Analysts and rumor sites are making things worse.

Posted in Rants, Tech at 5:20 am by 37prime

As I have stated before, Tech Industry Analysts are not really using any logic and common sense as they are making up predictions. Apple this, Apple that. Intel is buying McAfee to make softwares for Auto Industry. Nokia and Windows Phone 7 will overtake Android and iPhones soon.

Seriously, any 13-year-olds can make better predictions than these overpaid Tech Industry Analysts.

Rumor sites are not making things better. Taking rumors and spinning them into reportable facts. Then tons of parrot bloggers are busy copying and pasting the same misinformation over and over.

Have I had a rant like this before? Feels like I have.

Apple has more cash than Me, Big Whoop!

Posted in Apple, Rants, Tech at 4:55 am by 37prime

The usual reposting of news can get so annoying.

So Apple has a lot of cash, then what? Apparently there’ll be thousands of individuals with blogs would repost the same sentence over and over. Some of them are wearing out the Copy & Paste key combination on their keyboard.

It is not really news that Apple has more cash than US Government.

I do not want to get political, so I stop on this subject here.

Of Lion and NDA.

Posted in Apple, Mac OS X, Rants, Tech at 3:42 pm by 37prime

Apple finally released OS X Lion on July 20th, 2011 and effectively lifted up the NDA. First of reviews were publish shortly after and these reviewers were honoring the NDA/embargo. There are some who broke the NDA/embargo, just look for the published reviews pre-dating the July 20th, 2011. Apparently getting a lot of page hit is a lot more important than writing an objective reviews.

Of Competing and Copying.

Posted in Apple, Media, News, Resources, Tech at 3:15 pm by very

Back in the Eighties there were Metallica and Megadeth. The two bands were perceived to be competing with each other. Dave Mustaine, the founder of Megadeth was a former Metallica member who also wrote majority of “Kill ‘Em All”. After being kicked out of Metallica, Mustaine formed Megadeth as a competing band. Megadeth’s first record “Killing Is My Business… And Business Is Good” sounds nothing like “Kill ‘Em All”.

Samsung might be wanting everyone to think that they are competing with Apple. Unfortunately in the eye of many, Samsung does copy Apple.

Game of the day: Jump To Conclusion, Apple Edition.

Posted in Apple, iPhone, Media, News, Rants, Tech at 4:08 am by 37prime

Once upon a time Apple filed a patent on infrared system for the iPhone that might receive commands to disable video recording on the device. Then people starts panicking and protesting Apple; on their blogs.

Pardon the profanities.

Seriously, calm the fuck down! It is a fucking patent filing.

Should RIAA and MPAA wanted this technology to be built into the phones, the patent holder can just say no.

In addition to that I would be really happy to be able to watch bands like Bad Religion and Slayer live without having 100 people right in front of me raising their phone videotaping the stage.

Go ahead, jump to your conclusion and stop buying/using any Apple products right now.

Abandon your Macs, Ed Bott says Malware on Mac OS X is on the rise.

Posted in Announcements, Apple, Mac OS X, Media, News, Rants, Resources, Security, Tech, Troubleshooting at 4:45 pm by very

Just like Michael Moore on the Republican. Just like Rush Limbaugh on the Democrats. Just Like Glen Beck on the Liberals. That’s what Ed Bott on Apple. Take what Bott says with a boulder of salt.

This is from today:

WordPress 3.1.2

Posted in Announcements, News, Resources, Security, Tech, Troubleshooting at 2:35 am by 37prime

WordPress 3.1.2 was out on Tuesday April 26th, 2011. If you are running your own WordPress installation, you should upgrade right away.

If I remembered it correctly starting with WordPress 3.2 requires PHP5 and mySQL 5.

The Paranoids and Opportunists: Apple Location History Debacle.

Posted in Apple, iPad, iPhone, News, Rants, Security, Tech at 2:44 pm by 37prime

If you are a paranoid, you should immediately abandon anything you have made by Apple. Throwaway your iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, Magic Mouse, Apple Keyboard, etc.

Since you’ve just read it on the Internet, then everything you could fear must be true. Someone just reposted the content from someone else’s site on a blog.

If you are an opportunist, this is the perfect time to bash Apple. How dare Apple become a popular brand? I use [insert a branded product here] and it is a million times better than Apple ever made.

If you are another type of an opprtunist, you should file lawsuit against Apple right now. You don’t need to have all the facts as long as you’re making headlines.

If you are a paranoid and an opprtunist, you definitely should stand on a soap box. After doing so, get yourself any attorney who would file lawsuit against Apple. You don’t need to know the fact because once you do you might not be able to sue.

Please do panic and abandon Apple.

Posted in Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod, Media, News, Rants, Resources, Security, Tech, Troubleshooting at 3:20 pm by 37prime

Since everyone on the Internet is saying that Apple is definitely tracking your iOS movement, then it must be true. To make matter worse, Senator Al Franken (D-MN) and Representative Ed Markey (D-MA) have sent queries to Steve Jobs about this issue. Adding insults to the injuries, thousands if not infinite numbers of bloggers are busy wearing out their “C” and “V” keys reposting the story over and over again. Apple must be the bad guy, right?

What are you waiting for, its time to abandon Apple. Throw away your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Buy only Android/Windows Phone 7/webOS/Blackberry/etc. that is non Apple devices. Please do panic now.

In related news, Google captured your password while taking pictures of your house. Please do panic!

Please do panic!

I need to take classes in sarcasm.

Jumping the gun is the trend.

Posted in Music, Rants, Resources, Tech at 2:23 am by 37prime

Look it’s a gun, let’s jump it.

“Oh Your God! Samsung is shipping key-loggers in their computers.”

“Apple did what? They are tracking your movement with their iOS devices. Shame on you Apple!”

“LOL at Apple, you copied Samsung!”

It’s time to tell everyone by copying and pasting the “breaking” news into the blog.

Can anyone else come up with something better?
