I was thinking the same thing. If they are going to allow him a telepresence why not do it in a state with a decent education system. One not becoming dominated by people wanting to teach Creationism in a biology class.
Gigabyte made the list of MB manufacturers I pass over, them and ASRock will never find their way into another build I do. I gave up on Gigabyte after trying 2 boards in succession and having the same boot issues with both.
Well yeah great but that is a business page not your personal FB page. I mentioned using it to promote business if you read the post, and you can create all the seperate pages you like for businesses.
Really, I have to know what business do you work in that facebook is a necessity? I have friends in a prett wide range of industries and I've never even heard any of them mention anything of that sort. We do use it to create fb pages to promote small businesses we collaberated in but required for an employee?
I won't go into whether or not releasing gm organisms into the environment is a good idea, I'll leave that up to people better educated in genetics. I would have to ask the question though, if these mosquitos have a shortned life span wouldn't it reduce the chance that they would have an opportunity to breed? Might it not have been more effective to introduce a gene that caused all male offspring to slow and inhibit breeding?

I own a duplex and live on one side a friend and his family on the other. I do all the pc maintenance. There are 4 windows and 2 linux boxes in the house total. None of them has ever had an issue with a virus. Security software and informed users are key. Even the kids in our house know better than to install untrusted programs. Educate your users man best you can it helps.
honestly i haven't had any issues with malware on my android phone. I did install the Lookout app that has anti-virus but I installed it more for the data back up and ability to locate the phone via website if it is stolen. IMO Anti-malware software is generally a good idea on any web enabled device for the simple fact that if there is a security hole to exploit in a device someone will write an exploit for it eventually.
and so what happens when something like the pdf exploit ruins their "just works" atmosphere. Problem is in many cases they are still fucked and now have to overpay to get a fix instead of having eduscated themselves on how to avoid the problem. It really doesn't matter how you frame it, it is intellectual laziness and i have no sympathy for those who fall victim to it. The security of those platforms are an illusion the sooner you realize that and get on with educating yourself the better.
It's not elitism to expect that someone could run proper security software. If you use M$ products they even provide a nice security suite for free. I honestly don't believe it's too much to ask of people to be involved in learning the basic maintenance of their possessions. I don't know alot about cars but I do know how to do an oil change. I don't work in construction but I have learned to do some of my own home repairs. What you are advocating for is company sponsored intellectual laziness. Sorry I can't support that.
Horrible place to use this but it applies in lesser circumstances as well as greater.....
Those who would trade freedon for security deserve neither.
Learn to secure your own damn box.
Barter is a great way to do business. I trade stuff from my garden to the neighbor, who raises chickens, for eggs. I need a new front step built for my porch so I rebuilt a PC for a mason I know he is pouring my new step when the weather gets decent in spring. I do business by barter anytime I can and definitely encourage everyone to do the same.
unfortunately true but much of that money is used to get re-elected. If enough of their voting base is telling to vote for something or be booted next election they are likely to listen. It doesn't have to be a majority either just enough of a vocal minority to get their attention.
So contact your representatives and voice your opinion. If you don't have their contact info it's easy enough to look up online or if you happen to have an android phone download the "Congres" app. It will give you the contact info of your local congressional representatives. Part of the reason that lobbyists have so much power is that ordinary people don't inundate their reps with opinions and facts the way that special interests do. So contact them and express your opinion. They won't completely ignore it if enough of their constituency speaks up. So you can either bitch online or call the people who can have an impact. I've already contacted my reps concerning net neutrality, here's hoping anyone with an intelligent opinion here does the same. It's your government folks participate or don't bitch when you don't get what you want.
Southwestern Bell is one of the companies that was created when the original AT&T company was broken up. Essentially one of the child companies grew and swallowed up most of the other "Bells". The company also controls what was Cingular Wireless and the original AT&T wireless. Is there really so much competition now that the FCC should have allowed these mergers? Considering the new AT&T encompasses not just landline but wireless, television and internet services i'm not sure. In some areas they have a near monopoly on telecommunications.
that everyone who is here on slashdot, has a strong opinion about this and is a U.S. citizen is taking a few momnets to contact the FCC with their thoughts. It's easy enough to bitch about the way our society is going and how ignorant governemt agencies are but the truth is many civil servants do take input presented in an intelligent manner. Everything that happens in this country is brought on by the action or inaction of it's citizenry. Sadly inaction and complacency seem to have become the order of the day.

I wish I had a mod point for you sir. First good laugh I've had all day.
Not that I agree with the OP, but how the fuck do you call India a black nation? Please say you aren't that dumb. Please be trolling.
LOL AHAHAHA!

No it doesn't mean anything like "old lady" it would in fact be like calling them whore. Which is essentially what squaw means.

A bottle of wine and a few lines of blow, and then she would become truly interesting to be with.
But be careful you are advocating for personal responsibility there are some on slashdot who would think you elitist for spouting such things :)

After taking a moment to review my girlfriends shoe collection, I'm convinced this is another instance of women choosing form over function.
Interesting idea.
All of those things have been hacked before.... so your point being.
