China's Superior Technologies

paRcat writes "Still think China is a land too far away from everything? This article compares some of China's common uses of technology to what we're accustomed to in the West. With the genius traffic lights and the cell phone coverage... I'm kinda jealous."

    Your point about the USA going backwards is entirely accurate, though, and this election confirmed that Americans are really not that concerned with the vested oil interest or the environment...

    Right. We are waiting for Jesus to tell Dubya how to lead the country.

    What an embarassing disgrace.

  2. China is a fad by Thomas+Hawk · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I hate to tell you all this but this whole China thing that you keep reading about everywhere is basically just a fad. Trust me, it won't be around 2 years from now. It's like oh it's great, Webvan can bring me my groceries... this is really cool... it's the future... China? Same basic thing. But there will be a lot of dumb angry men over there ready to fight when they realize that there are a lot more men in the population than women and only the smartest, richest, most succesful and best looking get women. Just what you want, an entire population filled with your least attractive mating candidates in the evolution pool angy, pissed off and ready to kick the shit out of someone.

    I've had two Swedish girlfriends (and I've never even lived in Sweden), both of whom were not in any way fat, neither of whom dressed weirdly and neither of whom had any of the attitude that you describe.

    I hate to say this, and I haven't seen an image of you, but my guess is that the key to your problems stares at you in the mirror every morning when you wake up. The crap you just regurgitated is an old cliche that's been bounding around since the 80's in Scandinavia. I live in Switzerland and have met many an expat American who complains about crap just like you do.

    Generally, women like a guy who knows what he wants in life (i.e. will not leave the family in times of need), is happy with himself, has a little more than vapid crap between his ears, and a sense of humour. Do you?
