    Much worse than space nutters are you miserable bean counters. Let's not do anything or go anywhere because "my God the expense!". Let's carry on with pointless resource ears to enrich the already insanely wealthy even further.

  2. Re: It's stupid on License Details Hint MS Undecided On Suing Users of Its Open Source Net Runtime · · Score: 1

    .NET 1.0 stuff will not run on the 4.5 run time without changes. Does that mean .NET has been abandoned? Was there no migration path to win32 for win16? OSS has a long history of dead projects too.

    What happens when it's no longer popular and the devs lose interest. Microsoft are highly unlikely to kill one of their very profitable areas especially now that the ability to leave them has never been easier.

    What is a professional developer to you then? Someone who refuses to let the computer do the repetitive stuff for you?

    As opposed to open source stuff which is just abandoned. You could pick it up yourself but the risk is just different not non-existent. Microsoft may well try to bully people who create new versions of ASP.NET but they're not going to kill their dev tools business any time soon.

    Only if you pretend that the cost of living is the same everywhere.

    People talk non stop about women's issues. I'd like people to talk about people's issues. Talking about how more men commit suicide than women is whining? Fuck you.

    It could be, however it quite often isn't. It would be much better to have one cable to the exchange that any provider can use to provide the service.

    And let's have all these companies do maintenance at different times. What a wonderful world that would be.

    So 20 different network cables, 10 gas pipes and 15 electricity cables all running to your property would be fine with you in the name of competition? Maintenance would be fun.

    Left and right are both useless but this is a private company.

    Yes I am aware. Did you even read my post? There's plenty of sexism directed at men and boys but it's ignored because men are all privileged rapists or something.

  15. Re: Breakthrough? on Microsoft Convinced That Windows 10 Will Be Its Smartphone Breakthrough · · Score: 2

    Yeah because someone with an income of $35000 in the US has exactly the same life as someone with the same income in India. Being in the top 1% of earnings is irrelevant if you live in a country with an expensive standard of living. Damn psychopaths wanting to feed their children and pay their rent.

    The sexist status quo? What might that be? More men than women committing suicide? Men getting longer prison sentences for the same crime? Men being discriminated against by the family courts? More men than women being homeless? Or are you referring to women having nasty things said to them on Twitter which of course has happened to no man ever.

  17. Re:Don't be lazy on Google Backs Off Default Encryption on New Android Lollilop Devices · · Score: 2

    It's spelled as Lollilop in the headline. Given that the name of the OS is Lollipop, it's a fairly glaring error.

    The title is Google Backs Off Default Encryption on New Android Lollilop Devices. That is a spelling mistake.

    It's not a grammar mistake it's a misspelling of the OS' name in the title of the story which is spelled as Lollilop

    Where in Europe are we talking about? The UK has only just withdrawn troops from Muslim Afghanistan and is currently bombing Muslim ISIS. The government also enacted the extremely unIslamic gay marriage law last year, so if the Muslims are taking over our country and imposing whatever on us then where are they?
