Communism, like many other unfortunate realities, is one of those things that makes perfect sense on paper...until you factor in human nature. Then it becomes a clusterfuck of epic proportions.
Hell, the same thing could be said about the American political system. On paper it's wonderful, but unfortunately then you add politicians and the representative government loses a bit of it's representation in favor of special interest parties and groups that supply money to both sides of the political spectrum.
Mankind does a pretty good job of screwing things up.
After which the loch ness monster and yeti will conspire with the third JFK shooter on the grassy knoll and make their devious plan to take over the world...
What about the gamers, graphics designers, and other people who need higher power computers?
You're not going to get top performance from a netbook, you're not going to render, or edit high megapixel drawings/photos.
Don't get me wrong, I love my netbook, but there's not a remote chance that I'd ever only have a netbook. I always plan to have my high power comp, and then likely some sort of media PC for the living room. 90% seems lofty. A life with only one low-powered computer? Never!
Unfortunately, yet not suprisingly this is the next town over from my hometown. Practically only seperated by the Wal-mart (Which was the highlight of the times, when it was built).
Oh Louisiana, sometimes I'm glad I'm not there anymore.
The officer quoted in the story my my DARE officer. Small world, the little town of Boutte, LA made it on/. What is the world coming to?
I'd like to see this map as well. That'd be a good survival map, or perhaps your trying to escape via the tunnels, or make it out to the helicopter pad where Marine One lands.
Could even be a fun new playmode like the VIP mode like in Counter Strike. (Protect the president from Zombies! [Note: no particular president is mentioned. Don't turn it into a political rant]

But that cup holder is content, why would deny the car manufacturer from charging for additional content? What are you, some sort of Commie?
Very good analogy.
You came closer to the actual meme structure than parent. Gold star.
Yo, dawg! I heard you like X, so we put a X in your Y so you can X while you Y.

Mama says alligators are ornery cause they got all dem teeth and no toothbrush.
They're rats, we're not talking about thousands of gallons of beer here...
Nevertheless, very cool indeed.
Everyone knows the AF has the best living conditions.
Now let me get back to my desk job. It's only a couple of hours from happy hour.
MOAR?
Oh White Knights/Stalkers.
It's called GO-1. (General Order 1) and it covers everything from Porn to Booze and other things.

On AF networks you can't hook up Cameras via USB anyway. Not sure about the rest of the branches. So no worries there.
I agree, I read Slashdot every day at work when things get slow.
I agree. This'll just open base NIPRnets to the multitude of Facebook viruses and other related junk.
The same could be said of China functioning well without North America's consumerism.

I actually lol'ed. Luckily no one else is in the office today.
You could just lick your watch hands repeatedly...
That... or Wikipedia got /.ed by some gung-ho reader that wanted to edit something that wouldn't get immeadiately marked as irrelevant.

Don't talk about birth control, lest the Catholic church hear. All funding will be revoked from Haiti.
I have seen that product too, and it's not crap.
I still prefer turning the keyboard upside down and giving it a few good taps.
Green goo? Perhaps you should see a doctor, something isn't apparently working right... down there.

The officer quoted in the story my my DARE officer. Small world, the little town of Boutte, LA made it on
that this wasn't funded by my tax money. Seriously, where do I sign up to do useless research.
Up next: People happier when surrounded by playful puppies.
