So how much will the "product replacement plan" cost. You know the one that all retailers try to sale us. You buy something and then they charge you X dollars so if it device dies you can bring it back to them and not the manufacture. Also think about how many bulbs get replaced in a home. How we will know what bulb was 10 years in use vs 15 years or even 2 years? Are there going to be serial numbers on these things so we can keep track?
Genetic manipulation of plants and animals, genetic mental enhancement of humans (plays a pretty big part in the story, I don't want to post an spoiler), Oceans flooding the way they say they will and population immigration because of it, computer worms and how computers run a lot of stuff (I liked the stock program that is 51% correct of the time) and so on. That world really looks like what is happening today just taken to a little bit to the far end of things. I still say it was a pretty good read.
I remember the politicians going on that green energy only needed 5 years to replace a lot of our need on oil (meaning not only on gas but other things that use oil since we can displace some things like making electricity from green things and not need oil) so we didn't need to drill since in 5 years things will be better because of green technology.
At least that was what I kind of remember the argument was.
Also I then remember the one Obama guy going on that we need to push up prices of oil to the prices in Europe so that green will be worth it.
Also I remember when everyone was comparing prices they used diesel not regular gas since diesel was closer to what the real costs of things are. So this article uses regular gas "The AP analysis used Energy Department figures for regular unleaded gas " that fluctuates a lot because of how the 14 or is it 15 different types of blending (that goes on and also since the previous decades didn't have to blend so prices can't be compared) and processing that happens around the country and seasons and so on. I really would like to see the statics using Diesel, as I mentioned.
What is everyone's thoughts that they should have used Diesel? Also since we are 3 years into how green technologies that were/are to replace a lot of oil issues why are things like Solyndra failing?
What's the difference between them viewing your Facebook and asking you to provide access to any computer you used so they can check what software you have on it, and if it said software is licensed, and check any and all browser caches as well as your IP address so they can check other websites that show ip address logs to see where you have been?
Also it's it been said that you should know something about the company your are looking to work for. So in return do you get to see the companies books and access to all the employees Facebook accounts so you can see who you will be working with and for so you can make up your mind as to if you really want to work with them? It goes both ways. Also if I give them access does that mean that they will do Facebook checkups on me to make sure that I'm still what they want? Also I want a list of all smokers since I can't stand being around the smell of smokers (I'm an ex smoker and you know what that means). Also I want a list of all drinkers and as well as a list of every persons medical records since I want to know who can party and who is most likely to die in the next year or at least with the medical records know who to stay away from. Also I want to know who in the office does one night stands since that shows a lot about the person also. Where will this end?
The posts make no sense unless you understand lawyer speak, but I guess that's who they are targeting with with the information. Although wouldn't the lawyers already know how to use the website already?
