    VW Used Software In 482K Diesels To Skirt US Clean-Air Rules

    $18 Billion makes sense to me, if it is retaliation for the ridiculously high fines put upon a few American companies by EU governments. As far as VW not paying it, just put 50-100% import tax on VW cars until it's paid off. Either they trash their stock value by having to bow out of the US...

    Best Cities For Video Game Development Jobs

    Santa Monica too. So, it's LA by a mile with 60 shops. Next is San Francisco with 46 Bellevue is right across Lake Washington from Seattle, so give Seattle 44 shops, tying it with Austin. After those 4 hubs you might as well say "and the rest"

    Twitter Apologizes For Hosting Staff Frat Party

    The author of the article is a troll, and you are falling for it. She has seen the anger generated by, and at, "outragists" and is turning it into clicks for her articles by being even more ridiculous. The only way to stop these people is to not give them your time and attention. Recognize a...

    On a related note, Steam is now offering refunds on games (within the rules it spells out)

    Electricity Isn't Good For Your Sleep Habits

    For everyone who didn't read the article, which I'm guessing is everyone, as usual, it is talking about not even having electric lighting. So, if you have nothing to do and are forced to be in total darkness, you tend to sleep more. Thank God someone did this study. Money well spent.

    Comcast: Customer Service Will “Be Our Best Product”

    Had a Comcast tech over to fix an issue a couple weeks ago. From the sound of it, you have nailed it exactly. He said they are bringing the call centers back to the USA sometime in 2015. So, new vendor, yay.

    Robots Are Starting To Break The Law

    Congrats on being the only poster so far who understood the point! (opening the discussion of "impersonal responsibility", if I'm allowed to coin a phrase) Still, I'm not sure your solution is ideal. It removes intent from the equation. That could put a serious damper on innovation on AI...

    The Real Value Of $100 In Each State

    Ugh, I think it's depressing to see so many desperately unhappy people. I can't imagine what awful lives these people must lead to be so filled with rage. Tho, I'm sure they are all millionaires, with beautiful wives and kids... on the Internet. :)

    Wolfenstein The New Order Easter Egg

    That's not the "original" Castle Wolfenstein.. The original can be found here: http://www.virtualapple.org/castlewolfensteindisk.html Bet there's not too many other people on here who remember that one. (Yes, I played it back in the 80's) I wonder why they didn't include it as an Easter...

    Russian Satellite Launch Ends in Embarrassing Flames

    Or your space station? Yah, I'm not really worried about it right now either. It's 20 years down the line when the same type of corporate deadhead that ruins every American company clogs up middle and upper management at Space X. They'll hire the former captain of the Costa Concordia to fly a...

    TurboTax Maker Campaigning Against Free, Simple Tax Filing

    Everything you just said exactly correlates to the private section too: CEOs of large corporations can't be voted out by the general public and they retire with golden parachutes not matter how badly they screw up. Plugging along and doing a poor job is definitely not limited to the public...

    Protesters Show-Up At Home Of Google Car Engineer

    That if you call out the individual, instead of the anonymous blob of a "company", you are going to have a much more powerful effect. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

    Protesters Show-Up At Home Of Google Car Engineer

    I remember a journalist calling out the man behind a fake console called "The Phantom." It was very effective. Now, who was that? My memory is foggy. :)

    Yahoo Ends ‘Working from Home’ Option

    Everything that happens at a major corporation happens for 1 reason: someone in management needs a line item for their resume to try move on to a new higher-paid management job. It doesn't matter if the decision makes sense or not. And the next person to fill the job will just reverse the...
