Using a command line is like second nature to some people, yet most of my generation (born with the fall of the USSR) have never even seen one. Remember that what is simple and straight forward to you may become arcane and mysterious for the future users.
Unless the malware program actually deletes Spybot as well as AVG and also changes your DNS so it redirects to a phony chinese search site instead of Safer Networking's site. This happened to me not long ago.
I recently got one of thos fake AV, and I never clicked anything. It's not like they ask you all the time. No, I did not download SpecialVideoCodec.exe from searching "Extreme Midget Fart Porn XXX" on google. I was browsing a forum on cats and I suddenly had MalwareDoctor installed. Luckily I somewhat know my way around computers and only saw this as a challenge.
God, I use PCs at home and Macs at work. I absolutely loathe clicking FORCE QUIT on Pro Tools when it freezes (every 2 minutes). I have to click 20 times without it doing anything, with this fucking beachball laughing at me, pretending everything's alright and "just works".
Give me a good old "CTRL+ALT+DEL, Processes, click on Pro Tools, Delete" any time of the day:) Ugly, but it works.

Pardon my possible stupidity, but what was keeping us from putting the RAM a few feet from the CPU? The way I understand it, electrons don't move much slower than light. Of course you might lose current.
Amen, brother. Amen. Once I was working the sound system for a DJs night and one of them kept calling me a pussy for wearing earplugs. I blasted a 15 kHz sine in his monitoring headphones and told him that's what I heard 24/7 because I wasn't a pussy before. He stopped doing it:)
I don't know if you've played Resident Evil 5, but the Coop mode, apart from the fscked up menus, was a blast AND it followed the story. Basically your computer controlled partner in the game is playable by a friend OTI or on the couch next to you.

This pisses me off to no end. "China could care less" makes no fucking sense.
They will only be controlled if regular people are deluded into believing so and allow it.
I totally can't see that happening. Regular people being fooled by corporations, against their best interests? Nah....
Wait.... Did you just post a photo of your house, along with address and location of valuables? Genius.

Ah! Good to know.
Yes, I had it installed, got a virus and it actually managed to delete both programs.
I've yet to find a Monosodium glutamate bearing plant.
Could you elaborate on your custom HOSTS file?

The maximum amount paid for a bug is 1,377$ ? I guess someone at google played too much CS.
They have no interest in making sucky products and anything that masses of people buy almost definition cannot be a superior experience.
They have no qualms about selling sucky products, though. Have you visited the app store?
What if the line is balanced?
Well wether he sees a doctor or not, he still has diabetes. So yeah, that's pretty retarded.

Yeah, coming out my laptop.
Did you hear that irony passing by? WoOOOOOOoooooooosh
Yes, but they had to deal with a fraction of the traffic they get now, while only displaying text and a few 100x100 gifs.

Your run-of-the-mill night club or rock show already causes permanent hearing damage, it's not that hard to do.

i.e. Every fucking man on this planet. Some are vocal about it, and some are in denial, but the truth is, girls at this age ARE attractive.
Thought about it really hard and...you know what, death penalty. I wouldnt care who it was. If you get turned on by children, you deserve to die.

Remember?
So you buy the expensive Microsoft Approved (tm) mouse that sells twice it's real value, with strange proprietary connectors, that's why.
