Tell Microsoft to stop pushing patches which install Windows 10 without my agreeing upon it, and I'll let Windows update run. No, I suppose Microsoft stopped with the whole Windows 10 thing a few months back, but there's now a trust issue I personally have to get past. The fact of the matter is, I don't trust Microsoft anymore.
could well be used by the criminal organization to torture and/or murder fellow citizens. Therefore I say we should ban the use of all forks and knives until proper surveillance on forks and knives can be obtained. I'm tired of putting forks and knives into the hands of our criminals!
I suspect it's also unconstitutional. Schools have too much power these days. As a parent, I have felt the force of that power. They can very much at times be vindictive.
I'm tired of hearing the opinions of Fox & friends as well as MSNBC. The stations call themselves news stations, but really their nothing but pundits. If either one really wanted to be a REAL new channel, they would report on both sides of the debate and LEAVE IT UP TO THE VIEWERS to form THEIR OWN OPINION!
I was just informed last night by my ISP that the main server on my network here (mentasm.com) had received a DoS attack. My ISP reported that the attack came from hundreds of IPs. Because of that they were unable to block the attacker but instead had to block incoming connections to that particular IP on my network.
Mentasm has seen these types of attacks in the past and I've never been able to track them down due to the fact that I have a full time job 35 minutes away from home. Mentasm lives on a 500k cable modem and only provides a handfull of shell accounts and web hosting accounts, most of which are given out free.
After the IP was switched off, the attacker never bothered choosing another IP on our network which makes me believe this is probably random and not specifically aimed at Mentasm. I can't understand why anyone would want to randonly attack servers for no apparent reason.

It's a damned shame his life has to be ruined for something so stupid. Scare him, maybe. Charge him, definitely not.
