Cat CookiesSpeaking of cookies and confusers:

It’s no secret I recently acquired a new confuser — a Samsung Series 7 64-bit all-in-one with a 27″ screen for usage at my wifely wife’s home in Ghetto Centrale, or what I typify as Baja Mack Road.

Love the screen, absolutely despise the OS, which is Windows 8.

As opposed to something that is even remotely intuitive, Windows 8 is roughly as intuitive as a woman’s brain or her ability to apply logic.  Makes me wonder: Windows 8 developers were only female?  So, apparently.

I know the ancestry of Windows 8, as does anyone with an iPad, iPod, iPOS, iPhone, iCarp, iPiss or any manner or make of “smart phone” or tablet.  It’s an attempt to tap into the “touch” market without any regard for a computer user’s actual wish to touch a confuser screen.

Whereas, with something you hold in either a single hand — witness a smart phone — or something you may hold in two hands — as a tablet — the Apple touch system or Android system makes good use of your thumbs or the swish of a fingertip, in terms of convenience.

To think that idea would translate well into a full-sized confuser setup on, say, a huge computer screen such as mine is quite unfortunate, as to border on moronic.  I do NOT want to reach over to constantly touch my confuser screen.  Because that means I have to CLEAN my screen almost constantly, as I do not care for swirls and swishes on the screen.

Okay, let me unpack: it IS moronic.  I do NOT wish to constantly touch my large screen to get somewhere.  I do NOT want to smear my screen or constantly bend to enable said touching.  Sometimes I care to lounge in my chair with my arm resting on an extended desk shelf, hand resting on mouse.  Sometimes I wish to have the keyboard on my lap whilst I likewise kick back in said Herman Miller Aeron chair.

Further, Windows 8 is the Software Nazi.  It is telling me that I am only have a certain few number of days left on pieces of software I have owned for years, and that I must re-register these pieces of software or purchase them again in their entirety.  To that I reply, kindly, to Microsoft: fuck you.  I’m not doing that nor am I going to accept your totalic rule.  I’ll rip you out by your oppressive guts before I submit.

Windows 8 is nothing like Windows 7, to the point that I am seriously considering ripping Windows 8 right out of my confuser and starting entirely over, with Windows 7 Professional in 64-bit.

That said, anyone else have any experiences with Windows 8 because, as far as I’m concerned, I can’t help but wish hate, discontent and evil things upon Microsoft.  Not to mention a massive plummet in earnings.

Assad tells Obama to stop arming rebels, or no deal

Posted on by

Cartoonist Gary Varvel: Obama, Putin and the Nobel Peace PrizeFirst, Vladimir Putin is dictating American foreign policy to Mr Obama, after having publicly pantsed, spanked and ______ Mr Obama in the global press.  This what should happen:

Now, Syrian President Assad is dictating terms to Mr Obama.  From the WashingtonExaminer.com:

By JOEL GEHRKE | SEPTEMBER 12, 2013 AT 5:24 PM

President Obama must promise not to arm rebel forces or Syrian dictator Bashar Assad will not hand over his chemical weapons, the embattled leader told a Russian state media outlet today while demanding that Israel also surrender its nuclear arsenal.

“When we see that the U.S. genuinely stands for stability in our region, stops threatening us with military intervention and stops supplying terrorists with weapons, then we will consider it possible to finalize all necessary procedures and they will become legitimate and acceptable for Syria,” Assad told RIA News.

Is there no end to the incompetence and shameful behavior?

Bugged: Obama’s Roach Problem

Posted on by

White House InfestationFrom NationalJournal.com:

As in cockroaches. But vermin is nothing new in a building that is 213 years old–and roaches aren’t the worst of it.

By

September 13, 2013 | 5:27 p.m.

It was just a cockroach, one of millions around the world. But this one had a White House address, making it pretty special. Well, special at least to the reporters with workspace in the often-troubled basement of the press offices. Already this year, they have been treated to flooding, soaked carpet, mousetraps and the wondrous odors of mold.

“It was the size of a small drone,” said Martha Joynt Kumar, professor of political science at Towson University, who led the effort Wednesday to capture the bug. Kumar, who has worked out of the press offices studying the president-press relationship for almost four decades, wanted to turn it into the General Services Administration, the agency responsible for the building. “I wanted to bag it so that the GSA would know what kind of issue we had,” she said. “I chased it. But it got away behind some wiring.”

Imagine that.

The White House full of vermin.

Confirmed: no, the American Media Maggots are NOT biased

Richard Stengel leaving Time for State Department

By JOE POMPEO and DYLAN BYERS | 9/12/13 4:20 PM EDT

Richard Stengel, the top editor of Time magazine for the past seven years, is planning to step down as managing editor for a new job at the U.S. Department of State, sources familiar with the situation tell POLITICO and Capital New York.

As was said earlier, a few years ago, “why don’t you (the media) just go work for the Obama Administration?”

In this case, they literally are.

Nah.  The American Media Maggots aren’t biased.
