If revenue is down, but profits are up, I'm betting a bunch of the long-term employees were fired, as they were the most expensive. While this will help Yahoo's short-term outlook, a few years down the road will be really bad for them.
Wait! You mean the fact that we have huge unemployment, and many of us that are working now have jobs that paid less than what we made in 2008, actually affects retail sales? I hope Wall Street doesn't find out about this!
All the baby boomer professors will keep working for another 10 to 20 years. Until they retire, they are taking up a huge percentage of the available academic jobs. With regards to literature majors, the death of the publishing industry has killed any non-academic work. While there is still some work available, compared to even 10 years ago, it's peanuts.
Gnome2 is still my favorite GUI. Currently, I'm using Win7 and probably will stick with it for the next 5 years. I have it dual -booted with Bodhi, but I use linux less and less.
The easiest fix would be to change ALL the road signs to metric and ALSO remove all the mile signs at the same time. The first time they tried this, they left both up, and this basically killed the initiative. If all road signs read kilometers, everyone will learn kilos pretty damn quickly.
Star Wars: The Old Republic has caused me to have 4 BSOD's on Win7. Not sure why. I've sent in all my data to them. It's the only program I run that causes this issue.
Probably because Homeland Security has been given almost unlimited rights to detain you forever for no reason whatsoever, often without a warrant or any other documentation.
One thing that gives me great satisfaction is knowing many of these TSA agents are going to have all kinds of awful cancers in about 20 years. Karma is a bit delayed, but still not that far off.
I think it would be great if he could actually pull this off. He's made himself into a huge target, though. Also, even if he does, our government would never use it, because they'd be worried about spying.
Third candidates will never work in the USA, unless the entire electoral system is completely overhauled, which is not likely to happen. The people in power like the system the way it is.
No they are not. Prices have "stabilized", but the amounts have dropped. For example, that jar of peanut butter used to cost $5 but was maybe 24 ounces. Now the bottom is dimpled up where you can't see it and you only get maybe 20 ounces at the same price. Same thing happens throughout the whole store. There have been a number of Consumer Reports style news stories about this.

The cybercrime division of the FBI is the very first subscriber, remarkably enough.
Yahoo News is actually quite good, especially their Sports department.

It was popular, and in the geek linux world, that's a sin. Kind of like how all successful punk bands are "sell-outs".

One step closer to fascism. Big business controls the government, and the government will control every single aspect of your life.

That is a lie. KDE came out right away saying they were awesome, then quickly backtracked once the distros started using it.
Try E17 via Bodhi Linux. Very nice setup. It has a small learning curve from Gnome or KDE, but not a huge one.
I agree with this. KDE jumped off a cliff, and Gnome went running after it after watching it splat on the ground.
I love living in the US, but our government has been on a massive powertrip for decades now. It really needs to be reigned in.

Good point. I have an nVidia 550 GTX, and I installed it at the same time as SWTOR. I wonder if that's the issue?

I'm glad they are monitoring for this stuff. At least it will help people. But _why_ does it cost $15 million per year?
MATE is basically Gnome2 but updated. Cinnamon is Gnome3 but has a much better UI than Gnome Shell.
Thank God I'll be dead before then. Without coffee, life wouldn't be worth living.

Too bad all of the millionaires in Congress love NAFTA.

Lord knows my grocery bill has gone way up. Or more often, it has stayed the same, but I buy less food with the same money.
