Greece has the biggest Free-Shit-Army in the entire world.

this is not a workable blend of capitalism and socialism. if you are going to be communist be communist, but this "everyone sits on their ass with their hand out" shit cannot work anywhere.

awful, awful printers. we have a HP multifunction copier that takes 5-7 minutes or more to start up and self test, and if the self test finds a jam the entire process has to be restarted after clearing the jam.

and it's a piece of shit that jams all the time.

every other machine starts up in a reasonable amount of time, the old Laniers are ready in a minute or less from a cold start, and if they jam the self test takes seconds. the shitty new kyoceras start in about 2 minutes and don't self test, if there is a jam you will find out the first time you use it. the shitty little xerox soho machines (why the fuck did we get those, we buy paper by the pallet what good is a copier that uses toners the size of a beer can.)

that has to be the most useless metric of the year

Officers of the company (i.e. insiders) would naturally want to exercise their options at the highest price possible. Increasing dividends makes the stock appear more attractive to institutional investors.

When institutions buy, that increases the pressure for the price to go up (retail investors don't move a market cap like this, only the big boys do). When the price per share goes up then that's more money that the officers can collect when they exercise their free options; in this case it looks like all the strikes were no higher than around $100. Or they simply sell some of their common position into the open market. The higher the stock price, the higher the profit. Tax strategies play a huge part too.

every time I have needed it, virtalbox works fine as it is, what updates does OP want?

chrome also seems to be more fragile as far as badly behaving websites messing up it's video acceleration or audio processing.

this story is verification that despite making the right technical decisions over the last few years, RIM/Blackberry remain doomed due to utterly inept and clueless upper management.

Just to clarify, it's not just the nutty Hollywood liberal types like Jenny McCarthy spewing this nonsense. Conservative Christian churches have been railing against vaccination too. This has directly lead to outbreaks of measles:
