Gizmodo-B-Gone

I particularly identified with the statement: <"............."When did journalists become the protectors of corporations?" editor Brian Lam asked, arguing that too many technology journalists spend their time in the pocket of corporations..........">

Now what we need next, is one of these tiny remote controllers, to switch off or jam cellphones.

The rudeness of Cellphone shouters, and texting operators, is really far past the bad manners stage, and into the stage of being entirely selfish, rude, horrible and dangerous.

Kind Regards....

Hi Sparks: If you can't find a ready made cell phone frequency jammer build you own.

Shouldn't be too much trouble to put one in an old CP and shut up all the loudmouths and key tappers within ear shot!

Phone signal jammers do exist but they are illegal (I thought).

I remember reading about it in countries where they were not so strict with them and you could walk into a restaurant or hotel, and suddenly your signal was gone. I would love one of those for cinemas, restaurants or just in the car driving past assholes that think they can be on the phone and drive at the same time.

I fully agree with the rubbish journalists. I have commented on that before and absolutely hate the current trend of fast buck highlight journalism without as much as showing a glimmer of knowledge on the subject.

"Phone signal jammers do exist but they are illegal (I thought)."

Had occassion to work with the Criminal Courts for a few years. The judges had a rule:
Turn off all cell phones. If yours rings the bailiff will confiscate it and you will NOT get it back.

"I fully agree with the [comment re:] rubbish journalists. I have commented on that before and absolutely hate the current trend of fast buck highlight journalism without as much as showing a glimmer of knowledge on the subject."

Deliberately misinformed? and they can't distinguish between ACcept and EXcept and other homonyms!

I am sure they know the difference between accept and except when they go to the bank to cash their pay cheque as I am also sure they do get big ones for producing this kind of shit.

Deliberately misinformed is somewhat out of context I think. Ignorance is not a good excuse for anything. If you want to know you can find out, all you need is the will.

I hate homonyms as well, they are just not natural

Only kidding.

Beep beep beebeeep beep News Flash! Beep beep beeep beeepbeeep (old ticker news sound beeping)

Flash - dateline January 2008. Cyberspace.

Recently reported that 2 contributors to engineering forum openly berating parts of speech that sound similar but act very, very different. One member claims that journalists are insensitive to these 'homos'. After brief discourse, the second contributor; an Englishman named only Case, openly proclaims that, and I quote, "I hate homos as well,they just aren't natural." There it is Cyberworld. In black and white for all to see. 100% of the 2 engineers engaged in this discussion dislike homos. And 50% hate them.

More news at nine. Our lead story, "Government does not care about global warming! Recently 3 trillion tons of arctic ice falls into ocean and no one uses to cool off the warming world!"

I want one!!!!
