No, because it's a different search. I'm sure there are plenty of people that search 'MS Antivirus' because they're looking for an AV program or because they're looking for the AV software that Microsoft makes, but they don't know its name.
'MS Antivirus Malware' might not be searched nearly as often, but it is a string that occurs more enough, so its added as a suggestion, the same is likely true for strings like 'MS Antivirus name' or 'MS Antivirus recommendations'
And how much money do you think they're likely to lose if this law does pass? It's a calculated risk that might wind up SAVING them money in the long run.
Yes, exactly! Getting the people involved is NOT the solution! The real solution is that they just have to offer a bigger bribe than the media companies!
Everything I've seen says that he was a contractor. In order to be a contractor, you're basically told a job you have to do and you do it.
The company can't demand much more than that, or you become an employee and that's not something they want. If they wanted that, then they would have hired him as an employee, they didn't, they hired him as a contractor!
They also have their own set of advantages. When you NEED a HDMI cable NOW you'll wind up paying $30 for it rather than the $1-5 you would pay online.
I think if the government is going to take my money, they should do it when I receive it rather than when I'm trying to spend it. We already have the income tax infrastructure fully set up with state and federal taking my money before I even get my check. Modify this a bit and everything is taken care of without any fuss.
If stolen property is found, it is confiscated and eventually given back to the rightful parties. If the dealer is knowingly buying your stolen property, he's an idiot since it can potentially be repossessed without any compensation back to the dealer.
There've been a few times that a book I wanted had a Borders sticker on it that covered up the MSRP. If you peeled the sticker back, you'd see the Borders price was a buck higher. Not always, but even to make me only buy clearance books from them.
They took away a piece of functionality that it was advertised as having. If I had a PS3, I'd want them to take the whole thing back & credit me the full retail price (if I liked it, I'd pick up a used one... at least then Sony wouldn't directly get my money).
I know there are a lot of analogies floating around out there, but to me the fact of the matter is it doesn't matter how big the functionality was, it was an advertised feature. What if it was blueray playing functionality that they decided to yank out? Not a big deal, right? I mean you can pick up a new blueray player for $80 or so, less if you find it on sale, hardly a real reason to be upset.
Anything I've ever seen like this always exists on a virtual lan (or even on a physically seperate lan) so it's generally not causing security risks. Even if it is on the same internal network, those devices don't require an external port being forwarded to them either.
I'm surprised that you'd trust Google apps more than an internal server known to hospital IT.
The data at issue are on-call schedules for staff, not patient data.
It's just a calendar with shift times, as long as everyone involved doesn't mind it being on GCal, it shouldn't be a problem, but a random piece of hardware being connected to a hospital network IS a big deal. No one who's said anything is concerned about the safety of the shift times data, they ARE concerned about the HOSPITAL data that is on the same network & can be compromised by one security oversight on that server.
My gf just picked up a MBP... you can set the part of the trackpad where the normal right click button would be to react like a right click.
If that is the main thing keeping you from buying a macbook, I'd say buy it.
I prefer to just use linux, but I have to admit, the hardware and build quality is definitely nice. Neither the gf or I would touch an iPhone or iPad with a 10 foot pole though.
No, because most people would torrent these movies & if you upload anything, then you are violating copyright. So, he's still a criminal no matter what.
Also, unless he's downloading the full 25-50GB rip, he's not getting all the stuff that's on the BR anyways, so why should he pay for it but not get to utilize it on his linux box?
I just dual boot personally, makes it all a bit easier, but I can understand his frustration.
But, Google doesn't actually sell YOU to the companies. The companies give them a target demographic & Google gets ads to them.
Your information isn't going directly to the companies, unlike when you use Facebook & click 'Like' buttons all over the place. I use Facebook because it's useful, but I check my privacy settings on a weekly basis (they seem to have a way of magically changing) & generally accept the fact that nothing said on FB is secure or private in the least.
That's pretty much how the Android market works too... Apps aren't allowed to link to their own web page to force an order (the same as they aren't on iOS). You have to confirm the order with your password & the order goes through Google Checkout without you having to enter any other information.
Google also asks for a 30% cut, but the difference is that they don't FORCE you to use the Market.
So, your point is pretty much complete FUD.
His point was that for 3/4 main carriers in the US, you do NOT get a discount for bringing your own phone or being off contract (and some won't even ALLOW you to sign up as an off contract user), so you might as well just take the phone since you'll be paying the some fee monthly anyways.
A religious person might be able to compartmentalize because what they are teaching doesn't effect their beliefs. They might be able to rationalize that god is mysterious and can allow certain things to happen (big bang, evolution, etc...) and all that is according to his design, but a creationist cannot rationalize evolution because the two are mutually exclusive.
A believer in flat earth cannot rationalize certain things either and we don't take them seriously.

Yup, all doctors suck at their job because they don't diagnose themselves.

Well, the stocking stuffer would be the USB keys and teh stuff on them is just a bonus (or something to be deleted).
There is also a reason the sky is blue, what the fuck does that have to do with this discussion?

He can't use that! It's hosted on Google Code!

Sorry, meant to say full refund with receipt or full retail price without.

So, because the hospital doesn't share a calendar in iPhone compatible format they don't have a "good IT manager?"
Isn't Nokia at least suing over hardware patents, mostly? I think that theres a bit of a difference between a software patent and a hardware patent.

I notice it everytime the girlfriend wants to play Plants vs Zombies and I want to play Fallout 3.
They're two completely different fucking games Steam should NOT be preventing me from playing them on two different computers.
Some (all?) games also won't work if we lose internet connect and what can I say, AT&T sucks, so it happens often.
I'm sure if you offered to give them collateral for the full value of the car they might change their minds.
