Intel offers big bucks for black women

Master Rod

No one is dead set against women in IT. IT is a place where logic rules. Understand that women bring all sorts of baggage into the equation. My boyfriend left me, I'm pregnant, I can't lift this 10 pound box, stop looking at me, does this dress make me look fat, you like chocolate, I'm looking for a spouse, and on ,and on.....I got a headache coming on....

So if I call someone an asshole, I'm causing someone distress, and can be guilty of some infraction of the law? Was this snippet of law written by an asshole to protect assholes?

Re: "right to freedom of expression" @Doug S

We don't cuddle criminals like you Brits do, We terminate their worthless life because they have done unspeakable horror, and are of no use to a civilized society. The problem here in Texas is that we don't use it enough. Our right to own and carry guns has resulted in less crime in the last few years. Break into a home, you get shot. Break into a vehicle, you get shot. Harass someone, you could get shot. So, let's mind our manners shall we....

AMD-AMMIT! Hundreds face axe at chip maker as PC, graphics crash

Master Rod

Buaahahahaha! He said Celeron! ? Buahahahaha....cough, cough. Chortle .....gasp..Good one.

No Vision at AMD

Bottom line, vision is lacking at AMD. Buy a PC manufacturer, and use your hardware. Apple got good by selecting good hardware to match their software, and vice versa. It would also give AMD other avenues to peddle it's wares. I use AMD exclusively. I get the most bang for the buck. Celeron is trash. Although, I still have an Asus mobo with an Atom 330 dual core cpu with Nvidia Ion graphics with a raid 0 array running Opensuse. Yep, AMD needs to quit sulking and get on the ball. The world is full of opportunity.

As an IT Specialist, all I can say is they stole the money. You don't handle millions of dollars of other peoples money with a shitty computer infrastructure. With no internet security! This was done on purpose. Don't you see? It was a hellova scam since the beginning. We will now have a good black market for these coins. OK Russians, hand over the coins.

Intel shutters BRAND NEW chip factory as PC market storm rages

Master Rod

Re: Its a mess on Intel "et al's" own making...

Intel has been nickel and dime ing customers forever. They have a crappy processor so next year, they add a little more speed. The following year, they add another core. The year after that, well, you get the point. Where the heck is my 8 core PC? That would be a hit for business. Instead, you try and peddle broken SX chips at a ridiculous price, or you give us some stupid nomenclature that has no meaning i3, i5, i7. i3 is dual core but so is i5, but only the top i5 might be a quad core, or maybe an i7. Yeah, confusing enough to say, "I think I will try AMD instead. Sorry, I'm not buying your sales pitch...

So you ran the company into the ground. Made it easy for a take over. Sold it to HP to save your hide. You are one despicable dirt bag! I could have run the company better than you. Anybody could have. I loved my Palm Pre, and I was about to get the tablet. Not any more. Damn, I mis my Pre.

Master Rod

Re: This is all too familiar.

I really do use Linux! OpenSUSE, in fact. Have I been problem free? No! But a lot was due to my inexperience at the time. After being tortured by Red Hat, openSUSE pretty much converted me since ver. 6.3, over 12 years ago. Besides, it is always best not to touch a 3-5 year old pc. The HD is about ready to crater, and it usually happens just when you have everything about right. No sir. No Mas!

Re: This is all too familiar.

There are no truer words written than what you state Lars. I have been a Technologist for 30 years. Yes, even before computers. What we have here are Cave people wanting the newest technology without the brains to run it. Attoo the caveman is bitching " Ohhh, someone help Attoo. Attoo need smart phone for work." The Company gives Attoo a smart phone. "Ohhh, someone help Attoo work phone. Attoo need computer for work". So the company provides a computer for Attoo's use. "Ohhh, someone help Attoo how computer work". This damned cave dweller has just commandeered, and inundated the entire IT staff. It is best to steer clear of these type people, and not waste your time. You will not get paid, and if you do, the paltry sum will not equal the years of torture you will have to endure. Been There!

Tesla's Elon Musk v The New York Times, Round 2

Master Rod

Re: Foolish response.

And the only way for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing. Well, Elon Musk is a good man, and he did something to right a wrong. Broder should be writing about school plays, or girls soccer, not a review of a most admirable care, the Tesla S. He is woefully over his head.

Master Rod

Re: Foolish response.

Odd bad news does not happen. It is manufactured. Elon is merely providing data from the cars computer that correlates, substantiates, and verifies that what he says is correct(truth), and what the low rent reporter says is incorrect(lie). Besides, computers don't lie. People do.

Master Rod

Re: The Balance Of Evidence

Computers don't lie! Reporters do. Wow! Did you even finish school?

Master Rod
Thumb Up

There are many idiot journalists out there....

And Broder is one of them. I do recommend that Tesla not give out their cars for tests by biased individuals and journalists. That is why I dropped my subscriptions to Motor Trend, Road and Track, etc. Too much Bias and Whinning! Ohhh my God, it is not as fast as a Ferrari, nor as comfortable as a Bentley, nor as pretty as a Maserati. Nope, but my VW Jetta is fast -130mph, comfortable contoured seating, and elegantly simple design. These journalists are as lame, and arrogant as they come. To hell with them. Keep up the good fight Elon and Tesla. Hope to be able to afford one or two of your vehicles soon.

Master Rod

Viva Tesla!

Elon! You're a genius! Broder! your an idiot! There! That is the definitive. I would love for a university to bestow an Honorary PhD to Mr. Musk. Any man who can cover his tracks as he did, did damn well at research. Congratulations Elon and Tesla. As for the New York Times, what? You trying to over take Fox News in the bullshit department? Well, you still have a ways to go. As soon as I can afford it, I'm getting an S for me and the X for my wife. Woo! Hoooo! No more gasoline bills!

Master Rod

Re: Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk arguments are pathetic

Your comment is pathetic. You have already made up your mind to speak negatively of the Tesla S. Yes! You need to charge it full before use. You don't say, well, I'm only going to the store, then go on a joy ride with the vehicle half discharged, then complain it left you are out in the woods somewhere! Only an idiot would go half cocked in a half charged EV. Stick to what ever it is you know about, and go drive your gas hog. Good Day.!

HP workers halt legal fight against bosses over 29,000 job cuts

Master Rod

The only thing they are doing is stealing the money. Always a crisis, bigger bonuses, money exchanged hands, rotten deals made. Remember Palm? Jon Rubinstein destroyed the company and sunk it so low, HP could buy it for a song. but being big corporations with big money, there was a lot of money being thrown around for a company that was down. Then Ole Jon gets hired by HP. When they find out what a piece of work he is, they fire him. There is something truly wrong with this company. The board and C's look only after themselves instead of the investors, and workers. So in reality, to hell with HP!

Linux Laptop

The best thing I ever did with a laptop is format the hard drive and install openSuse Linux. Once I got the graphics driver from Nvidia, all went well. I have had it now for 3-4 years. Presently running openSuse 12.2, with an addon 22 inch screen. Although dual-core, 64 bit, and 2gig of ram for only about $300, I would like to upgrade to a quad-core AMD processor, and 4-6 gig of ram. I have never had to defrag, antivirus check, or clean the hard drive. All in all, and Linux is an excellent OS when set up right the first time. Enjoy..

'Brit Bill Gates' defends his honour in open letter to HP board

HP - Unreal

HP, what a sham of a company. They have the worst board on the planet. HP has become synonymous as a den of uneducated crooks, and thieves. We are out of the hardware business, and into the software business. Oops! Wrong. We are in the hardware business trying to build up the software business, but just bought the Palm phone business. Rats, we trashed Palm, the phone business, and bought a software business. Nuts, the software business is nothing but code on paper not worth much really. Hmmm, Did I say we still make crap hardware? I would love to run the company for one week. I can guarantee a roller coaster ride with excellent results.

Re: Minimum Legal Payout@Ironclad

Yep, typical British....Overpaid executives that walk around mumbling incoherently with their hands behind their backs...What is the point, and who cares. RIM makes some pretty obsolete products anyway. Maybe they should take a look at the Galaxy Note II. Now there is some real Samsung genius...
