They are not trying to save on the shipping cost from country of manufacture to country where it is sold. Shaving just a few ounces off a product can have big savings in overall shipping costs when manufactured in large quantities.
... it would dark, and I would most likely be eaten by a grue.
But I will stock up on water, non-perishable foods, and plenty of ammo just in case it hits Mars, throws up a big cloud of "Martian Zombie Dust" which rains down on Earth causing a horrible outbreak of flesh/brain eating zombies.
Don't assume this is a racist situation, based on spots arrangement or something so trivial.
This is obviously a division based on politics. I am sure once the primaries in the US are over, they will be down to two, three at most "subspecies" of giraffe.
I mean come on, would you want to mate with a Hillary supporter?
I hear that if you upset the new Toyota robot, it will rip out your guts and string you with them. After which it rips off your leg or arm and uses it as a bow to play its new toy violin!
I remember reading that some forms of dyslexia are language specific. I found it interesting that some Asian people who are very intelligent and good at their own language, had trouble with learning English. A person who is dyslexic in English may not be impaired using a symbolic language such as Japanese.
I am not sure if any of this will be helpful, but I remember finding it interesting myself.
Is it necessary for privacy for people to have the ability to be anonymous on the internet?
If IPv6 or any new protocol ever did take off, would people object to each person having their very own assigned IP address. Much like you get a driver's license, getting your own IP would be a big accomplishment.
I imagine it would be quite easy for people to misuse this new "unique" identifier much like social security numbers are misused.
The internet is about a public sharing of information. If you want privacy or even an expectation of it, then use encryption. The most likely attack on privacy will be an attack on encryption use by ordinary people.
I hope the sensors work better than the ones in my HP printers. While it is may be interesting all the things they can detect, jam in tray 3, under fuser, etc. They really annoy the hell out of the users.
Well, I would ramble on more about voltage flux warnings etc, but I have to run and change my print toner... I have less than 1000 pages left!

Took a web dev class at the uni. Writing CGI in C++ is so much more painful than doing it in Perl!
We are just clipping Tux's wings a little bit. It is not like he can fly anyway.
So who gets the ring?
Interesting article about what happens when engagements are called off. Note the value of "used" diamond rings.

You can't even tell me if his cat is alive or not!
if you use the pig's snout as a lever to make the bread go down, you have a shitty design.
Well duh, any good Pig toaster obviously would use the pig's tail for a lever!

And people say I am a pessimist!
I must need more sleep too. I swear it said sheep too, until I got the point of them reporting headaches which set of my WTF meter.
Well, off to count cellphones in my head until I get the rest I truly need.
Wolfram labeled the function given above as Rule 2, and gave the intuitive 7-symbol representation
f(p,q,r) = (not p) and (not q) and r
Georgiadis gave a 6-symbol representation
f(p,q,r) = r and not (p or q)
In summary, Wolfram failed to simplify the equation properly, so in Georgiadis's mind, Wolfram failed it!
I hate a nit picky math professor, but is there any other kind?

Fear, long time (relative) slashdotter gets a girl, starts a family and then time stops!
Great! Just Great!
My daughter is due early May 2008... not sure what would be worse.. my wife stuck forever pregnant, baby (diapers), or her as a teenager!

... and I hear he is bringing a really big pot and a frog suit!
... "the praying mantis routine" with a bug-woman-hybrid that looks like Natasha Henstridge may be a really good deal!
What is the point in keeping the site open, it isn't like they have a new Star Trek product to promote or something.
It is all the parasites in our solar system that gives it such a good discount.
I always said it was fun to throw a clock out a high window so you could see time fly!
One must much more careful with these new atomic clocks. After time flies, they explode and destroy whole cities!

Set a man on fire, he is warm for the rest of his life!
Don't forget sudoku! Absolutely no reading required.

First thing that came to mind when I read your post:
PAAAAIIIINNNNN!!!!
