  1. Re:Torn on We're Staying In China, Says Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Well, Clinton did virtually nothing in response for WTC1, USS Cole, Yemen, Kenya, and Tanzania. AQ had a role in Somalia too. All under Clinton...then finally 9/11 and all you liberal moonbats screamed it was punishment for neo-con foreign policy chickens coming home to roost or somesuch bullshit.

    Clinton was a pansy. He quit every fight that spelled political trouble for himself. If Clinton had hit AQ like Bush did, 9/11 would not have happened. OIF was a mistake...but Clinton was a pansy.

    ...from someone who doesn't work for a school district, nor will be crucified by the politicians, school board (who are politicians), parents, and news media when little johnny pulls up something "objectionable".

    actually people loose their actual careers over this kinda stuff.... you have to at least *try* to filter.

    Lots of Utah state government employees who work from home (for example, people who do data entry for Dept. of Workforce Services). It's worked pretty well, bypasses a lot of problems.

    So then every nation to ever raise a trade dispute is an empire. If you believe that, you're a fucking douchebag.

    Nations routinely "attack" each-other economically over trade-related issues in the form of tariffs, duties, quotas, et al. Has nothing to do imperialism or your hatred for America.

    No. That's not sufficient.

    Disallowing USB drives helped the military cut down on infections, though.

    How about: users run restricted. Using GPO's: mandatory win updates daily with reboot. Automate patching of commonly-used helpers like flash, shockwave, adobereader, firefox, java. And MS security essentials.

    Some rigorous port filters on EVERY machine and iptables rules on routers and l3 switches...a whitelist approach.

  17. you gotta help yourself, homes. on Company Sued, Loses For Not Using Patented Tech · · Score: 1

    i used to work in manufacturing.

    one day, a new guy cut several fingers off on the table saw.

    new guy stands there, bleeding everywhere, screaming "help me! help me!".

    this body-builder ex-con mexican, rafael, stands across the isle from him, eyes as big as saucers and says:

    "uhhhh, you gotta help yourself, homes. i can't help you if you can't help yourself". read that with all the LA Mexican Ex-Con accent you can imagine.

    to this day, when people come to me with PEBKAC problems, i tell this story, with the accent and all. then i just walk off, all yoda-like, as if it means something.
