    i'll admit to being jaded, but i won't change until humanity does something to restore my faith on this matter. frankly women need to take a breath between talking about their vagina's and their feelings and realize they are part of the problem.

    they want the cock, they don't want the cock. i seriously think most of them just don't know themselves, and just randomly pick moments to be a slut or a virgin.

    I know of a case back home where a known whore bag went home with 2 guys to have lots of drunken sex, bragged about it to everyone and when it was ill received the story turned into rape.

  10. tax burden myths on Swiss Bank Secrecy Under Renewed Attack · · Score: 1, Insightful
    One myth that people keep repeating is that the wealthy don't pay tax.

    the fact is this is total bullshit, the top 1% in america pay almost 50% of the tax, and avoiding this is IMPOSSIBLE. and the reason it's impossible to dodge is tax departments around the world have these nice little laws which allow them to investigate you and tax you based on what they THINK you should be paying. so hiding offshore does them fuck all good

    probably so that they could keep the domain and not have it hammered by a million retards who refuse to fix their mailservers.

    remmeber they can't let the dns expire... some spammer would register it and instantly gain a backdoor to millions of mailservers that might otherwise block them.

    and why are they doing it? to stop getting hammered with requests from dumbass admins who still try a lookup on it for every single freaking email, you moron.

    thats a very poor analogy, because no one is paying for ORDB.

    if you wanted to be more accurate, it's more like you've been using your neighbours power for free and they have cut you off in order to make you get your own connection with the power company.

    your logic is all messed up. on the one hand you say don't blame the admins, and on the other your saying they shouldn't be using a privately owned spam register like ORDB.

    which is it?

    it's about personal responsibility, ORDB was free, no one supported it in it's time of need so now it's shutting up shop.

    the only person to blame is the careless mail admin who leaves ORDB in. ORDB is a free service, they have every right to take it down, hell i'm pretty amazed they left it up for a year and gave all the warnings they did.

    I do make my living from writing software and developing electronic solutions. you merely illustrate yourslef as having no talent or imagination with your post because:

    a) people will always have new problems to overcome which will require creative solutions. b) if someone makes a cheap knock off it will only be that - a cheap knock off, and no where near the quality of the product i make. it will also lag way behind my product as i develop it and lack compatability with future features (see point a)

    It's a funny thing you know, i know several people who did interships at MS and they all say the same thing - everyone there is brillant, everyone is very very smart.

    so how do they fail to be technological leaders ? don't get me wrong i think MS makes a lot of good products, sql server and .net are great products. And i think in many ways them being market leader has them in a damned if they do damned if they don't position - think if they REALLY altered windows vista how many compatability issues there would be?

    all that aside though there needs to be a fundamental corperate culture shift at MS. they have consistantly failed to engage their customers, there is no grass roots movement on the ms platform anymore. instead of relying on people wanting to use their platform, they try to trap them into it, which hardly endears anyone to them.
