High-Tech Firms Worry About Taiwan-China Tensions

Posted by timothy on from the with-good-reason dept.

Andy Tai writes "This San Jose Mercury News story shows high tech companies in the Silicon Valley worry about a possible war between mainland China and Taiwan. Both play important roles in the computer industry and the U.S. depends on both to finance the federal budget deficits. Many businessmen hope that economic considerations will prevent both sides from marching down a self-destructive path."

    I hate getting change in Canadian coins. If you try to use that shit In stores they're like "Heh Canadian quarter is worth less than a Mexican peso.". Put it in an arcade cabinet and it pukes that thing out before you can even smack the coin return. I find that shit and I throw it in the trash. Every once in a while I hand it to a store clerk and bolt before he realizes he just got a fist full of Canadian quarters which roughly equals $0.67

    CANADA KEEP YOUR FUCKING COINS OUT OF OUR COUNTRY AND QUIT PRETENDING LIKE WE DON'T NOTICE!
