Re: 150 miles later, these pilots are looking kind of silly

The Dharmatist — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 17:01:53 -0000

Which policy were they heatedly discussing, the one that forbids pilots from flying drunk?

Re: Hulu’s bending to broadcasters, probably charging soon. NOOO!

These shows are free over the airwaves? Then what the hell am I paying $50/month for? If people want to continue getting stuff for free, they need to be willing to do stuff for free themselves. Like their jobs. Socialize everything and we'll all be just fine.

Re: It only took twenty years for near-complete cell phone adoption

The Dharmatist — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 13:32:43 -0000

I don't have one. I can't afford it. Plus where I live, service is absolutely horrible. When I did have one, I was in roam at all times and had to keep my phone sitting on the window sill in order to receive text messages. (I'm also amongst the 30% of my state's population that can't get broadband Internet (other than satellite.))

Re: New York: Please stop making examples of celebrities like Lil Wayne

The Dharmatist — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 13:21:58 -0000

How many times will Lil' Wayne have to mutter "No Homo" to make it through a year in jail? Better yet, can he say it with a dick in his mouth?

Re: Rush Limbaugh proves (again) why he’s not worthy of NFL ownership

The Dharmatist — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 21:16:07 -0000

Since when did one need to be a decent human being to own an NFL team? Out of 32 teams, I'd be shocked if more than 2 were owned by someone who wasn't a piece of shit. For once, though, I don't see anything wrong with what Limbaugh is saying. Humanity does need to be wiped off the planet for the sake of all that is worthwhile and someone needs to kill themselves to set a good example for everyone else.

Re: If anyone believed “RIP Kanye West” was true, pity on you fools

The Dharmatist — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 21:10:55 -0000

I wouldn't be at all surprised if Kanye wasn't the one who put 4chan up to it to begin with, though I doubt he'd be able to stand being Anonymous. The important question has not even been asked, though. Do gay fish go to heaven?

Re: With net neutrality, could tiered internet make a comeback?

In most cases, the water company doesn't lease that water from another company, either. What we need is a nationalization of ISPs. Web 2.0 was the social Internet, Web 3.0 can be the socialist Internet.

Re: 30-inch monitors are cool; 27-inch iMacs are cheaper and better

The Dharmatist — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 23:14:20 -0000

Hrm. My 42" HD and the laptop I have hooked up to it cost a grand total of about $700. Throw in the XBox 360 that's also hooked up to it for total of $1000. What do I get for the additional $699, a selection of colors?

Re: No God/Know Peace: Here’s the day’s faith-filled Twitter topic

The Dharmatist — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 16:48:20 -0000

Of course, being Twitter, it's not that "No God" is trending more than "Know God", it's that fucktards are spelling "Know" wrong.

Re: Steve McNair, a mistress, and a series of desperate texts

The Dharmatist — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 11:14:44 -0000

Hopefully this is a trend that will catch on with the mistresses of current athletes, I elect Kobe Bryant to be the one to make it cool.

Re: Louis Farrakhan is a big stupid fearmongering idiot

While he's wrong about the vaccine, he is correct that the Earth is over capacity and that the problem needs to be dealt with. Disease is too arbitrary, though, I suggest we rank people by a combination of usefulness as a human being and taste in music and kill the lower 50% for starters.

Re: Now that the PS3 doesn’t cost a month’s rent, people are buying it

The Dharmatist — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 00:40:18 -0000

Sony keeps insisting that the PS3 isn't just a game console, that it's an entertainment system or a lifestyle device or whatever they imagine it to be. So shouldn't their sales be compared to Blu-Ray players or PCs or some such? As for the video game wars, console sales are pretty meaningless in and of themselves. Let's see which system sells the most copies of Final Fantasy XIII when it comes out next Spring.

Re: “Oh lord.” Twitter’s gotten through five billion tweets.

The Dharmatist — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 00:34:14 -0000

Five billion tweets and I bet less than ten million of them were spelled correctly.

Re: The White House is cautiously optimistic on an Afghan runoff

The Dharmatist — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 00:30:21 -0000

It's a bit ironic that the U.S. dictating how another country should run it's elections could be considered a great stride for democracy.

Re: Our world is full of godless heathens. Let’s be honest about it.

The Dharmatist — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 00:00:33 -0000

It's all good and well to say that society is closer than ever to becoming "godless" but we're still a very long way from actually getting there. Think of it in terms of one simple question... Would Obama have been elected had he been an atheist? No chance in hell.
