  1. Acronyms Parents Should Know on WTF? NC Offers to Replace 10,000 License Plates · · Score: 1

    Did anyone read these acronyms? They are seriously like unbelievably unused or at least 90% of them are unused. Plus I don't know who would use them some of them have 7 letters like what time of acronyms has seven letters that isn't the name of an organization. Whoever wrote them needs to STFU.

  2. Re:Then STOP releasing the product! on Bill Gates Chews Out Microsoft · · Score: 1

    I agree that this email doesn't really sound like it is from Bill Gates, I'm sorry, but the person who is writing this email doesn't seem very tech savy. Like not knowing what do to when it gives you an Open or Save prompt? Bill would know that you can do either, and that the save just saves the install executable file to the hard drive rather than in the temporary files. The person who wrote this just doesn't sound like the way Bill speaks and doesn't seem as intelligent as Bill.

  3. What is going on in this compant's network. on Man Fired When Laptop Malware Downloaded Porn · · Score: 1

    First thing I would like to know is if the company is even running any type of web washer than would block sites like this so that the porn sites couldn't be looked at in the first place. So that if they found the internet temp files they would look at the box for malware and what not. The next thing that puzzles me, is how the company's network security guy wouldn't catch all of that bad traffic going through the port, unless he like the person that re-imaged his laptop neglected to do their job. Lastly, the company must be running Altiris or a similar program to manage the desktops which also makes me wonder why they were able to catch the internet temp files, but not all the malware. Even if his laptop wasn't getting updates the network people should have known if they actually were doing their jobs. I would say that company will lose a pretty hefty lawsuit within the next year, for their brash actions and multiple technological screw ups.
