What Google s chief executive, Eric Schmidt, has to fear more than anything else is that heâ(TM)ll awake one day to learn that the Google search engine suddenly doesn t work on any Windows computers: something happened overnight and what worked yesterday doesnâ(TM)t work today. It would have to be an act of deliberate sabotage on Microsoft s part and blatantly illegal, but that doesnâ(TM)t mean it couldn t happen. Microsoft would claim ignorance and innocence and take days, weeks or months to reverse the effect, during which time Google would have lost billions.
Does he _really_ think Microsoft would do that? How? Some intentionally broken windows update? If they really could do that (and I don't think it's possible in any way), and if they really did that, then:
1 - Google and people all around the world would figure out ways of making google work again in any Windows computer.
2 - Microsoft would drown itself in legal issues in no time.
I just thought it'd be funny remembering that NASA was using an Access ODBC driver in such a big project. It was just a counter-example of what the GP had said. I wasn't offended at all - I just think there is no reason to think there is a tendency in governments and etc of switching to Linux. I think they should, but I don't think it's happening. Citation needed, you know.
You seem to be a nice guy, sorry I made you so mad.
She's still a person, even if she doesn't have a life like you and me. Don't you think your logical approach and cynism are useless here? Her parents love her. Should we kill her anyway?
Think about killing old people with Alzheimer. Would that be the 'right' thing to do?
You took a big logical jump about my sig. There is no saying about killing the ones who don't have a life.
I don't remember bashing someone here in/. but you really sound like a dumbass. Sorry.

Yeah, that makes things so easy!
1 - Define 'open' as 'made by your freaking money-grabbing company'
2 - Impose your definition to everyone else
3 - Profit!!!
Nah, say whatever you want, skeptic. When my ORBO arrives, I'll be the one laughing!
Or in having a flame-war about OSes and Vi over Emacs ?
Of course we don't have to argue about that; vi is much better.
Now the problem is covering all these poor countries areas with cell antennas.
At least here in Brazil, that's a big problem in rural areas, much worse than electricity.
Me neither.

It happened when Microsoft invaded Cuba.
Imagine a Bewoulf cluster of those!
Are you sure that answer was for me?

Look at this. That was me.
I was searching the coments to check if someone had already said that :)
Yeah right.
Yeah, TFA didn't tell this. Let's get it straight:
Porn = ok
Violence and killing and murdering and torturing and... = ok
Porn + Violence = omg omg not ok.
It's nice that theres no problems killing people in movies, but once theres some titties you go to jail in usa :)
'We train young men to drop fire on people. But their commanders won't allow them to write "fuck" on their airplanes because it's obscene! '
I was thinking to myself... why is this any different to any porn site out there? Is porn now prohibited in the US?
I thought there was child porn or something like that, but, after reading TFA, I can't see a problem at all.
They will never learn!
I read these people's posts and think 'damn, what's wrong with you people, she's a child, goddamn'. There's no reasoning about that.

Even that I do agree with you, I don't think that's a reason for killing the girl at all.
I _really_ don't think her parents would agree with that.
Anyway, the only reason you don't kill an infant is that he/she will grow up? If he doesn't develop, you should kill him?
...and real physicists set the universal constants at the start such that the universe evolves to contain the laws of Physics they want.
I still don't see why they say '6 years' if they could say 7. Maybe lawyers really have a problem with math.

So you can look at her delicious kind-of-reddish-coloured breast outlines and those sexy blueish-green thighs?
It's a shame I'm daltonic :-(
Yeah, John Travolta would be locked forever.
So doing something to my own body is CHEATING?
That's what I told her :-(
Just take them to an interrogatory room!
- So, do you sneeze constantly?
- Er... no.
- I saw you sneeze before.
- I didn't.
- But supose you did. Why would you lie about sneezing?
- Hm, maybe because I wouldn't want you to know that I have the swine flu and lock me up in here.
- So, when did you get the flu then?
- I didn't get the flu.
- Oh, i see. We've got a smart-ass here!
Or, another way of seeing it:
1 - Come to the conclusion that a good swine flu detector would be useful.
2 - ???
3 - Build thousands of swine flu detectors and sell them.
4 - Profit!
