527: Keynote
explain xkcd: It's 'cause you're dumb.

 Title text: He should be better soon -- now that the Apple Store is getting rid of DRM, Cory Doctorow will get rid of his Steve Jobs voodoo doll. |
[edit] Explanation
According to this comic, Steve Jobs, the founder of the Apple company at the time, lost a lot of weight due to a hormonal problem. (Weight loss is usually a good thing, though such is due to its context being a deliberate action in order to remove obesity, which does not seem to be the case here.) Black Hat then mentions that Apple was probably excited to announce its thinnest and lightest CEO in the industry. This comment is a parody of Apple's tendency to release thinner and lighter iterations of its products. Steve Jobs' weight loss would certainly make him a thinner and lighter CEO.
[edit] Transcript
[Black Hat talking to Cueball sitting at computer]
- Cueball: Huh-Steve Jobs isn't doing a keynote this year, citing massive weight loss due to some hormonal problem.
- Black Hat: Too bad. I bet Apple was excited about unveiling the thinnest and lightest CEO in the industry.
