What the fuck are you smoking? Toyota, Nissan, Kia, Volkswagon, BMW, and others are manufacturing cars in the US just fine without union help. Or maybe you live in Mexico or Canada, because Ford, GM, and Chrysler build cars there and import them into the US.
Myspace used to run on cold fusion but switched to.NET. facebook runs on LAMP, though they have a customized MySQL and a customized linux kernel with support for the hierarchial page pinning algorithm.
bleeding money. Interesting. Let's say you had a gaping leg wound that was bleeding, well, blood. For this analogy, assume you're a hemophiliac and the bleeding won't stop on it's own accord. Would you get some blood packs and inject them into your arm? No, you'd stop the bleeding (and inject blood if needed). Raising taxes doesn't stop the bleeding; cutting spending does.
correction: just the regular QNAP 409 (I thought the pro had more memory). The $100 difference is NFS support, which doesn't matter since the first thing I'll do is put debian on it.
I've been looking at the QNAP 409Pro for a while (I wish the price would drop on it a bit). The limited memory on my slug prevents me from doing a lot of fun stuff with it:/
You can complain about cut and paste or how the iphone is locked down or too expensive or doesn't run linux, but it's been a real donkey punch to the industry, and even rival companies acknowledge (and applaud) it for raising the bar (at least in the US).
In windows land, I run apps from the quick launch bar, hit win-R and type it in (which only works for some apps), or fumble around the start menu. In OS X, I run apps from dock (like the quick launch bar) or from spotlight (command-space, then type in a couple letters). Personally, it's generally faster to use spotlight as a launcher since it's entirely keyboard based.
The Chrysler of today isn't the Chrysler of 1979. Mercedes/Dahmler bought them, realized it was a huge mistake, and sold them to Cerebrus. Cerebrus basically buys companies, breaks them apart, and resells the pieces. GM and Ford have ownership stakes in "foreign" auto companies. GM and Ford have an international presence. Chrysler has been stripped of those things. At this point, bailing out Chrysler isn't saving jobs, it's saving a capital management company that made a bad bet.
I went Apple lat year after playing around with the vista RCs and seeing that MS was going in a direction I didn't want to go. I've previously spent 3-4 years using Linux (as well as Solaris and FreeBSD) on the desktop, but considered OS X much more suitable (and the I prefer the underlying Cocoa/Core* technology).
That's a great point. It's a shame the moderators are racist. People want to buy XP. Microsoft needs new leadership that provides what the customer wants.
not irrelevant in the sense that it's dead, but irrelevant in the sense that it's a has-been. Ruby, Python, and PHP have overtaken it. Consider:
In Perl 6, ``->'' is being replaced by ``.''. And ``.'' is being replaced by ``_''. Why? Because everybody else (Python, Java, C#, etc) uses ``.'' to dereference.
Perl is no longer a leader, it's a follower. Monkey See, Monkey. That's the sort of cargo cult programming you'd expect from PHP.
Vista was version 6, too. Maybe Perl 7 will be better.

I promised not to use yahoo.
filesystems are nerdy.
Are you a retard? If it's a secret vote, neither the corporate bosses nor union/peer pressure apply.
What the fuck are you smoking? Toyota, Nissan, Kia, Volkswagon, BMW, and others are manufacturing cars in the US just fine without union help. Or maybe you live in Mexico or Canada, because Ford, GM, and Chrysler build cars there and import them into the US.
You didn't even mention inheriting the job because your daddy (or husband) was president.

watching steve jobs use/demo interface builder is worth the risk of a rickroll.

You can buy an NSLU2 for $5 less and get 2 USB ports.
iPod touch much?
Congress would (s)elect a President in that case. (That would also happen in the case of an electorial tie).
This is a country where the congress can reject a bill (auto bailouts for example) just to see the president go ahead and do it anyhow.
