Freetards at MIT destroying perfectly good iPods
If you've ever wondered why nothing useful has ever come out of
Nicholas Negroponte's MIT Media Lab, see this video. Twenty years of
letting wannabes and posers play at being computer geeks, all
subsidized by U.S. tax dollars. Now their big project is installing
some crapware on iPods that breaks the DRM code -- or, as one freetard
puts it, "reconfigures the power relationship between you and your
technology." Wow. Maybe you didn't realize you had a power
relationship with your iPod. You just thought it was for playing music
on the way to work. Who knew? Well, thanks, there, you
Foucault-reading, latte-gulping graduate student, for saving the world
from the tyranny of Apple. Let's go get ice cream cones at Toscanini's
and you can tell us about Jeremy Bentham and the panopticon, and how
the iPod is training us to imprison ourselves. But then shouldn't you
be getting back to your schoolwork? Hilarious.
Best part of the video comes near the end. The little fruitcake leader
of the group is describing this "event" where they invited people to
bring in their iPods and get the freedom software installed. He's
like, "Yeah it was a great success except for one disappointment which
was that two people actually went out and bought new iPods for this
event, which wasn't really the idea, we wanted to liberate people's
iPods, not create an incentive for people to buy more iPods. So in the
future we'll need to be a little more clear on that."
D'oh! Friggin freetarded MIT graduate students! How the hell did you
morons ever get into MIT in the first place? Oh that's right. It's the
Media Lab. Not the real MIT. By the way, kids -- when you put that
