We can't seriously believe either side, but must stick to logic and examine all the facts. Both sides have their hysterical evangelists and paid shills.
I'd just like to "Amen" this one. I tried for days to get a live human on the oh the phone, but never did. When they'd call me, wanting their money I'd cancelled payment on (my bank is nice...), I told them I wanted to return their router, but they wouldn't let me do that, either.
From the amount of security breaches at Los Alamos I've read about, I figure anyone's pricipal reason for working there is to take secrets back to their Masters in China, France, Isreal, Russia....
Just checked. I've got eight in that search box, with the promise to manage them. Haven't tried that yet, but it doesn't look like I've been Microsofted yet.
So the educated Pyro can wait until everyone is else where, hop on the motorbike, and start five, ten fires and really tie up the fire department. Great.
You could do that to begin with, but now you can plot your course to string everyone out better and more efficently.
I've got the opposite problem. Yahoo I get so much spam I pretty much don't bother with it. Gmail sticks it all (and I mean ALL) of it in the spam folder. I clear that out when it hits three digits. Yahoo I've got my blocklists, filters, and everything on, and I still get 50-60 pieces of spam a day in the main folder. Gmail is actually useable.:)
I mean honestly, what would you prefer: a world where people are frightened to report problems, or a world where people can freely report problems.
I think he goofed up when he tried charging for his services, which he hadn't been contracted for. That is very presumptious, and more than a little irritating. I don't believe he'd been asked to look for holes, which amounts to B&E.
[i]If you don't steal anything, you can't be arrested for robbery. If you left your door unlocked and open, you can't charge them for breaking and entering. You could probably get them on trespassing, but your analogy fails here because your house is not a public area, whereas a company phone system is used both by staff and public. You really haven't chosen an applicable analogy here.[/i]
To be picky, I should have called it "Breaking and Entry" rather than robbery. B&E doesn't have the force requirement that Robbery does. B&E also doesn't have to have an actual theft happen to occur before being called into play. If you'd like to refine the argument, My hypothetical Burglar would be better charged under B&E, the attempt at billing non-withstanding.
In other words, I can break into your house and wander around, take notes then leave. When I come to the door later, I can bill you for the "Security Consultation" and not be charged for robbery.
Great!...and they call Americans silly? This one's off the chart.
That made less sense than most teaser trailers I've seen. I saw nothing to support Rockstars claims of "Wait! This isn't the game they say it is!" mantra.
We're talking microwaves. The VERY SAME energy that's used to cook your food in a microwave oven! All we're doing is turning the planet into one big Amana Radar Range and global temps will skyrocket to new extremes of both hi and lo temps
Mein Gott... you do realize they've been using Microwaves for years now without fried Bird falling from the sky, right?
But they've already dealt with Morons who can't agree on the facts before. He deserves it....and practial jokers? Draw and Quarter, it's the only solution.

I still have it.
I'll assume the extra cost vs regular bulbs is just a happy side effect? That said, I buy 'em because they last longer.

You think because _you_ know how to find and change the search boxes, it makes it easy for most people to do so?
Sure. I hardly think Firefox is the devil.

Next they'll be finding a use for lawyers!
:D)
(Oh yeah, I'm burning for that one!
No offense, but the first blew chunks. I don't see how this can be improved.
People gots ta have that flip shorty!
Dear Moron;
I didn't buy a flip phone. I have a good, old brick. Why? Because it has the features I need, and none of the crap I don't use.
Nice Try.
'Cause if they all say it's true, it has to be.
*snerk*
Luxeon K2 looks like it would be even better.

Say, has Vonage reopened their Customer Service department yet? Last I checked, they didn't understand the concept.

Wow... some amazing work.
Geez.... their spam filters are non-existant.

I'm sure the billions they rake in will more than soothe whatever conscience they have left.

Troll.
Should we be spreading a philosophy, or just trying to get as many people using our favorite software as possible?
Spread software. People are resistant to others telling them how to believe.

Yeah, but an "understated" doomsday won't make for a good hollywood blockbuster.
Not that they pay attention to science, anyway.
