    Surely FIREwire is fairly satanic too, tortured in the fires of hell and all that...

    Perhaps Intel's Light Peak is the "answer to our prayers" in non-satanic bus technology.

    Wow. Just wow.

    I think I'm going to start a new species within the Homo genus. I don't want to be part of Homo Sapiens any more.

    Re: News - Brazilian cult declares USB the interface of Satan

    Hey, not everyone with religious belief is a nutjob, you know

    I mean, obviously I am, but I'm sure some of them aren't

    Anyway, surely since sinners go to hell and it's good that they're being tortured for their sins, they should support the trident as doing God's work? Or did they look closely at the symbol and realise that two of the three prongs have been covered (with a ping-pong ball and a furry die, I believe), and the problem is really that USB is trying to ease the suffering of those sinners...?

    They're licking the secretions from the backs of those psychedelic toads they have in the rainforest to come up with statements like that.

    Well i was wondering whether smoking was a strong enough statement but I thought it best not to rock the boat...just afraid they may use their bluetooth dongles and firewire against my USB 3 and innuendo in an epic battle of good vs e(vil)-penis.





    Think I may have found one of those toads...

    You mean you'd rather sit with the barfly who doesn't have an 'imaginary friend' sitting beside them.
