It's a much better company since the guy from India started running it. When asked for details of Microsoft's sickness, Nadella described it as a particularly virulent form of Ballmeritis.
Perhaps the money would be better spent building a truck stop with a bunch of flying saucers in the parking lot. Surely it's universally understood that if the parking lot is full it must be a good place to stop. Maybe have a sign offering discounts for aliens. Rather than a beacon. That's just stupid.
Twenty years ago, someone came up with the idea to take already existing news stories,
post a link to them and let people provide the content with their opinions. In return give
them the pleasure of viewing your advertisements which generates millions of dollars for
the company which bought the original idea. Yes, I believe some self congratulations is in
order. Bastards;^)
With almost 800 murders in Chicago last year and ahead of that pace in 2017, they don't need more computer programmers. They need a U.N. Peacekeeping force. They haven't been teaching anyone how to shoot guns in high school either, yet somehow they learned on their own to be quite adept at it.
Calling bullshit. There's no nazis in Canada. Except maybe a few left from WW II. Plus there are hate speech laws and they've been throwing any holocaust deniers in jail for many years. The politicians here bend over backwards to kiss the immigrant's ass.
Canada even set up a welcome party for all the Haitians who crossed illegally into
the country this summer. Who else welcomes Haitians to their country?
Tyrell: The facts of life... to make an alteration in the evolvement of an organic life system is fatal. A coding sequence cannot be revised once it's been established.
Batty: Why not?
Tyrell: Because by the second day of incubation, any cells that have undergone reversion mutation give rise to revertant colonies, like rats leaving a sinking ship; then the ship... sinks.
Batty: What about EMS-3 recombination?
Tyrell: We've already tried it - ethyl, methane, sulfinate as an alkylating agent and potent mutagen; it created a virus so lethal the subject was dead before it even left the table.
Batty: Then a repressor protein, that would block the operating cells.
Tyrell: Wouldn't obstruct replication; but it does give rise to an error in replication, so that the newly formed DNA strand carries with it a mutation - and you've got a virus again... but this, all of this is academic. You were made as well as we could make you.
Batty: But not to last.
Tyrell: The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long - and you have burned so very, very brightly, Roy. Look at you: you're the Prodigal Son; you're quite a prize!
Batty: I've done... questionable things.
Tyrell: Also extraordinary things; revel in your time.
Batty: Nothing the God of biomechanics wouldn't let you into heaven for.
Yes I understand that Red Hat offers the source code and allows CentOS to operate. Yet if I google "Red Hat linux working with NSA backdoor"
there are all kinds of stories but none for example Slackware or Debian or Ubuntu working with NSA. And there are suspicions about just
what their end game is with systemd. Personally, I don't trust their ethics. Like any other corp they're greedy. Despite their protestations to
the contrary. Apparently now that Microsoft claims to be all "Open Source" the term lost any meaning it might have had.
Before today I never heard of HEIF photo format which is some sort of spinoff of HEVC video.
And apparently HEVC or H265 is the video format. More confusion.
Given what we all know about amazon, who would want to work for them? And if you wouldn't
want to work for them, why would you want to buy anything from them? They're too big already.

Yabba dabba do!

You mean shrinkage?
That's the sound of resounding indifference. Much like crickets chirping.
Won't be much of a party if some "malevolent force" crashes it. But if it makes some old hippies happy count me in.

If they became sentient, they could communicate with each other. As in "Look at the sadsack that I got stuck with".
And don't forget all those videos on youtube of Queen Elizabeth being a shape shifting reptilian. What's up with that?
I believe the free market solution was putting 300 million firearms into the hands of a disgruntled populace.
There was a young lady named Wu. Whose new iphone broke into two. To her dismay, The warranty did say. If you're too fat this could happen to you.

From what I've seen over the years, Stallman is usually right about everything and Shuttleworth is usually wrong.
Hard to get a gun but very easy for the gov't to take it from you if you step out of line. From a fellow Canadian. Face it, we live in a Nanny State.
How about catalytic converters for cows? Stupid enough?

Is there any "open source" company that's less "open source" than Red Hat? As i understand it, none of their software is free.
World's ending Saturday.

It still makes me laugh when thinking of the look on his face as he "engaged" with the Orgasmatron.
If this succeeds their next project is a robot prostitute, the Ho-dega.
