Marc Garneau's former wife was found dead, along with her lover in a car whose windows was cracked open and a hose was run from the exhaust to the window...
And another can-adian ass-tronaut, a medical doctor, failed to take care of her wife during her pregnancy. So she skipped important tests, and the offspring is retarded. Nothing unusual here, except that the fucking asshole, upon hearing the bad news, squarely put the blame on her and cancelled the shower party.
Even worse, when the family was posted to Houston so the ass-tronaut could do his training, the canadian space agency refused to pay for the special care the baby needed. Needless to say, their salaries were insufficient to pay for this, so the ass-tronauts had to go on strike until the agency funded the special care for the baby.
And, lastly, the second canadian woman in space, Julie Payette, caused an american astronaut's wife strike: since the hot bitch screwed her way to the top, there was no way the chaste american astronaut's wifes would trust their beloved husbands along with that slut, so they went on strike, too, and NASA then said that the hot bitch wouldn't go in orbit.
But, politics being politics, since she is french and a woman, she had to go and the canadian ambassator to the US (the brother of canadian prime sinister Jean Chrétien) personally asked Billy Boy (this was before Dubya?) to override NASA's concern for the chastity of their crews.
So, the hot bitch finally went up...
Ain't canadian space politics fun???? (but the baby's doin' fine, though).

Bzzt. There's no law that prevents you from importing software that is otherwise legal.
Except the EULA printed on the back of the box: "Licensed for use only with products bearing the PlayStation logo and [NTSC|U/C] designation." Any other use violates the patents on the PlayStation hardware.
personally, my favourite solution is to label my computers. give them names, and stick the names to them somehow.
Actually, since all my boxen are standardized enough so most machines are able to do all that has to be done, I put their disk drives in caddies, and label the caddies with the machine names...:):):):)
Personally, I have ONE well-configured machine acting as the firewall, the router, and the file server. There would be a seperate machine providing external 'net service (HTTP) if I could think of any damn good reason I needed a web server at my house.
Lemme guess. That's a Windows-2000 box with no service pack, right?
Now, when you take a real.exe file, rename it to.txt, and then send it as application/octet-stream IE will prompt to download/open, and if you click open it will open it in notepad.
Imagine what could happen if the first exploits of these security flaws came, not piecemeal from a scattering of amateurs, but rather from some adversary who could call on the services of numbers of technically proficient individuals. A hostile government say, or a terrorist movement that drew in disaffected persons in many countries. What if the vast majority of business users had no idea of how vulnerable they were until the system suffered a massive failure?
And what do you know if it isn't already done? Some serious organizations bent on deeply infltrating western economies to damage would know better than do juvenile pranks like wiping all data on lawyer's computers!!!! They would instead spread thin and wide, and root deep for a while, lay dormant until, when they'll be thoroughly spread-out, wreak havoc like you haven't seen before!
Think of it as the cybernetic version of the World Trade Center.
Your statement implies that our government is soft on the law-breaking young -- HARDLY! Rather, it's attitude towards (non-white, anyway) children is nothing short of bloodthirst.
And since the kids whodunnit are jews, they'll definitely get scot-free in the US.
In Israel, they generally shoot terrorists (and one or two innocent people). I don't want the death penalty for these kids but five-years would be about right.
They're jews. And they've inflicted untold
economic harm onto goys. As a result, they won't get anything, as it is well known that jews don't like goys.
... I've worked for several Fortune 500 companies and I've yet to see one with good security. You'd think they'd be going out and hiring a bunch of security professionals after Sept 11 but I'm not seeing a whole lot for infosec or security on the job boards.
That's because security is not good for the bottom line. It's too expensive.
... You can rest assured that if Al Qaeda could find two brain cells to rub together that they would've done something similar ...
But they DID!. Wrecking billions of dollars ' worth of prime real-estate with only a few box cutters and the like is pure genius. Now, Ossama Bin-Laden truly showed his engineering talent: doing a lot with virtualy nothing.
I don't agree entirely with what you write, since I assign the blame for things like this almost entirely to those who write the stuff in the first place. I'm sure you'll get plenty of other replies saying the same.
The best "disclaimer" I ever heard was from a former roommate, when he tried to justify throwing some of my stuff in the garbage (for him, a book that is older than a year is obsolete):
Did they REALLY expect a Z80 with a TCP/IP stack to set the world on fire enough to pay back $280M? QUARTER OF A BILLION DOLLARS!?!?!
You seem to forget the embedded/controller market. There are zillions of devices in the field based on Z-80 controllers, and gillions of software written for it. This is something you just don't throw out overnight.
And a instantly-networkable Z-80 will definitely fill some needs, if only for the plentifulness of implementing distributed systems via TCP/IP.
So...driving is a privilege because they tell you it is, and you believe them? Wake up, and smell the coffee. Many people depend on this so-called privilege to make a living -- should making a living be a privilege?
Driving a car is not like breathing. However, making a living is also a privilege. Ask any illegal immigrant about that!
Personally, I'm not a big fan of automobiles. I have structured my life in such a way so that I do not require any vehicle beside my feet, and my bicycle.
Ditto here. However, I do not like risking my life each time I go out (by foot) to make my living because some moron just can't drive properly.
I think that most people would be much happier without the pollution, financial burden, endless concrete slabs, and accidents caused by cars, but, I still don't consider cars to be a mere privilege.
In that case, I suggest you walk to the nearest Lexus dealership and demand your rightful car. I just wonder what their reaction will be...
Fallacy! you have the right to travel by whichever means you can afford (like flying, taking the train or riding the dog), or which you have the privilege of using, like driving a car.
It is not becaue you painted yourself in a corner (by virtually eliminating public transportation) that you suddenly have the "right" to use a car!!!! Expect to have that "right" pulled from you if you don't exercise it responsibly!!!

And the humbling realization that something this big was done so long ago.
When something is done right the first time, it's not necessary to re-invent the wheel...
Space junk caused the death of several astro-nuts, back 21 years ago... :) :) :)
