Isambard_Princeschestowitz[TR2], I talked to that reporter for about an hour about credit cards.Jan 09 00:24
Isambard_PrinceI even quoted a banker about banking products. "It's free until you make a mistake, and then it will cost you dearly."Jan 09 00:24
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, ^Jan 09 00:25
MinceR:>Jan 09 00:26
Isambard_PrinceI sort of walked her through the Credit CARD Act and how banks went from about 7-8% interest in the 90s to 20-40% now.Jan 09 00:28
Isambard_PrinceI said you can't really get ahead of these people because they'll always make money doing it some other way.Jan 09 00:29
Isambard_PrinceEvery 10 or 20 years there's some new law, but they only box in like 2-3 of the money makers, and so the banks turn to something else. And for every defeat the banks get through the law, they get 20-30 wins through the courts.Jan 09 00:29

Isambard_PrinceIt kept happening until the plant was shut down, an entire plant that employed over 1500 people.Jan 09 19:33
Isambard_PrinceEventually the only person working in the entire plant was the HR person who stayed on for 3 more years to handle benefits and COBRA and the pension stuff and everything.Jan 09 19:33
Isambard_PrinceShe said she'd come to work in an empty plant and clock in and handle her own paycheck and then she handled the layoff paperwork for herself too.Jan 09 19:34
Isambard_PrinceThat must have been depressing.Jan 09 19:34

Isambard_PrinceCome work in an empty factory meant for 1500 people.Jan 09 19:34
Isambard_PrinceIt's totally quiet, nobody else is in the entire building.Jan 09 19:35
Isambard_PrinceAnd you have to be there 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week, for three years.Jan 09 19:35

Isambard_PrinceKnowing that in the end you're responsible for firing yourself.Jan 09 19:35
Isambard_PrinceI think her name was Janet.Jan 09 19:35
Isambard_PrinceI remember dad talking abut her.Jan 09 19:36
Isambard_Princeschestowitz[TR2], The French really mishandled RCA.Jan 09 19:37
Isambard_PrinceThey had no interest in competing with Sony.Jan 09 19:37
Isambard_PrinceThey figured they could just fire all the Americans, not invest in any new designs, and make the same stuff forever in Mexico.Jan 09 19:37
Isambard_PrinceAnd so they built a new plant for picture tubes in Mexico and then 7-8 years later nobody was buying TVs with tubes in them.Jan 09 19:38
Isambard_PrinceEven Samsung built some tube sets that had an HD picture.Jan 09 19:38
Isambard_PrinceAnd it was a much better picture than the LCD/LED TVs, but they were VERY heavy.Jan 09 19:38
Isambard_PrinceI could barely lift one when I was in my 20s.Jan 09 19:39

Isambard_PrinceI didn't get rid of it because it broke. I got rid of it because I was tired of carrying it.Jan 09 19:41
Isambard_PrinceIt must have weighed almost 150 pounds.Jan 09 19:41
Isambard_PrinceIf I still had it I would not have been able to carry it now for sure. I'd end up back in surgery.Jan 09 19:42

Isambard_PrinceFirefox is anemic now because they sat back and made it spyware and adware and didn't really innovate in the browser and did nothing, while Google paid them to stand back and let it happen.Jan 09 19:52
Isambard_PrinceWhen you have very bad people running a company that are only concerned about their own paycheck, not the long term health of the company, things like this can happen, because they'll be kept fat and happy on a steady diet of Google's money, until they're totally irrelevant.Jan 09 19:53
Isambard_PrinceThey tore a page out of Microsoft's playbook.Jan 09 19:55
Isambard_PrinceBack in 1997 when Apple was worthless and almost dead, Microsoft bought up over $140 million (I think, something like that) of non-voting shares.Jan 09 19:55
Isambard_PrinceThey said "People could choose to buy Apple." at their antitrust trial.Jan 09 19:56
Isambard_PrinceAnd the bailout came with strings, like making Internet Explorer for the Mac the default web browser, which in itself furthered their abusive monopoly and hurt Netscape.Jan 09 19:56
Isambard_PrinceUp until that point if you wanted a browser on a Mac, you got Netscape because Microsoft wasn't making a browser for it.Jan 09 19:57
Isambard_PrinceI didn't like IE, so I never used it regularly, I used Netscape, but the same thing that happened to Netscape is happening to Firefox. Jan 09 19:57
Isambard_PrinceIncompatible sites. Stuff liket hat.Jan 09 19:57

Isambard_PrincePeople stop testing in Gecko.Jan 09 19:57
