If only Windows 8 would be Vista 2.0. A year after Vista was released it was quite usable, because there were finally stable drivers available. For the rest there is not that much difference between Vista and 7. Windows 8 is a completely different ballgame.
Same thing on the other side (i.e. the software creator side). Bean counters and management are more interested in selling half finished software that needs to be delivered yesterday.
Now it's legal to hack their network. Which is a nice move for white hats, but it also gives black hats permission to fuck around with people's private data.
Why not provide a copy of the facebook software with mock up data to which you give permission to hack.
I think there's a better chance that the port to Linux of Steam will be used to crowdtest it so that they can eventually use it for their Steambox (i.e. PC like console running just Steam (on Linux)).
That's exactly the point I'm trying to make. Apparently you have zero trust on me and demand my credentials to check on me, because without checking you cannot trust me. I'm not asking you to trust me. I'm just saying you shouldn't distrust me to start with. Trust is earned, just like distrust. I made a little error in the translation, although it doesn't make much of a difference, it's more like "The host who distrusts his guest, is probably untrustworthy". But it doesn't make much of a difference. If you start of with distrusting your employees, then what reason would your employees have to trust you. Legally your employers are required to keep company shit secret, because, that's what you put into their contracts, right?
So this guy, Zicree, saved sliders? Or at least, that's what they claim in the kickstarter video. In that case I have little trust in the quality of this kickstarter project. Sliders pretty much went to shit in the season Zicree came on board.
Ah yes, New Super Mario Bros. Nintendo really fucked up on that one. It's a game for a portable device, but allowing you to save after completing a single level is unlocked after defeating the end boss. Also, 6 buttons available... but only 2 used and you have to use the touch screen to deploy your saved powerup.
If I would ever become a criminal or terrorist I'm already prepared for dumb technology like this. I have long hair, a moustache and a goatee. After I committed my crime I will simple shave and cut my hair. And that's simply the easy, quick and painless change. Sure, if I'm a foreigner I might it means I probably entered the country by showing my passport. So they would probably know who I/was/. But because I'm changed my appearance drastically they would have a hard time to find me. The people that looked a bit like the "old" me would probably have a more difficult life than me.
Early on, the Windows team explored an inch-based scaling system, but found out that bitmaps would look blurry when scaled to unpredictable sizes.
Really?! Who would have thought that.
But do I understand correctly that Windows 8 (Metro) will pretty much abolish higher resolutions? Higher resolution, but still the same amount of screen estate.

You've got to love this free world we have, not living in fear form terror.
The government is here to keep us safe from... themselves?

You would still be running Windows XP on those VM guests.
Logica used to be a UK company, but since 2012 it is owned by the Canadian CGI group

Almost, the story needs more explosions and a comic relief.
Be sure to shoot the film in 3D.
It's not "too hard." NASA can write bug-free code, right?
No: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_software_bugs
It lists 4 software bugs for NASA in the "Space exploration" section.
Meh I could teach you to write basic code in a day. The difference is, nobody hires people because "they know how to write code".
Yes they do, a lot., because those people are much cheaper.
Did you miss the news? Oracle lost that battle on all claims.
Of course they can still sue.

So, no.

You wouldn't steal a house, You wouldn't steal a city.
But you're free to build one exactly like it (more or less "copy it") and use it the way you like.
There are some languages which are better off dead. VisualBasic for example.

You work for the TSA I assume?
In Dutch we have a saying roughly translated to: He who distrust others, is probably untrustworthy.
Seriously, some people should be banned for life from writing stories.
fixed it for you

Only $87k, it's nothing compared to other virtual insurances like the US Dollar or the Euro.

Just like the novelty of the Eifel Tower, Liberty Statue, Tower of Pisa, etc. have worn off?

Indeed. It's aol all over again. For someone that doesn't have a facebook account it becomes more and more difficult to access parts of the internet.
