  2. Re:Exploitative Assholes on Google's Streetview Privacy Snafu Prompts Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Like you manage your car when you need to rotate the tires and get the oil changed correct? Because they are so easy to do and maintain, you should just do it yourself and not waste money with that hiring a mechanic.

    A car analogy explains perfectly what's wrong with your outburst. You need to start managing your anger first and foremost.

    Also thanks for putting words in my mouth saying the ISP owns the WiFi, they can't. The water utility doesn't own the water coming out of your faucet either.

    Some people are not going to manage anything, and you can't change that, and they'll always try to take responsibility away from themselves, no matter how drastic you make the punishment for ignoring it. So offer it and make it option and explain what can happen if you do not do it yourself or accept their help.

    God forbid, a user that doesn't know how to configure a properly secured wifi network?

    It should be up to the ISP to secure it. If your water utility springs a leak the water utility sends someone to fix it.

    That analogy is incorrect. The door doesn't exist. It's just a gaping hole in the wall of your house.

    I registered for Steam just because of the free Portal and run it in Wine through Playonlinux. When the native client is out I plan to buy the Valve Pack.

    Just to let valve know they have $100 guaranteed from me at least when the native client is released :3

    The truth is stranger than fiction. I'm also tired of women always playing the victim when they can be just as malicious and stupid as men.

    Completely true story:

    I broke up with my girlfriend a few weeks before my vacation. I have a high sex drive and she knew about this. She also knew that I masturbate into paper towels sometimes and throw them away when I'm lazy because my room is far from my bathroom. When I went on vacation I forgot to take out the trash... And I came in to my house to find it broken into with all my trash scattered around and a voicemail saying thanks for the child...

    Of course it didn't work but still, WTF.
