So essentially, these guys are now forced to increase overhead by working more, and using more and more exotic techniques to save cash.. essentially he is telling these guys "Look, I don't give a damn about the project, but by god if you got 1$ over budget I will kill you."
1. They felt there name had not been in the news paper recently enough.
2. They have heard of threats to blow lithium batteries up in a plane, possibly causing some kind of mid-air disaster. Can you honestly tell me that the x-ray machine guy has enough knowledge to recongnize a cd player LOOKING device that has 8 batteries inside, is actually a small bomb? Certainly I am talking *very* small. But, combine this with some hard liquor and you hav a much larger bomb.
So essentially..
Sony, one of the largest laptop manuf.'s, doesn't make bluray's for the laptop?? I don't count making some assbackwards second design for one type of dvd player to count.
Its a simple premise that the customer is at fault. Why would it be the companies job to ensure I didn't walk around passing out my CC#? Its not. Thats why its 3.2 billion $'s GONE.
Anyday TV stars might only make 90 grand a year, producers the same, directors maybe 200k. Soon there insane pay rates might drop in order to let the media giants profit slightly! OH THE INSANITY
Actually to be fair, you should just RTFM anyways. This is a very wide spread misconception, that somehow reading the manual isn't required. Its a manual, to explain how everything works. So go read it. If you then need help, feel free to call me, or stop by! I'm locating right next to the break room with the big sign that says the Radio Freq. inside will kill you. Its just a joke! Come on in!
Scientists announced today that after extensive research they have decided that murder, unless in direct self defense, is still murder.
This guy was going to kill someone, somewhere, somehow. The fact that he a rapist living near him means nothing. If he didn't have the database, he'd grab the yellowpages.
This simply further illustrates the need for better IT proffessionals. Most IT departments are looked at like maintence departments(In non IT firms). Something they are REQUIRED to have but not greatly to there advantage. Yes we introduce newer better software to increase productivity but we do it at a cost. So when it comes to IT security the budget is always smaller then should be. No one wants to pay more for the janitors to clean the locks every week. The locks still require keys and that is good enough. No one cares that the locks can be picked in 2 seconds.. as long it needs a key its fine. The same with IT. No one cares that you can be hacked because you send all you're data through unencrypted ethernet and that same network segment has a wifi-AP. You can't access either without a username or password.. right?!
Western Digital understands the primary use of the drive to be media sharing. As such, they cripple that option in order to maximize drive life time and make sure its REAL primary use is back ups. I for one thank our Access-Restring Overlords..

I'm confused..
I suppose the far most.. fuck you. lol :P
More IT jobs will be created in 2008? Wow.. what a suprise. Oh. My. God. Christ almighty, does every year need to have some HUGE problem?
Well you see, this is slashdot. Offtopic is actually a way to take out anger from your dog/cat/wife not putting out

Also.. I said we need better IT pro's because they need to push security more.. that wasn't clear at all. Sorry.
