360 TS is not malware. Caught cheating, in this case, means that 360 Total Security had Bitdefender engine turned on in advance. Normally, a user needs to click on the Birdefender icon and a switch above it to download the engine to use it. That's not hard to do. Since then a new basic version with Bitdefender preinstalled has been released. All 360 TS version work well as long as you download and automatically install the Bitdefender engine. The Avira engine can also be installed. I find the program to work quite well. On my business macines I use Kaspersky, which has been excellent for many years. If concerned about 360 TS, Panda, Avira, and Bitdefender have free versions available that are all quite good.
I was really looking forward to the first new episode where all of his voiced characters were caught in a nuclear/chemical smog that changed their voices. That might have been funny as hell.
Lenovo still uses TFT displays in high priced hardware. In this product line you pay an extra $200 to get an IPS display in the Z 360. Our business is a Lenovo authorized reseller. I do not understand why they do not put an IPS display in all their higher end gear. There shouldn't even be a TFT option at $1499. The $1699 model should be the only one available. Reduce the SKU's and hence you have less capital tied up. Sell better products, Lenovo. Your image is tarnishing more all the time. I expect more from the world's #1 PC maker than TFT junk.
Freedom Pop phone quality is too often like talking under water. The cost is great, but the service is horrendous. I prepaid for one year.. Afterward, I learned that the bad reviews were blocked to others. There is no Sprint voice service on Freedom Pop, It's all data. Their VOIP implementation is terrible. Speaking from experience I went back to Straight Talk and now have high quality voice again. If you want to try Freedom Pop, sign up for the free service before giving them any money at all and make sure to block "top off" the data as they do so when you still have 100 MB left to use.
Up until now Tracfone wouldn't even let me move a Straight Talk (a Tracfone company) phone onto Tracfone. They claimed they simply could not do it. Arguing that they could didn't help at all. Even with their statement that their phones will be unlocked if desired, I don't trust them to make unlocking easy for their users, or former users.
Dell, HP, and ThinkPads all still come with Windows 7 Pro preinstalled. Check NewEgg or Amazon for the Windows Pro laptops. A good one can be had starting at under $600, which should be more durable than the cheaper consumer grade laptops are.
Oracle, and other company's, opt out crapware installs is one reason that we install Unchecky on all customer's PC's that we service since almost everyone had Ask toolbars, but had no idea how it got installed. This will help the less aware customers avoid crud buildup in their systems, no thanks to a-hole companies like Oracle.
Writing about hard drives and not making periodic drive images onto a portable hard drive (removed when the image is done to avoid power surges killing it) is simply inexcusable. Andy Patrizio doesn't seem to be a tech writer that understands the tech he's writing about. Otherwise, he wouldn't put out the embarrassing news that he's too stupid to make a full image backup of his hard drive, Sad. I'll make sure I avoid what he writes in the future as I can't trust that he understands what he's writing about.
Why can't America recycle its own paper/plastic?

Recycling Is Dying

· Score: 2
I'm an American. We recycle in our home and business. It was my understanding that the paper/plastic stuff was being recycled here in America. Electronics were being shipped to China. The summary states that the overseas market for American recycled goods is drying up. I do not see why all of the paper/plastic that I recycle isn't recycled in the US, other than greed. Take what you can get for it locally,turn the paper into pulp and put the plastics into new goods, and stop complaining about cost. Recycling is getting more expensive like most other things. It's still better than putting it all in landfills.
Google Voice does a great job of blocking spam calls. I hope that Google never kills off Voice. It's so damn good. I've had it since it was Grand Central and was advertised as "one number for life".
Apparently, MS wants to pick up additional sales of XBox One. Smart move. They should have done this at release time. Better late than never. Now, 360 users will have a reason to upgrade as they should be able to play most games on the One.
What you wrote, Mr. AC, is just plain stupid. Good nutrition allows the brain to properly and fully develop. Poor nutrition prevents the same. IQ cannot be measured at birth. Any human given proper nutrition from birth will achieve their full intellectual potential when provided a good education in a mentally stimulating environment. IQ test results go up and down somewhat depending on the degree of alertness of the person taking the test. You sure wrote a lot of words to present so little of substance. Now, go eat some veggies, run a few laps, and then think about your state of mind. It could use some improvement.
If a server is exposed online it's already being attacked, probably at random and not machine targeted. Whether the attack succeeds or how far in the attack gets is another matter and depends on firewall settings, honeypots, etc. .
I question the choice of field of study. A Master of Philosophy isn't suited for much other than a part time teaching job. These days a PhD is important in a liberal arts field. I looked into the fields that were most likely to keep jobs in America. not replace people with robots, and make sure I'd enjoy it. It is unwise to chose a field solely on enjoyment. Employment needs to be considered if one is to make their way in the world. I went into the coatings industry and worked up the ladder. My advice is to choose wisely what you plan to do for the rest of your life. .

Maybe MS can sell the buildings back to Nokia so they wouldn't have to outsource the Android phones they'll put out next year.

This looks a lot like a publicity stunt and not at all for a brawl for "national pride".
At least your $500 downloaded porn was virus free back in the day.

Substitute "asshole" for "dick" to remove gender bias. The story remains the same.

When the nude subject is holding up the middle finger. That would seem rude. Not that middle finger. The one in the middle of each hand.
Thank you for your correction. English is both my first and second languages, depending on how much sleep I obtain. Cheers.

Antman porn using menacing micro-robot tentacles might make a good movie.
An autonomous flying car might be pretty safe. I'll wait for Google to run a couple million flight miles of tests before deciding on that, though.
Lately the FCC seems to be the only competent part of the federal government.
Dice Holdings, Inc. is now renamed DHI. They own /.
