    Next Anonymous Target is Wall Street, But Not Online

    @figgus Finally someone who understands somewhat about what actually happened. These protesters are childish and wasting their time. The brunt of the responsibilty went to the politicians pushing the affordable housing act and the rating agencies who completely messed up at their jobs but you...

    Sony Reveals New PS3 for Japanese Market

    If you can't afford a PC for gaming it is very likely you are either a kid or on welfare. Most people don't have them not because the cost but just not have any knowledge of PC gaming. Consoles are only really good for a few fighters, some arcade racing, and platformers/adventure. And...

    American Airlines First Class Gets Galaxy Tabs

    Kaiser_25maybe this is the lower middle class in me, but would be nice if they went to all seats (coach included), just another thing to separate the poor from the rich lol Putting them in 20 seats is a little different than a few hundred seats. You get what you pay for in America and you earn...

    Toshiba Thrive Hits Preorder Status; Costs $430

    I looked into tablets and netbooks for a while... seriously, netbooks offer so much more for less it is hard to justify a tablet. I have plenty of disposable income sitting around but I just can't justify a tablet. It really does not offer anything a netbook can't do. Also, something about...

    Foxconn: Apple Products Are Difficult To Build

    People who work at McDonalds are not kids. They are just uterly skill less and easily replacable. They put no effort in making themselves unique and demanded by an employer and are treated as such. I also agree than not all unions are bad. There are just too many really bad ones that make it...

    Foxconn: Apple Products Are Difficult To Build

    Puggle man, CEOs for companies this large are few and far between. Their pay is so high because their responsibilities are 100x more important, risky, and potentially dangerous. The captain of the ship is always burdened with the most responsibility. Not only that but companies are in fierce...

    Foxconn: Apple Products Are Difficult To Build

    Honda plants are successful due to their culture and how they reward employees in addition to each employee having much more control and personal responsibility. There is a documentary on it. Unionized UAW employees in comparison are entitled brats who whine and do poor work. UAW was worse...

    Foxconn: Apple Products Are Difficult To Build

    To be fair the union vs management went from, "very strong man playing tug of war with a weaker man" to what it has been for well over a decade at "very strong man playing tug of war with his wife." He is put into a lose lose situation. Either he let's her win and maybe has sex that night or he...

    Foxconn: Apple Products Are Difficult To Build

    Just FYI. No american companies trust the chinese in making any part that would put the safety of the customer at risk. That is the quality the chinese provide. Most companies will outsource easy to manufacture parts. Because most electronics don't put the consumer at risk (just pisses them...

    Microsoft Shows Off Head-tracking Using Kinect

    And of couse PC is way ahead of the game again. Look up trackIR made by softpoint. They have been around for a long time and provide a much better product. I think they are on their 5th generation right now. Only problem is most games are consolized and would need to be modded to support this tech.

    Study Finds Craigslist is a ''Cesspool of Crime''

    It really is that bad. Many of the goods are stolen. I have stopped using it due to not trusting the posters. Anonymity is good for some things... but not this.

    Gamers Far Worse Drivers than Non-Gamers

    A "Good" driver and a safe driver are two different things. The people in the survey have two different definitions of a good driver. If you have manual transmission and heel-toe brake a corner successfully are you a good driver? If you have no wrecks on your record are you automatically a good...

    Four More Modern Warfare Devs Quit Infinity Ward

    This is what happens when you push a team to release a sub par product. Nobody wants their name attached to a title which underperformed. I wouldn't want to work in that type of environment either. This reminds me a restaurant that stops putting the customer first.
