How should we judge a government?

In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X

Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain

Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham

"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan

My friend's take on keeping up with the IT Joneses

Wow, technology has really been pushed hard.

Now this Toshiba AT200 (7.7mm) is the thinnest tablet TO DATE, even thinner or slimmer than the Samsung Tablet 10.1 (8.6mm) or even the iPad2 tablet (8.8mm).

As usual, be prepared to throw or discard these tablets away after 3+ years of use 'cuz all slim or thin tablets come with embedded batteries. Unless you belong to that rich self-indulging category of iPad users who can afford it, you better be prepared to send them in and spend an extra RM450/= and about 2 weeks of cold-turkey withdrawal, to just replace the eventually permanently depleted embedded battery.

But by then ( 3+ years' time), more and more powerful devices will be out, so you always end up "keeping up with Joneses". So those rich iPad ladies who discard objects (and men!!!) at the flimsiest excuses, are indeed very wise to buy slim and beautiful devices. They can afford them.

As for the Android men, think carefully since most of you are broke...
