Some asshole has come up with a fake Amazon receipt generator

What kind of asshole would come up with some shit like this?

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2374081,00.asp

The online tool asks for the details of the fake transaction to enter in the fake receipt, and then generates an HTML file containing the receipt. The main point of this tool seems to be scamming third-party party merchants on Amazon out of refunds and products. But the merchant would have to be really careless and just trust the data on the receipt without checking it against their own records.

I’d like to shit these people’s heads off.

Seriously? You punks lost to the damn Rangers? With George Steinbrenner kicking the bucket this year, a matchup of the Rays vs the Yankees in the ALCS would have been EPIC. And you blew it, Rays.

Piss off.

Google Instant Search Equals Instant Suck

Google Instant is a new search enhancement from the Big G that shows search results as you type. Thus the name, instant search. Google says that with Google instant search they are “pushing the limits of our technology and infrastructure to help you get better search results, faster. Our key technical insight was that people type slowly, but read quickly, typically taking 300 milliseconds between keystrokes, but only 30 milliseconds (a tenth of the time!) to glance at another part of the page. This means that you can scan a results page while you type”.

Yeah, well…

In theory it sounds good. In practice, I think it sucks! The instant search results aren’t as relevant as the search results I get when I fully enter my keywords. So what’s the point? Isn’t Google supposed to be trying to bring me relevancy rather than speed up the process?

Yeah, yeah, I know I can turn it off, and believe me I have.

Hey, Google… quit with the useless add-ons and start trying to figure out how to get rid of the crappy search results. Google instant search: instantly irrelevant for me.

Craigslist: What the hell?

Craigslist has shut down their adult services advertisements? Are you freaking kidding me? Apparently they did this because 17 state attorneys general decided to pressure Craigslist into getting rid of those ads because they felt like people reading those ads are being victimized.

I realize that Craigslist decided to censor themselves on their own, but they did it only after being pressured by these people to make these ads go away. Personally, I think that’s stupid and I don’t much like the fact that CL has caved in to this kind of pressure. Yes, Craiglist is free to operate their business however they like, but damn people… this just smacks of a legitimate business offering a legitimate service having to fall in line with censorship demands. Adult services are for ADULTS. You know, people who can make their OWN decisions?

I think this is a serious blow to free speech.

Burger King sells out!

That freaky Burger King dude has decided to sell his burger chain to the Brazilians for $4 billion. It’s now going to be owned by some unknown company called 3G Capital. What the hell? First Budweiser sells out to some mysterious Europeans and now the King decides to put our flame-broiled goodness in the hands of some completely unknown and very possibly weird South Americans. So what does that mean for our delicious sesame seed buns and my favorite, the original BK chicken sandwich? Huh? You tell me. Worse yet, they’re probably gonna take away our delicious and budget-friendly “Buck Doubles” too…

Those rotten bastards!
