I cannot believe people can be that horrible. I swear if i saw anything to that degree ill garauntee that the culprit would be deaalt with beyond anything i ever imagined. Im just speechless now. I pray that people like that will be caught, if not (sorry for all non christians but im chrisitian) then its all up to god!
There was a story a while ago about some guys that where playing around with rabbits and dynamite. After they strapped a stick to one of the rabbits and let it go the rabbit ran to hide under one of the guys' brand new truck.
Even more just it would have been if the rabbit had attacked the guys and killed them in the explosion. I know, I'm not very nice.
#19: I totally agree with you. If you can't take of your pet, the least you can do is try to find a good home for them. It is sad to just leave them on the street. There are insane people living on our streets that we don't know about. I bet the boys under the influence of either alcohol or drugs.
OMFG! When i hear this stuff about cruelty to animals i go berserk.
Now why in the world would some guys enjoy stuffing a firecracker in a puppy's mouth and set it off? So they think they are cool? there are much better ways to be cool. Do they need to vent? then they should not do so on a poor animal. Fu***ng ba**ards. If i see someone doing that to an animal i will have difficulty not running the guy over with a truck. I mean, geez.
Where i live there is a never ending flow of homeless kittens and puppies (maybe 3 every month). They are all abandoned by their "owners". Another form of cruelty. Thankfully i have found a home for all of them i have found (having 6cats and 2 dogs personally - yes, the house is crowded. Also, since they were all grown together they play with each other a lot [even cats with dogs] -- and asking friends and relatives if they wanted a pet) but it is still needless cruelty.
I dont want to sound like a preacher - but why cant we all just live together?

#15: I think we hurt sites like AT when we block sites and don't tell me "Would it really matter with only one person?" because even though people don't realize it, every little bit hurts a site. It's unfortunate that people who visit sites like AnandTech are too selfish. You guys block ads and read the content. It's all about you, isn't it?
#15- thanks for the advise....at least for the second paragraph.;-)
unfortunately, if you visit <animalcruelty.com>, we see that this kind of treatment toward animals is all too common. i heard last week that some idiots were caught pouring beer down the blowholes of some whales off the coast of calif. wonder what their fine was, if anything?
#14, sorry...didn't think anybody cared... #15, never knew there was a place to post comments on the article before...will do that next time(this makes me wish there was an edit button..)
#13 - This is not the right place - you should try the Software forum on the real AnandTech forums... This is Anand's personal blog, and I _thought_ the purpose of this comment section was to make comments on the stuff he writes _in his blog_. Comments on the articles should probably be made in the articles themselves. ;-)
Anyway, you could try using a real browser, like Mozilla, that won't pop up a dialog every single freaking time you encounter a page that has flash on it. I personally don't have flash installed, because it is only used for ads (and thus not installing Flash is a great way to block the ads that an image-ad-blocking software would miss), and Mozilla never bothers me about it, other than putting a box in place of where the Flash component would be, saying "click here to install the plugin."
