1. The service provider can send people random texts when it detects they are just heading to a crowded area. 2. I'm going to write a block-incoming-text/call-until-I-reach-my-destination app and put it for iPhone and Android. I'd bet terrorists all over the world are going to buy it like crazy!
Microsoft makes deals with PC manufacturers, who then bundle Windows and sell to end customers. If you buy such a PC, and don't want Windows, you should talk to your manufacturer instead. Why is it an issue for Microsoft to deal with, or make it convenient for you to get a refund from your PC manufacturer? It just doesn't make sense.
So the worm is not perfect, but who is? They may not have had time to build it into perfection due to time constraints. Maybe they deemed it necessary to release something that worked as soon as possible, instead of when it's too late.
Americans do not abandon science and engineering because they couldn't get the jobs. They abandon them because they are hard and do not earn enough money. Why be a hardworking engineer when you can basically steal everyone's money legally at Wall Street, or be a lawyer?
I don't follow this closely at all, but I would think if there was anything really interesting it would have been picked up by enough mainstream media outlets that it would have been difficult to avoid.
He was saying it was easy for the 6-year-old to use photoshop to do this, but it would take several weeks to implement the same feature of photoshop in the scanner software. I thought it was easy to understand, even a 6-year-old could do it.
How about you cut this 'anti-legal-immigration' crap and fix illegal immigration instead?
I am a legal immigrant. I came to the US more than 10 years ago and had two master degrees in an Ivy League school. It took me about 3.5 years to get a greencard, and I considered myself bloody lucky. Many people waited for more than 5 years and counting.
While at the same time, all the politicians are talking about 'comprehensive immigraiton reform', the core of which is to give ILLEGAL immigrants a legal path. Great, nobody really cares about the legal ones and how to help THEM get permanent residence in the US, which is good for both the individual and the country.
10 years ago, most of us who came to the US to study wanted to stay. 10 years later, many of us actually prefer going back. So, there is no need for you to shout 'go back to XXX', they'll make their own choice, but do you really think that's good for the US that it's no longer the No.1 place talented people want to go?

So sue the manufacturer instead.
Someday people will stop using his software
Yes, but now I cannot stop posting. :(
Can't be switched off? We finally found perpetual motion. It's huge!
I guess some folks tried to type that via the phone..
It can sync with Google contacts and Calendar. So yah, you are wrong.
Really? Then how come Dick Cheney didn't replace George Bush as the president?
Oh wait, maybe he did, just without the title.

I take that you read every sentence of every Term of Services and comprehend every word of it before you click any OK buttons?
If so, you are my new hero.
Some extensions I installed use the status bar to display, you guessed it, their status.
Could anyone inform me how the hell would that work if the bar is gone???
Verizon is going to announce a new Windows phone tomorrow, the Kin(g) of Kins.

Like this one?

Ask the Feds to stop luring people into conducting illegal activities first.
Oops, fat fingers. I meant this.

You mean like this and this?
Not by slashdotters. They don't even RTFA, sometimes not even RTFS.
The typical response is: No....well.

It's like asking slashdoters to RTFA. Umpossible!
Because unlike illegal immigrants, they don't have a huge voting population to back them up. So nobody cares.
