Am I seeing this right? I see an Apollo module strapped on top of a Shuttle fuel tank, with Apollo rockets sticking out of the bottom of it, and it has two of the Shuttles booster strapped to the sides.
I don't claim to be an expert but I don't see China growing to surpass the rest of the world. China got to the point it is today by doing stuff cheaply, as far as I can tell they are more dependent on us than we are on them. Our dealings with China are only for cost savings and their dealing with us is their life blood.
Going to the Newegg store, where it's a warehouse with a couple of cashiers in the front. The employees aren't there to help you they are there to get stuff to shipping. I'd wander around there for hours.
All I can really say about that is I'm a big fan of consistency in design, a bad but consistent design is going to be nicer than a system with half a dozen different designs. I use Chrome but I get annoyed by the lack of a "Title Bar," keyboard short cuts need to be the same, and so help me God I will kill the person who though it would be a good idea to change the order of options that pop-up when you right-click on a minimized window, their death will be slow and painful if it launches a fucking help system instead of closing the application.
I would love to see OS's do a better job of enforcing the GUI.
I thought that they just called it navigation shielding, originally they just talked about it to protect against asteroids, but looks like they would be far more useful against hydrogen.

Judging from the summery, it looks like there isn't actually a new boss, it's just the same boss again.
Lets play a game, what XKCD am I thinking of?
Wasn't there one over Siberia?
The real-life equivalent of the HL crowbar is a wrecking-bar
ducking iPhone's can go to he'll
Not everyone in a Square game has a long monologue, but you are only required to wear 3 belts at a minimum.

Wikileaks would reject it though, they have a policy against that.
Or Twits to be a bit more accurate
That's the wrong website, but they were kind enough to point me in the right direction.
You are so lazy you don't want an easy +5 funny?
Eh 6 years isn't that long
I think that says more about the quality of the open source programs that it does about freedom ideals.
I have no idea how it works but that just sounds wrong and doesn't even make sense.

You did not just link me to a astrophysics article of wiki that's worse than tv tropes for me
I'm at 8 articles from just the first link you provided.
