You made me feel bad.
I'm leaving Slashdot and never coming back.
At least I'm leaving with excellent karma.

"The global output of heat-trapping carbon dioxide jumped by the biggest amount on record in 2010, the U.S. Department of Energy calculated.
No other pollutant is being discussed.

Yeah every time I get too much carbon dioxide in my lungs, I start to feel like my chest is going to explode.
Then I exhale.

No more 3 hour drives to the coast! I'll be enjoying my beachfront property and palm trees right here at home before too long!

No actually it was the difference between "they're" and "their".

Thanks, my pedantic friend. I award you 3 internets for catching my lackadaisical usage of grammar and relying to heavily on Chromium's spellcheck.
That's what you get for using Chromium instead of Internet Explorer, you unwashed hippy.

From the article: Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL) places the blame on these European companies for the alligator clips being applied to dissidents, which is a bad thing. But if, instead of dissidents, the alligator clips were being applied to terrorists in, say, Iraq or Afghanistan, well then that would be a good thing I guess, and Sen. Kirk would be giving the credit instead of placing the blame.

Hey, we're not in business to preserve human rights. In fact, we would be legally liable for failing our fiduciary duty to our shareholders if we failed to pursue the lucrative oppression-assistance market. We were incorporated to pursue profit and, by golly, that's what we're doing!

No, they aren't. In fact, the final hardware for the 4S was the first engineering prototype, and the iOS5 golden master was the first version that even compiled.
Apple can get away with this because they know that they'll sell as many iPhones as they can make, no matter how crappy they are.

No, just carry an extra iPhone or two, and switch when the battery is drained.
