and if Microsoft didn't warn you people would complaine about that.
"Microsoft didn't tell me my Antivirus protection had expired, just because I had a power point slide open!"
There is no way to make everyone happy, so you provide the best protection you can and try to make the least number of people pissed. To me, a better question would be "why did you let your antivirus expire?".
The Core series chips has the same problem I have with just about every CPU from AMD or Intel. No good motherboards. It seems you cant get a motherboard with basic features such as 133mhz PCI-X and without such crap as onboard audio and RAID without going to the Xeon or Opteron lines.
So we're spending money to tell people how much more money we're spending then what we're making? Reminds me of the cost (cant recall the figure, but it was a large dollar amount) of sending the letter telling people their 300% tax rebate was on its way.
Broderbund software used to have a support BBS that a bunch of us in the San Francisco Bay Area took over for our personal chat room. Used to spend hours there, we even used to get together in real life.
It got to the point where Broderbund came to us to find beta testers for their software products. I dont think I ever once saw anyone use that system for its intended purpose.
This is why I keep all my money in gold bullion strapped into my underwear. Of course that makes my pants weigh too much to move around in, but I wasn't realy going anyplace any how.
Hate to break it to ya, but Linksys is owned by Cisco.
Um.... why?

USB Batteries

· Score: 5, Interesting
In most cases, if you have USB power you have an outlet. In rare cases where your out in the middle of no where with nothing but a notebook and a GPS unit running on AA batteries, and you need to keep the GPS charged so you can make it out there before dark, I guess these would be of use. Cant realy think of any other time.
I'm reminded of what one of the writers on Futurama said about Zap Branigan, just think of what it would be like if Shatner rather then Kirk was the captain of the Enterprise.
Give a man a fish and he can eat for one day, teach a man to phish and he can anoy millions of people for the rest of his (hopfully short) life.
(Sigh) Its all rather depressing realy. After having the same domain and email address for ten years my spam to real mail ratio is about 500:1 and I can find my email address on decade old usenet posts via Google.
"Oh the vanity! People really do that??? If I want you to see my video I'll put it on my own site and mention it somewhere, maybe even slashdot and it it's interesting word will get around, if it's not, my ego won't be crushed. I will be pissed if those weasels at thinkgeek steal it for another merchandising product."
Um, sure they do. You see, unlike yourself some people have somthing to sell. Bands such as "ok GO" (just to name one) will pay to place their video on the front page because it sells CDs and tickets. Same with video game makers, etc.
MS: I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.
EU: Thats the Display Department.
MS: With a torch.
EU: The lights had probably gone.
MS: So had the stairs.
EU: But you found the plans, didnt you?
MS: Oh yes, they were on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying Beware of the leopard.
paper is much harder. With a paper ballot you need to alter every bit of paper for each vote you want to skew. With an digital system, you just make up the numbers at a ceneteral location.
Slashdot Mirror
I guess I just dont see how Microsoft would know that your in a meeting. Sorry.
Well yea, if you use Symantic your asking for it. But why is that Microsofts fault?

If the music sucks. Why do you feel the need to download it without its creators permission?

A Linksys router being as good as a Cisco router is like saying a Cadillac is as good as a GM car.
My Linksys is a router with a Cisco logo on the front, is that not a Cisco router?

They have computers now? That means its just a matter of time before they download all our secerets!
Warez sites dont charge for the product. These are black market items, sold for profit.

And to improve the acting, Kirk will now be played by Jar Jar Binks. Thanks to the wonders of digital compositing.
"Mesa shout, Kahn?"
"And you find that the google www.google.com/u/gplus doesnt work now."
Wonder if Google has a cache of the page for us to look at.

Yes, lets hope they never limit the internet broadcasts of swedish wives.
I could have sworn that child pron' videos where allready illegal, regardless of medium.
Dang kids today, with their sprialgraph and rock em sockem robots.
In my day all we had was a hoop and a stick! And sometimes we didn't even have the hoop!
Sure, your access point only works with one brand of hardware, that just makes it harder for people to steal your precious bandwidth!

This just in. Electricity can cause heat and electronic circuits can short out. Details at eleven.
This is nothing. Now the power supply I once had belch fire half way across the room, that was somthing.
