You are not running the latest version of Foxfire, upgrade now to version 3.0. Hold on, we jumped to 9. Wait, it's 10. Wait, it's at 11. Oh, we just went to 12.
Gosh, doesn't that render illegal the round-up of suspected "illegal aliens" (they are persons, not necessarily "citizens"), as well as the "you must have government-issued identification papers to vote" ? Maybe we should all read this Constitution thing.
What if you create an encryption key, upload a few files, and then forget the key and lose any written copies? How can they force you to provide something which no longer exists?
Correction: That is "a piece of malware" -- you cannot have "a malware" or "a software" or "a hardware" or "a clothing" or "an information" -- you have a piece of malware, software, hardware, clothing, or information.
If Italy can sue scientists for failing to prognosticate an earthquake, can the bereaved relatives of future Japanese disaster victims sue Facebook for the trauma of seeing their loved one was incorrectly shown "Safe" ?
How much do you charge for every hour of your time wasted doing endless updates to your client's Windows systems, and removing viruses? You don't give that away, do you? DO YOU? If your customers had to pay the full freight for your time, they would understand why Linux is better. If you are giving away your time -- why are you hurting yourself?
Microsoft's juggernaut rolls on your back, precisely because MS depends on geeks like you to do all the hard work that people think is free. If everyone had to pay for the $1000 of your time you gave away, they would see the advantages of Linux or even Mac. So stop insulting yourself by giving your time away for free... aren't you worth it? Let people really understand the pain of Microsoft.
Does your computer run "many softwares" --? No, it runs many software packages, many software programs, many pieces of software. Do you wear different clothings? No, you wear different clothing, or different clothes.
"Stuff" is a singular noun that means "a lot of things" -- "...looking at the stuff I write on the paper..." is correct, or are you writing more than one group of stuff at once?
"Firmware" is a word like "software," "hardware," or "clothing" -- you cannot have "one firmware" and there is no such thing as plural "firmwares." You cannot have "a software" or "a clothing" -- you have a piece of software (or: a program), a piece of clothing (or: a garment), a piece of firmware (a firmware set, a firmware package, etc.).
Please correct the article here: "how the devices' stock firmwares operate" -- that should be "...stock firmware operates..." as the device has one set of firmware, composed perhaps of several programs or packages.
I registered on their bug tracker but cannot decipher to whom or how I should report this grammar error as a documentation flaw -- any suggestions?
Anything we do, "could potentially" do something, or nothing, or upset part of Mother Nature that proves unexpectedly fragile.
Unless Mankind goes away, we will continue to influence the environment forever.
I suggest doing Nothing as the only possible prudent course of action.
Since when are ports like that found on "ordinary" television sets? An "ordinary" set is lucky to have even a composite RCA plug input, or maybe it has just been awhile since I purchased one?
Signing up for news bulletins from the people you oppose, raises the delightful opportunity of staging counter-protests that are _larger_ than the "originals." This can be utilized to the great amusement of nearly everyone involved. Have fun!
Agreed, why go to Starpunks when Dunkin Donuts has coffee twice as good, for half the price... Have you noticed that after Burger King had 99 cent Whoppers for years, when they jacked the price way up, sales seemingly went to zero? BK did a great job of making people think a Whopper was only "worth" 99 cents. Practically all the Burger Kings in Phoenix are something else now.
Clearly, Manmade Globular Worming, caused by evil soccer moms driving gas-guzzling SUVs, is the root of all evil. Someone tell Algore to shut off his weather-control satellites.
Automobile students, squeamish about getting grease on their fingers, are clamoring to have their hands-on experience replaced by computer simulations. Heaven help us when the airplane industry does the same.
Over the past few years, folks in Phoenix have picked up the Californianesque annoyance of calling Interstate Highway 10, "the" 10... "The 10 what?" I ask, since they are using it as an adjective. I finally got someone to say, "Oh, the 10 'freeway'." Where "freeway" apparently just means "limited access highway" so they are calling it the Highway 10 highway. Ugh. That needs to be quashed by the Department of Redundancy Department, along with the British "the M1 Motorway" (the Motorway 1 Motorway) and "Personal Identification Number number."

And what of Adam Osborne, creator of the first portable IBM PC Compatible computer? He died in 2003.
Or fallout.

What will this do to the supply of Girl Scout Samoa cookies? (For the record, I hoarded Manila folders when the Marcos government fell.)

You can't sit in the park and whittle? Seriously?
So, take "the" Interstate Highway 15 or take "the" Route 101? How can anyone even think, much less say that?
