The $79 Battery
July 30, 2007 at 12:54 pm by Jay Jochnowitz, State EditorNew York’s Consumer Protection Board gave Apple a bit of a bruise today with a call for the company to amend its repair policy on the new iPhone.
The board says Apple should make it easier and less expensive to repair the devices, which have to be serviced for a fee of $79 to replace the power unit. CPB Chair and Executive Director Mindy Bockstein suggested in a letter to Apple CEO Steve Jobs that the iPhone be redesigned to allow the consumer to replace the battery themselves.
CPB also points to various other issues, including $29 for a temporary replacement phone, a 14-day trial period, and a 10-percent restocking fee.

That story that you read about the spy who was sent to Guantanamo is really horrible to think about. What’s really disgusting is that each passing day, no one cares. All anyone cares about is bull crap. You know, I would say all anyone cares about is Paris Hilton but people in the tech-o-sphere (whatever you want to call it) are really getting horrible, too. 1.) They’re extremely meta (which, I am partially guilty of that. 2.) They’re going along with this bullshit. That statement goes back to the whole Robert Scoble wife thing, I think it was her, where she got offended about someone saying something offensive or whatever. A whole lot of the people in the tech community agreed with what Scoble said, something about we need to be nicer and not say such naughty things. Which is absolutely disgusting to me. I will say whatever I want to. I was talking to someone several months ago who said that they would never use foul language on their blog because it might offend someone and that it wasn’t professional. FUCK BEING PROFESSIONAL. Good fucking Christ.
I wouldn’t mind leaving the country but the problem is, are you really any better off in another country? If the British will turn against someone they hired then to me, that just says that it’s bad everywhere.

Oh. If Bush gets our fucked up Congress to pass that bill which would give him even more ways to spy on people in this country (i.e. online) then bloggers, podcasters and everyday citizens would be affected.

What the fuck are you talking about? What do you know about the British, Teletubbie?

Lyrics to “No Apologies”
by David Roth (not the one from Van Halen):I’m sorry
I don’t care if Britney shaved her head
if the truth be told that’s not what I call news
what a fading pop star does to get attention
isn’t worth the cost of ink the papers useAnd I’m sorry
Anna Nicole had such a troubled life
I wish some respite for her family and her friends
but there are other stories fallen by the wayside
that these distractions somehow manage to transcend(chorus)
There is a war, there is deception
I will not be misdirected by denial
I will give my attention
to the people hanging on for their survivalAnd I’m sorry
American Idol is more popular
than the History Channel, books, or PBS
some kind of commentary on our modern culture
when so many care what Simon would expressAngelina and her boyfriend country hopping
grabbing kids from every corner of the globe
while I respect the altruism of their actions,
I don’t need to see the footage or the photos(chorus)

Madge, the soul of this country is in tiny fragments in you and people like you. You and those others that care are what keep this country from collpsing completely on itself. Yes, it is going down anyway, but thanks to you and others like you, there is still hope. I hope.

That guy doing the Scottish accent was hopeless!
Er, but in other news, Gloucester is pronounced Gloss-ter, but you’re forgiven as you are a lesbian 🙂

That so-called Scottish accent was absolutely abysmal! Reall really terrible. Who on earth was that? Please tell me, so I can give him/her/it the abuse he/she/it deserves…
