I'd bet even with the "African-American Vernacular English" you've got slang variations between regions.
Absolutely. I come from the north-eastern united states and got used to what I call "Philidelphia Ebonics" now. Every movie or music you see tends to follow this dialect so I was ignorant to the fact that there were other slangs of AAVE. I moved to mid Florida a few years ago and have a hard time picking up on the AAVE slang. They have a creole undertone in their accent and use totally different words then their northern brethren. Let's just say it is drastic enough, if I end up talking to my stereotypical-poor-black-ghetto-style friend on the cell phone, it is practically unintelligible.
Are you actually implying that it would be better without the FDA? Think about what the FDA actually lets through (think Fen-phen and the likes)... this is shit that was clearly dangerous but the drug companies just wanted their money, and the FDA still passed it. While their methods are obviously broken to some degree, imagine no FDA. We'd go back to the 1900's where they sell snake oil for all sorts of problems with no organization to even test or approve it... it just gets thrown on the shelves. Which would you rather have?
I have never gotten malware/spyware from an online social site.
Or so you think. It could be that you have caught one of the ~50% of unknown viruses out there via a mere flash/java exploit... and a good one, you'd never know.
Remember, idiot and smart are subjective, just like good and bad. With no "bad", you have no comparison of what is "good". If you eliminate all of the idiots, a ratio of those not eliminated become the new idiots... until you have no one left.
Have you ever USED OpenOffice productively? I say "used" intentionally, because you can't be productive in it, unless you are typing up a resume that you are going to fax to someone. So if you ever used it, you have already stopped. Almost all office suite users use MS Office of some sort. OpenOffice is LUCKY if it get even half of a Word document formatted correctly when opened up in MS Office. Calc is a joke and not even comparable to Excel. Evolution is a piece of garbage that constantly crashes... even on Linux.
I used to drink the same Kool-aid as you. Then I actually opened my eyes.
I've seen some companies actually be proactive, but it is easy for firms to fall into the "we'll cross that bridge when we come to it" trap.
To be honest, in all of my years as a programmer eventually becoming a full software engineer (meaning I design, implement, and maintain software solutions), doing it "The Right Way" has always lead to bankruptcy. Always. Of course correlation is not causation, but for the times I've seen companies fail when "following the process" vs. "Release early and often", the latter half were the ones to stay in business.
"matured" indeed. bind is known for carrying plentiful amounts of exploits to the point of MS Exchange/IE. It's coders must be basement dwellers because by now they should know how to create and follow a process.
Shit dude. A real man assembles servers with the power supply plugged in, wearing a wedding band and a large gold Mr T style chain around their neck, with NO wrist strap. In the swimming pool. Kids these days.
Have you ever taken an MSDN certification for Windows NT 4 (long time ago, required for a contract). ALL questions revolved around migrating to/from Novell networks and integrating them. However they depended on one another, they certainly did.
This is a load of bull. I lost my internet connection for two days and couldn't play a single steam game. Do you know why? Because you have to be ONLINE to go into offline mode.
When everyone carries a gun, only the truly crazy people try and use them on another person.
Imagine being at, say, McDonalds and the rough looking guy in a ski mask brings in a gun, fires a few shots at the ceiling and demands all the money from the registers.
In a normal scenario in any heavily gun controlled location, the guy may end up shooting a couple of people and even get away with some cash. If everyone was carrying, the moment he pulled out his gun, the rest of the establishment will have a gun pointed at the perp.
It's a better situation. Think about it. Really think about it.

What about aluminium? Those crazy brits always trying to confuse things.
Yeah, so you forgot your closing ). I. Hate. You.
Not only that, but Tor isn't nearly as secure as most people think it is

I can't see them ANYWHERE I look, so that is the only place left they could be

Humor is relative. Get a fucking grip.

If you were going to throw these on a torrent, I recommend trying this BEFORE you format the drive.

How the hell is this modded down twice as offtopic when I was replying completely on topic of the original parent, who's karma hasn't been touched?

Like flying cars?
YouTube has every right to take down the video for absolutely no reason other than they don't like his face
No they can't (necessarily). That would be discrimination against ugly people. You can't treat people different based on any defining traits.
Any drugs, even asprin must be administered by a school nurse. Always.
