Roger Waters - The Wallace[^]?
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

Dammit.
I simply overread that.

I went for a psychiatric evaluation this morning.
The Psychiatrist diagnosed Bipolar Disorder.
Needless to say I was Jolly Upset.

At least you remain clothed.
Otherwise you would be a bipolar bare.

It turns out that people who have been employed by it can't type[^]. Lord, this idiot sounds like the stupidest ever person from Essex (totes circs amazeballs - thanks to Kevin Bacon for introducing me to two of those words).
This idiot is now in charge of Newsnight, which used to be a serious news programme. How long before news reports have to be delivered in The Wipeout Zone, with guests that have managed to clear the big red balls.

The Guardian takeover of the BBC is continuing at great pace. We can expect Newsnight to spend more time lying about Israel now

I never fail to be disappointed by a post in the Lounge that complains about typos, which contains no typos itself. I read this twice looking for them.

I wonder if this is the same person responsible for the scrolling headline I saw on the BBC the other night which mentioned "a woman who's body was found...".

The Beeb gets it wrong more often than you think. You'd think that when the text scrolls continuously at the bottom of the screen they'd notice typos quicker, but they don't. They're not as bad as Sky though.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Well Microsoft 1/10 for effort with the Start Button but at least you can boot to desktop, a small step in the right direction.

I rather suspect that 8.2 will bring some fairly major concessions to end users, given that some of the barriers to success were pushed, have voluntarily resigned.

The problem there being that they'll probably be replaced by uncreative stuffed suits.

Button? Wot button?
It looks like an instruction to the user to start playing with baby blocks.

That's pretty much Blamers Plan: move us all away from PC's and to Microsoft Devices.
I don't know about you, but I find coding on a tablet with a "soft" keyboard and no mouse to be strangely relaxing. Particularly when I removed C# from my Nexus 7 so I wouldn't try and do it again...

As there is a move towards Ultrabooks, a touch screen UI really does start to make sense. I've been using Ultrabooks for about a year now, and I find going back to my ordinary laptop is very frustrating.

I confess that I keep tapping my laptop screen, so a hybrid isn't a bad idea, but to get full mouse/keyboard functionality, multi-touch would have to be extended to ridiculous levels -- similarly to the problem with modern FPS games, where it takes 13 fingers to tap all the keys required (in the right order, of course) to aim and shoot a gun.
