shalalala··on Needing the best in the business – nyhacker (New York, NY)
This smells fishy. First off, the poster makes basic grammar errors. Next, misspelling. I'm willing to read their post, but without proof, I'm guessing this is the ol' PICNIC.

Problem In Chair Not In Computer.

shalalala··on 16GB IPhone 4S with Rare Flappybird Installed Onsale For Over £6m
Scam. Everyone knows that these auctions end and no one pays, and no one gets in trouble. On a smaller scale, it's the one thing most people come to hate about eBay. They should end this auction.

shalalala··on Snapchat’s Success: Connectivity, Easy Media Creation, And Ephemerality
Someone needs to coin a term for businesses like Snapchat. They offer nil in the way of progress, yet act like they are all about progress. They offer no lasting value, yet you know they store all these snaps and will sell your info later through meta tags. They offer a free service, so you know you're the product. They target teenagers whose minds have not fully developed and sell their info to adults so they can advertise to them more effectively.

They should shut down their service, take the money they have, and make something that improves the world.

We don't really need another leech, or a shell vehicle for the rich to hedge in.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't a whole shit ton of Snapchat users passwords and the like stolen in 2013/2014?

All depends on the trimmings, and what kind of sandwich. Seriously.
shalalala··on After leaving Facebook, Brandee Barker becomes a PR name for start-ups
When a PR person can be more famous than their clients - the world is upside down.

On the other hand, finally a woman in technology that doesn't have to depend on her looks to get by.

Oh please. Take your fear mongering elsewhere.

Alcohol only DECREASES the effects of beta blockers, right? That's not a bad thing.

Does anyone, anywhere really want everything connected to everything all the time?
shalalala··on How to Knock Off a Bag
Best quote from this, hands down is: "You can even nickle plate your crack pipe".
shalalala··on Svbtle now open to the public
It appeared to only be open for a few moments. It was then redirecting to /apply. As of a few moments ago you could /signup again, but the accounts beings created have issues.

Jeepers Creepers, boys! Get your act together.

shalalala··on LinkedIn wants Amazon to turn over names of scrapers
LinkedIN Are Scum. They are only interested in corporate recruiting accounts, and beyond that they feel like they can treat customers poorly. Bad customer service has caught up to their technology, and bad customer service is eating software.
shalalala··on Yahoo Tech
Fugly.
shalalala··on FBI Drops Law Enforcement as 'Primary' Mission
All sarcasm aside, this is really an important win. The purpose of law enforcement is not to enforce laws, it is to preserve disorder. I'm not saying that is their mission, but it does clear a big talking point out of the way for real change.

edit: misspelling.
