I don't really mean any offense to you personally, but you just stated, in a long winded example, two things that everyone here already knows.
Someone trying to sell something beefed up the drama to make it more exciting and interesting and sell more products. We know that happens.
People are too self involved and egotistical to think they are incorrect in their assumptions and therefore everyone else must be wrong. They can't see how others can see it any other way.
Isn't Juniper quite a bit more expensive than Sonicwall? Also the AIM thing doesn't surprise me as that is probably something many companies want to (for some pretty good reasons) block.
In spite of all the shit they get, the Christians I've met in life have generally been very friendly and nice to me. Just good folks who believe what they believe.
They seem nice, right? But did you know if you give them 15 minutes they will try to convince you that you are evil? That you will spend eternity in eternal suffering? They will not meet this fate, because their belief is correct. But your's is wrong and you will get yours one day.
Just because they wait until death to tar and feather you doesn't make them any better than a group that does it the day they meet you. Weaker minds will not know how to refute the crap they spew, and will give in to the fear. Christians are a great example of taming your religion once you have a good number and using social pressure and fear to accomplish goals. They use force to spread their believe; it is just a refined version of force.
But can you see where the author was going? You know, not all things are black and white and some are even meant to be taken "with a grain of salt". The point was that we have seen evidence of evolution, but we just haven't see it to the point where a new species is created yet. How much longer before a chihuahua can't breed with *any* other dog currently listed as the same species? Won't it happen eventually?
Just remember if you argue that dog breeds are different species, especially the case of the mastiff and chihuahua, or the teacup yorkie and newfoundland, these different species are verifiably the result of intelligent design. Selection was involved, but not natural selection.
Two completely different things: intelligent design of an entire planet, creating life from nothing and selectively breeding animals to enhance traits.
I am not sure if you are trying to argue against evolution, playing devil's advocate or what, but please explain to me how humans can manage to reproduce the results of a natural process with some sort of "intelligence" and some sort of "design"? That is just like religious people... find a way to make all attempts to contradict them wrong before they even have a chance, regardless of any real merit.
I am generalizing (about middle eastern people I guess); I find generalizing a bit easier to convey a general feeling. I don't remember the last time the KKK even made the local news, much less national headlines and killing thousands with terrorist actions on nearly a daily basis. Next.
You seem so sure there is only one reason to change passwords I guess you have never dealt with internal password issues. A colleague looking over-the-shoulder(bolder-holder, yeah, I'm 10 for a moment) can do far more damage than a "hacker" in certain situations. Or if an employee shares their password (that would *never* happen, right) at least you know that after a while they won't have it anymore. Think about getting an HR password and what that could do for employee morale. That isn't to say it will prevent all problems, but at least they won't have the password FOREVER!
Do you really thing that monocrop agriculture could destroy an entire civilization? Oh wait...
Are we talking about sprinkling fertilizer and water on computers? Oh wait...
And when NASA attempted to build the ultimate fail-safe computer system for the Shuttle do you really think they wasted their money having 1 of the 5 CPUs built, designed, and programmed by an entirely separate organization than the primary contractor and prohibiting the two design groups from communicating with one another? Oh wait...
Are we talking about a company with the ability to spend billions of dollars and years on a single software release? Probably not...
It's not the only reason. The obvious counter-example is IIS vs Apache, where IIS has gotten owned more than Apache, despite Apache's vastly greater marketshare.
Start with IIS 6 and that isn't really true anymore. It is widely accepted by those without a bias that IIS 6 is as good as equivalent Apache releases (when properly configured, of course).
Do you really think having to write software on 3 different systems will result in less malware? Do you think companies will double the development staff to accommodate the differences in systems? I think a 33/33/33 split would make software companies have to support more variances, but probably not do any as well as they do now. And yes, if you get that split, and the split is equally distributed among the different levels of technical ability, you would start to see malware for Linux and OSX; do you really think a Windows user that has just "clicks thru" wouldn't do the same on Linux (or type sudo first or whatever the equivalent is on OSX)?
Well Islam is the official religion of Iran, so the Muhammad part is right. The Jihad have quite a few supports from Iran, and no doubt get quite a bit of money from there, so that is probably not too far off. Besides, it was a joke... jokes mix reality with fantasy in a way that makes it comical.
I'll just say what I feel... if Muslims really *really* didn't like Jihad and Hamas, they would eventually lose some power. But somehow these people are getting money, guns, bombs and training. It really doesn't seem that the Muslim community as a whole *really* wants them to stop.
Now as far as cowboy hats and southern accents to impersonate Americans... they are probably attempting to portray stupidity. The part of the country you live in may not wear Wranglers and cowboy hats, but trust me, there are plenty of idiots in every corner of America.
Perhaps the results of the load testing software could be required to be disclosed, then we would see that for x watts you got x computing power. I agree that you have to take computational power with electricity used, all I am saying is I would rather be provided the raw numbers and allowed to make that call rather than have some agency try to slap a sticker on it labeling it power efficient. Anyone with a geek card will be able to weigh these numbers pretty easily to get a good result (you were able to prove that by your argument and you didn't even actually need numbers to know that), especially those that will be making purchasing decisions for a data center (I hope!).
I mean why try to make a broad, all-encompassing standard for energy efficiency to try to slap a sticker on the ones that "pass"? This works well for a product that is as relatively simple as a washer, dryer, water heater, etc. but I think a better idea would be to have Dell post a 188/304 number on each server. The low is power pull when idle, the high is power pull when running some standard load test software.
But the real reason it is illegal is because Americans have the annoying habit to want to make anything they find morally wrong illegal. Simple as that. If they don't like it, don't want to do it, and don't want their kids to do it, they will try to make it illegal.
My opposition to profiteering from illegal activity is stronger than my belief that it falls under free speech.
How far of a jump is it to go from preventing two consensual adults acting in a manner that will not harm them, their children, my children, me or anyone else to a point where they also prevent two consensual adults from *speaking* in a manner that will not harm them, their children, my children, me or anyone else?
Yep, forgot about cscript having to be called from command line. Wouldn't you know when I try to talk some shit, I am wrong. Oh well, my apologies.
To your other post, negotiate is referring to Kerberos. I don't know why the don't call it Kerberos, but it relies on *negotiating* some crap (I cant remember details right now) and then sending credentials. Confusing, yes.
I know this is late and nobody will read it. Perhaps I will link to it when we inevitably talk about mpg's again.
First comparing the Prius and a Hummer is a stretch... how about the Civic (26/34) and Civic Hybrid (40/45). It is important to remember that hybrids get better MPG, but don't consume less energy. The miles per GALLON savings are only there because we are replacing the GALLON with KWH! And considering that there is a huge amount of power lost between coal then wires and transformers and then finally to your battery (which is a big environmental issue), I really doubt, in the long run, hybrids do much of anything for our planet. Now they might do something about the US and Europe's dependence on foreign oil, but not the planet as a whole.

If you really want to know what you can or cannot do with an Apple device or software, you should ask the people who know - experienced Apple users.
In my head, that would play out like asking a hipster what music he doesn't listen to and expecting anything other than smartass reply.

I really want to hear your reason for linking those two together. I can't wait to tear it apart.
Bobbitt is an example of a physical mutation... nothing at all like a genetic mutation. You should have learned this in Biology 1 in HS.
Why should we respect the dead? They're dead, they don't care if we respect them or not.
Your grandmother was a whore.
It is the those that loved them still living that you can respect.

Overrated? WTF, it was only at 1 and at least a somewhat valid point. Ass-hat mod.
There are no male hookers?
