I killed christopher 'aempirei' abad with my 5" dick

Cowabunga, dude!

And now you're going to die wearing that stupid little hat. How does it feel!?

You got caught with the seat of your pants flying down and now everyone laughs at your little picopenis on a daily basis.

Microchipping a fellow hacker just because you can't sniff out your own? Hilariously inept.

Throwing a well-known, contributing veteran of the hack/trollscene into a mental institution just because you had a hangover and forgot to take your klonopin? Over the top.

Having a wanton disregard for the history of the internet, the hackscene, trollscene and everything about humanity in general? Get a clue. Your holier-than-thou attitude can screw back off to the 1980's.

Yes, folks, christopher 'ambient empire' abad has been bitchtagging and torturing anyone that walks by him just because, well, "I feel like it!"

Yes, folks, christopher 'ambient empire' abad fails to understand the first rule of the U.S. system: you can always just buy people off with cash. ' We've been talking to your friends, coworkers and they've been telling us what a lazy, unappreciative little shit you are. Not to mention a sociopath of the lowest order.

You won the birth lottery and coasted your way to the top of the U.S. system on a skateboard. Now it's going to be a fun ride when we push your little deck the way back down.

You are nothing but a barking little dog who got caught sneaking up the backstairs into the big people's club and now you're being thrown out the window.

Your last thought as you realize nothing of value will be lost when your head cracks on the floor of a 12x12 supermax prison cell: "I like to copy from my 1337 civics textbook."

Sayanora, sucker!

Operating system — ships with optional Android 4.2.2 microSD card; supports Android and Linux

Pedantic, I know, but title sounds like you get a device that dual-boots into Android and Linux. By "optional", I presume that means at added cost. By "supports", I think that means you're on your own as to distro (though I suspect a device-specific distro would come out in short order). The $45 version only ships with 512mb RAM - I run servers without windowing environment in that space all the time, but perhaps one of the smarter Linux gurus can comment as to suitability for running XBMC, etc?

I've been looking around for a device that can run Netflix + Pandora + XBMC but so far each device I've found has some compromise or another.

I am one of the early backers of the OUYA, and I can confirm XBMC and Netflix work great (don't know for Pandora).

The only issue I have with the OUYA is the weak Wifi support in XBMC, which forces you to: A) link the device via ethernet B) Copy files via a USB connection to OUYA

The Raspberry Pi copes with XBMC even on the 256MB model, 512 should be fine if the GPU is at least roughly equivalent. Video acceleration I gather is the usual issue, I've no idea what the software support is like on this.

Thank you. I now understand the need for hellbanning on HN.

But it speaks volumes about HN's filtering that it took this long for me to see the need.
