Most Expensive JavaScript Ever?
ekran writes "A while ago Opera Software needed more servers. Not just a few servers either — they were planning Opera Mini's growth, implementing Opera Link, and My Opera was also growing quickly.
Most of the major hardware vendors grabbed their specs and came back with offers and sample servers shipped all the way to Oslo for testing. One of the biggest vendors, however, did not do their homework. They shipped the server, but when the Opera sysadmins started up the web-admin interface, they were met with a JavaScript statement that managed to piss off the whole company including the CTO. The script, apparently, locked out the Opera web-browser."
Remember kids, IBM Hardware = Good.
Is Lenovo hardware good too? Do you think IBM choose a good buyer for its PC division?
IBM Software = Kill it with fire.
Would this include IBM BIOS, IBM BASIC, and IBM OS/2?
as defined by the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Neither the federal government nor some international shadow government like the UN has any business trampling on states' rights.
So the bit in the Constitution that says: "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby" should be removed, then?

The US is composed of 50 distinct states, plus a few territories like Puerto Rico, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, etc.
The EU is composed of 27 distinct countries, but, just like the US, they share the same currency, and have free trade between member states/nations.
The US and the EU are more alike than you think, at least in economic terms.
Maybe you're the blithering idiot, for automatically assuming people with a different point-of-view are idiots.
