The problem with your argument is it's much harder to create a secure software product than it is to create a secure bridge. This is especially true because delaying construction of a bridge for a month can be done without competitors swooping in and taking the market.
A drop in the price isn't worth it. You know how every once in awhile someone walks out of the store and the alarm goes off because a cashier didn't deactivate a tag correctly? Imagine that happening, but you only find out after an hour-long drive home.
It's essentially an invisible wire. Just think of the possibilities! Invisible tripwire, an INVISIBLE clutter of wires behind your desk, and freaky rope bondage!... maybe we should reconsider building this.
and then they screw it up with those big bold quotes ten times the size of | IT'S RETARDED - Strilanc. | the rest of the text, and all it does is state a sentence you'll see later. It's retarded.
Forcing retailers to not sell games rated as "over 17" to people under 17 seems like a pretty tame, reasonable change to me. But how many stores don't already do this anyways?
This is ridiculous, "whine whine, we can't count unique visitors because people are disabling cookies" You couldn't count them before! People don't match up one to one with computers. I can use multiple computers and a computer can be used by multiple people.
If only there were some mathematical field, meant to deal with uncertainties like this.
Some sites have had ads interspersed between videos for awhile now. It's really fucking annoying. At least with television I can change the channel and come back when it's over. Flash ads can wait for you.
The proper thing to do here is: - Ask myspace to take the page down - Secretly install keyloggers in the school computers, get the culprit's myspace account, and put furry porn on it
Experts exchange does something almost as bad as huge flashing graphical ads: they show up in google searches for programming questions. Nothing pisses me off more than going through a link, reading a relevant question, and seeing "subscribe now to see the answer!" Way to slow me down, experts exchange.
Wow, this is the same thing as Site Advisor; except it doesn't warn you about bad websites, it just tells you to fuck off. How hard could it be to modify the site advisor extension to do that?
If you DO read the article for the vulnerability counts: Windows - 39, 12 severe, average 21 day fix Mac - 49, 1 severe, average 66 day fix Red Hat - 208, 2 severe, average 13 day fix
Now it looks to me like Windows performed the worst because of the large number of severe problems. This makes it more likely there are many more severe problems.

I think you mean: Imagine the internet when spam consists of high-def videos involving enlargement.

Wouldn't the company have mentioned that?
Innocent Company: *grabs a few bottles from random stores* "Here, test these and fuck off."
Is anyone else tired of reading parent's exact comment on every LHC story?
