Farmer buys a rooster A farmer decided that he needed to go into town to buy a new rooster, since his current one was getting too old, and none of the hens were laying any eggs. So, the new rooster gets brought back to the farm, and runs into the cunning old rooster. The devious old one says to the young rooster "Listen bud, the hens will only accept you after you have earning the right" "How can I earn it?" asked the young rooster, eager to learn. "You only have to beat me in a race around the chicken's coop." So, the race started, and the old rooster got an early lead. But when the crafty old rooster had almost reached the finish line, he slowed down and the young rooster started to catching up, and was only a few inches behind, when the farmer shot the young rooster dead in his tracks. "God dammit!" yelled the farmer. "That's the third gay rooster I purchase this week!"

Why was the stadium cold……... because there were a lot of fans

Atari VCS throwback console attracts $2m in pre-orders It's the latest attempt to cash in on gamers' nostalgia - a throwback console that promises "100+" classic games built in, with new online play. Pre-orders for the Atari VCS went into overdrive on Wednesday, with a campaign on crowdfunding site Indiegogo raising more than $2m (£1.5m). That's well in excess of the $100,000 the company was aiming for, and a remarkable endorsement of the long-lasting appeal of the Atari brand. So, what do I get? Powered by an AMD Bristol Ridge processor and Radeon R7 graphics alongside 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, the machine will be able to push 4K HDR graphics at 60 frames per second to play “the latest modern and indie PC titles” from a variety of developers. With Internet connectivity, it’ll also serve as a streaming set-top box for the living room and a web browser. The design and branding are reminiscent of the Atari 2600, the 1977 console credited with popularising the use of game cartridges. Originally named the Atari VCS before a rebranding in 1982, the console was a sizeable mainstream success, and came to be seen as a mainstay of the video gaming industry at large. There are two Atari VCS models now available for per-order, with the standard Onyx version taking orders at $199, and a classier Day One Collector’s Edition (with a genuine wood front) coming in at $299. Both are marked as on sale for a limited time only. They should be compatible with a wide range of peripherals and controllers, though anyone placing an order should receive a “re-imagined Classic Joystick” alongside a more contemporary “Modern Controller”, Atari says in a press release. The console also differs from modern rivals by running on a custom Linux operating system, which apparently will allow users to add and customise their own software in some regard. 'Weakness for nostalgia' The Atari VCS is a more ambitious effort, promising not only retro gaming but new titles and other entertainment features. According to a promotional video, the console will also offer a voice assistant. But its primary selling point will be the chance to play some of the games that paved the way to the multi-billion dollar games industry we know today. "Despite the stereotype, gamers aren't all kids playing Fortnite instead of doing their homework," said Rachel Weber, senior editor at GamesRadar+. "They're adults with serious disposable income and a weakness for nostalgia. Nintendo already proved there's a demand for an easy way to play older games with the NES and SNES Classic Editions, so it's no surprise that Atari wants to cash in too." The console made a brief appearance at this year's Games Developers Conference - but attendees were only able to look at the console, not play it. But thousands of backers have decided to put trust in the team to hit their target of shipping the product by May 2019.

Marriage Gone Wrong A couple whose marriage was going on the rocks, sought the advice of a experienced marriage counsellor. The counsellor pleaded with them to patch up their quarrel, but they were adamant. So, said the counsellor, you know the consequences and you still want to part, but remember you must divide all your property equally. The wife flared up. "You mean the $4,000 I have saved up; I must give him half? But it’s my money?" "Yes," said the counsellor. "He gets $2,000. You get to keep $2,000." "What about my furniture? I paid for that." said the wife "Same thing," answered the counsellor. "Your husband gets the bedroom and the living room; you get the dining room and the kitchen." There was a challenging gleam in the wife's eye and she said "What about our three children?" That stumped the counsellor. Shrewdly he assayed the situation, then he came up with a Solomonic answer. "Go back and live together until your fourth child is born. Then you take two children and your husband takes two." The wife shook her head. "No. If I depended on him, I wouldn't have the three that 1 already got."

Facebook takes data from my phone – but I don't have an account!' Users finds mobile apps can't be cut or quieted Anyone who uses the Facebook phone app knows what a toll it can take both on your mobile data and free time to be plugged into the social network through your device. But what happens if you don't even have an account, you can't remove the app, and the social network won't leave you alone? That's a problem facing folks around the world. One Register reader told us this week the Facebook apps on his Sprint LG handset are transmitting mysterious information in the background back to Facebook's servers, even though he doesn't have an account with the social network, isn't therefore logged in, and has repeatedly tried to turn off background data. And the software cannot be removed without, presumably, unlocking or rooting the device. "Since these are system apps, they can't be uninstalled. I can't even disable many of them," our reader, who wished to remain anonymous, said. "When I uninstall updates on these apps and disable their access to use data in the background, within minutes they have all somehow turned their ability to use background data back on and have reinstalled all the updates that I manually uninstalled." This comes as Facebook is given as a default application on phones, and as a result user cannot actually remove the app. That’s right, if you have a phone that came with Facebook pre-installed, you’re stuck with it – the only way to actually remove the app is through an arduous process. This process involves downloading software on your computer, putting this on a USB and completing an additional 13 steps, involving the input of various commands into the phone. theregister
