  1. Re:Do the math on New EU Rules Will Limit Vacuum Cleaners To 1600W · · Score: 0

    Horizontal-axis is called a front loader, Vertical-axis is called top loader, these are the industry specific terms for these types of washing machines. BTW, front loaders though more efficient do not nearly last as long and do not nearly have the capacity of a top loader and they seem to develop that stinky mold issue.

  3. Re: What is the best way to buy some in bulk? on 60% of Americans Unaware of Looming Incandescent Bulb Phase Out · · Score: 0

    Speak for your self, I as an American do not believe it makes any sense to ban incandescent and I too live Los Angeles. It is not right, I do not want some Chinese made overpriced LED or CFL bulb, a light bulb should cost a dollar not $20 or more. Before the ban light bubs cost me a dollar a piece now even incandescents are 4 or more apiece.

  5. Re:And the cost on San Francisco Poaching Tech Talent From Silicon Valley · · Score: 0

    I call things how they are in my point of view, right or wrong I like being as honest as i can, i do not pull punches I wish more people in business were like that. From my point of view SF is full of homeless and drug addicts, and rents that are to high for what you get and outrageous amount of parking meters and don't get me started about all those hills. I current live in East LA, east of the 710 fw, we have our problems, but we don't have a lot of homeless and there are really no parking meters, and no giant hills, and because the rents are not sky high the drug addicts can actually afford a place and there drug habit.

    Why are the companies located in an expensive city, most big corporations are located in cheap areas, if I was a big company and was hiring I would move to some out of the way area so I would not have to pay extra just so my employees can live in a small studio apt. I want them to have a good sized house, have a family, live the american dream.

    Only fucked up and crazy people live San Francisco, If I were a start up and the only thing I needed was an internet connection, I would setup in Riverside --- Palm Springs or any where in the Coachella Valley--- where office space and housing is dirt cheap. Fuck paying to live in a "hip" city, it not hip is is just disgusting and expensive.

    You are nuts, the shuttle gave us the high ground with access to space, so with out the shuttle we now have to rely on the damned Russians for access to space. We are now in 1957 and the Russians have the lead.
