    You're right, I won't complain if all of the banks (and businesses dealing with credit) disappear! In fact, I'll be extremely enthused.

    No, it has nothing to do with that. You're trying to say that Symantec is unable to write a report about some event or fact because their software sucks at catching a virus.

    No, 4chan's message warned about JavaScript Spam: http://www.lurkmore.com/wiki/JavaScript - there has never, to my knowledge, been a warning about general files, because those files don't attack 4chan and so they don't care.

    I don't see how the inability to program a properly functioning piece of software has anything to do with the ability to write an article about how downloading software from random links will get you infected.

    Spread links to "LOIC" downloads through Twitter, Facebook and random forums. Attain control of hundreds, if not thousands of computers. This is why you verify a clean source for your downloads, so you don't get infected by viruses. It's part of the Common Sense 2012 Anti-Virus Suite.

    No, the problem started when it became legal. The current problem is the "too easily attainable and way too favourable to women" part. Back in the 50s women didn't have an income, they needed the payments, and the men could afford to make them. These days, the men are getting paid half as much as the men of olde, and have to pay just as much, or more, to the women.

    So, are you saying all cars are shit and people should ride bikes or take public transit (I agree, they should)? I'm not sure what your point is. The batteries in those shitty cars are going to cost about $10k to replace, every five to eight years or so - if they don't catch fire first, anyway. Completely ignoring the amount of damage the batteries have made to the environment, just from manufacturing them, anyway.

    Your own article says that the "loan" part was already repaid, five years earlier than expected, and the rest is shares. Canada owns shares of the company, or did at the time of that two year old article. I'm not sure what the point in mentioning it was, other than to make yourself sound like an idiot for mentioning something negatively and having your own source say the opposite of what you were implying.

  13. I'd like to know who thinks these things will last on Sony To Delete Virtual Goods · · Score: 1

    I'd like to know who thinks these things will last forever. The crap on their own hard drives won't last forever, why would they expect crap on someone else's computer to be there? Why would anyone even pay money for virtual goods instead of real goods? They deserve to lose their virtual goods, to teach them lessons in life. Paying for nothingness is about as intelligent as selling your kidney for an iPad.

    The minimum legal age of marriage is not where the problem is. With parental consent, you can get married at 15 years old, pretty much anywhere in the world. The problem is that divorce is legal, too easily attainable and way too favourable to women (it's not the 50s anymore!), giving women the ability to do the following:

    >Marry
    > stay thin so she can fuck as many guys as she can
    > While she's at home, making her husband's daily life as shit as possible
    > Divorce
    > She takes all of the guy's money
    > She's still thin, she still fucks tons of guys
    >> Possible final stage a) Living off of her ex-husband for the rest of her life
    >> Possible final stage b) She gets married, her ex-husband finds out, goes to court and loses, he now has to pay more
    >> Possible final stage c) She gets married, her ex-husband finds out, goes to court and wins, he no longer has to pay (very unlikely)
    >> Possible final stage d) She meets someone that she says she loves, they both live off of her ex-husband for the rest of her life; she still fucks other guys
    > Ex-husband can never move on with his life, can never get a better job, will very likely lose everything he has and live like a turd, will not be able to marry because his new wife will now be paying for his ex-wife, can only be saved if he can prove that his ex-wife is married.

    This is the real problem with marriage.

  15. I hope the government listens! on Government Should Ban Skinny Models To Curb Anorexia, Say Researchers · · Score: 1

    I don't really care if all of the models are properly average in size; most of those girls are currently nasty looking from being so thin, anyway.

    I just hope the government listens, and while banning too-skinny models, they ban any model that would medically be obese. Obviously, since it's a medical ban, any muscle girl would still have her advertising job. It's just the disgusting obese women who will have to work for their money, instead of happily gorging themselves, for once.

    The skinny girls won't lose their jobs, they'll only be extremely thankful that the government has given them the chance to eat properly, and to stop using a massive amounts of alcohol and drugs, in order to have a job.

  16. I could understand if they were using old 1680x1050 120Hz+ monitors with proper colour management, but they are using some ancient shit monitors on garbage computers (garbage when they were purchased, even more so now). This is ignoring, of course, that the computer upgrades, to something that will actually run a modern browser or any modern software, is a small fraction of the total upgrades, and that the huge bulk of it is needed for infrastructure upgrades.

  17. It's worse than that. The shitty computers they bought can't multitask, or run pretty much any modern software (browser).

    Depends on what you want to listen to, for example, I like classical and jazz music, so Linn Records is great. There are other sites out there that deal with other types of music. Some popular artists do release high quality tracks, sometimes even for free (Trent Reznor as an easy example).

    You have to ignore the people who go on about AMD not being worth the money (though I have to admit that Bulldozer was a huge flop). Last year I got my 955BE and motherboard for $200 total. Nothing Intel offers can come close to that for a CPU and Mobo. The CPU alone would be at least $150, to match the Phenom II X4 955BE. I got a high quality motherboard and high quality CPU for about the cost of Intel's lower end CPUs.

    The videos are about 6 minutes long. Cooking time not shown is maybe 10-20 minutes more. That's about 20-25 minutes to make pretty much anything they've shown. It's not hard to watch a video, write down the ingredients you need, and the steps to make it, and then watch it again when you have the ingredients, in order to pick up her skills or to double check that you're doing it correctly.
