Lame! Tonight my laptop battery light started flashing yellow and orange, the dreaded ‘dead battery’ light. For the last couple months the charge has been slowly getting worse. I took, a peek at when I bought this battery. Jan 29, 2009. Today’s date? Jan 30, 2010. Warranty duration? 1 year! One day over. Surely no [...]

I’m nowhere near the meat market, but if I was, this would be very interesting information.
OMFG @ the tech! And yes, the tech itself is basic as fuck, but omgomg. Linky here
Update: I removed the embed, it had audio. Stupid people… audio does NOT belong online.
Obama has the perfect opportunity to go HARD POPULIST and make everyone fall in love with him again. Here’s what we have:
1. Optically ridiculous behavior by the banking industry (lavish bonuses, etc, all on the government dime).
2. Health insurance companies kicking people out to die in the street.
3. Supreme court decision that will effectively eliminate [...]

Update: er, [...]

There’s not really much to learn from Brown/Coakley tonight except that a shitty campaign by a shitty, evil person can’t beat a moderately decent campaign by a really pretty, evil person. Lower dem turnout is a pure function of Coakley, frankly, sucking balls, combined with not speaking to the liberal bedrock that is Mass. Okokok, [...]
Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesus you namby pamby Democratic fucks. It’s ONE SENATE SEAT, not the four horsemen of the apocalypse. I’m almost going deaf with the sound of the hand-wringing. I swear if dems held 99 Senate seats they’d find some weird procedural way to give full control of the Senate process to the one Republican left.

Actually a much cheaper way to do this would be the following:
1. Go out and purchase one of those led lights, you know, the kind that are in every kind of electronic crap you can buy these days, and are annoying as fuck to look at head on.
2. Sit in a proper posture position [...]
