All those tax returns, legal paperwork... Can't they just stay on a box or at the basement? It'll require lots of work, and get few benefits. I would understand for new documents; i.e. introducing to a spreadsheet some taxes/things to pay. But why care about the past? Or, at least, why scan? Just type the figures, it'll be more semantic and wouldn't involve machines (except for you and the computer).
I believe that every single answer to his post had a logical and thoughtful refutation of his opinion. Most of such replies have been up-modded to insightful.
You deserve to be modded down. Every life lost, that could have been avoided, is a disaster (and not great even taking into account superpopulation, I suppose your family wouldn't like you to be dead, the 17 people's neither). And, clearly, the Challanger disaster could have been avoided as this guy proved. By the way, here's a quick link on Wikipedia about him.
Firefox has launched a new version release system, creating an ESR for enterprises, organizations, etc. which is released once in 7 Firefox usual releases (Firefox 10, 17, 24, etc.), so that they don't have so much trouble (it must be horrible to find that two new versions have appeared as you are updating...). See a submission which didn't get to the front page for more details.

Monty Python already knew what it was: look here for some quotes.

Well, there's a thing called proxy... And there are plenty of them.
Poland is definitely another great country. It once blocked software patents in Europe; now ACTA... Great!
Hmm. Let's take down computers, operating systems, browsers... They also use them!
Germany as one of the most sensible states in the world.
That was a Jedi lightsaber. If it were a double Sith lightsaber, nothing would have happened!
Doesn't he have a lightsaber? Galaxy is a dangerous place.

Because it's also stuff that matters, yet what he said didn't matter a lot to [whoever's fault was], apparently.
Wikipedia confirms it.

Let's see what XKCD says about it...
Half of the Fortune 500s use Windows. Joking apart, I doubt anyone uses Linux in the frontends, sadly.
They didn't take into account its terrific privacy? Sending data to Google HQ? Really??
How many Libraries of Congress is that?
m(b)illions
In a regexp, you definitely wouldn't like to match mbillions. Use [mb]illions, or ([mb])illions if you want to get whether it's m or b. FTFY.
Yet, I'm getting tired of 927 (the comic's number). Constantly appearing on Slashdot articles about new technologies.
But Flash must die; if we continue feeding it with updates it will not die. Web developers must realize that the future is HTML5.
[sarcasm]Which has a faaaar slower release schedule. Definitely.[/sarcasm]
Where do you think Firefox got the idea from?
It's a routine.
Firefox has launched a new version release system, creating an ESR for enterprises, organizations, etc. which is released once in 7 Firefox usual releases (Firefox 10, 17, 24, etc.), so that they don't have so much trouble (it must be horrible to find that two new versions have appeared as you are updating...).

When you have, it'll be valued at $224.99, sorry. Anyway, if any profile is worth more than negative infinity, call me!
Didn't it appear in The Big Bang Theory? One of Howard's experiments, I believe.
For a price which would be one millionth of the typical Apple product.
