"Oh boo hoo the system's broken and would be even if we fixed it."....our forefathers are spinning in their graves. Take the nation back from the tyrants or be content to live in chains.
Let's see...Windows is now the odd-man out in the OS world, being the only consumer and business OS that doesn't use a Unix kernel. They make a standard and expect the world to revolve around them.
The fact that it's closed source.......and if for no other reason than people have to spend more money (through new hardward, namely a PC that run it)....that's a net negative value right there.
Do you need to have a license to carry a hammer/knife/screwdriver/pencil?
Should you have to have a license and pay a fee to own a pencil?
I can kill you just as quick with a pencil, and a pencil is just as disposible as a bullet...if not more so. Now granted, it would have to be up-close and personal...but it would be just as quick.
Carrying a gun is no different than carrying a knife, or a sword, or a spear, or a club. If someone wants to kill you, they're going to do it. I think people's aversion to firearms is that human beings have a morbid need to see their demise coming, and are falsely under the impression that they can do something about it. A firearm, removes that ability from the equation, based on the skill of the wielder....you'll never see it coming. One minute you're alive, the next you're dead.....but what people don't realize, is that's true with any other weapon used with the intention of ending another person's life....which brings us full circle to:

Windows8 is a kind of terrible of Vista proportions. Windows is the last of the OS's not to use a Unix'esque kernel 8 will be the last nail in the coffin, Microsoft has truly lost their way.
Some people need to look at things a different way before they can understand and process it. You should never discourage someone that's trying to learn.
If you don't have something constructive to add, or you're not offering to help educate the guy, maybe you ought to keep your cockholster shut.
I always thought that would be a short book.....Bone, fire hydrant, chase cat, chase mail man, chase car, poop in the floor, wag tail, sleep, repeat.....
I disagree. Sheeple are those who do what they're told, believe every rumor, and don't question anything. There has to be a small measure of order at the foundation so you have a frame of reference to pull back from the chaos when it gets out of hand. To be able to think for one's self and be a responsible individual. Moderation in everything, including moderation. There are just as many sheeple on one side of the fence as there are the other. Critical thinking and personal responsiblity is almost non-existent.
Wow...how times have changed. Back in the day, it was anything you do is safe, because you did what you told. If not, you were somewhere you shouldn't have been, or doing something you shouldn't have been doing...it's probably your fault. Long gone are the days of personal responsibility.
The United Nations is a farce and not a real form of world government. It's just a "country" club that sit around and say "good job" to some, and say "Don't do that, or we'll say don't do that, again".
No, I would never support things being controlled by the UN.
...that's more money they get. It's in ATT's best interest to activate a stolen phone. They sell another device to the previous owner, and they sell a new account to the thief. Of course they're being dismissive of the case. ATT is only interested in the bottom line.
....mob rule and public outcry supersede the rule of law. Furthermore this is proof that the public at large is too stupid to manage themselves. This will be a media-circus witch-hunt. I really don't want to live on this planet anymore.
Not to be a troll, but you obviously can't read. It said: "FROM HIS OWN HOME". What people do in their private time, is not, and should never be, a punishable offense.
I have a picture of 30 TSA agents standing around doing nothing in front of the x-ray machines
Another way they get you. A lot of the foreign airlines don't make you remove your little 1quart toiletry bag, so you forget about it upon re-entry to the US, so they have "reason" to hand search you and your dirty underwear.
...let me guess, the mother was Muslim and was offended that ants had human-like intelligence as this is an affront to Allah, Invisible Man of the Middle East?
The carriers are scared of international travel. Because the minute the American public discovers that people in Europe (Ukraine specifically), can get a month's worth of airtime for $15, people will be up in arms. The US has the worst service per dollar spent ratio in the world.
I have tried the interface in Windows 8. I hate it.
I have no option to use "Desktop Only" and this will be extremely prohibitive to my business, and my livelihood.
As a result, I will be drafting letters to Apple and Ubuntu in order to make migrations away from being a Microsoft shop, as well as to proposing to Apple, that if they wish to achieve superiority in the Desktop market, the time is now and they should port their OS to all x86 instruction set capable computers.
For lack of a better word, the "Metro" interface on a desktop machine is utter sh*t....If you intend on forcing this upon your user-base, it's time we all wipe our arses, and move on to something else.

Dear Microsoft:
I have tried the interface in Windows 8. I hate it.
I have no option to use "Desktop Only" and this will be extremely prohibitive to my business, and my livelihood.

For lack of a better word, the "Metro" interface on a desktop machine is utter sh*t....If you intend on forcing this upon your user-base, it's time we all wipe our arses, and move on to something else.
