Microsoft on Security: We'll Break Your Apps
jointm1k writes "Wired.com is running a story about how Microsoft is trying to act responsible and all by fixing (or trying to fix?) many (if not all) security holes in Windows. Not only new versions of Windows will be patched or improved, but as I understood they also plan to force security updates for older versions of Windows down peoples throats. Even if that means that some applications will mallfunction.
Nice to see Microsoft taking reponsibility for their mistakes, but they really should have done so when they designed Windows."
I guess the submitter has never read anything by Linus on the Linux mailing list. He is constantly making changes to the kernel and saying "screw stupid userland apps, this is the right way to do things". Even about non-security issues. And he's right, the only way to avoid massive layers of backwards-compatible cruft is to just slough off the existing infrastructure and create the OS anew for every release.
Wasn't "Micro-Soft Cock" Gate's nickname in college?
Hmm, no, I don't think that was what was meant. Follow the link, and it'll be much clearer...
Very well written study. Interesting arguments. Mod it up, so that the other readers may find this gem as well!
This puzzles me, as open source advocates' number one claim to fame is that "we have security updates released within the hour of finding the bug!" But the truth is that they are never checked for app compaibility. Either you have full compatibility to programs that have coded to buggy standards, or you plug the security holes. Seems like you can't win in this situation.
Shut the fuck up you fucking asshole. Michael is completely within his rights to do what he is doing. Seth is a shithead. I would LOVE to meet that fucker and beat the tar out of him. If the only thing that pathetic faggot can do is whine and complain and rail on about the slightest misattributed misfortune, then he deserves every bad thing he gets. If there are any other bits of "fame and fortune" out there that this loser craves, I hope he misses out on every one. He needs to be ridiculed publicly and quite often.
Seth, if you are out there, post a response here and I will personally reply with my legit e-mail and phone number. Try and harass me and we'll see how fast I track you down and make your life a living hell.
Cheers!
I said he can keep his immature stalkedbyseth.com-domain. Please tell me how his actions differ from those of the people who run www.whitehouse.com?
Answer: They don't. Michael is a dirty squatter.
And you're a fucking asshole! Sometimes we have to use any means necessary to screw over the fuckers in this goddamned world. If you were a fucking man, you would see that you stinking faggot-ass. www.whitehouse.com are hardly squatters, they are just assholes with a warped sense of humor. Michael has a legitimate beef. He worked on the censorware site all by himself while the rest of the group sat on their asses and that fucker Seth wanted to take some glory from it as well. To make matters worse, the fact that Seth was still being secretly pumped into the censorware site even though he was supposed to be gone just plain sucks. If that fucker was going to leabve, he should be gone. but intstead, he insists on constantly badgering anyone who isn't "on his side". Well, Seth... I'll tell you this. I'm DEFINITELY not on your side. If we ever cross paths, I am going to berate you into oblivion. You'll have fame all right, but it won't be the kind you want you little worthless shit. And as far as the parent poster, you can go fuck yourself. Nobody cares about your fucking sick views. Keep them to yourself you little mastubating monkey freak. You are obviously seriously mentally challenged since you have taken up the side of Seth. Seth is just a plain old nasty, stinking, mother fucking, cock sucking, genitally lacking, canker infested asshole times ten. End of story. Now take this crap off the site you shithead! Do you hear me!! Stay the fuck off of here!!!!!

That, my friends is the true definition of hypocrisy. Michael: Stop you ridiculous squatting. You can keep you immature stalkedbyseth.com -domain. We know you don't get any hits because of that domain. The reason your page gets any hits at all is because you squat on the domain censorware.org.
