I knew him through the Nexuiz game, he's made a bunch of beautiful, clever yet fairly unplayable maps. I've chatted a few times with him, most of the time he came across as completely reasonable but you just had to avoid certain subjects:-)
It already was my tried and true browser of choice but now I needed userChrome.css to make tree tabs look decent. Those massive performance improvements mean fuck all if you live in a far corner of the world.
Prior to 2015, asshats hadn't thought of breaking the fucking Internet for profit.
The Netherlands got their net neutrality in 2011 because one of the big telco's was dreaming aloud about new pricing schemes. Chile was the first in the world in 2010.
How does it work? I've installed Windows 7 last week, my first Windows install in more than a decade and I'm not infected yet. I've been on-line for hours!
Kaypro 2. My dad needed it for his work. I couldn't lift it, even though it was supposed to be "portable". Some tiny monochrome screen but it came with 2 floppy drives iirc. Games in text mode. Next up a Wang 20286 with 20mb hd and ega card. Cost as much as a car and had Windows 1 and 2 included.
The story is about the software used to send the results to a central place. So the voting was done by paper ballots but from there on it went digital. The "shocking" (probably not so much anymore) thing was that the particular vulnerability was known for years and pointed out by a student in 2011.
Why would the damage be minimal? Smallpox was stopped by vaccinating people against it. However, the virus would have a large supply of hosts now because of the generations of people who haven't received vaccinations. If dispersed effectively, it seems like smallpox could do a lot of damage.
Not as much damage as the humans it might wipe out. Just sayin'.

He can do charity all he want but he'll still burn in hell for eternity because of what he's done with Microsoft. Says me, atheist.

I've a feeling every peninsula of "the ice continent" is in the north of it.

Yes, I love RSS. Akregator ftw
It's the Blue Whale 50 steps program to security
Ajit Pai needs to be shipped of to Guantanamo Bay as enemy of the people.
IIRC computers then were for programming or automation. Now they're for running programs or apps.

Which site?
My coworkers are ok
Except for those times when the Low Countries sailed up the Thames to sort out their "defender".
I charge money for the software I make. I think that most Microsoft software just isn't worth the price.
Just keep on killing off the 1% until happiness improves.
This made me think of Karl Pilkington's super power https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
When you gained independence, you should have thrown the 'first past the post' system out with the Brits.

I agree. And I wish I could go back to the times of using it as a web browser too.
Seig Heil!! </sarcasm>

They should buy China with it.
They should be looking to the future. I'm an atheist myself but for the likes of Gates I sincerely hope there's an oldfashioned hell.
