Pretty sure this is the dumbest dog-related idea I’ve ever seen. Shame on all of these people. Every one of them.

T-Mobile: we probably lost all your Sidekick data
Hooray for the cloud (and Microsoft, who bought Danger, the Sidekick’s maker, a couple years ago). I’d love to hear an explanation of why their syncing system works like this: if you power down your device during this outage, all your data disappears.

”Maybe instead of vilifying a comedian for entertaining us we should use this opportunity to rid ourselves once and for all of this misguided, goodthink-enforcing policy that serves no purpose but to instill in us a debilitating fear of being who we are — flaws, fucks, and all.
The Daily What on Jenny Slate’s use of “fuck” during her first appearance as a new SNL cast member.

Ten Grand is Buried Here | Microsoft
From Microsoft’s ridiculously preposterous and short-sighted contest to try and bribe users into using IE8:
Tell your friends. It’s not as stupid as it sounds.

Dear Amazon: Please learn the value of clean URLs
What in sam hell is this?
http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-DX-Amazons-Wireless-Generation/dp/B0015TCML0/ref=amb_link_84277971_2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=gateway-center-column&pf_rd_r=1PHH0HAQCXDRW67X67SK&

Know what a great product URL is?
Informative, short, and gorgeous. I know exactly where I’m going and what product I will see on that page. I bet the URL is short enough even for Twitter—the 21st century definition of brevity—to refrain from automatically shortening it.
Even amazon.com/kindledx balloons into http://www.amazon.com/kindle-store-ebooks-newspapers-blogs/b?node=133141011. Ugh.

Fake People Tell Fake Stories About The Threat Of Gay Marriage - Boing Boing
A storm is coming. A freedom-destroying storm that will be far, far worse than any other storm we have ever experienced. At least, like, five times worse than Katrina or the freedom-annihilating storm of the Patriot Act.
A storm so bad that paid actors need to warn you about it.

The “RIAA of the newspaper industry,” indeed. This is just dumbfounding. Ars has more about the AP’s new campaign against Internet “misappropriation.”
