Much love to Dear Reader Will for the Photoshop work, which I requested in this post about Dvorak’s latest wacky theory — that the Borg-Seinfeld ads are coded kinky sex ads. Or something. Dvorak looks good in leather, no?

Obama has become O-boring
What the hell happened to Mr. Barry Obama? Back in Denver, up on the stage, he was on fire like a messiah. Now he’s washed out, wan, tired — he looks like he needs Geritol. The guy starts talking these days and your eyes just glaze over. For God’s sake, man. Say something short…. Read more »
N. Korea: Kim Jong Il has "common bug"
South Korean intelligence reports that ODL (Original Dear Leader) has suffered a stroke. North Korea denies this, saying there’s “no problem,” and that ODL missed a parade because he got stuck in traffic, not because of any health problems. Pressed by an AP reporter, the spokesbot added, “The health of Kim Jong Il is a… Read more »
Apple: Still no spaceship or flying car
But Dear Leader remains alive and well (see photo above). Oh, and they’ve got some upgraded iPods and a new version of iTunes. Seriously? That’s it? I’m still trying to figure out why they held an actual event today instead of just putting out a press release. As a fellow filthy hack commented to me… Read more »
Windows Mobile defined
Windows Mobile: “The perfect blend of power, capability and instability.” So says this guy. And yes, it’s at the bottom of a post where he says he likes my Google Android item. But still. Much love, dude.
Warning: Desktop Linux is like sniffing glue. Or something.
Great comic strip here designed to keep the kids off the Linux. See here.
Dvorak says Borg Seinfeld ad is about kinky sex
I’m not making this up. See here. The churro is a phallus. The leather is a hint at S&M. The two dudes leaving the mall together — you get the idea. You know what? I’m starting to admire Dvorak. Yes, he’s totally out of his mind. Yes, he wear Depends. But he always manages to… Read more »
More griping from Apple partners?
Matt Asay picks up on the griping here with a piece titled “Disservice to partners may bite Apple.” Apparently MacUser has been tracking this too, with an article explaining that “Apple has installed a proprietary authentication chip in their portables that makes it impossible for 3rd party companies to create iPod/iPhone compatible accessories without signing an often… Read more »
More Google backlash?
Britain’s Independent takes a swing here. Short version: Google has become the kind of uber-power it used to rebel against. “Don’t be evil” is bullshit. Street View lets people see inside your house. Be afraid! Funny thing is that the problem with Google has been apparent all along, or at least since its stock offering,… Read more »
FT declares Android dead before it even ships
See here. No killer app. No consumer focus. And it’s open source rather than having a vertical stack like BlackBerry and iPhone. In other words, it’s the desktop Linux of mobile phones — a solution in search of a problem that doesn’t exist. Or, to put it another way, Android was indeed created to help… Read more »
