Being a victim of these worm attacks is more like having your car keyed. Having your system cracked personally by an individual is more like rape.

Being raped and having your system cracked are the same thing? Rape leave scars and mental anguish that remain for your *entire* life.

The effect of having your system cracked will last until you re-install your OS.

You are a fuck-tard.

I think it's arrogant and ignorant to impose your values and standards on someone else's free speech. Would you like these sites to conform to your litmus test for accuracy?

I think you're full of shit.

Well, if you actually took the time to like at this submitters 'benchmark', it nothing but a poorly written microbenchmark. It provides no useful information what-so-ever.

So, how is it a poorly written benchnark?
