    Anyone know what Azure is based on? Something tells me its not the MS Windows Kernel, and probably more BSD....

  3. Re:Your bugs.. your problem on Ask Slashdot: How Long Should Devs Support Software Written For Clients? · · Score: 1

    I am going to go with option c...
    find a better software company.
    I understand that mistakes happen, I have seen it and done it.
    But what I dont understand is the inability for a software company to fix a functional bug.
    This means, an issue that is in the system, when certain things happen.
    As far as your testing analogy, that is on the software company, what they charge should reflect that. That is not the job of the consumer to consider

  4. Your bugs.. your problem on Ask Slashdot: How Long Should Devs Support Software Written For Clients? · · Score: -1, Troll

    They didnt code it, you did.
    Why should they pay to fix your mistakes? Why do you think people have/had problems with MS? Because they charge you to fix them. Windows Vista and Windows 7 is a great recent example.

  5. Re:Why 2 sides on Classroom Clashes Over Science Education · · Score: 1

    I too, find it odd.
    I mean, republicans have the CHOICE to send their kids to Private School that teaches Theology. I know.. I went to a private school for High School, even though I did not believe, i had to take Theology all 4 years.
    Oddly enough, we also had science classes.
    So.... parents, if you dont like the public schools teaching, look for a private school that has a totally separate class taught by nuns.

    I would like to see someone stuff him and make him into a publicity stunt when he is dead.

    It is also how ignorant ass alcoholics who got "gentlemans Cs" in college, went MIA from the Coast Guard, and started two wars whilst never paying for them and removing consumer and environmental protections while his rich buddies get richer by betting against the middle class pronounce "Americans".
    Fuck GWB.

    Actually, they are also suing the driver.
    I saw this story on some news channel somewhere, and thought she may be culpable but it opens the door to many problems.
    She knew he was driving... immoral.
    She knew she was getting his attention... unethical
    She could have called him...ignorant
    She didnt have control over his actions... end of story

    But the 19 year old... yeah, he should be taken to the cleaners.

  14. Re:tagged failbook on SEC Calls For Review of Facebook IPO · · Score: 2

    This only goes to show the greed in this country is still at peak levels.
    Anyone with 5th grade education and 2 years in the real world would have realized the hype was driving the market, and even Facebook was buying into it by increasing the number of available shares. Attempting to cash in on as much as possible.
    Farewell facebook, I will miss your drunken postings, and ignorant comments made by the simple minded that is your user base, of which you base your value.

  15. Re:not very practical currently, but pretty cool. on Turning Soap Film Into a Projector Screen · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It may lead to better things however. For those inventors out there that want to bring true 3D to everyone by projecting it onto a 2D plane, they now have a different line of thinking to take.
    Now they can think about 3d encapsulation objects to bring out true 3d.

    I dont know why they would do this.. I mean, certain groups are against aborting and require you jam a rod up the hole for an education on why abortion is bad.
    I, for one, thinking aborting to save a life is the right choice, but others think aborting should be left to "god".

    Wait... what are we talking about?

    Yes, and one of my concerns about this bill is that a kidnap victim was actually found by this method.

    Will obtaining a warrant delay this type of thing, is it worth it?

    You really think that?
    I mean, disregard the fact that he can achieve the full 1.5 during the day, meaning it can get the full bandwidth.
    Disregard the fact that even though DSL is advertised as not "shared bandwidth", it is still shared.
    And disregard the fact that DSL is susceptible to EMI like no other...
    I mean sure.. then a schmuck who buys a jar of white paste that they thought was mayo is screwed when the label says "up to and including mayo!"

    That is ignorant thinking.
    What if the new people you bring in fuck up more than the cost of the old?
    This is more than likely and more apt to happen, also your security prevention has just taken a dump as well as projects, known issues, preventative... everything

    And that is the point... what incentive is there for Adobe to make sure there are little to none security flaws when they make consumers pay for the "fixes"?
    None of course, and can even breed a corporate strategy of "who can hide the best security flaw so we force people to upgrade?".
