Every time an ISP starts hijacking NXDOMAIN responses, dozens of comments suggesting that this should not be done by the ISP but in the browser get modded +5 and are generally agreed with.
So MS made their browser do it. What is the problem?
(Other than using a monopoly in one market to get one in another.)
Sure, they could make something that sells well and is inexpensive. But the profit margins would be low, and it would upset their golfing buddies from the oil companies.
Better than a programmer disappearing off the face of the earth leaving code he wrote on a workstation backup in a closet somewhere, were it will never be able to be used by anybody else.
First off, it's been said that people only use 10% of their actual brain power.
Lots of stupid things have been said. People generally only use 10%-20% of their brains at any given moment. They use nearly all of it through the course of the day.
Emulating x86 on x86 - low overhead. Emulating POWER on x86 - high overhead. Emulating quantum computer on x86 - extremely high overhead. Emulating brain on x86 - ?
Bollocks. If it is bed time and you are angry, your tiredness is making you even more angry and irrational. If you just go to bed, half the time you will not even remember that you were angry once morning comes. Just go to bed.
Is it sad that I am more likely to recognize you and your posts by your sig than your name or UID?
It is not sad. It is just because the UID is in a different color and on a different background and thus easy to learn to skip while reading comments, and the sig is not.
TPM is only good if you trust it to be secure. I think the issue a lot of F/OSS people have is that you are taking Intel's word for the security of the TPM.
Having a hands free conversation (I feel) is no different than having a conversation with whoever is in your car.
Emphasis mine. You may feel that way, but you are wrong. Because of the extremely decreased audio quality with respect to in person, it takes a lot more concentration to talk to somebody over the phone.

Only if you categorize DOS attacks as exploits.

Isn't Linux a Unix variant?
Bingo.
It does not work for every non-browser application that uses DNS.
No, every protocol directed at an address obtained by DNS is affected.
Microsoft are adapting quite well. They are making a ton of money by screwing everybody else.
They may not have many friends, but they are surviving.

What on Earth are you doing to your poor laptops?
If not, the CA should not have issued the cert in the first place. Which CA was it?
Why would they possibly need the latest kernel version?
I would think the average time between bathroom breaks is shorter than the average time between food breaks. That should be the goal.
The Republicans do not think the markets were not free enough to prevent collapse.
They think that they can get more power and money for themselves by promising a freer market.
Just like the Democrats think they can get more power and money for themselves by promising more regulation.
They divided the population neatly in two parts and picked their positions to get more power and money.
Voters must be the dumbest motherfuckers on Earth to think that the major parties have the interests of the people in mind.
How hard is it to prove he has the money?
No they wouldn't. There is nothing wrong with passengers using cell phones.

What, you are unable to pull over and shut the car off before calling 911?!
I have seen many computers set up with the wrong DPI for the monitor.
If you have not tested your backup system, you do not have a backup system.
