    HP to hire 15,000 new outsourced workers in Bangalore, India

    Remember folks, outsourcing is good for the economy!

  3. Re:I keep getting hung up on his bad references... on Uneasy Relationship Between Gender and Gaming · · Score: 1
    Strike 3 - I call bullshit on your strike 2.

    Taloon was definitely the most important and major character besides yourself (the 'chosen one')

    He had a whole chapter devoted solely to him and later in the game he was that all important 4th member to fill up your party. Not only that but you got to run his shop and sell battle axes and whatnot for insane prices.

  4. Re:Who deserves to be burned alive? on Censored Nagasaki Bomb Story Found · · Score: 1
    Forgotten history is doomed to repeat itself. The USS Arizona, if memory serves, is one of the most popular tourist magnets for Japanese tourists. Why aren't either hypocenter of the atomic bombs detonations a destination for Americans? The Japanese seem keen to remember their lessons.
    As someone who was JUST at the Hiroshima Peace Park last week, I can tell you that you are 100% wrong. Days in Tokyo went by without seeing more than a handful of Americans, yet in Hiroshima at the Peace Museum I saw dozens and dozens.

    It's definitely a major destination for tourists, without a doubt.

  5. Re:Death Star on Review: Star Wars Episode III · · Score: 1
    Man, if you had bothered to check any official Star Wars lore (aka all the official books), you'd know that that particular Death Star skeleton is only a prototype and was built in a top secret space installation and had to be weapons tested on lifeless planets.

    It wasnt until afterwards that Grand Moff Tarkin (who appeared in Episode III looking VERY much like a younger version of the actor in Episode IV) personally oversaw the construction of a full Death Star with livable quarters, ships, etc.

    ..yeah, Im THAT big of a nerd.

  6. Just another reason... on Color Laser Printers Tracking Everything You Print · · Score: 5, Interesting
    To be lazy and NOT send in your product registration card!

    I mean, seriously. How else would they know who bought it and how to get a name from that serial number? I guess maybe if the store kept your credit card info on file or something and associated it with the serial number, but how often would that happen?

    Lesson learned, if you want to print hundreds of forged checks or counterfeit bills, pay for the printer in cash!

  7. Change history... on New Video Game Recreates Kennedy Assassination · · Score: 5, Funny

    Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start JFK now has 30 lives!
