  1. Great Job So Far on Satya Nadella At Six Months: Grading Microsoft's New CEO · · Score: 4, Interesting

    From 18,000 job cuts m$ has a fine leader at the helm. Maybe we can see more reasons to flush the H1B visa?

    Put my cell phone in there. Hell, people are looking at where I'm going and doing using my cell phone. All the interments are already installed. The iPhone6 will be out with Bio-Metrics. All JPL has to do is go over the local Sprint store and get one for free. Why Sprint? Their coverage is pretty good in Indiana, Mars, I think, falls under that category so the the dropped calls shouldn't be a problem.

    I think it was done already, multi headed ICBM's were in the 1960's. I guess we should go to yellow alert? (pun intended)

    Not really, they're just competitors whose aging leaders still think that MH-ICBM's make a bargining chip. The current symbol for global leadership is a black credit card.

  7. Re:Known since forever on China Confirms New Generation of ICBM · · Score: 1

    Next generation? If this were the 1950's, multi headed ICBM's were regulars in the early 1960's. If China wanted Next Generation, try a Moon colony, or Mars colony. How about a working FTL? And just where the hell is my 200 inch Smart TV for $200? If the chairwoman wants fear; fear its nation's policy of rejoicing in Ignorent Sloth.

    what is really interesting is how fast Sh!tWest A!r was able to intercept a message from one of its passengers and direct an action against that person. If it's fair to wire tap a customers communications, then it's ok to wire tap the wire tapper?

    I can see this as a valid post on Angies List, and Yelp.
