  1. Good on you Apple. Now I hear there's a ton of fraud in Toronto with regards to Apple repair. Any comments on that? Are those crickets I hear?

    Honestly, I swear the police are either all fucking morons, or all actively trying to find ways to bypass laws which say "you can't fucking do that assholes".

    A little from column A and a little from column B.

  11. It speaks volumes how few people are willing to comment on this subject.

  12. You can't launder money, that threatens the banks! Jail time for you! Of course when it's billions of dollars and the banks are doing it, they get minor fines.

    So you have three issues with Linux and two of them are the same thing. Wifi. In my not inconsiderable experience, Windows supports roughly zero wireless cards out of the box, Linux only supports about 96%. What was your issue again?

    "This is stealing"

    "I honestly don't understand why people have such a hard time grasping the simple idea."

    No this is stealing:

    steal ( P ) Pronunciation Key (stl) v. stole, (stl) stoÂlen, (stln) stealÂing, steals v. tr. 1. To take (the property of another) without right or permission. 2. To get or effect surreptitiously or artfully: steal a kiss; stole the ball from an opponent.

    To TAKE, not to copy. Furthermore theft is defined as:
    1. The act or an instance of stealing; larceny. 2. Obsolete. Something stolen.

    The legal definition of theft goes further:

    "1. (Law) The act of stealing; specifically, the felonious taking and removing of personal property, with an intent to deprive the rightful owner of the same; larceny. Note: To constitute theft there must be a taking without the owner's consent, and it must be unlawful or felonious; every part of the property stolen must be removed, however slightly, from its former position; and it must be, at least momentarily, in the complete possession of the thief. See Larceny, and the Note under Robbery."
