Not all of us of are ignorant as the GP is (see my post) but I do empathize for what women in IT have to go through. For what it's worth I apologize for the part of my gender that thinks the way the GP does.
Don't try to 'feminise' the work place - realize that its Rome, and its up to you 'to do as the romans do'
Of course some people will never get it... Just because your getting rid of the male locker room humor doesn't mean your 'feminise' the workplace. You can find a happy medium between the two or at least try.
You see, Killbots have a preset kill limit. Knowing their weakness, I sent wave after wave of my own men at them, until they reached their limit and shut down. --Zapp Brannigan
Beavis: Hey Butthead what do you think things were like before cable? Butthead: Beavis you dumb a$$, they always had cable just not as many channels. Beavis: Oh yeah.... Progress is cool.
I think you are wrong on two counts. One if everyone did it then everyone would have to find someone to buy it every month. Something is only worth as much as someone else is willing to pay for it. Two just because someone can do a thing doesn't mean he or she will. Just as some people feel that software piracy is not a crime some people feel that it is and will not do it just because it goes against their morals.
And I would visit your review site provided you don't use those god awful double underlined adds..... Sorry for the rant but those things drive me crazy, they hardly ever are relevant to the context to the way the word is used and they come up just by moving the mouse over them....
Well that not entirely fair. for the simulation how would the simulate time on mars? You mention the promise of freedom, but what freedom would you have in a simulation like this. Even when you on the planet (simulated) your still going to be trapped because it will still be the simulation? This makes more sense in my head than it does on screen but do you see what I'm trying to get at?
It's no different than Safes or doors or computers. Once you have physical access it's just a matter of time. The goal is to make it not worth the effort or to make the car next to you the easier target.
I completely agree that inside jobs are more common than and outside job but that's not to say you shouldn't fight theft where you can. You not going to be able to eliminate all theft but you can work on certain types.
Some things don't change on a day to day basis. Say for example the location and the history of a mountain. Gratned is someone dies climbing it well you wont know the latest and greatest but at least know something. Would wikipedia be that much less valuable if updates were performed monthly instead of daily?
I'm willing to bet that most pictures were of adults and there were a few questionable pictures mixed in. Nice conjecture I have an "I'm willing to bet" for you: I bet you have no way to back that up that assertion.
So what about him sending an instant message to a New York woman. Sent over Yahoo's network, the IM contained a sexually explicit picture of a minor Your saying he just happened to have a lot of porn CD's that had a few pictured of Child porn and some one else used his open WAP to send the IM?
Well guess what It doesn't matter if it was one picture or 100 pictures. He had at least one on the CD's and having one is enough to convict.
I never said the money doesn't come from you and me. Who else would it come from. I was agreeing with parent. The part that is bs is the dollar figure they give. You have to spread that out on all MS goods and services for those years. Not just one product.
Gee who would have thought huh? Secondly, this is BS. It ignores the fact that MS sold more products in that period that just WinXP than just an OS, things like Office.
Why would you ever open anything not from a source you know if you where in the State Department?... FTA (which isn't entirely clear. The mysterious State Department e-mail appeared to be legitimate and included a Microsoft Word document with material from a congressional speech related to Asian diplomacy, Reid said. By opening the document, the employee activated hidden software commands establishing what Reid described as back door communications with the hackers. It's not clear but I wouldn't be so quick to say the employee was stupid for opening an email with out knowing the source. If it appeared legit and it was just a plain word doc with not VB scripts then it's not all his/her fault.
And why are you taking aim at governments in particular, any government corporation or single home user could have been fooled by this.
Not everything needs to be turned in to a conspiracy. Yes I know this is/tinfoilhat. but really does someone need to do this every time? Thank you FCC.
I was late to work that day because no alarm clock whether it be cell phone or manual alarm could cope with the automatic change.
What do you mean no manual alarm could cope? How did manual alarms cope before the change? Thats right you set it before you went to bed, This isn't rocket science. One more point. The Time change occurred on Sunday morning at or about 2am. You had a whole day to look at your clock and figure out it was a hour off before you went to be Sunday night. It's not DST fault you were late to work it was your fault. Nice try though
Oh and for the record my cell phone did change on it's own on time.
I couldn't find out what these people were, were they programmers? If they were devs, no one says they can't code programs in general, just programs of a pretty specific type. I don't think this all that unusual.

maybe it's part of their defense. If some on gets hacked because of that banner ad, Adobe could say "Hey we warned you"

it seems to me that "justice" would have been much better served by just *informing* everybody about the law, so that it wouldn't happen again.
I don't know maybe justice was served. I bet the people in that area are informed now.

Their is plenty of piracy online but a lot people still shoplift.

Is it just me or is the math It's $6.25 for a pack of 3 songs, so 18 songs = $18.75 wrong?
a pack of 3 songs for 6.25 means one song costs $2.13 (apx) so 18 songs should cost $38.34 (apx)
With our company using Zimbra I no longer use a client side mail app for either personal or business email.
