I edited this piece on Slacktory and I think it's telling and hilarious, but I'd still gladly use OKCupid if I were single. It's only become a frequent target of parody because it's so mainstream now. If we posted terrible tweets, we wouldn't be saying that Twitter is worthless. Same goes here.

Nope, Buckyballs are a specific brand as well, and NeoCube is a competitor.

Haw-haw, you quoted a line from the video in the post!

As I recall, you always have to re-enter your PIN.

Mat, maybe you should try not spending a shitload of time combing through Kickstarter projects. That's what most of us tried and it seems to work well.

I regret not crafting that joke better — it's supposed to be that Siri likes dark classical music and Nick hates it, preferring shit like the "Space Jam" theme.

Why not link to the similar rant at Kotaku? [kotaku.com]

Well, a period can either mean "the end", or it can mean "the ejection of something that failed to become human".

Oh my god, it's like that one time I almost went out with a TECH BLOGGER but thank god I googled her first and was like "Ew gross nerrrrrrrrrd!"

Between this headline and "clickety click" on your US Debt post, I'm falling in love with your phraseology.

Hey, thanks for sharing this! It's from the blog I edit: [slacktory.com] Can you add a link please?

Yeah, Ritual is insane on weekdays. But have you tried Mission Creek? Does Four Barrel have any wifi? And might it be cheaper to get a $60/month MiFi account, pack a lunch and use the library all day? SF Library's main branch is pretty much built for this kind of use. I used it as my office for a few weeks in 2008.

They can give you two bucks for it.

Glad I decided to vote absentee.

@DrewTX: Yep, it's anti-social. And I like that there are a few jerks out there screwing around with everyone. So long as they're not interfering with emergency communication...
