I'm all for sexism. Now, what are we going to do to reverse the trend of fewer and fewer males attending and graduating college? How about the lack of male veterinarians and elementary school teachers?
Well, considering the negative responses I can see in this discussion (he probably also makes millions in stock and bonuses, $1 million is a drop in the bucket, etc.) I imagine the applause of the general public isn't one of his motivations.
Forget about the class warfare, OK? Even Bruce Springsteen would agree that as long as everyone is winning, it shouldn't matter if someone is winning more. There are few places in the USA where $70K/year is not a good salary. I doubt those high-fiving employees who just had their salaries doubled think it's a "publicity stunt".
Singlehandedly, he returned $930,000 to the bottom line of his company. Most of us can't make such a claim. But that only accounts for boosting about 25 people who were making $34K to $70K, so unless his company is quite small, I'm sure other strategies were employed. We'll see how effective those strategies are over the coming years. That will tell us if he's just a good guy, or a great CEO.
That's exactly what I've been arguing. I don't know in what kind of economy having a free option-- even a limited one-- could cause prices to go UP. At worst, they would stay the same, if the only people to use the free service were people who could honestly afford to pay nothing and therefore had no internet at all.
Except when this extra-judicial kind of accusation takes place, the accused normally gets a Kafkaesque review process, devoid of actual evidence other than the original claim, that usually ends up either with an expulsion or sanctions imposed to such a degree that the student is forced to leave.
In other words, it's not really on the record and the HuffingPaintPost is getting useless data.
The Amish have REALLY slow web servers. The latency of those horse-drawn wagons is really bad, but on the bright side they are pretty big so the bandwidth is good if you use really small type on the hand-operated printing press.
Also, kernel panics are rare-- usually just when it's the end of the corn growing season, and some idiot on a motorcycle spooks the horse.
Pretty much everything you have just said is wrong. NT is not a microkernel, and if it ever was, it stopped being do by NT 4.0. And the parsing is not done in kernel space. HTTP.SYS is not a parser, it is a listener.
Even in the Americas, we tend not to talk overly much of what the Europeans did to the indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere.
Well, that's pretty much incorrect. The mistreatment of the natives was made pretty clear to us in public school in the 70s and 80s. I highly doubt there is any recent attempt to reverse that progress.
Darn young baby boomer whippersnappers are so lazy. He wouldn't have been caught if he'd just typed in the code live instead of slothfully brandishing a newfangled flash drive!

In my day, I would've had to key it in the front panel! A command shell is pure luxury!
Yeah, but he purchased the ticket himself, assuming the authorities are correct. He must have not even bothered to wear any kind of disguise, because convenience store cameras are usually so bad you can't even tell whether a perp is human.
I'm a bit surprised that anyone could use a VIC or 64 for very long without realizing that you could do Shift+Stop to break out of that. I mean, even if you didn't RTFM (which was excellent for the VIC) you knew to do that to break out of a running BASIC program-- so why not try it elsewhere?
The very statement "laughing stock" is a comparative one, so I was answering that fallacious statement. Obviously, felony charges for changing desktop wallpaper is absurd, and so are the other items I mentioned.

So now they will have cash? MAGIC!
Don't give them any ideas.

You just gave me a bunch of comparative figures, which shows me you STILL think life is a zero-sum game.

Who forced him? You said never.
And yes, this kind of bold thinking is rare. That's why success is business is almost as rare.
Yes. He returned $930,000 to the bottom line. How many of us do that? And he took a 20% pay hit. How many of us are willing to do that?
I don't even understand your comment. It's not even funny. A capitalist decided, on his own, without government interference, to increase pay.

They're not parsing HTTP in the kernel. HTTP.SYS is a listener.
No, Windows 2000 Professional was built on Windows 2000.
My media center said GRUB when I turned it on, so I thought we were back in 1999.

No, but when winter came the gorillas froze to death.
Morality is not relative.
That being said, FDR was a villain, and not just for the Japanese internment.

Government will basically claim ANYTHING improves the economy except the one thing everyone wants: lower taxes across the board.
They'll claim that welfare and UC improve the economy by giving poor people more buying power.
They'll claim tax breaks for crony corporations (auto manufacturers, green energy) give them incentive to hire.
But apparently, this doesn't work if we let everyone keep more of their money. They'll just bury it in the backyard.

OK, I don't get it. American culture is defective because straight men don't kiss other men? I'm having trouble keeping up.
Wait, no-- you're just an idiot. Had me going there for a minute.
