeah. When the Terminators come looking, I want to be able to tell them where he can be found.

The typical Foxtrot Alpha article has a lot more behind it than an interesting photo. I’m actually surprised this is not on Sploid, which is more about eye candy.

They monitor clicks. Look at the huge number of clicks (and comments) this one is generating. As long as they’re not driving off a big number of readers, they have a huge incentive to do this often. And I guess one could argue that the tech angle is the website “Nameberry” (and speaking of stupid names...)

Not a point. 10 circles, 5 rectangles, and 7 points :)

It’s more interesting than watching TV most days. Especially when you have something inside you put in there 3 months ago and forgot about it.

No one can prove I bought it. That’s all I’ll say on the subject.

Build a wind turbine with solar panels on the blades, put it at the focal point, and call it “a pioneer in renewable energy generating buildings”.

You left out chemtrails.

Searching for “bible for robots” returned some very curious results, including a band.

Among Google hardware products, I have a Nest Protect, a 2nd generation Nexus 7, and a Nexus Galaxy. Based on that experience, I’m staying away from this.

Implication that the bible is a choose-your-own-adventure story : brilliant! Because that is how many of the more vocal seem to treat it.

Panoramio already allows you to put your photos on Google Earth, I think. As for this, it’s not a video, but a 360 degree panorama, and who knows, maybe there’s a large group of blurry deer butt aficionados. The Internet is a strange place.

Reality is over-rated.
