Microsoft Security in its software has never been funny to its victims. From my perspective; Scott Charney's observations are like observing a battered wife rationalize the need to live using wires, and tubes.
In the growing pains of Linux Distro's, one sees a steady advancement; That not even Microsoft can block. A major advancement would be Wizard's for the various Open Source programs out there. What Walt maybe forgets; Because, he IS old. Is that Microsoft went through this in the early 1990's. Back then, it was Windows vs. IBM Selectric, and the grand mother who has been working there, with the typewriter, since Cuneiform was invented.
I realize that preception is often just as good as actual facts in the golbal arena. Is there any way the Soviets, errrrrrrrr Russians, could build a bigger better Electrical Solar Pannel for Gulogs, Check Points, or Homes? Now that would be something I could "buy" into.
Many years ago, my parents were entertained by a TV character called Archie Bunker. One of the more comical traits of this TV character was that of being Proudly Ignorant. Richard Stallman's comments from the TFA are either satire, or one who is tragically uninformed. A simple news paper reading of activities of the past year from such companies like Sony, and Microsoft painfully show that for all the pious reasons, the solution can go horribly wrong. It has been my personal experience that by having a solution of Open Source, that one can easily answer the question, "But what else is happening inside the program?" Conservative users would find this question chilling, when comparing it to their current software solutions.

Who pays to use the Web? I pay to use the Web, not the other way around. When I come upon a Web page that has some distracting content, I will stay at that page longer if I can effectively ignore those distractions. I do not actively enter a web page to seek advertising of non related content. If I am interested in a product, then I will go to that products web page. If I am interested in products in general, I will go to a web page that contains information on those products in general; Both new and old. Content Blocking as a Morality Issue? Maybe the Web Master should ask the question, "Can I have repeat visitors if I piss them off?" There is a softer question I can ask, "What brought me to your web site? Your content, or those who advertised on your web pages?"

In order to be a participant of this nonsense, you quite literally have to buy into it. When I view my stack, it is completely devoid of Microsoft. Kubuntu(Gutsy), and all those solutions found in Adept, along with Design Patterns. Move over Dr.DOS, QEMM, and STACK; Kindly make some room for Microsoft.
Bribery, in any form, is counter to a constructive global economy. Allow no closed ISO Standards. That way, if some FUBAR'red ISO standard is allowed to exist; It can be ignored by the rest of us. As a side benefit, it would allow Darwinian Socialism to occur to rich fools.
I believe that we are seeing more than some campaign of "Ass Covering" from Microsoft. With the ever increasing capabilities of Open Source solutions taking on what Microsoft sells; Microsoft is facing a time when its products will be submitted to the Smithsonian. I can not help but think that there is a time coming, when the same concept will be introduced to the manufacturing process.
I can not help but think that the Web Site is a true relection of Wal-Mart's own business model. Basically, quality is not the, "Cheapest Bid." Maybe this time Wal-Mart will spend a little more of their hard earned money for a more qualified computer person.
Off Topic? I believe the parent thread was "SUCK", and "BLOW" for the OS that should not be named. If not, then I need to put my comment with the proper thread.
Every interface has been done, and re-done; Over, and over again. All but one. "Voice Input, and Output". The stuff of science fiction has never been fully realized. I plead my case before the Gods of Linux, "Make My Keyboard, and Mouse Obsolete!"
For me, Microsoft's abreviation name could be, "Broken wt", and its ticker symbol could be, "MS_WTF"?
I just upgraded my working system with Ubuntu Gusty Alpha 3. My configuration is a 500G SATA HD, twin DVD/CD writes, ATI card, and 2 NV cards. $600 in 19" LCD's, and $100 in monitar cards. Try that on Vista, at that price.
I guess the city is going to have to change the signs that state, "No Dumping, Sewage Goes Out to Sea", to, "No Dumping, Sewage Goes to Homeland Security, THEN Out to Sea"
It is one thing to ask for a list of voters, but why is it important to know which voter voted in which sequence? Why is such a record even being kept? The paper trail does not need to keep on it the voters ID, that totally undermines the concept of a "SECRET" ballet. As for time stamping when a voter votes; Why? It is enough that we know that the voter, voted.
I can not help but think about the what applications could be created, and tested; If the Pron industry started to get D.O.D. funding on certain projects. But considering the money to be made in the Porn industry, what if the rolls were reversed?

Good One! Now how we work the angle about the Wires?
I could be wrong, but what functionality does Flash have that is not a subset of SVG?
Microsoft Security in its software has never been funny to its victims. From my perspective; Scott Charney's observations are like observing a battered wife rationalize the need to live using wires, and tubes.
I believe that it would have shown a level of greater software based intelligence, and licensing costs if Google have walked the path using SVG.
Please name in the order of more dangerous; A RPG? a Pain-Transmitter?, or a Diplomat?
Does the Taser use Embedded Linux?
It seems that this problem only happens in China, maybe the Chinese should stop playing games?

Is Amok like Wal-Mart?
What would the math be if that same 100 Watt panel was placed on some type of device so that the panel faced the sun from Sun-Up to Sun-Down?

Given that "mixing" of particles can occur, could a Monopole be extracted from a Dipole?
