As someone who has changed views and votes of my Representative, I can say 2 things: 1) Yes, communicating with them can create change, and 2) You're a fucking idiot. Stop living in the world you think there is and live in the real world.
The most likely cause for then suicides is home sickness. Of course. based on the suicide rate in Chine, the FoxConn suicides are less then the national average for that many people.
I mean 'Grrr Foxconn makes people commit suicide grrrrr ignore actual facts...gtrr hate hate hate.
Sigh. Instead of Hate Hate Hate, can we Think Think Think?
There is a ton of evidence. IN fact, they person who make those claims has said they where accurate... of course no he makes the excuse they where just theater stories and not meant to be taken as fact.
The 'Fanboy' group think is pretty alien to me in general.
IS Foxconn a place of magic unicornd and pixie dust? no. But it isn't nearly as bad as people like you think.
So, thre are the facts. Lets see if you are truly capable of evaluating and reflecting on your opinion in light of new facts, otr if you are another non thinking excuse making reactionary. i.e. Shitweasel
wile I agree in general, I think it's important..no CRITICAL, to remember people suspected of crimes get arrested..and yes this includes people who didn't actually commit any crimes.
So we need to be sure we are protecting the innocent people who are arrested/...which is everyone.
Yes, this evidence is enough to warrant a.. ah, warrant.
ITs a lot more then that, especially in by any practical measure.
It's not just dumping in the vat. You have pt process it again, you need equipment to move it around, some of the chemicals are nasty, you need to ship the paper to and from the plant.
"I would bet that if you compared the carbon foot print of "Laser the sh*t out of it" with "Stuff it in a vat and let the microbes have a party", the current technology would win... it doesn't need much (if any) electricity."
And I would bet you never worked in recycling plant, not read the article or no how much energy this laser would use.
I would also bet you can' look at anything but the most simplest of diagrams without getting a head ache.
but that's the proble. we aren't talking about 1 rack, we are talking about 10' of thousands of machines. How is the efficiency to the end of all the computers? what about heat? risk?
I honestly don't know the answer, and I look forward to datacenters data.

No, you are lazy. There is no risk in contacting your representatives and having a discussion with them.
Because my Representative live in the 21st century and prefer communication via email. And yes, I have communicated with them.
He is also known for crappy endings, and Ender's Game is not an exception to that.
Weak, sauce.
I would trade in my fully working arms to get bionic replacements.
Hell, I would have my head transplanted onto a fully functional robotic body.
They aren't Nerds, they are poser geeks jumping on a bandwagon so they can fulfill narcissistic tendencies.
Sadly, this generation of geeks feel some need to have a 'leader' and celebrity image.
I guess with geeks being there own large market segment, it was inevitable.

Sounds like your rent is too damn high.
Right now, it's an employees market in China. People are making more money, moving between companies when the pay is better at another company.
So it is spiraling up.

No, Foxcon employees where treated pretty good; relative to other factories in China.
daisy is a liar and and back peddler.
As far as devices go, Apple has been the greenest and most friendly to manufacture.
Not that I would have guessed the 12 years ago.
You know the FBI on your tv shows aren't real, right?

I can not believe you are modded up.
A) They have cause. AS in peple testifing against him, accusing him.
B) They know he did business on his phone
D) It's not a fishing hunt. It is a normal, reasonable and valid request.
The only question is 'Do they need permission for a wiretap'?
If you where standing on the moon(presumable in a space suit) then yes, you would here the impact.
Otherwise, stop being a jack ass, it's for illustration purposes, so they had sound..cause space is freaking boring.
you mean, just like you have to now?

That's the wrong question.
This is the correct question:
So what is the carbon footprint for powering the laser compared to recycling or throwing out the paper?
And it will be less.
wait for this to be built into printers. It detected text, zaps it, then prints.
The real issue is wrinkled papers.
Think of it as facebook where you get to shut up the annoying family members.
Everything: The Missing Manual
I don't even understand why there is a missing manual market anymore. ,The only more puzzling thing is the game guides are still sold.
Has anyone posted to the HAM radio circles that the internet has been invented~
why is the relevant?

How else would you be able to stack shit?
