  6. ... Four More Years!!! on U.S. IT jobs Down 400K Since 2001 · · Score: -1

    As I am not a USian, the only thing I can say is: Four More Years...

    No seriously. This Bush guy seems to be worse than his dad, and still USians flock to vote for him.
    - The US economy is in terible shape
    - Unemployment only rises
    - Exports are not on the rise, even though the Dollar is at the bottom of a pit.
    - In four years time the US gained lots of new enemies.
    - In the same period lots of good US friendly countries are transformed into Enemies of the US(You are either with us or against us...)
    - deficite
    and so on...

    On the other side, Bush accomplished...?
    - to capture Sadam (who off course insulted Papa Bush 15 years ago and is THE REAL terrorist threath to the US..)
    - captured and/or killed Osama's friends (which only made things worse)
    - ??
    AND STILL more than half of the USians do not see what is happening?

    Holy shit... that actually happens! It's called a "lease", and millions of people in the US agree to them every year! We gotta warn those poor bastards!

    eh... please do not. Those leasing nuts enable the carindustry to innovate (not!)

    and: at the end of the lease the car goes back to the company... which sells it!

    I'll Blamm M$ any day....

    but the fact Windows does not handle buggy drivers very well should be accounted to MICROSOFT alone.

  24. Use of wipers on Beagle 2 Failure Theories · · Score: 0, Funny

    [in some way I mean to be serious too..]

    Use of wipers or brushes would be a Russian solution to the problem.

    True American spirited solutions would require a dual processor system to control a robot arm using at least:
    1 a hover device;
    2 2 cameras to register 3d;
    3 a brush;

    Instead I would opt for the use of "Quick and Brite" the difficulty here is to apply it on the panels. Best way arround that is to ship "Quick and Brite" complete with the TellSell presenter guy...

    oh... and in Russia wipers wipe you.

  25. Upgrade for Dells: on Manufacturing 1 PC Takes 1.8 Tons Of Raw Material · · Score: -1

    Collect the water from your morningshower and use it to upgrade your pc by funneling it through the cdromdrive.

    Upgrading this way is not only fast it is also costeffective. yBy doing this for a month you will have upgraded your standard Dell system to about 200% of it's capacity.

    For extra RAM you only need to add half a log of rainforrest timber a day for a month.

    By dumping it in oil you will enlarge HDD. You can use the same process as with water.

    Beware: you should not be smoking during upgrades!
