Hey there, dumbshit, MSE is the top AV suggestion for people using Windows because it is the best one out there right now. The only other ones that are as good as MSE are either non-free AV or free versions of resource heavy AV software.
XP had 5 different service packs between the x86 and x64 editions. If MS was Apple, the service packs would cost $100+ each and everything would look different/be broken with the new service pack.
So yes, Windows has the same GUI after 10 years and multiple versions. In fact, it's had the same theme available for nearly 20 years.
I knew a girl who got herself impregnated by some alcoholic from the USA. She was feeling ill and went to a clinic - this was while she was still in Canada. She waiting 4-5 hours to get checked out because it was obvious to the staff that she wasn't dying or aborting (from the form she filled out and how she looked). Her boyfriend, who has no insurance, whined about the wait - he didn't seem to mind not paying a few hundred for the visit, though. He didn't mind not paying thousands of dollars for the monthly checkups that a pregnant woman should have. He didn't seem to mind signing her up to a special program that covered the hospital bill after he brought her back to the States so she could have her baby. I'm pretty sure that was a USA government program, not just some charity group.
Considering that her boyfriend has no insurance, where do you think he'll be going to get medical assistance - if he ever actually visits a doctor, that is? A shitty walk in clinic closest to wherever he lives. He will get the same wait, if not a longer wait due to the much higher population density, and he's also going to pay about a week's paycheck for the checkup and other processes (blood tests, etc) - not that he actually had a job.
On the other hand, unlike her or her boyfriend, I called up doctors in my area and chose the best one for me. My wife, who only recently became a Canadian, did the same thing that I had done over a decade ago. It took her all of 20 minutes to find an amazing doctor to take care of her medical needs. Our doctors set us up with the best specialists they know, when we need them, and they get us appointments within days or, at worst, a few weeks. Our appointments are available for the next day, if we need them, and there are no delays when we get there. If I need some medication for a one time thing, my doctor has no problem giving me as many of her samples as are needed - this way I don't have to pay a fortune for some random meds. Blood tests and x-rays? No problem. I get a little form and take it down to the lab.
I also have an optometrist who actually loves his job and uses the best technology to do his work. I've never had to wait more than a few minutes to get into my eye exams. I set up an appointment and I've got one within the week.
Now, the point I'm trying to make is that if I had to try to cover all of my medical expenses, I'd be bankrupt. I don't have to wait for hours for my appointments. I don't have to deal with any bullshit insurance. I've never seen a bill from anything medical related. I go in, I do what I need to do, I leave - no worries, ever.
If it wasn't for the Canadian health care system, my wife, who has at least nine different medical conditions, would be dead right now. Sure, her family doctor in the USA was a good doctor, and he would help her as much as he could, but that's it. He could only do as much as he could get away with, which isn't much. There was no way she could possibly have afforded health insurance, or any other health care expenses. There is no way I could afford health insurance and the bullshit that comes with it.
There is no way I could visit the doctor whenever I need to, especially for regular yearly checkups, without Canada's useful health care system. There's no way my wife would be alive without her monthly visits to an assorted selection of doctors.
No, you dumb motherfucker, you buy a prefab that costs you less than $30k, including taxes - shipped to your land. This house has all of the niceties in a handful of rooms and can manage any weather. You want something bigger? No problem, drop another $10k-$100k.
Of course, you could also build your own house, if you weren't a crippled slashtard.
Just because you are mentally challenged, it doesn't mean everyone else is.
You can build a house from wood. A single person can cut the trees down, prep them and build the house within a year. If you want the extras, you drop a few thousand on the materials you need and put them together. You can also purchase a prefab house with everything included (winter/wind proofed, as well) for under $30k, including shipping and potential taxes. The only reason you think otherwise, and try to justify paying hundreds of thousands, and even millions of dollars, for a total cost in labour and materials of $10k to $100k, is because you are a moron.
For most movies, 0% of the ticket price goes to the theater in the first week, and it increases by 10% with every week. The theaters make their money off of the pop and snacks.
Yes, that was also another possibility that I was considering. There's also potential for the person just picking the cheapest site off of the first page of search results for his first domain, but then it comes down to being the type of consumer that GoDaddys and 1&1s love. A biggest-ad-gets-the-business type of customer.
This guy hasn't replied, so either he doesn't check/. much or I was right. I referenced this post to a different low UID user who uses 1&1 - he gave an explanation in reply.
Okay, if your primary line of business is a software developer, I can see how you may not have inquired into other service providers. I'm assuming you just picked the cheapest registrar on the front page of your search.
Yeah, most "stars" and "models" are 6/10s. If you hadn't noticed, the general populace is full of the mentally challenged. I've seen thousands of camwhores (you know, those ones that get naked on the Internet just for fun) that are infinitely hotter than any girl that's "known".
Sounds like generic terms that won't actually be used by a good registrar for anything other than domains used for illegal purposes. Domains used for child pornography sites, for example.
They are using GoDaddy's negative press because they know it will get them business from people who are rightfully angry with GoDaddy. It makes no difference to their level of service whatsoever if they are using GoDaddy's moronic practices to get free advertising. It does not change that Namecheap provides a good service. I don't use them but if I had to move registrars, they would be at the top of my list.
You haven't heard of Namecheap because, a) you are in fact trying to do damage control, b) the television makes every decision in your life, c) you are incompetent, or d) you don't actually deal with domains and so you have no knowledge of anything other than (b).
Though I use a different registrar, Namecheap is one of the most recommended registrars out there. It's a very well known name in the industry. The only reason I didn't choose them in the end is that another registrar was better suited to myself, and although it's a bit smaller than Namecheap, it also had fewer negative experience reviews.
Regarding my previous comment, this current post of yours just seems to drive my point home.
Namecheap is one of the more widely recommended registrars. It's a big name in the business, not some unknown newcomer. Anyone who deals with [multiple] domains would know about this, unless the only thing they use to make their decisions in life is the television. Anyone working in the industry should know about other registrars and hosting providers, unless they are incompetent.
* Trying to sell you things you don't need constantly, even after you've finished your order.
* A cluttered control panel interface that also tries to sell at every chance.
* A confusing site in general that makes it hard to figure out what you're actually buying, or adds things to your cart that you have to manually remove.
* Constant deals for ridiculous discounts - if they are providing a good service, how can they afford to sell their domains for an average of $3 each? The answer to that would be that they've already made more money that they've spent, but you still have staff costs to take care of. When you have more domains to manage that means more staff needed to handle the issues of the domain owners. Also, more staff to manage those domains and other bullshit services you provide, such as servers for website hosting, DNS management, etc.
In general, you can search for forums that deal with domains and read customer reviews. There might even be topics dedicated to listing the most recommended providers.
That's interesting. I've noticed, in these articles about domain or hosting providers, that low UID users were the ones recommending the worst providers. Does your company buy low UID/. accounts and use them in articles like this, for damage control PR for their clients?
I've always signed up online (at one time I was getting about 20 different magazines) and I've never received a phone call. In fact, the entirety of their attempts to get me to renew was in the magazine itself (asking me to fill out the card or the survey online).

For the huge majority of votes, it does mean agree/disagree.

Linux has a GUI? I've never seen it.
The consequences to him doing otherwise would be a gun in his face and confinement in a cell.

Choose to not give a fuck about copyright, or use those works that should be in the public domain and don't give a fuck about anyone else's hangups.
HAHA OH WOW you think "rights" exist.

That's the one.

People still suggest Gandi on here. I only just heard about them a couple of months ago from a suggestion in Slashdot comment.

Some signs of a shit registrar:
* Trying to sell you things you don't need constantly, even after you've finished your order.
* A cluttered control panel interface that also tries to sell at every chance.
* A confusing site in general that makes it hard to figure out what you're actually buying, or adds things to your cart that you have to manually remove.
* Constant deals for ridiculous discounts - if they are providing a good service, how can they afford to sell their domains for an average of $3 each?
