Cause I’m sick of the bullshit:
Headline: GM, Chrysler seek billions more, to cut more jobs . Gee, what a surprise! They have Not responded to my offer to run their companies for $50k/yr. No bennies.
Headline: Clinton seeks to improve US image with Muslims . Sure. Send a Woman to a region that treats their women like possessions. That’ll get a lot done. Muslim TV exec accused of beheading wife in NY . See…
Headline: Animal experts are baffled by chimp attack . Duh! Even if you were another Chimp you probably wouldn’t know the why of it. Hey, y’all, Humans trying to understand why Animals do things is, well, stupid. We can’t even understand our own species yet…
Headline: Recession could lengthen the twilight of dial-up . Duh! I have a friend that lives up the corner from us. He’s 70 and brings in (probably) less than $200/mo. I’m trying to get him to give up his land-line ($25/mo) and go with Internet from WaveBroadband ($25/mo) and I’d buy him a MagicJack for phone. He likes his "free" Juno account though and has a bit of trouble with "new" technology. Maybe I’ll spring for the $25 for the first couple of months to let him try it…
Headline: How to go from analog to digital TV . Read it. It’s one of the better decisions that we’ve made.
Headline: Tiny search engine alleges Google abuses its power . A bit more explanation: "A would-be challenger to Google Inc. said Tuesday it is suing the Internet search leader for alleged abuses that include illegally rigging its prices to thwart potential competitive threats." Now, I’m just wondering how someone can "illegally rig" it’s prices to thwart potential competition? How in the hell can a company be sued for setting the prices for it’s own product/service? Isn’t the purpose of running a business to set your prices just low enough to bring in customers but just high enough to make a profit at it? All I do know is that if all this keeps up, I’m going to sue IBM & Microsoft because my Home Network can in no way compete with their infrastructure and they’re engendering feelings of helplessness and inadequacy in me daily…
Headline: Teens Crank Up iPod Volume, Risk Hearing Damage . Duh! I mean; What?
Headline: Intel Sues Nvidia as CPU Power Moves To GPU . Moving the video/image processing from the CPU to the GPU is bad, how? Intel needs to get it’s head out of it’s ass and create their own video cards if they’re worried about this.
Headline: FCC Fields 28K DTV-Related Calls . I think I’ve figured this out. All the people that haven’t a clue about the DTV switch over didn’t know about it because they haven’t been watching tv! That’s gotta be it because they all can’t be that stupid. And if they haven’t been watching tv they don’t need to switch to DTV anyway…
