As a regular smoker I actually agree. I hate seeing people smoke and shit before doing something that requires coordination, planning or thought. Drivers in CA I'm looking at you. Yes there are people who are functional enough to get by high but that doesn't mean they are "optimal" when they are doing it.

Now there is a whole category of things I'm happy to do high. Shopping, eating junk food, watching reality TV... all great high activities... just not particularly productive in the first place.

"Give a female who cooks a blob of leftovers or dough and she can pick the correct container that will hold the container without waste or a lot of air space. Most men can't.Give a female a pile of dishes and a dishwasher vs a male with the same dishes and dishwasher and the average female will more effectively load the dishwasher than the male." lol so some women are good at putting away leftovers and loading the dishwashers... ergo all must be.. and this is proof of better spacial reasoning... Me thinks the ops own reasoning is flawed. Also calling women a "female" instead of a woman makes you sound like a Ferengi just a heads up.

Hundreds of thousands may honestly be pushing it. I've worked in customer surveying (not the multiple choice type surveys either) and I assure you there aren't many people complaining about this outside of /. Thats why Motorola is more then happy to say to take your business elsewhere. Its not worth it to them to vs. locking their platform down.

Hank Chien Reclaims Donkey Kong High Score 122

An anonymous reader writes "If you can say anything about Hank Chien, it's that he evidently doesn't take defeat very well. Sure, he knew not so deep down that his Donkey Kong World Record score wouldn't last forever, but he couldn't have foreseen that it would have been toppled so quickly. Twice, even. But he also knew that more Kong competition would be coming his way; namely Richie Knucklez Kong-Off in March. So Hank had something to prove, and prove he did. Scoring a massive 1,068,000 points in less than three hours, Hank has officially reclaimed the high score in Nintendo’s 1981 arcade classic."

"Taxing fuel might mean the end of suburbia, but I don't think people would miss it."

Thats a VERY VERY VERY incorrect assumption. I'm not giving up suburban living without a very harsh fight. I can guarantee I won't be alone in that fight either.
