No no no. If it was a service pack, it'd be supported for more than...what was that, a week? Whatever this is gives it predecessor the boot after a much shorter period of time. I think Vista SP1 lasted a year or so.

So the standard US policy of making a 1 mile test strip didn't quote make it over to the Netherlands? They just threw it on 500 miles and said let's see if it works? Genius.
When I was about 2, I got a vaccine and had a horrible reaction to it. I'm not allergic to eggs or anything normal, I just plan had a horrible reaction to it. I had a fever that almost killed me. I also have an autism spectrum disorder but it's mild and barely affects my social skills and made me exceptional at IT.
AND YET
I'm 100% for vaccinations. If it's down to dying from a fever or measles, I'd take my change with the fever. But, it was obviously a dangerous vaccine that obviously should be monitored a little closely or followed up on and generally "fixed" so it doesn't give people fevers. So she does sort of have a point but she's also sort of a classless psycho-bitch lunatic.
Maybe I'm just old (26, lol) but I remember when games that were designed for static resources on a console worked just fine. You had an N64 and your game ran on an N64 and all N64s were similar. Now they're building Xbox One games like it's a computer except there's nothing you can do to raise the performance. So the console and things like DX11 and 12 are complicated...so what? Make your game run on the damn hardware before releasing it. On my own gaming PC I ALWAYS put gameplay, speed, and high frame rates above prettiness. On the console side, it's one big beauty pageant that results in games that run like crap.
They got in (the recent) deep shit by making their PCs just like their tablets. Now they're literally the same OS. Great. Now I have to start selling Linux at my shop on 3 years and my 2 degrees are worthless. Fan-fucking-tastic.
20 years out?! They company doesn't state that. The government doesn't state that. The investors don't say that. Not even the critics say that. Every number I've ever heard says it's a lot closer.
So they went from actively looking for bugs from users and paying for them to the traditional lying about them, downplaying them, and never patching them until someone blows the whistle on it.
I really, really, really hope this somehow kills The Daily Show. Jon Stewart went from comedian to ultra-liberal political activist. When he replaced his entire show with a serious segment about 9/11 Fire Fighters just to make a political action, it was clear he belongs more on some 24 hour news channel than Comedy Central and I think he knows that. He's basically Bill Murray at this point. They should replace him with an hour long show that's ACTUALLY comedy.
It's absolutely stunning that 7.1 million people "signed up for Obamacare" since that isn't actually a thing that exists. They're signing up for an ACA-compliant plan through a private, third party insurance agency.
Anyone remember the Race Draft skit on The Chappelle Show? The whites wanted to draft Colon Powell as 100% white but the blacks would only allow it if they also agreed to take Condaleeza Rice. She wasn't real popular back then either apparently.
It's amazing what technical accomplishments people can achieve when they get together, concentrate, and fire crooked ass contractors who don't know what the fuck they're doing.
Basically no 3rd party special corporate software runs on Linux so the answer is almost always no. It doesn't even work well with Exchange. But if the system is for web browsing, Google Docs or an ODF office suite, and file storage, go for it. Otherwise, the lack of any domain controls or ability to join a Windows domain kills it in most cases. Out of the 42 systems here at my company, none of them could run Linux or Apple. Every single one needs access to our shared drive that's domain-permissions controlled and they all most need to run Photoshop, Oasis (IE-only), Quickbooks, Office 2003, AutoCAD or something else Windows-only.
I seriously doubt that. The two largest companies in the world are valued at 80 and 81 billion approximately. Even after expenses, HP would be worth a hell of a lot of money after a few years if that 100 billion figure was correct.
You try and do business in crappy countries run by crooked assholes, this is what you have to do. Why do corporations not simply decide a country it too fucked up to do business in. If I was head of HP, first of all I'd fire everyone and shut down the company because they're basically a disease on the tech world. But besides that, I'd simply pull out of every messed up country until they get their shit together. It'd work like a non-UN trade embargo or sanctions that just occurs naturally. If Apple, Pepsi, HP, Microsoft, etc all started not selling their products in places until they cleaned up their acts, that's an awful lot of pressure on those countries!
Oh, so you didn't know that it's a felony to carry those items when you were? Or are you just like every other drug user where you think the laws are unfair and you're too special for them to apply to you and now you blame everyone else now that you got caught? I'm betting on the 2nd statement there.
The US military should just drop bombs on their headquarters. That would get rid of HP's perpetually unfair bullshit forever and single handedly double the quality of laptops and printers as a whole worldwide. And secondary targets should be Open Candy and Conduit's headquarters.

Back in a world with logic, just tell people not to check their e-mail after hours. It's actually a lot simpler to not do something than it is to do something.
If it's not made up of quarks, what evidence so they have that it actually is a Hadron at all? They just stated that the definition of a Hadron is a particle made up of quarks.
That's what we need; a Land Rover where the driver can't tell where the front end actually is. I'm sure they won't hit any hydrants/curbs/garage walls.

I full time work as a professional...who cares, I'm a good shot with a gun.
One's ARM, one's x86 so no. It's just marketing fluff.

I believe the US sends about 4% of the world's volume of spam, depending on how you measure it. So um...no.
And don't forget the CAN-SPAM violator that got like a 15 trillion dollar fine or whatever. $1000 per offense is $1000 per offense, lol.
