I am in favour of NO distractions whatsoever in cars. NO makeup, no cell phones, no televisions, no leaning out the passenger side window to snipe at other drivers with a handgun. ALL pose a devastating risk to life - both you and more importantly the other drivers on the road. Freedoms to do what you want halts the moment you gain the power to inadvertently kill or maim someone instantly.

So even though you smashed a cyclist and permanently mangled his leg so that it takes eight pins in his knee to recover, at least you and your one true love can share JUST THE RIGHT GORDITO.

HOLY FUCKING GODDAMN. This thread is a thousand kinds of retarded.

There are so many things wrong with that sentence. The most glaring being: Nobody needs Twitter, therefore to have a Twitter Phone Client is like... Useless times eighteen.

Because that's the only possible origin that would explain this comic.

That damn baby going off the balcony.

What's white then brown then red all over?

Baby in the microwave.

The books were paced so well that I really hope the scriptwriter and director are up to the task.

So she's friends with that idiotic Alabama Slamma juvenile Drama, and she's out and about on the New York scene calling everyone ELSE pretentious and foppish? That pompous little freak sounds like he would quote Gaddis at every possible opportunity, if it would serve to coat his chocolatey envelope of WunderKinder ness.

Fucking idiotic. Wow. So people are pretentious. YES. They are perhaps human? They are perhaps full of themselves like everyone else? They are perhaps still bound in skin and stitched onto bones like all the rest of the spinning world of mortality. THe only reason you're dissapointed is because you are a CHILD.

I don't understand how people can exist in such a dishonest way and still call themselves writers. Isn't it the responsibility of a writer to be honest?

And this is WHY you are a child. The job of a writer is not honesty. This is what you think when you yourself are a milk-skinned baby, stuffed full of manichean ideals, and noticing that your pretty face gets you as far in life as everyone else with a pretty, milk-skinned face. When you yourself have probably fucked an author or two looking for enlightenment, but finding only pubes where you thought a mandala would be lodged.

The job of a writer is to write. He pastes together an experience out of language, like any other craftsman. The same as a plumber pastes together the water system of a house. If you think the purpose of asking questions and communicating experience is to get "answers" to "questions", well you're bound for a life of sore disappointment. Just ask about four thousand years of recorded philosophy and poetry what they think of the "answers" to great questions.

It is the job of a GOOD person to be honest. To be self-aware. To deliberately explore the fault lines of your character and try desperately to not inflict suffering in this strange, ghost-ridden world of worked and fabricated objects. Sometimes the jobs of WRITER and GOOD PERSON coincide. But more often they don't. There are way more WRITERS in the world than there are GOOD PEOPLE.

@Alex Blagg: My god. An epic slap fight.

Although I think I'll hold off until more of this generation of notebooks is out. Thanks Giz. You rule.

"PC LOAD LETTER?! What the fuck does that mean!"

But this is just getting crazy. Now the Giz devotion to the iPhone is actually getting to the point of them becoming effectively an Apple iPhone advertisement site.

It's pretty underminer-y actually.

Which is quite ironic considering her affection for apartheid-era Africa.

there didn't seem to be too much interest in the 400 quid ebook reader; what was striking, though, was that there didn't seem to be too much interest in the four quid books, either.

Attempting to sell people something for £400 that merely enables them to read something that they won't buy at one hundredth of the price seems to me a thankless task.

This is simply a ridiculous product. I cannot imagine any actual reader, any student of literature, who would actually want this.

If the 2nd gen were 40 or 50 bucks then maybe... MAYBE.

Although I'm still impressed by the pricetag, with no optical drive it's just too stupid and impractical for me.

It's somehow appreciated in some way. Oh looks, something shiny!!! eeeee! eeeeeeeeeeeeee!eeeeeeeee

The Hulu website states that their video library can only be streamed within the US. So wherever you are in Canada, you've obvs got some sort of US network connection.

It's the same shit that shut down pandora.

You're playing TETRIS on your PHONE. It's ALREADY a waste of battery.

Those are pretty much my primary qualifications for a laptop. I hate the overhot laptops. You can almost hear them "ping" when they cool down.

Fuckers.

Thanks for making this impossible to view in Canada, you joymaligning assholes.

I need a lappy for heading overseas, and methinks this might be it. Well, this or a macbook.

Fuck.

BazILLIONS OF DOLLARS!

I wonder why this hasn't happened?
