How Asus Recovery Disks Ended Up Carrying Software Cracks
Anthony_Cargile writes "We all now know about Asus shipping illegal software cracks and confidential documents/source code on their recovery DVD (and in the system root), but this article tells exactly how it happened. It's even more careless than you think, and most likely an accident."
So apparently an Asus employee happened to have a personal flash drive, and stored his resume (presumeably, conspiracy theorists may disagree) as well as a few ÃharmlessÃ(TM) keygens and serials on it as well, in his defence in case maybe he lost the serial to winrar or other programs. Apparently the same employee used the flash drive to store or back up confidential Asus documents and source code, as well.
Was he black?
Yeah. There is a lesson to be learned here: Yet another reason (along with infinite others) not to use that OS.
McCain/Palin '08. Now THAT's hope and change!
Why would it have to be an idiot?
You can how? He just accidentally the install.
Dishevel has some shitting trouble -
Dishevel's shit's stuck in!
He squats, unclenched - his anus cracks,
He sticks a pinky in!
But lo, no poop - it's not enough, :(
Dishevel's pinky's thin.
He groans and grits his teeth, he licks
His thumb - he tries again...
He jiggles left and wriggles right,
It feels so wrong! - but tingles.
Dishevel moans - this thankless fight
Has chafed his ass like shingles.
The moral here? It's painful clear,
Dishevel's smell's quite heinous.
Cuz 'shevel's shits are stuck, from bugg'ring
Himself in the anus.
Don't be a jackass like Dishevel, kids.
lol.
Yeah, linux is great. Install friendly, drivers always included or an easy download away (no fwcutter trying to get broadcom drivers), etc., etc., etc.
STFU fanboi. Last time I tried to compare two linux .conf files, they where MASSIVELY different.
Not so with windows XML files, unless your some ass that just bashes MS and doesn't actually KNOW or PRACTICE what your talking about.
