GM - Was booming in 2006, signed $300 million outsourcing deal with Wipro that same year, went bankrupt 3 years later HP - Got out of the PC hardware business in 2011 and can't compete with Apple's tablets.

PeopleSoft - Taken over by imported Indian workers in 2000 - had to be sold off to Oracle to avoid embarrassment of closing.
Sun Micro - Dying. See above.
Bell Labs - Taken over by Indian-national Arun Netravalli in 2003. Bell Labs where the transistor, UNIX, and the C programming language were invented is now being turned into a shopping mall.
Quark - Taken over by Indian national Alukah Kamar - who laid off all the American developers and sent the work to India. The products became so bad that 60% of Quark's customer base defected to Adobe InDesign, never to return. Kamar was later fired but not before permanent harm was done to Quark.
Computer Associates' former CEO from India is now serving 12 years in federal prison for fraud.
MIT Media Lab Asia - Closed in 2006 due to faked invoices in India.
Intel Whitefield processor project - this project in India was cancelled when Intel discovered that many of the "engineers" had faked their resumes.
ComAir - ComAir's 100% Indian IT staff caused the nationwide 2005 Christmas day airport shutdown when they used a short int instead of a long int in the crew scheduling software they were working on. So much for the best and the brightest from overseas contributing to the American economy.
Boeing Dreamliner - Boeing's new 787 Dreamliner airplane has been delayed 5 times - in part because of failed software written by India's HCL Technologies - whose CEO once said "American grads are unemployable".

Add American Express, they have a new-ish VP, niraj nagrani, that is getting rid of all the white directors and lower level VP's but keeping all the brown ones

Planned obsolescence is bullshit too. Expensive shit needs to be built to last.
The news websites are the absolute worst, especially when they play some shitty video without me clicking it. Everything is huge and the whole thing redlines my CPU with no effort. Fuck, I hate it.
If it wasn't for all this unnecessary bullshit infecting the internet, I could probably still be using a single core machine.

funny thing is, Sup Forums isnt even web 1.0, nipmoot is just smart enough to understand that this aesthetic is naturally pleasing to the eyes when its done right
