I asked around, and gradually discovered that most of the people I worked with had ended up (after months of dilligently trying to adhere to this policy properly) had begun writing their passwords down at their desks.
Writing. Their. Passwords. Down.
It's like this well intentioned security policy had short-circuited itself and put the company in a position far worse than it had been before the reforms.
If the people able to see your password are trustworthy, this is not necessarily only a bad thing. Firstly, you can write your password down without posting it to the monitor, and even so, a remote attacker still can't see your post-it notes on the screen.
In my lab, I don't worry about co-workers knowing passwords of their colleagues. I rather have them write it down if it withstands a brute force attack on the SSH/webmail interface.

after years of waiting, couldn't the developers have spent a couple more months to make it a bit more stable?
from article: "if the dog doesn't respond to the call."
That's not from the article, but rather from the (incorrect) summary of the submitter. The article says: It[The phone] automatically answers when the owner punches in a code on their telephone keypad that means, "Lassie, come home!"
Ultimately the case was thrown out because they brought the radar gun into the court room and clocked a wall travelling at 4mph.
That's why the police always uses the formula 'speed = measured speed - 5mph'. Exactly *because* the radar gun has an accuracy +/-5 mph. I wonder what would have happened if the wall would have been measured to go at -4mph?
Dude, have you ever seen a Korean keyboard? Probably not. It looks exactly as an English one, except that the Korean keys are printed in the lower right corner of the keys and it features an additional 'Korean/English' input mode key between Space and Alt Gr.
The author admits "In fact, I felt so comfortable using it [the Lotus suite] that it quickly became my first choice of office applications. I never bought MS Office after Office XP,and I rarely ever used that."
and goes on to write a comparison between OO and MS Office...
Kinda makes you even angrier about the countless, 600 million dollar "We're growing some more fucking crystals, dammit" missions we've had for the past 20 years.
To put that number in perspective: the US military budget for the last 5 years is 1869.1 billion US$ (2001: 310, 2002: 342.2, 2003: 396.1, 2004: 399.1, 2005: 420.7 billion US$) For the same amount of money you could have had approximately 3100 600 million dollar missions during the same amount of time, or about 1.7 launches per day.
Why are the animals silent? Such is the nature of Chinese people. The problem is not merely Beijing. The problem is Chinese society.
Oh, Ubermensch from the 'Oh Great United States of America!', land of the brave and the free!
You surely got the right to call the Chinese people 'animals'. Coz they are animals, right? These things, we can barely call them living creatures, should be happy you call them animals.
But why would you post anonymously? You got it right. Why hide? You know, there are two parts in posting anonymousy. One is the anonymous part. The other one is 'coward'.
wrong. Those are the names of two of the most famous mountains in Switzerland. They are located near Interlaken, and the third one next to Eiger and Mönch is the most famous one, Jungfrau. Eiger apparently means ogre, Mönch means monk, and a Jungfrau is a virgin. Here's an image: Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau Eiger has a famous north wall, if you wanna climb it, here's where to go: climbing route
Starter Edition also prevents users from launching more than three applications simultaneously.
So, after surfing the net for 5 minutes with Internet Explorer, the poor user can't start any application anymore since all available process slots are occupied by worms and spyware...
According to ETS, the e-rater agrees with the human grader 98% of the time.
Wow, and I tought the human grader had to agree with the e-rater. What happens if the e-rater thinks the humen grader's score is not appropriate? Get fired...?
>Why not install updated drivers for your 802.11 device instead, so that it will work with SP2? Easy for you to say. Slightly harder to actually do when the computer no longer talks to the fucking network!
Duh, how about downloading the driver before installing SP2?
In conclusion, be sure to research "the Mormons" using legitimate sources. That means: if you want to know what we "Mormons" believe in, ask a good, practicing Mormon.
If you really want to research about Mormons, you should not only include the official websites, but also consider other, possibly critical sources

And why does this link "copyright an idea" point to an article "IAEA head criticises Iran cooperation"?

Unfortunately, that algorithm is still not available.
And will not be, unless P=NP, or we use some form of new computers.

if you really start with

I suggest not to use the whole harddisk for your Windows installation. Then you'd end up with:
1. Install Windows XP
6. Install Linux using whatever version you want
7. Reboot PC
