This is a funny thread!  Slashdot article on a bunch of geeks running off to “own a 128-bit integer”!  Wait until you get to the reply on “RE: Eat it”.

Here’s an article on Digg regarding this rumor and a quote of one guys extreme reaction to the news: IBM Layoff

People here in the States aren’t going to wake up to what is happening until THEIR job is taken. The middle class is being systematically dismantled.

We’ve pretty much lost most of our manufacturing base. Very little is still “made in the USA”. We’ve gone from a self-sufficient country that could make anything it needs to one that imports damn near everything. Hell, many of the parts required for some of our more sophisticated military weapons are made in China. Hmm, wonder what happens if China decides to stop making them?

One thing we still make and make well are firearms. I’d suggest you buy a few and get ready for the coming maelstrom.
