    Yeah continue giving access to your select few then when the government says they aren't going to pick winners anymore, decry the horrible state science will fall to now that everyone is on a less inequal footing.

    So you actually do have other people track your purchases for you before you track them yourself.

    Novell. That's been said to be at the root of many a problem. So it didn't occur to you to mention Novell equipment was involved. How did Logicked explain a similar situation, again?

    Access will be available, but have you seen the vast number of people who not only refuse to use that access, they jeer at the people who have gone on record that they will. Boy those people are going to be fun to mess with. What am I saying, "going to be"? They already are. Their tears, outrage, and cries of "I'm being oppressed, but not really because oppression isn't happening; What do you think I am, a SJW?" are delicious.

    From experience, I find that what you are likely doing is not tracking your purchases at all which is a perfectly valid approach. All of my purchases were the right decision at the time.

    The w is lower case because they think it makes them look trendy, hip, and modern. It is basically a comb over.

    Entertainment. I write and earn money from ads. I'm looking at making videos and taken tentative steps in that direction. I am getting "paid" in points that can be converted to store cash value vouchers at various stores for using Bing, formerly a consumption activity. Monetization is becoming the new job.

    Norton claims that physical access is required. Whether it actually does or not remains to be seen. Personally I would not take Norton's word for it. The rest of them see this as a situation that warrants a patch.

    What was the software running on it? Or did it crash without any non-IBM supplied hardware or software? Were human beings involved or did it solely interact with other systemsâ? I want to identify issues that were triggered as a reault of PEBCAK. Did Mossad break into your home and steal your shoes, as well?

  15. Which does nothing to establish whether it is more or less safe than a human driver which is also very bad. Also, none of the other SDCs were the SDCs that had wrecks, so all of them have perfect driving records.

    You can compare anything. In fact, I once compared God with a dead hamster. The dead hamster had several admirable qualites God lacked, btw.

    Well, who was the BIOS manufacturer and is it a 486-66 that can be fitted nasally? Even the constraint 8MB 486-66 involves a wide variety of 3rd party elements in the hardware/software stack.

    Or were simply running it under different constraints than you were. For me Windows Vista was the worst OS ever, but then I was running it on a budget Dell of the era, File manager is important to me, and File manager kept becoming noneesponding. Couldn't upgrade to 7 fast enough.

    Fine, I'll try to state it in a manner that is relevant: 16-bit Windows support, which 32-bit Windows generally has, and if Microsoft wanted to emulate a 16-bit x86 environment, 64-bit Windows could as well.

  24. Self-driving cars have participated in 0 fatal car accidents so that day is already here.

  25. And to some degree, so are SDCs, so why are you arguing a moot point?
