They accidentally messed up one time. In 2000 Honda made the 1st gen Insight. A car with a manual transmission made entirely out of aluminum and will never rust. 68mpg city 74mpg highway right on the factory sticker.

I average north of 60mpg daily driven year round in mine and 26years old yet looks brand new because aluminum doesnâ(TM)t rust.

You just care that the money goes to the rich guys spoiled kid from the Ford family who never works and gets DUIs yet magically runs marketing years later. You want them to get the money not the rich Chinese spoiled kid who never works and will get DUIs and somehow still rise in the company.

Neither case involves normal Americans getting money. No they are the ones cared so much for that they are restricted from buying the cheap affordable car they need. To you they should walk and suffer more right?

Comment Office sports betting was my favorite example (Score 3, Informative) 57

Office sports betting is illegal yet at every big company I worked for these betting sheets went around every season with management and the rest distributing them. This was my favorite example of how white collar crime is treated compared to blue collar.

At every level the people who should stop it instead felt it was a harmless office game and thus not worthy of any application of the rules. One dude was dropping over a grand on these while his kids went without coats. Like a closeted gambler and he was brought right into this as if sanctioned by the company.

Yet in other cases petty offenses of lameness would be enforced because âoeit is the law and itâ(TM)s out of my handsâ.

Watching them sports bet on company time and passing betting squares around conference rooms told me all I needed to know about fairness.

Comment Slowly restricting who can be a developer (Score 3, Insightful) 53

Just another screw in the slow eventual requirement to beg the government to be a developer. This whole wild west of people using free speech to write their own applications to represent their own interests or bypass monetized-locked-down functionality by writing their own just couldn't last for long.

First it was just to sell stuff "for tax reasons". Then the free apps got the same rules, now side-loading is getting the same rules.... Eventually I expect to be in breach of some law just by having a compiler and the skills to use it.

How DARE I right....

Oh great, now we can hear Sam make 20 MORE public announcements and flap his gums some more to keep everyone looking at them.

It was crazy how quickly once they were made to look bad by a real company he grew a voice. Like dude, where the hell were you when these deals were inked? You were there no? If not get a hold of your company, if you were, you FUCKING TRAITOR.

Now keep flapping those lips to keep people from seeing your competitor gain favor of the crowd.

Sit down, shut up, grow some balls. You spiny prick.
