I've on the other hand never lost something on cloud service. And often that's where I turn first to retrieve "long lost files".
I once had my online storage go down for over a week. They didn't lose anything, but if I hadn't had local copies, I would have been dead in the water for over a week!
Until it gets to a point where consumers DEMAND alternatives. Telco's campain money won't means squat if 51% of the public is pissed off enough to vote their pet congresscritters out of office. Even monopolys have limits.
The two aren't mutally exclusive. Government did encourage this crisis. It also failed to reign in the greedsters who screwed everyone else to make their profits.
To me, beta means that you can use the software, but don't expect it to be "stable", either for crashes or changing. If a project is in "beta" for 4 years, something is wrong, either with the project or, in the case of gmail, with their definition of "beta".
In fact I'd put Sears as the only brick and mortar retailer I actually trust today... I'd be perfectly happy buying some no-name appliance from Sears, while I wouldn't even think about touching some no-name appliance in a Wal-Mart.
I like Sears better than Walmart, but Walmart has one big advantage over Sears, at least in my area.
Awhile back, there was a process that only ran "on demand". Since it wasn't part of the usual routine there wasn't any formal documentation. I was the only person who had touched it for years, though the guy I inherited it from could have done it in a pinch. One year, I, and the other guy, had both scheduled our vacations at the same time. The boss, one of the few smart ones, insisted that I document the process in case it had to be run while we were gone. Sure enough it was, and thanks to my instructions, the person who ran it didn't have any trouble.
Well, way back in prehistoric times, when I replaced my olde 8088 with a 286, a couple of my old games ran TOO quickly on the new hardware. So it can be an issue.
He should just shut up and choose to be Democrat or Republican
Why? I assume Barr wants a smaller federal government. Why should he join the "tax us to oblivion" Dems, or the "bloat spending and fund it with pixie dust" Repubs? Neither party represents his views.
I never heard anyone say that Iraq had NUCLEAR weapons. EVER! They claimed that Iraq was working on nuclear weapons and might have them in 5-10 years, and that they already had chemical weapons. The stated threat was NOT that they could blow up our cities NOW, it was that we had to stop them before they could blow our cities.
Would you want to hire someone dumb enough to admit being an idiot on Facebook? For that matter, would you want to hire anyone dumb enough to BE on Facebook in the first place?
I'll be sitting at my work desk reading/. when MS OutHouse pops a message saying that my boss sent an email telling me to get back to work. I hate email.

He really should have stocked up before he left. There is LOTS of red ink here.
How do they compare to the flying penis areas?

My sig answers your question. :)

This time, it wasn't me!

Blasphomy! May you be buried in week-old meatballs for your words against the FSM!

It still exists. :(

Which is why businesses love to hire illegals when they can.

But what if you could prove that that cop really was an f***ing a**hole?
Boring, and with Vista, very overweight indeed.

But its zombie is still a liberal.
I dunno. Personally, I can't think of too many people I know who AREN'T screwed up.
Unless you want to avoid hitting the fool ahead of you who just slammed his brakes. :p
that Sony has written a multi-platform rootkit?
OTOH, after Perot got 20% of the popular vote in 1992, the Republican Congress actually balanced the budget. Too bad it didn't last.
And you trust politicians more than "the crowds"?? Why???
