I usually spend my free time on something else than my job, thank you very much. If I want to learn something that is necessary for a job I have my employer pay for a course.
You place a valid remark and then completely nullify it by posting a very unfriendly and immature sentence that shows nothing but contempt for people with different ideas than you. It's a miracle that you aren't modded down Troll.
Oh come on, that's ridiculous. You can blame Anerica for a lot of things, but not this. Blame our own politicians (I'm Dutch too) who try to solve every problem with more suppression and threats of severe punishments.
You forget that they themselves will be just as trackable. As a politician I would be very worried about that. For some reason though, they seem to not care, which I find weird. So either they really don't care, or they just have not clue. What do you think it is?;)
I get empty pages when I turn to the websites of Optics Express and Optics letters to find the articles mentioned in the 'article' that was linked to. Can someone point me to the pdfs of the articles?
I never understood why a TomTom or similar device has to display a map of the surroundings of the vehicle. It distracts from the driving and it's useless unless you know where you are, in which case you don't need the TomTom anyway. You only need the voice.
Oops sorry, I already forgot part of the conversation contained just what you described. I even answered to that with a remark that got +5 Insightful. My sincere apologies. If I could delete my post I would have done so.
What has that to do with my remark, or even the conversation here? Never was anything like you just described suggested. Just face it: some people have more than other people. What people do with their money is teir business, not yours. Someone who drives this Bugatti telling someone who drives a Ford Focus to 'stop being jealous' is NOT a total asshole. And there are people in the world who can afford to own a car AND give to charity.
Would you say all that in the poor guy's face? I bet you wouldn't. Watch your language. You are incredibly rude to him. Ignorance is not the same as stupidity. You are stupid to post such language; the guy you answered is just ignorant.
My mother has an HP laptop with about the same specks as my MBP. It always amazes me how horribly slow Vista is, especially when changing users. Where on the Mac it takes about 5 s to log out, on Vista it seems to take at least 20 s. My mother is happy with her computer, and it works fine except for the snail-like pace with which some commands are carried out.

It's strange that politicians and other managers seem to have a totally different idea of the meaning of the word 'security' than other people.
Not everyone in Africa is starving and homeless. In fact, most people there do have a roof above their heads, and food.
Thank you!
Show me where I am complaining.
Forget it. They will just buy a new computer because their old one is 'broken.'

Or: "Google it", or in friendlier times: "Are you too stupid to Google it, you moron?"

As I recall most kids in the 1980s couldn't care less about BASIC or assembler. They just wanted to play games on their home computers.
I was babbling with my brain switched off. I'm very sorry. It won't happen again, I promise to do my best.

My thoughts exactly.
I hope he's not old enough to have his driver's licence yet. And thanks for the thumbs up!

You can say that to everyone who owns a car.
GM owns Volkswagen? That is news to me.
Wow did that guy get what he deserved!
What has this got to do with fair use?
That's interesting. How does it handle old games that still run well on XP?
