    Facebook Solves A Crime

    So let me get this straight. When the police ASK THE VICTIM if they know the owner of the truck, and the victim goes and looks them up on facebook, that's somehow shitty police work? No, wait ma'am, don't pull out that smartphone! Leave it to us, we'll canvas the neighborhood and start the...

    Texas Warns IBM of Outsourcing Contract Failures

    Anything IBM is a bloated world of horrible crapware. But, why wouldn't it be? The slower it runs the more (IBM) hardware you have to buy, and it's not like you can just leave IBM. Once you're infected with IBM it's either a full recoding of your software or more IBM.

    Gizmodo Works with DA in Lost iPhone 4 Probe

    They knowingly received goods without the consent of the lawful owner. That is theft or receiving stolen property, depending on how the DA wants to push it. They then revealed trade secrets, violating the Uniform Trade Secrets Act and documented the entire thing on the Internet for all to see.

    PCs Beat Apple in Summer Price Wars

    I love the idiots who claim "build quality" as a good reason to spend 3 times as much on a laptop. Nothing says a good deal like a durable turd.

    StarCraft 2 to go 3D in Post Release Patch

    Why does it have to be an advantage? Lots of gaming revolves around graphics, and for those that like 3D graphics the game looks better with properly dimensioned levels. The game is already rendered in 3D, all they have to do is do the rendering at two slightly different camera angles and they...

    StarCraft 2 to go 3D in Post Release Patch

    It isn't zero depth. It might be birds-eye view, but the terrain isn't flat and there are flying units.

    Tesla's IPO Speeds Past Expectations

    And how big is the $100,000 toy market? There's something like 10M millionaires in the world. A company with a market cap well under $1B is tiny in comparison the the market.

    Foxconn Is Installing Safety Nets on Buildings?

    You're still missing the point though. What grouping of people could 800,000 factory workers WOULDN'T expect to have a similar rate? Factory workers 18-25? Definitely will find suicide there. No-collar labourers? Suicide is normal there too. East Asians? Well, they have lots of suicide too...

    Foxconn Is Installing Safety Nets on Buildings?

    Nice theory. Except 1 problem. Starvation is a direct result of financial position. Suicide is not. Rich people commit suicide. Poor people commit suicide. Young people commit suicide. Old people commit suicide. Mental or physical health issues, drug problems, and relationship trouble are the...

    Foxconn Is Installing Safety Nets on Buildings?

    You're missing the point. The suicide rate at the Foxconn factory is no higher then the average suicide rate around the world. Somewhere between 500,000 and 750,000 people kill themselves every year, aside from the attention-whoring media there really isn't a story here.
