David Gewirtz has been typing again. This time over on ZDNet. I believe ZD stands for Zero Diligence. That seems to be the tenor of most of their recent posts  – rich with opinions, completely devoid of research. Like Rip Ragged but without the disclaimer. At least I’m honest about it. David, who claims to [...]

The Financial Press is Hosed

May 26th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Android, Master Jobst Fimil, Microsoft, Netbooks, Operating Systems, Punditbots and Fundtards, iPad

First I read the Wall Street Journal this morning. They have an editorial that misstates facts and then uses those fabricated facts to create an opinion that Apple is repeating the mistakes that almost bankrupted them in 1997. Then Forbes put up another piece of historical revision, wondering if Microsoft is irrelevant. This time, it’s [...]

Light Reading

Apple is so kicking the tech-planet’s ass right now. The argument on the innertubes about the iPad’s technical this-and-that is distracting Apple’s “competition.” The argument is by the geeks, for the geeks. Let’s see if I can articulate this. 99% of the argument about the technical merits of various tablets is between people who know [...]

Really. It’s pretty grim out there if you’re a tech punditbot or fundtard. Apple went ahead and announced the iPad. It doesn’t have Flash. That’s the big frigging news. The imbeciles can’t even bitch about cut and paste on this one. Most of them have gone back to posing as 14-year old girls in IRC [...]

I’m good, for now

GoDaddy.com, which advertises its business using the most refined possible examples of skin, has taken enough of my money to assure me that my domain names are safe for 1095.75 more days. Thank the maker. … Adobe’s CTO has taken to the internet in a poorly written blog entry to announce that he’s not lazy, [...]

The iPad Sucks. (I read it on the internet. It must be true.)

January 28th, 2010 · 6 Comments · Adobe, Apple Tablet, Distant Flame Wars, Gadgetry, General Detritus, Netbooks, Political Crap, Predictions, Punditbots and Fundtards, Tablet, iPhone

There it is. It just sucks. SUCKS. There are negative reviews all over the internet since the introduction of the iPad, yesterday. I mean, to read the sniveling punditbots, this thing is just the most snot-covered, maggot-infested, totally icky piece of runny shit ever to be foisted on an unsuspecting public (leaving out a few [...]
