GM expects price of gas to fall, blames media for misconceptions

May 4th 2006 3:25PM (Autoblog)
Wagoner is crap. The market trend has turned away from mid-large SUV's. Wagoner will say anything inane to get people to think that prices will go down hoping they will buy GM's new SUV's. The reality is that American Companies overinvested in their traditional market - trucks and suvs. They left compacts/sub compacts to the foreign competition. Oops! With the modernization of China (and other parts of the world), don't expect gas prices to go down as billions of people buy small cars (not from GM).

Samsung YP-Z5 "nano killer" reviewed

Mar 7th 2006 1:03PM (Engadget)
I agree with #19. This Samsung does have more features than the ipod - however, features most people don't use. Having an ipod means you get access to all accessories plus itunes. Itunes is very well marketed to the non-geek crowd...the debate we should all be having is can someone create an itunes killer...that will drive adoption away from ipods. Think MTV and Urge, with tight integration in WMP 11.

Anti-Chinese discrimination in WoW

Jan 17th 2006 2:17PM (Joystiq)
"In the eyes of the Japanese players, everyone else is rude, self-serving, arrogant, and offensive (whether any of this is true is in the eye of the beholder, and I'm not going to argue it one way or the other). They are used to people behaving a certain way in a group environment, like MMOs, and are shocked, confused and offended when people do not behave that way. That's why most JP players in FFXI only seek other JP players to form a party. The language barrier can cause problems at higher levels, but the auto-translator in FFXI works fairly well - they just don't want to deal with "rude people."

I agree Americans are rude, self-serving, arrogant, and offensive - in comparison to Asian societies. This has more to do with genetics and the difference in testerone levels in the two races. In particular whites vs asians. Principally, most whites in America descended from the gallic races (barbarians) in Europe who were extremely vicious. That's why Rome didn't last longer. Also, that's why Japan and China rate as the last two countries in frequency of sex/month versus America and Australia. Testerone levels, my friends! Also explains, why Americans like FPS shooters so much.

=P Let's change the subject...
