    Not just generators, but a lot of electronics, especially HDDs.

    Agreed, if anyone is really such a purist that they think a file format is superior over another, they should either skip the argument and go see the band live, or kill themselves to save everyone else the hassle.

    Hell yes. Samsung, are you reading this? Get to it!

    Yeah, you can't even take the cheese off of the iWich without voiding the warranty and a special tool!

    My good sir, we're talking about municipal government and common sense. Ne'er the twain shall meet. But your idea is a brilliant one as well.

    If a town was really interested in traffic safety they would install count down timers on traffic light intersections so an approaching driver can best gauge whether to brake in a reasonable time frame, brake firmly, or continue on.

    This is exactly correct. On the mornings when I drive my children to school I use the crosswalk timers to gauge when I can or cannot make it through a light. Traffic cameras have nothing to do with keeping people safe, they are all about lazily collecting fines from unfortunate drivers.

    No, brain dead, more like Texas.

    He was right the first time. You're an idiot. Getting a working budget is the job of congress and they aren't gonna do anything to help the Whitehouse. Something like this is more in line with the executive branch, but if it really makes you feel better to blame our ruined budget on something other than 2 unfunded, unjustified wars and corporate welfare, then by all means go ahead and point the finger...

    Heating your house with a computer is a pretty fucking inefficient way of doing things.

    Be wary of the wrath of those that worship St. Ron Paul, they might ask the U.N. to intervene on their behalf and seize you!

  16. Re:Pot, meet kettle... on China Says It Is the Target of US Hack Attacks · · Score: 1

    That is the exact same thing I thought. It's kind of like Apple claiming someone else is patent trolling or Microsoft claiming someone else is engaging in anti competitive practices.

    Awesome, so there is no such thing as global climate change? I'll let you tell the turtle that holds our flat earth disk in space while the sun revolves around us. Maybe all of our humors are out of balance too.

    That's what happens when the corporations that own the congress critters are also the ones bungling the huge projects.

    So in light of this, if you think the USA is bad, Texas is all your USA stereotypes times 10. If the US is bad, texas is wholly unbearable.

    I couldn't agree with you more. It seems that they are throwing out this huge red herring to deter from the fact that they are doing some incredibly shady things. It's like they're trying to say "that guy's an asshole so all of the bad shit about us doesn't matter because he's an asshole."

    I guess you'd have to do situational CBA to find out if you'd want to pay for something like this on a case by case basis.
