Heh, yeah it is true. The copyright infringing lawyer simulator is just another freeloading right wing teabagger. They don't respect copyright laws, game laws, the constitution, women who aren't barefoot and pregnant or much of anything else. The whackjob probably has been standing out in the rain too long and needs to change the teabag on it's forehead.
An excellent application for my patent pending micro image tape which will be available with images of a wide range of characters including Johnny Cash, John Wayne, Elvis, Beavis & Butthead, Bugs Bunny and of course my preferred choice, Taz.
I have been around a while (I even had one of those wire wrapped IBM PCs a while back) and I have always thought that all Microsoft products were open sores. I guess I missed something along the way.
I suspect there is some behind the scenes aspect to this they don't want you to know. I raise this possibility because I have advocated and implemented it as a solution for others. When relatives asked me 'how to get rid of the billy office nag or the billy I can't read my own file format sickness' I just tell them "toss it and get Open Office. It supports the current formats, is more interoperable, and is free!". It works every time. If MS is counting the pirated copies as market share (which I have no doubt they are) then my action and those like me results in depletion of that 'market share'.
Microsoft Office has gone the way of Trumpet Winsock in my book, overchargus obsoletus extremus.
If you have a large number of street facing certs the wildcard is the most cost effective solution anyway but for lower volumes I use individual certs as well.
It has some cost but the reduction in uninformed user headaches is well worth it.
History has shown that Microsoft can and will go out of it's way to earn inspiring magnitudes of disdain for itself.
If you don't like it, well, give me a $3000 rebate for money I wasted on the OS/2 1.0 SDK way back when and we can talk.
Perhaps they deserve some credit but due to a long standing pattern of debit overdrafts I will wait for the dust to settle to see if it is in fact merited before extending it.
I was going to say gee there must be a decline in the number of discovered compromises but I guess that accounts for the 3% coverage they have. I did heard a rumor that they are coming out with a new phone, the Flop-Phone.
Since all this political mire is becoming so deep I have been trying to think of a good game angle that would require minimal effort to roll out but could adequately ridicule politifools in a appropriately warped manner.
Imagine waxing all the idiots, elephant guns, mule launchers, exploding teabags, and another unelectable wannabe turned victim around every corner. Collect PAC money, rob the citizenry, pay off the mob, sell worthless stock, pull off billion dollar ponzi schemes and more.
The spewing of colorless metaphors, the wasting of valueless time. I have foreseen it.
It is sad, IBM used to be much more ethical but now "anything to make a buck" has decayed to "anything to make a shareholder buck" I have been IBM free for several years now and I am glad to stay that way. There are better clients and opportunities even in this tough market. The ongoing humor is getting these every week now... "IBM Opportunity for IT Infrastructure Architect - GTS-xxxxxxx"
Sorry but you are wrong. I quit dealing with IBM and heavy H1B users like them because the angle is hire domestic skilled labor to train cheap barely skilled or unskilled H1Bs that have been hired and passed off as having skills. I have my pick of places to work I just don't train H1B people anymore. I make less but I don't have to clean up huge messes anymore.
Actually I would like to see how fast I could go round and round in a traffic circle with one before launching onto one of the exit vectors. Electromotive breaking, stellar acceleration, hopefully it has a gforce comp active suspension too.
Yep, I could demonstrate how not to drive this car and have a great deal of fun doing it;)
"Hell, the data center I run makes millions every hour, but I don't expect that I should make 7 or 8 figures because of it."
Well I think you should, and you should get one of those fluffy shiny heavy gold parachute dealies too and some authentic Cuban cigars (the huge stogie kind that smell good) as long as you give me one.
Face it, Ohio is an openly crooked place where you are required live in fear of cops.
Dirty cops are dirty cops, Ohio is a police state.
I wondered why the Ohio plates always hung out in the left lane dragging ass when they are here.
You can spray Lysol on shit all day, and at the end of the day it is still shit, even if a crooked judge says it isn't.
Unless you know them or someone more powerful than them, you lose.
To quote "Patrolman Henry Hill, Colorado Springs PD"... (truly the biggest rolling pile of crooked lowlife fat slob shit disguised as a cop I have encountered in my life)
"I don't need to hear your side of the story. It is your fault and you are getting a ticket."
This loser later committed blatant perjury against me in El Paso county court to protect his drinking buddy who had rear ended me.
Some cops are good, some cops are fair, some cops are bad, some cops are just garbage with a badge.
I'll just skip Ohio since the true distance between 'estimating speed' and 'just making shit up' is just a fat crooked fucker with a quota eating a donut and hiding in the ditch with the rest of the roadside trash.
Fuck Ohio, it's dirty cop/judge show, and all the slow cowering idiots from there who block the left lane on I-95.
You can really only have a loss if the product would have actually been sold in the first place.
If a billion machines are running DungoSoft Doornob 2100 with the exploding back orifice extensions and nobody has paid me, how much have I lost.
If the list price is 29,999.95, I could naively claim that I am out 29,999,950,000,000.00, or around 30 trillion dollars.
But the reality is that if only 1 of the 1,000,000,000 copies of the product would have actually been purchased had the user been forced to pay my assertions would be well, questionable.
Then there is the Vista people running XP fiasco. Many people are still running XP because vista was(is?) so pathetic that when they bought brand new machines, the defective fraudware shipped on them had to be replaced in order to return them to a functional state.
How much did Billy steal from us when he ripped off everybody and tried to sell you an 'upgrade' to downgrade you XP.
Imaginary theft may be over $51B but I would assert that real theft (actual lost $) is in fact less than 5% of that.
As you draw nearer you determine that the noises are coming from a sad apple sack whining and scheming with it's fleet of lawyers.
"Uh, can we sue him?", "Can we have Interpol ransack his house?", "Can we have the Queen behead him and say it was an accident?", "Hmm, okay, I guess will just fabricate some more monopoly objective disguising BS and write another laughable open letter".
Hey there's the answer to the housing issue. A lot like cash for clunkers, just no cash. "Sorry man you only have coax, and see this, this is that dreadful catnothing red/green/yellow/black untwisted stuff. This house is totally obsolete, you need to scrap it and start over."
No problem, put a cmts head end in your garage and a cable modem in every room, fire up DOCSIS and start charging your kids for network service. "Uh, yeah, you can get unlimited bandwidth for $99, oh and bundles, we have bundles too.." Bundle up, cough up, it beuuutiful. "Sorry we spontaneously reset Bit Torrents..."
BPFH (bastard parent from hello operator, give me number nine)
Yeah, but my bionic eye (I bought it on the down low from Steve Austin a while back after his show was cancelled) will be able to glaze over and jack all the data from a mile away if they have a window.

I do deploy them but I do avoid getting robbed by Verisign for these and other certs by shopping around.
Currently I pay around $10 a year for individual host certs, and $126 a year for wildcards.

I didn't know that but I can say I am not surprised.
They don't seem to be on a path to improving in any case.

I know, it sounds stupid, but I have seen I don't know how many people blasting Wikipedia for the action of Wikileaks.
A brain is a really good thing. I think everyone should have one.
Geek girls rule! (and Steve is probably calling the cops right now.)
Actually I would like to see how fast I could go round and round in a traffic circle with one before launching onto one of the exit vectors. Electromotive breaking, stellar acceleration, hopefully it has a gforce comp active suspension too.

I wonder if it will have an image of Steve with a head that spins all the way around on power up?

Because you would want to intern the controller in carbonite with it's mother to preserve it for the outdated lame game console resurrection.

MS EULA: You don't really own this bathroom fixture, we do, and we can drop the big and final load in it whenever we wish.
Sorry Billy, your device has ring around the collar, and all the kings men wouldn't waste their time duct taping a bricked Xbox back together again.
Or they were concerned that the disease might be contagious and they didn't want to get too close.
