  1. Give up on that company No Huawei! on Huawei Using NSA Scandal To Turn Tables On Accusations of Spying · · Score: 1

    Lol. Selling my Huawei U8100 smartphone (Wind Mobile). No really. Anybody want it? It's in good shape! $30 in the GTA. I know you all love Android 2.1 and 3G data speeds. Heck, I've actually managed a positive score playing Counter-Strike 1.6 from my PC over 3G service, wireless tether, and server pings of 110ms! It's a beast! It's more powerful than a Pentium 2! Runs 16 bit emulators passably well! Maybe it spies on you, who the heck cares? We all know you only use it as a toy or a 2.1 test bed anyways. Let Chinese intelligence watch in awe as you play the Final Fantasy 1&2 remake for the Gameboy Advance! On turbo speed! Huzzah! Take that, Garland!

  2. Hmm.. on First Laptop With Full-Sized Solar Panels Will Run On Ubuntu · · Score: 1

    $350 each? $400 for the "Marine" model. Let me guess. That one is a solar powered laptop that is water resistant to 2000m, right? This looks like some sort of elaborate scam... something high quality and innovative for the same price as a Walmart laptop... Hm. And seriously, Intel GMA gfx? Ah well, guess that's one way to save power. Nice web page though. Love the parallax scrolling and the elephant. :P Anyways here's some doubt to chew on: http://www.extremetech.com/computing/163184-sol-the-350-solar-powered-rugged-ubuntu-laptop-that-wont-be-usable-in-the-sun

  3. Hooray! on Lenovo Announces Grand Opening of US Manufacturing Facility · · Score: 1

    Does this mean the jobs are washing back over the Pacific? But... I only got replaced by an Asian worker being paid one tenth what I was for a third the quality of work a half a year ago! Guess my vacation is over...
