  1. Re:Think about who they may know on Ask Slashdot: Is It Ever OK To Quit Without Giving Notice? · · Score: 1

    So you've given two week notices to all people you've fired? If not, you're simply being a huge hypocrite for holding your employees to a standard you don't hold yourself to.

    I agree BUT, burning your bridges is never a smart idea if it is not necessary,

    It's not burning a bridge. It's treating the company as they would treat you. Besides, many companies will simply walk you out the door after giving notice. So all that courtesy that you were trying to extend to them is thrown back in your face.

    That's all good in theory until they list you as terminated for job abandoning.

    They weren't saying to no longer show up to work without saying anything. They are talking about telling telling the boss that you quit and then leaving right then and there. That is not "job abandoning". It's quitting.

    Well, Apple might as well just shut up shop now. Random Internet guy is gonna stop buying their products. Apple better be quick to make a press release to try contain the near-irreparable damage that your post to Slashdot is going to do to their bottom-line and stock price.

    Yes, because asking for actual evidence to back up wild speculation is clearly astro-turfing. How dare them!

    Tons of people. Over 200 million units were sold in 2015. And just Apple alone they've sold 26 million in the first two quarters of 2016. Your anecdotes don't match reality by any measure.

  15. Re:Illegally? on Chrome Bug Makes It Easy To Download Movies From Netflix and Amazon Prime · · Score: 0

    Is it truly illegal, or just against terms of service.

    It's illegal without a license to do so.

    However, illegality needs to be determined by law, and not contract.

    It is determined by law. Are you just completely ignorant of copyright statues?

    So according to your logic if your family reports you to the FBI then they should just simply arrest you whether or not actionable cause exists? You want them to just violate somone's civil liberties until they find something to arrest him for? It's amazing to hear that someone is actually mad at the FBI for actual staying within their constitutional authority

    That is delightful fantasy. The Republican party has zero history as a party of "small government". It's simply empty rhetoric.

    While I mostly agree, your claim that no one paid attention is not true. The FBI checked him out multiple times but found nothing of cause to be able to investigate him further. They very much did pay attention, they just didn't have any evidence to do anything. So, as I said, unless you wanted them to more flagrantly ignore people's civil liberties, the FBI had their hands tied. For once, they weren't massively overreaching their authority.

    Wouldn't matter. If you're hell-bent on killing a bunch of people, no laws are going to stop you.

    Huh? How did they do nothing? The FBI checked him out multiple times but had no actionable cause.

    Unless you want the FBI more flagrantly violating civil liverties there was nothing they can do. And these expanded powers will do fuck all either.
