This is reason enough to believe that "climate change" is bullshit. Just like "saving the gay whales" was the issue du jour of the nineties.
I would like to tell you how I like to wipe my ass, but the method is Classified National Security Information. Now hand over your civil liberties, it's snowing again.
In April 2002, Rancho Bernardo received media attention when one of the school's assistant principals forced female students at a school dance to lift their clothing and expose their underwear, in search of G-strings and thongs. The district said the reason for the check was to "ensure appropriate school dress."[2] Rita Wilson, the assistant principal involved in this incident, was later demoted to a teaching position.[3]
And it was later discovered that none of the students broke any rules. The rule was that underwear could not be showing. The problem is people making up the rules as they go along, often in secret. Our government for example...
We were made aware of your recent exploits concerning Google and a number of other Western corporations. We know that you have the facility to go after bigger and better targets, so why not go after the U.S. government itself? Instead of hacking Gmail to read average citizens' e-mail, you could go after congress and deliver to us their damming communiques. We want to know all about their marital affairs, business dealings, money streams, and even their bowel movements. We want them to know that they are being watched using the very systems they voted to put into place. We cannot do the same, for our society is becoming repressive and average citizens are being tried as war-criminals if not tortured detained indefinitely without trial.
You can do it. We understand that your government tacitly condones your hacking actions against U.S. interests. Google is your friend. The United States government is your enemy. Google will publicly condemn China and cause it to lose business. The U.S. government will not release public statements out of fear of humiliation, so they will not affect Chinese business. Get into their computers, post their secrets on Wikileaks, and you will be our heroes. After exploitation, publicly supply the methods of exploitation to humiliate our government. Our government are out of touch with reality and are stinking drunk with power and the money earned with capitalistic corporate greed. You must become heroes of the people. Not just your people, but the people of the world.
Faults in Microsoft Products aren't sensational, they're just a lot of unsurprising ho-hum background noise that we get used to. Microsoft finally releasing a decent product would be sensational.
It's a matter of national security. As the American manufacturing sector withers away and we become a service economy, our creative content* will remain our largest export, and we have to protect our country's cash cows. I'm not joking.
* Of course, I don't agree with bullshit like ACTA and the DMCA. The content providers haven't produced anything worth a shit in decades so the best solution to this is not to buy their shit and instead donate that money to the EFF and The Pirate bay.
I bet that some kids were observed nude or even jacking off, but the observers never reported it because they'd be admitting to viewing child porn.
Semi-related story: when I was in high school, I thought it would be funny to use my student I.D. to crush my Sweet tarts into a fine powder and chop them up like lines of cocaine. My music teacher sent me to the counselor's office even though he knew what the powder was. The counselor asked me how I knew how to do that, and I told her I saw it in the move South Central (which was true).
I had always hoped that naive, alarmist authorities were only a high school thing. Then bam, 9/11, and here we are.
There is no god. Life is an accident. There is no grand unified purpose of everything or anything. Shit is just the way it is and we have to make the best of it before we fade into the eternal void. Yes, I know it's depressing.
Prepare for the next painful years of your life dying your hair black, listening to My Chemical Romance and Linkin Park, wallowing aimlessly in existentialist anxiety until you give up on life and become a nihilistic professional troll.
Agility is not a defecit of attention. They're quicker than other big tech to catch on, ballsy enough to take risks, savvy enough to remain a powerhouse, and honest/polite enough to alert users of a change of direction.
Or Google could be utter crap. But crappier and less trustworthy competition makes Google look like Robin Hoods and all-stars in comparison.
Interesting point. For many of us, though, losing points at the gym would result in a net gain. For example, going from 240 points down to 185 points would actually be a net gain, in the form of access to more "enchanted caves*".
Ho hum. A non-article. Video games are close enough to reality*. Police Quest vs. being a real policeman, for example, where 80% of both is banal tedium like "show your badge" and "knock on door" and "fill paperwork". Or like working life vs. WoW - spend 90% of life performing mindless, repetitive acts to hoard enough money to buy stuff and have a little fun every now and then. Or Nightshade, possibly the first game to feature a "popularity meter" (karma?):
Higher popularity meant greater recognition by everyday denizens of Metro City and allowed Nightshade access to more areas.
And, of course it should work both ways. Eventually people cease to receive points for wiping their ass or washing their balls and begin to lose points for not doing either.
* With the exception of extra lives and respawning, of course.
...and driving good speakers takes more power. I agree with fm6 that netbooks are undermarketted but the space factor and at least the illusion of long battery life are not compatible with a good speaker system.
Hell, today's artificially-loudened-during-mastering transient-loaded bass-heavy music like this* would shred even laptop cones.
*Fun fact: early in the song, a "hot bowl of grits" is mentioned.
The 25 flaws are the cause of almost every major cyber attack in recent history, including the ones that recently struck Google and 33 other large companies...

TFA seems like it's just looking for somebody to blame when the axe falls.
Would knowing how many women work at Oracle be of the slightest use to a competitor?
Yes. Hypothetical example: lots of women work ar Oracle, lots of competitors' men flock to Oracle. It's not rocket science - and when you're a socially-inept nerd "on the floor" even a light whiff of perfume or floral hair conditioner every now and then makes all the difference.
And Chinks. Plenty of Chinks with loyalty to the motherland. The dirty little secret of the recent corporate hacks. You can take the Chinaman out of China, but you cannot take China out of the Chinaman.
And for every one of your kind of story we have one kind of mine, which is that 9.10 works flawlessly out of the box on all of the computers I use. Better so, actually, because things like the wireless drivers and CUPS eliminate the need to manually install the drivers I would have to on a Windows Box.
I'm running 9.10 on a 1.6gHz 512MB laptop and the default window dressings work without skipping a beat, even after adding a little cube-action. The only problem I saw, a minor one, was the installed version of OpenOffice broke some documents, and bug reports have been filed.
Ubuntu is the Windows-killer. They're doing a bang-up job of making things easy to switch. I'm not one to shill, but I would suck Shuttleworth's cock and ask for seconds.
For some reason, and I still do not understand exactly why, people tend to re-invent things. Once you have seen this happen a few times, you don't tend to be impressed with every latest doo-dad.
Hear, hear. I consider myself the most electronically inclined out of all my friends and I still couldn't (without Googling) tell you about the difference between LCD, LED, and plasma or the iPhone and the Blackberry like my friends, who've settled into gadget fetishism, can.
TV became pointless when the Discovery channel quit being educational and became "reality". I use my phone for calls, texts, and the occasional picture or video while shunning an online presence altogether. Do the content providers believe that their content will be less crappy when shown on obscenely large screens? Maybe not, people are watching shows on their phones. It seems that the content, the whole reason for doing, matters much less than the novelty of how it's done.
The government did not cause Swine Flu, September 11th, or AIDS.
Maybe not, but they were so opportunistic in exploiting them that they might as well have caused them. They want you to win the war on terror by being afraid.
Yeah, like, swim. In the city of San diego, where I live, the church of Scientology is located next door to SDG&E, the dominant local utility. They also have paid shills placed across the county.

No, Vista mostly looked badly because it required obscene amounts of resources and still ran slow as shit.

Read it and weep. It seems our megalomaniacal overlords found a new pet issue since thinking of the children and terrorism are going outta style.
They should bring back Michael Sims and have him fist-fight KDawson, 'cuz Mikey don't take shit from no-one.
