to send that particular information to... Or about, for that matter.
The thought makes me smile. Not only did they send a bunch of personal information out via e-mail, but they sent it to a bunch of hackers. Not only did they send a bunch of personal information to a bunch of hackers via email, but it was the personal information of those very hackers.
no wonder 18 - 25 year old females that i meet in this college town that is my home are seriously stupid. not only stupid, but brought up to believe that their looks are what will get them ahead in the world. so, even if they weren't genetically predisposed to being stupid (dad married for looks not brains, like his dad did, so on and so forth), they have been dumbed down by the same huge-tits-small-ass ideology that has many american men (all i can speak for) infatuated with young girls.
too bad the television doesn't promote the library as much as it promotes sixteen-year-old ass.
i think that ransomeware would the most profitable.
i know that if someone changed all my ink to fleshtones i might slowly revert to normality.
coughing up huge gouts of cash to keep it from happening seems an inevitability at that point.
i didn't say anything about not using industry standards, nor did i mention VMs. my comment was regarding netbooks and how much easier it would be for people to be able to install an operating system on a netbook (which don't come with an optical drive) FROM a USB thumb drive.
the.iso format (iso9660) is for CD/DVD media.
netbooks don't come CD/DVD drives.
that leaves you with the following choices for installation media: external CD/DVD drive or thumb drive (i know... network install is in that list too, but getting the wireless network up and running on a netbook before installing can be a bit much).
i downloaded a.img file of PC-BSD the other day. dd dumped it to my thumb drive, and i was up and running with a reboot to usb device.
look, the point is: microsoft needs to stay on top of things like an easier way to install to the quickly growing netbook market. if my options are 5 minutes worth of an ubuntu install (for free) vs. purchasing new hardware (external CD/DVD), to do a 1-2 hour windows install, for what? $100? $200?, on a machine that i only use for network fun; well... i'm afraid that i'd have to go for cheaper, faster, better over pricey, slow, and... well... slow.
clearly you have yet to install any of the various linux/bsd(s) that allow you to download a.img file which is then used with the dd command to dump on your thumb drive.
dd if=disk_image.img of=/dev/usb_drive (sda, sdb, whatever)
i've found that installing from a thumb drive is much faster, and performance on live distros makes you want to never touch a cd again.
if MS wants this OS to be on my netbook, why am i downloading an.iso instead of a.img? why is it such a chore to install a windows OS FROM a thumb drive?
why on earth should i have to restart my computer after installing a goddamn web browser? isn't that a bit much?
i mean... how tied into my system IS this thing?

yeah, it's like shooting your kid in the head so that they stop getting beat up at school.

i say stuff it all into a refrigerator.
I'm calling it GNUBSDEBIAN... or nubs, for short.

i'm not sure why the parent was modded "funny". if i remember correctly... the "conflict" was initiated by georgia. yes?
