Ok seriously.....they aren't releasing all the documents because it would be irresponsible? Do those words sounds like the words of a suicide hacker to you? Or the words of a badly trained actor pretending to be a suicide hacker? Only a suicide hacker would go after the US government. I have read the laws pertaining to internet hacking for the US (Or as much as I could since it was written in some strange form of english called legaleeze) And the laws are so extreme that you could go to jail for even pinging a US government server. Does anyone else see the rather large gaps in logic here?
i dont buy for a second anonymous is legit at all, this is a CIA front creating problems to garner a reaction from the public so legislation can be passed to further restrict internet usage. I can smell scams like this @ this point in my life from a mile away. And I know alot of people who share my opinion. You cant fool all the people all the time you fucks. As an american citizen the constitution gives us the right to revolution in the case which the government becomes corrupt. Never forget that, and question everything.
What exactly does this mean for the social networking giants like facebook? Are they going to have to pay royalty fees to amazon now every time someone writes on ur wall? This is a really bizarre patent issuance.
Come on, srsly. You had to know oracle was going to pull something like this. They don't care about people, they care about $$$. That's the bottom line. Period.
The story told by the geek squad supervisor is a sad an unfortunate one. However, (im sure you could see that "but" coming;) what do you expect from a company who holds interviews for potential employees through a human voice translator? I know this because a couple of years ago while i was in college (circa 2003) I needed a job and someone told me best buy was hiring, while apprehensive, I went for it anyway. It turns out the interview was conducted over the phone via a human like operator, and if you pressed a wrong key you would fail the interview. I was told this ahead of time and of course I still did it, and it cost me getting the job. How could of made that mistake even though I was told ahead of time? No idea, maybe it was fate intervening. I'm a nix admin now 4 years out of college, not making bank, but doing ok, and I gotta say I'm happy that i pressed the wrong key that day. I'm glad i never worked for the technology sector's wallmart. It also makes you wonder how many future managers or talented employees they have lost due to someone getting a case of fat fingers during those "phone interviews". My advice to this poor supervisor; absorb the harsh lesson laid upon you. You didn't do anything wrong, but dude, its best buy, just avoid them in any way you can in the future, they don't deserve anyone's business or career.
There were three Geek Squad members fired from my store including myself. The first two were fired for burning a non-copyrighted CD for another employee on a non company issued blank CD-R. I admitted in my interrogation that I was aware of this, and that I stopped these events after that occurrence. I was fired for being aware of this non copyrighted CD being copied. To quote, I did not provide the proper example of leadership. Keep in my mind I removed over 100 illegal tools and pirated discs upon my arrival as supervisor, as well as some remnants of an internal porn scandal
Why won't you little kiddies get it into your thick skulls that distrbuting source code doesn't make a system less secure. What would you rather have 10 M$ employees monitoring source code for vulnerabilites...or hundreds upon thousands monitoring it at all times? Mindless kiddies like yourself aren't just slowing down open source movement, you are slowing down the progress of all man kind, you douche. (southpark)
As boring as it might sound...to me at least...my mom started from the ground up a yellow pages for librarians which was freely distrubuted and stayed afloat by librarian vendors paying to advertise in her free publication. She started it 14 years ago and She is selling it within the next two weeks because the market has run dry. The point of all this? Her buisness did just fine until google came along. Why do you need to go to a library and support them when you have a wealth of information at your fingertips? What is closer your pc which resides in your room, or the closest library? You do the math. This is just a case of someone who is bitter towards the "google" generation because it steals his buisness. Just ask my mom =|
you know they will, that is thier buisness model. Eliminate the comptetion by charging nothing, then turn around and charge you, assuming you will pay because there arent any viable competitors left. They used to give away windows back in the 80s....probally dont have to tell anyone how that ended up working out.
another case of cooperate america protecting what is "thiers" at the consumers cost. No matter what way you look at it the end user always gets f'd in the a. Thats american buisness nowadays.
i think the biggest implication of this is what the poster originally posted. If m$ is going to make messaging a corner stone of thier.NET project the potential for a more advanced virus than this one could really mess sh*t up.:o
whats insteresting to me is that nobody seems to relize that microsoft WANTS piracy to take place,
then windows will become even more propiertary. The only reason for the recent analness on licensing etc...is because it looks good in courts against a case that microsoft is trying to monopolize the industry. Think about it, more casual copying = more boxes running windows....microsoft doesnt care about the piracy they are just watching out for themselves legaly

ha! good riddance is _exactly_ what I said when I read the headline of this story. I guess they ran out of money to pay lawyers. What a shame.

So if im a simulation, you think the permatrails I have are just fps lag?
actually i use linux, and btw what do you call macs early attempt at world domination. I hate ms, but ms got done what mac only attempted to do.
I wonder if opengl games will now run quicker on mac os 10.2 because opengl will be native....300fps in quake3 sounds good to me :D
