Chips_B_Malroy_ | So this 900 million writedown, its not the last one. | Jul 27 00:23 |
Chips_B_Malroy_ | Also, expect Surface RT/2 to be another failure and eventually writedown. | Jul 27 00:24 |
Chips_B_Malroy_ | Even at $99 the RT is not worth anything. | Jul 27 00:27 |

TechrightsBot-tr | Not a Diaspora post? | Jul 27 14:46 |
DaemonFC | I gave low marks to the police and snow removal. I mentioned that there are no grocery stores in a 3 mile radius. I mentioned that the road I live on is in severe disrepair and has a lot of potholes that need patched. | Jul 27 14:46 |
DaemonFC | It asks if I think the neighborhood will improve or decline in the next three years. I said I think it will decline because the area has fewer good jobs every year, and because of a general trend of tax hikes and fewer public services. | Jul 27 14:47 |
DaemonFC | I gave high marks to our local library an general safety of people living in the neighborhood. | Jul 27 14:48 |
DaemonFC | Despite the long wait for police response, a lot of people in the area have guns, so if their home was broken into they'd just shoot the invader. | Jul 27 14:49 |
DaemonFC | I didn't put that part down, but the criminals know this and it keeps crime down despite the bad police response time. | Jul 27 14:50 |
DaemonFC | It's a little disturbing that a lot of areas have police response times of a half hour or more now because of budget cuts. | Jul 27 14:50 |
DaemonFC | The states doing this pass those stand your ground laws instead. | Jul 27 14:51 |
DaemonFC | In other words "Just shoot them because it doesn't cost us anything.". | Jul 27 14:51 |
DaemonFC | One thing that Congress and Obama did that I approve of was the energy efficiency tax credits. | Jul 27 14:53 |
DaemonFC | Those tax credits are one of the reasons this apartment complex is investing in energy efficiency. | Jul 27 14:54 |

schestowitz | A lot of chemtrial proponents push a similar theory to that of fluoride phobic people that claim the government is trying to deliberately poison the population. Some of the vaccination phobia is similar to that too, and to a lesser degree pesticides.. The problems there exist, but they're poorly framed. | Jul 27 19:02 |
