Brought to you by all those people who thought this administration would be better than the last.
LMAO. Also brought to you by the folks at Diebold, makers of the hackable electronic voting device. Now taking bets on how long it will take to hack into our iris scanners.
Next thing you know they'll be legalizing prostitution and decriminalizing marijuana statewide. Yeesh things are getting out of control in Nevada. Seriously though...as you can see by some of the comments in this post, this is a very slippery slope to walk. Personally I think this is just a bullshit campaign promise that he will quickly rescind if he is elected.
There is nothing wrong about doing good due diligence before lending money. Maybe the economy would be in better shape if we had more of this going on.
Dude, the economy failed because a bunch of people got greedy and made too many unstable financial transactions.
I oppose using taxpayer money to purchase Ferengi technology.
We had to buy Ferengi because the Romulan tech was too expensive. Those fuckers wanted 20 bars of gold pressed latinum while the Ferengi only wanted 10.

Bah, I've digressed a bit but the point remains - do business in America you American companies. Stop outsourcing everything, including the natural talent that America (used to?) have.
American Corporations are suffering from a ravenous bout of greed and short term profit taking. Until they change their act or the government cracks down on outsourcing (neither of which is likely to happen any time soon) we're in for a long ride. I hoped that the government would attach conditions to all that bailout money we paid out but they failed us again. It seems like we will have to right up to the brink of complete failure before we get their act together.
They're probably not paying any rent and because "it is the colocation center of Bahnhof, a Swedish internet hosting company (FTFA)" and because "Bahnhof further expanded the facilities when they took it over, blasting new space for gas oil power plants." it makes sense.
Because they are underground it is much easier to control the climate. They are not as affected by poor weather going on upstairs. And let's not forget the batcave factor. That would be a very cool place to hang out.
You forge the gold into a landing module and use a mass-accelerate to bring it back to earth.
Gold lander module meets atmosphere at oh 18 thousand mph http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Shuttle#Re-entry_and_landing and said lander becomes gold soup. At this point your profit is pretty much fucked but you've got a really nice gold streak in the sky.
If we were able to park our craft on an asteroid with a stable and well known trajectory it seems to me that we could hitch a free ride to the outer planets. Granted we would need some serious boosters to attain sufficient escape velocity but if such an asteroid could be found it would solve some problems. We have some seriously bright minds at NASA/JPL so I don't believe I'm the first person to think of this. Europa anyone?
I think what he's trying to say is that he was Steve Jobs best customer.
Score...literally. OMG so funny wish I hadn't spent my mod points as rhook clearly needs to be modded up. As for Steve's excessive LSD use he obviously didn't listen to me when I told him not to eat the brown acid. Sadly some things can never be undone.
Lack of leadership at the top maybe? Since they just fired the head honcho I don't know who's running the show. It seems to me that HP has always had issues though.
Unless the author of the PC magazine article was trying to make some funny(?) play on words (sans= multiple storqage area networks 3PAR data storage provider) Just sayin....aw never mind it was stupid anyway.
Lobby Congress and the President (who are rather in the majority at the moment
Yeah...better get that done soon as I don't know how much political capital the democrats will have as election season is coming up soon. I'm no political analyst but you tend to see some shakeups in midterms.
As I read it they now have no choice. If they want to buy an AMD cpu or an ATI gpu they are locked in to both. I'm still unsure if this is a big win for consumers.

I for one welcome our Jelly filled overlords!
Insert funny Homer Simpson quote here. MMMMMM..jelly filled donuts. Homer they're not jelly filled donuts, they're jellyfish overlords/Marge
What the hell is a snooki, and why are we talking about it on slashdot?
Because this is Idle and it's a slow news day. If your name is snooki there's a real good chance I don't give a shit about you or your handbag.

Somebody mod this guy up because he obviouslt knows what the hell he's talking about.
I guess he did his bit for over-population.
China calling... I hear you have radical atheist baby hating wackjob. Discovery...Yes. China ...send him right over.
Oh yeah and Fuck India and while we're at it Fuck China too.

Sometimes sick people got better after drinking beer
Sometimes sick people drank a lot of beer and didn't give a shit if they got better...especially if it was infused with a lot of medical marijuana.

Hmm yeah I forgot about that. Best not to fuck with the monolith people. Better park a beacon in orbit just in case future generations forget.
Nice idea but even the best minds at JPL/NASA would have a hell of a time estimating the trajectory of the resulting fragments.

Once they get started burning iI guess it's hard to stop.
I never figured the Burning Man crowd as open source developers. Yeah pretty much just the sex drugs and art crowd. Gotta stay off the drugs man.
