The EU says M$ has to inform users they can use other browsers. Why? Does Ford, Mercedes, BMW or any other car maker have to inform their owner they can use a different radio in the dash? or that they can use different tires than what comes on them? And why is this not an issue for Apple and Safari? Or better yet, why not an issue for Ubuntu? Ubuntu does not inform me that i can use something other then Firefox when i log in.
FTA "why not turn to older, more mature ex-hackers to educate younger hackers about the risks", because some one in that mindset is not going to listen to their elders.
I was a proud supporter of FireFox on the desktop, promoted it all the time....untill it got so bloated that pc's hard a hard time running it, so i switched to Chrome. I still had it on android, it ran slow, crashed every once in a while but it was still my favorite browser, then i tried opera on android. Haven't looked back. I'm sorry Mozilla but you dropped the ball a long time ago, and in this market if your not bleeding edge, your shark bait, and you are getting swallowed up by all your competitors.
Uh if hes not "hiding" he fucking should be. Basically he has leaked confidential U.S. documents, that makes him a high priority target, and if he is extradited, 1 of two things will happen, one: he will be executed (not likely) two: he will be prosecuted for some crime and put in a hole for the rest of eternity (most likely).
is this instance hiding is not a cowardly thing, is a survival tactic.
Whats better than having nukes on the ground, then having them in space, easily deploy-able at the push of a button (and a 20 second delay), to wipe out enemies. secret missions could have hundreds of these orbiting the globe with armed warheads for years with none the wiser.
or
the could be part of an missile intercept program to take down ICMB's...
I see this all the time. Just the other day i got had a head hunter contact me about a position that required 5+ years of system center 2012 experience. I about died laughing.
We use all HP iron, its has been great for the most part. However HP as a whole is such a disorganized cluster fuck, it no wonder they are loosing money.
Their documentation is in such a disarray your have to navigate a shit labyrinth of documents on their website to find the one you need, only to realize its just flat out wrong.
God ford bid you actually need to speak to any one, India is the only place you can call, if you try your sales rep, or "regional manager" they give you the same shitty number where the ass clown in India tells you to restart your entire server cluster, in the middle of the day, to fix a failing HD issue.
I welcome this as an opportunity to jump ship on a sinking empire that has lost its way.
That's only if your a short term investor who has the capitol to put up for a large buy, the regular people that don't have access to those types of funds should stay away as FaceBook as a long term investment, is insane. It will slowly die out just as Myspace did after it was bought and pressured to make more money. In the short term the price will continue to go up until something new pops up, users will mass migrate, and the revenues will dry up like grandmas vagina.

We have a winner! no need to read the rest of the comments.
of all the cars i have bought, none of them say this when i first turn on the radio.

maybe for a couple of minutes, an epic hack can last a decade or more.

that sheet has to have some type of backdoor in it, its Sony for crying out loud.

now that its been discovered, all textbooks will have to be re-written and sold to students.

If you have all these great story's to tell, put them in movies, and stop making these half ass'ed shitty games that further destroy the franchise.

they just wanted to get free Pay Per View.
I couldn't resist.
its the only way you can get some one you "trust", if the price is too high, then your security is degraded.
i just spit my coffee out all over the keyboard reading that.
Seriously.
Give me some decent trance and ill code till my brain explodes all over the screen , give me 'POP' and my brain just explodes.

really wasn't that like 10 years ago he was a big deal?
They have a whole army of people trying to do this, and yet some stuff still gets through.
:-P

i chuckled at this, "cyber field" , really?

I would seriously suggest buying Facebook shares

NASA's blue marble photo is what I'm used to seeing http://eoimages.gsfc.nasa.gov/images/imagerecords/57000/57723/globe_east_540.jpg
So why does it look different in Russian photos? What version is more accurate?
