Here's yet another example of our misguided and utterly useless focus on the quaint notion of "privacy." Privacy, always of questionable value, is now as obsolete as whale-boned corsets, and like such lingerie, is at this late date appropriately of…

Natural selection invented "wiggle this and maybe it'll come loose." Can we file a belated patent and work up some kind of class action suit against pretty much everyone, everywhere? It'd be easy enough to demonstrate that nature's invention of th…

And pay no attention to the 15-year-old girl whose hands have been ruined using a toxic chemical to clean your new iPad's pristine little screen? After all, it's not like any of us will ever have to see the useless claws she'll have for hands by th…

Even though it's a ridiculous issue involving a crap company and a heinous dictatorship, it's still kind of fun watching an American corporation deal with a government that can't be acquired quite as easily as buying US Congressmen a six-pack at a t…

Those who can bake pies do and those who love to eat it, should, but what of those who exist only to slice it, an activity that's ultimately antithetical to either creating or celebrating anything at all? This sort of endlessly protracted waste is …

It's good to know the delectable actor in the tight shirt who is paid by ABC, Disney, and the Jobs estate (not necessarily in that order) is finally going to tell us what's really going down in China. My trembling anticipation of the Whole Truth is…

Like celebrity journalism, the Apple rumor mill is essentially a religious preoccupation. The rumors themselves, much like Gods and famous people, are as purposefully, stupefyingly dull as the phenomenon itself is fascinating. All cults have at th…
