Christmas Gory
Paul posted a few of these a couple months ago so since I found this one, I figured I would share this one as well.

Apple Monopoly
It appears that Apple is treading in MS footprints these days by now MAKING you download iTunes just to get Quicktime installed, which is complete BULLSHIT. I HATE iTunes therefore why should I have to install it just get Quicktime? iTunes IS uninstallable but its a waste of bandwidth and time.
From what I hear, iTunes does not allow you to sync up with more than one machine… um STUPID.
Download Redchair Anapod its by far the best software on the market for any mp3 player. Better yet just stop the whole iPod conspiracy, everyone is getting them, makes me think the government has GPS tracking bugs installed in every iPod to keep track of what people are doing… think about it!!
These trendy stupid colored music boxes are really pissing me off lately.
I wish Apple would move on from the whole iAss name schema, its really annoying and pretty gay.
Let me say iHate Apple products and will gladly stay away from their pricey products, the only good thing they EVER did was incorporating FreeBSD into their OS.
Nissan to Develop Xbox 360 Car
According to Motortrend, Nissan is developing a concept car that will include an embedded Xbox 360 video game console.
“A pure, powerful sports car with motorcycle-inspired styling, the rear-wheel drive URGE features a quick, high-revving, small-displacement engine, six-speed manual gearbox, brushed aluminum-alloy wheels, color-infused aluminum body panels and a driver-oriented cockpit with an integrated Xbox 360 gaming system.”
Apparantly the car will allow people to play games like Project Gotham Racing 3 (while parked of course) on a 7-inch flat-panel display.

Crazy or cool?
Happy Holidays? Feh, say I!
Regardless of what you believe concerning the divinity of Christ, I think it’s safe to assume that he was the most influential man of all time. That being said, I think he deserves some recognition. I respect what is sacred to others and will render that respect as it is due, but I will not succumb to this sloppy and weak form of so-called multiculturalism that seeks to make me ashamed to say that it’s the birthday of Christ. A fascinating and obviously influential a man as this deserves our national recognition as much as (if not more than) George Washington, Martin Luther King Jr, and Christopher Columbus. To dilute this with some form of politically correct happy medium created by the unseen Committee For Dumbing Us Down is embarrasing and silly. So, I say to all my fellow SB’ers:
Not quite the Jetsons
I have been meaning to post about this for some time but knew I needed some free time to get all my thoughts in order, so finally here it is. We seem to be moving into a Jetsons like era with all the automated gadgets becoming more prominent everywhere we go, my place of focus is in the bathrooms. More and more places are getting the automated toilets, sinks, papertowl dispensers etc all for the common good of reducing the amount of germs spread from hand to hand.

What ever happened to Jamie Zawinski?
The guy who coded Netscape? The guy who ran the Mozilla Project? The guy who finally resigned after Netscape was bought by AOL, citing many, many reasons for doing so?
He runs the DNA Lounge in San Fran:
“But now I’ve taken my leave of that whole sick, navel-gazing mess we called the software industry. Now I’m in a more honest line of work: now I sell beer.”
God Bless You, Sir.
Kung-Fu
With us all being a fan of Bruce Lee I figured I would pass along this humorous video of the real Kung-Fu.

MS Ergo Keyboards, Old and New
Ahh, man. My trusty Microsoft Natural Keyboard Elite took a nose-dive after I made the bad decision to dump some raspberry selzer water in the lower left section of the board (insert fond college memories here – of a cat named Fig kicking a thick microbrew all over my keyboard, and running Marathon with Paul on Ye Olde Networked Apples). Since I was turned on to the split ergonomic design and the comfort of it, I’ve been reluctant to ever go back. It’s the perfect keyboard. I decided to see if MS has improved on the design…
