Ahh see, now looking in on an open webcam is one thing - with a good lawyer you probably wouldn't make it to court. Trying to break into one that is secured by a password (even a shitty password) is criminal pretty much everywhere.
Where did you say you worked again? Failing that, who was the "competition"? I know that you know these are rhetorical questions, but if you DID get caught one day I'm sure you wouldn't be able to hide behind the "security researcher" excuse for long.
We don't need to resolve science with religion... we need to reconcile religion with science.
Er personally I don't see the need for reconciliation, either. We need to accept that a certain not insignificant percentage of the population will always be prone to manipulation and belief in the incredible. So either you replace it with another lie that keeps them away from explosives and weapons and important decisions, or you shoot them. They refuse to be educated, so there's not really much choice.
Unfortunately because there are so many of them, they would end up crushing us. My only consolation is that their deaf and blind gods would again fail to provide, plunging the world into yet another "dark age". And so the circle goes on again.
and the possibility arises that maybe it'd be possible to find a 'better' place.
Yet another person fails to comprehend exactly what kind of distances exist between the stars. The answer is no. Unless of course you can find a way to travel significantly FASTER than the speed of light, because even AT the speed it light it would take you hundreds of years to reach stars currently known to have planets orbiting them.
A new hypothesis that reinforces previous research is not invalid. In fact quite the opposite. It both reinforces the old, and is more accepted because it "fits" current knowledge.
Your argument would be like saying that subtraction is invalid because you can subtract two numbers and get the same result as you can obtain by adding two different numbers.
That depends. You also have to include all of the Star Wars fans who sympathize with the Empire when you count the pope's supporters, since everyone knows he's the preincarnation of Emperor Palpatine.
LOL. I'd like to see the faces of people who bought Apple stock recently "because it's bigger than Microsoft and has the second biggest market cap!". In the pre-market it's already down almost 5%.
Where is your God now, Apple fans? Oh yeah right, in the hospital...
The collapse of Iceland and the PIIGS has been enough to push the Eurozone to the breaking point.
Read a little more. Iceland did not bail out its banks, they let them fail (and were branded as terrorists by the UK for doing so). Iceland is NOT part of the PIIGS (the two "I"'s are Ireland and Italy). And curiously the countries that are struggling are the ones that DID bail out their banks. The economy of Iceland is actually growing again, which is more than can be said for "The Eurozone".
Depressions aren't the end of the world. Look at what happened in Iceland. Have fun dealing with your "too big to fail" zombie banks. I mean, why should they even try anymore? Uncle Sam is right there with the safety net, there's no downside.
Oh good... Julius Baer are so stuck up it's unbelievable. They won't even look at you unless you have $10m and they certainly give the impression they are doing you a HUGE favor by letting you bank with them. Heh this is almost poetic. I hope it costs them all their business.
And I'm sick and tired of hearing about poor people bitching about taxes, since they don't pay any.
Why are you hiding it, and who are you hiding it from?
Because it's none of your damned business. I don't give a shit how much money you have, why should you give a shit about me?
If you dangle large amounts of money in front of people eventually someone somewhere will figure out a way to take it. Even if it means changing, or sometimes breaking, the law to do it. "Hiding" your money when you haven't done anything wrong makes as much sense as not walking down the street downtown with a roll of 100 dollar bills in your hand. No one needs to know how much I have, and that includes governments.
The next iPhone will only be $999. Suck it, applefags, Steve needs more cash because the rest of the board have been partying hard and want new livers too.
Yeah, whoever tagged this as piracy is a dumbass, since this particular case really *IS* theft but it's NOT piracy. Unless of course boats, parrots and wooden legs were involved.
Unless of course you have banks accounts in Switzerland and are waiting to find out WHICH bank has had its database compromised... especially when you've done nothing illegal:(
There's a big difference between tax evasion and tax avoidance. Tax evasion is "I am not going to pay the taxes I owe". Tax avoidance is "I'm not going to pay a penny more than I have to".
If a government, which has its fingers in every single revenue stream from sales and value added taxes, to income, to taxes for the business that make the products we buy, to death taxes, to estate taxes, to poperty taxes - is BANKRUPT, well fuck em. Put your own house in order before you come writing laws trying to steal my money.
But as it is, it doesn't have to make new laws. All it has to do is keep printing money. Inflation will 1) destroy everyone's savings and 2) force everyone into higher tax brackets. It's magic. But we'll call it "quantitative easing".
Have you stopped to think that perhaps the problem is your video card and not your OS?
I am amazed at how smooth the graphics are in my games with Win 7 ultimate 64 bit, but then again I have 2 Nvidia Geforce 470 graphics cards in SLI mode... you get what you pay for you know. Win 7 gave me a pretty crappy FPS when I just had my GeForce 9400 GT running. But then again so did linux, when I actually managed to run something under wine.
1. Get customer to look at shiny lights 2. Pretend to be deciding based on looks 3. Randomly select products from inventory based on expiration date and profit margin, but throw in a few less frequent items so that it's not so obvious.

The spiders would beat them both.
For want of a nail...

We found one on a passenger jet over NYC but that didn't turn out so well.

I see that you prefer your time as a linear continuum. Well that's ok I guess. Whatever works for your particular set of dimensions.
PS: You're right - my bad.
That depends. You also have to include all of the Star Wars fans who sympathize with the Empire when you count the pope's supporters, since everyone knows he's the preincarnation of Emperor Palpatine.
Apple needs to boost its shares value somehow.
LOL. I'd like to see the faces of people who bought Apple stock recently "because it's bigger than Microsoft and has the second biggest market cap!". In the pre-market it's already down almost 5%.
Where is your God now, Apple fans? Oh yeah right, in the hospital...

The SEC couldn't even deal with Madoff, you think they can crack Goldman?
Letting them die would have started a depression.
Depressions aren't the end of the world. Look at what happened in Iceland. Have fun dealing with your "too big to fail" zombie banks. I mean, why should they even try anymore? Uncle Sam is right there with the safety net, there's no downside.
A banker with a conscience? Hahaha that's the best joke I've heard all night.
Oh good... Julius Baer are so stuck up it's unbelievable. They won't even look at you unless you have $10m and they certainly give the impression they are doing you a HUGE favor by letting you bank with them. Heh this is almost poetic. I hope it costs them all their business.
High costs in no way should discourage Apple customers by now.

Nah, governments being what they are, they would just hire more staff to answer the phone.
It sees two guys and gives them a horse.
Or probably like:
1. Get customer to look at shiny lights
2. Pretend to be deciding based on looks
3. Randomly select products from inventory based on expiration date and profit margin, but throw in a few less frequent items so that it's not so obvious.
