  1. Maybe that's why they coneived .NET on Security Affecting Microsoft's Bottom Line · · Score: 4, Insightful

    A lot of people realize that most of their new software will run on the .NET runtime virtually eliminating (probably) most of the programming vulnerabilities that exploits take advantage of (buffer overflows, unchecked casts, etc).

  2. Re:ACLU to help out? on Symantec Says No To Pro-Gun Sites · · Score: 1

    Please bear in mind that the "army" of the *revolutionary* period was made in part of "minute men" who employed their own personal weapons

    Right, the militia were organized by the revolting, acting "government". And the men happened to have used their personal weapons. Well, are you suggesting that the only reason that one should have weapons in their home is to immediately have access to one should they be drafted into a militia? Defend their home?

    If you are so persistantly hostile to the rights affirmed in our constitution ...

    A false conclusion. Having a perfectly reasonable interpretation (like your reading of the 2nd ammendment) does not make me against the ammendment, let alone hostile toward our constitution. You put forth a false observation, draw a conclusion from that, then increasingly moving toward the extreme by stating that I should overthrow the constitution, and then, by induction, the government entirely. You have turned someone saying that they believe that a militia as referred to in the ammendment means a government organized group of non-military citizens to suggesting I am close to the propostion that I'd like to lead a revolution. Indeed, your logic is beyond flawed.

    Simply put, to be a stickler: a miltia is organized by the government (local or otherwise). An being eligible for one, does not make you a member of one, in peace-time as well as in some invasion by communists, terrorists, or whatever the MacCarthys of the country are currently FUDing us with in order to exploit the resulting fear and paranoia.

    "[...] the individual's right to keep and bear arms applies only to the preservation or efficiency of a 'well-regulated militia'"

    The original definition, the second amendment, to which this is all regarding, _does_ state that the right to bear arms is reserved only for those in military service or in a militia, not for those eligible to do so. Your definistion of the word militia, is irrelevant.

    So, once again, your logic and therefore your argument, is flawed.

    On an unrelated note, please formulate an argument without falling into ad hominem attacks and other logical fallacies.

    Being eligible for service in a militia, does not make you part of a militia, so your logic is flawed.

    OR YOU COULD JUST DECLARE (oops) declare your method to throw the IOException. Either way, whether you have to add extra code for exception handling or whether you have to add code to check if an I/O error occured (and go back until you read a whole line) is probably about the same. Exceptions are just replacing the old way of using return values for error/success events.

    Or better yet, a 'embarrassment-avoidance system', when one of these visually-only modded 4 cylinders pull up to a stang at a red light and the driver insists on reving the engine to signal they want to run, the embarrassment-avoidance system can just flash a 'Potentially embarrassing warning' or maybe a 'WTF do you think you're doing?' light on the dash.

    I don't know if it still is, but the parent (at the time of me typing this) is marked as:

    They mention that they are against legislation to ban explicit material to minors only, and how a game that involves completing criminal acts including murder is probably bad for children (at least), and they are marked as TROLL. You must be kidding me? I can only hope it was a minor with mod points...otherwise I hope they're hit by a bus.
