Do you think they'd offer him a the intel powerbook to settle it? :cool:

Possibly, but then he'd sue again because when he spent 72 hours straight on the computer, his eyes hurt. :laugh:

Or because the volume went up too high

These kinds of things infuiate me!! For crying out loud, use some common sense!! I really don't know what is wrong with people these days. I don't know if it's something in the food or water, or if there were a lot of babies in the last 30 or so years that were dropped on their heads several times, but there seem to be a lot of people suffering from severe retardation these days. And it's not just stupid lawsuits like this, people in general are whiny little b^tches. It drives me insane!!!

There was another recent lawsuit where a fan got in a fight with a basketball player's wife and the player went into the stands to stick up for her. Now this guy is sueing for emotional trauma. I saw an interview with the guy and he was so whiney and such a little b^tch, I just wanted to smack the hell out of him! Clearly he was just using this as an opportunity to make some cash.

I hope this guy loses big time and has to pay all the court fee's as well as Apple's super expensive lawyer fees and has to live on the streets sucking a big black guy named bubba's penis for pennies.

I do think this bloke is a mug but Apple shouldn't make iPods go to that loud if over a period of time it damages your ears? Thats bit silly don't you think? Its like saying well I got this TV if I watch it for to long I will go blind or damage my eyes. Its pretty much unsafe if you ask me for Apple to sell mp3 players which if turned up to loud damage hearing over a period of time.

That is like saying car manufacturers shouldn't make cars that go faster the 65MPH. People just plain need to use common sense. We shouldn't have to "hand hold" everyone.

Well, the title is kinda misleading. This isnt the typical "I'm sueing apple because I'm deaf because of the ipod". This guy is beeing kinda rational.... he's sueing because he things there are not enough warnings.

I don't think that's a "sue" thing, anyway. But he's got a point on the warnings.

He's not sueing becuase he may become deaf, if he sues because of the lack of warnings, it's because he read the warning and he knows, so that would lead him to nowhere.

    • I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake

      By dorf · Posted

      I tried to get the latest secureboot certificate for my old Dell 7010 Optiplex machine.   I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake.  Now when secure boot is on. The machine doesn't boot and complains about no booting devises.  The computer's secure boot can't find where to boot and the information apparently has to be entered manually.  Secureboot's settings are now years old and it can't find a new configuration.  What could be done here? There are plenty of files to choose from in the secureboot menu, but I don't know what to put there for each of the four Windows 11 upgraded from 10..... originally who knows what (used machine) without secureboot it booting normally

      They need to follow the standard for AAA game but they will go at lowest level for triple a game because will sell more, earn kudos and the milk it for years anyway. look how much they milked gta 5 and how they milked the original 3 - San Andreas and vice city. it is probably going to be a fun game but then they allowed someone to remake classics that somehow were more broken and worse then original i hope they don’t ###### up this one!!!
