In cases like this , the dialog boxes should have a minimum show time before OK is enabled, there by forcing the user to read, but only for serious dialog boxes.
Again its microsofts fault for not thinking of this feature to be part of all APIs, with one simple parameter. Oh and using a 2x larger red font cannot hurt in the slightlest for serious warnings.
One giant dinasaoar will feed like 1000s of mice for weeks or months.
Just do the math, a little mice needs less than 10g of food for months to be alive, the stupid blahasouraus needs truck loads weekly to live or get thin and die fast.
last 100 years, to us.... WOW so relavent, to aliens, ahh just a small blip. 40000 years is significant.
Whos to not know that the govts have made contact but are keeping it secret like the 10000 other secrets, now you know why lawyers become politicians.
Its like a tribe in Brazil saying, "we have seen no tribes for 5 generations, the whole world must be wiped out"
Get over it, either aliens dont give a rats ass, or they have morals and leave us alone, or are waiting for slowmotion take over taking 2500+ years.
Even if we are alone, the thought/hope of aliens is enough to make us want to explore other planets so that we eventually will do what we thought aliens will do just so we preserve our selves. Else all this usual locallized 'life' is just boring dull and none sustainable.
What possible components can firefox need from SP3? WMP 11 ? Some obscure api somewhere? Or is it that not one can be bothered to keep a VMware XPsp2 system running to test with.
I bet there still will be more sp2 systems out there than PPC macs.
What possible dependancy of SP3 could firefox need?
To make code work even in Win2000 is trivial, unless yourequire the latest 1gig of new APIs. Even then stop being lazy, find portable libs to use.
At least windows GUI api changes are extras, and not changing the core. Old APIs should always work, either by keeping old copies, or by layered emulation.
The govt keeps secrets from me, so I have my own secrets, and they are classified.
Im just suprised lots of org crime are stupid enough to 'keep cash', they should convert the majority to gold as it takes less space and is untraceable. "Its my grandmas from ww2"
Organized criminals should also rent and lease cars, so nothing can be 'repossed' and taken as proceeds of crime.
All federal taxes go in one column, govt debts in another, both cancel out.
Therefore zero taxes pay for services and military, its all due to corporate taxes and 'fees'.
To govt could default on debt, and then say, ok we have no income tax, everyones happy. If you lost 10000s in govt bonds, bad luck, you get to live now tax free.
1. these systems are NOT new, and arent connected directly to the net except incoming emails.
2. control stations arent controlled by users desktop systems.
3. gambling networks are more secure, and older.
4. this is an excuse to create a mass event, so they can find a reason to 'SECURE THE NET' via EVIL means, ie, only authorized webservers, all ports but 80 blocked, everything logged.
Add tcp/ip/http overhead, thats 1000 urls a second.
Make a nice screen saver that does this, give it to 2000000 people, = more HD space than they can purchase with using 2million dollars a day. 20000000 Gig a day = 20000tb = $2,000,000. Not to mention the physical space and power usage, 200000 watts daily added?
* 365, I doubt they would spend 400 million pounds, zero raid on that.
But I could be wrong, Hitler ruined his country 'policing' his people, yeah fat load of good that did, what a looser, and all his hench men and idiot subservants scum.
95% of code doesnt need to be top notch in speed, but if your code otherwise is utter god slow, ie, do one operation take 12 minutes where another app takes 2 seconds, then you have some serious shit coders.
Also if your optimization/geewiz app takes 29hrs to run 24hrs of data, then its obviously not going to get any customers.
Point is, make it fast where it matters, not everywhere. Just look at itunes, is that written in javascript or quicktime scripting?
Document and document well if your doing tricky speed optimizations, or keep both slow and fast code together with a flag to run X or Y.
Small companies would fix for free as good will and good name, large corporates, even though the fault is rare, would still say, "charge the scum".
Well screw the share holders, they are mostly real real old and gona die soon, and cannot take their money to hell with them, so they are not important.
Reading this old people? Spend your money now, dont save it, because we ALL DIE POOR.
Slashdot Mirror
Watching startrek and stargate too
one movie heated the room to 38c, so the persons heat matched the background.
Did they try this?
If they used usb for things that dont need high speed io it would have worked out of the box.
Im sure its all soo so hard coded to XP too.
Just stop all the fans on cpu and gfx cards.
Use 100% cpu, and tax the GFX core.
Send some hardcore full power commands to all USB devices, or use full IO in usb devices.
Make the HD seek from end to end for as long as possible.
Send power save on / off commands real fast to the LCD until it dies.
Spin the dvdrom up too, or turn on its laser, without a CD in it.
That baby will melt in minutes.

100,000 credit card #s, buy 1 or 2 gold coins per card, or 12 silver coins, and ship them somewhere... thats a lot of gold to get.
Doh.
hope border security is stopping those virus's without visa entry papers.

ie the bat wing type plane prototyped by boeing, but market research still wants 2 rows with windows, even tho it only represents 2/12th with windows.
For the record, both orientation women like phallic objects ;-)
If ICE just included 6am to 12am it would be legal?
its not identical, but midnight to 6am is useless informercials and evil xian funamentalist brainwashing tv.
If they included a convert all mysql to oracle schema 100% then that would be of great value and make lots of 3rd parties useless.
A TOS can violate laws and not be legal in itself.
Just because some amature lawyer makes a TOS doesnt make it as good as a constition.

Man all these lame expensive 'thinker' solutions, hwo about something cheap and practical.
Print 50000 bluray copies, and send 5 copies to each university in the world.
Theres nothing like massive redundancy to protect it.
Or print 50 million copies and send it with all packets of cornflakes.

But if everyone can earn their money and pay little or no tax then they have NO REASON to steal.
The protection I get for a $200k house, is the same as a 2m house. I dont see mansions with police patrol every 2 mins and armed guards?
The richer you get, the more you can afford to hire your own protection via technology and guards.
Own a 1m house, you can afford 10 cameras and 2 dogs. Own a 15m house, you can afford 24hr security guards.
