"I'm not to blame, I always vote for the guy that promises to be an honest regular Joe just like me!"

Sarcasm aside, I do sort of agree with you. I don't blame the voters for voting the guy in, they are ALL corrupt, and even if they weren't, it's not like there's any way we'd know until it's too late. They don't have any real need to commit to their promises and it's not like they're up front and tell us they're going to screw us over. Seriously, blaming people for not knowing the future is utter horse shit. You should be ashamed of yourself for believing what you're saying without giving it one ounce of thought.

What I do blame the voters for is we never, for lack of a better term, fire any of these people. Just imagine what a few recall elections would do.

Why? Adding two randomly-named weekdays instead of one week sounds awkward.

Seriously... The UK isn't part of the world. They even drive on the wrong side of the road. You can't trust a system that is that much fucked up ;-)

You drive on the wrong side of the road. How messed up is that?

When questioned about this metal ball hurtling through an unsuspecting person's house, Adam Savage would only reply with: 'No comment'.

Well that sucks, I was hoping for another Mythbusters mishap.

Wow.

There was a Dilbert cartoon where Wally printed off a document for the PHB and handed it to him. The boss said "Great, but I asked you to print these in color!" "Oh, well Black and White technically are colors so... oh... I see!"

In the last frame Dilbert asked Wally "and that satisfied his need to make unnecessary changes?" And Wally goes "Yep! The best part is while I was talking to the boss, the color copies were printing!"

One thing you should consider, though, is her supervisor will likely see how she's a team player . She may (and yes, reality doesn't always work this way I'll concede) end up getting a raise or avoiding a layoff.

Having your coworkers like you is a good thing.

You'll save a lot more battery if you undervoltage your CPU. Eg. My Galaxy Nexus by default runs at 1350mV. I can run it perfectly fine on 1200mV, even overclocked to 1,4GHz. By my (possibly completely wrong) logic, the faster the CPU runs, the shorter time it spends in higher voltage states. Thus, overclocking and keeping the same voltage (or even undervoltage) actually saves energy.

(Of course, underclocking also achieves the same since the voltage is lowered automatically. But then I've got a slower device rather than a faster device, while using more or less the same amount of juice.)

Just to give you all a sense of scale, the Millineum Falcon would have to be 24 times faster to reach it!

You don't see how stopping traffic to let people through isn't a huge difference?

Because I don't want to hit one.

Yes, they do.

Nobody said 'causeless'. I can't believe the ignorance you're displaying here! Are you over-zealously defending your point or are you really so inexperienced at life that you don't understand this topic? I really hope it's the former.

Because the number of accidents is an integer and not a boolean.

Oh that's classic, man. Hahaha. Do you see the world 'preventable' all over the article you sent me? Think about it.
