If the Air Force doesn't have good IT personnel, is that the fault of the personnel, or the management that won't bother to either hire better personnel or train up the ones that they do have? One way or another this is pretty damning for any Military Intelligence to have.
Conversely, anyone that doesn't agree to be bought by Microsoft knows that if they want your technology bad enough, they will just clone it. Citrix -> Terminal Services, Netscape -> Internet Explorer and IIS, Oracle -> SQL Server. They might not succeed, but in either case you're facing competition and uncertainty just by saying no.
Take a hint from the BSA. Once they ran out of legitimate infringements they came after business owners that were marginally not up to their license counts, or even worse, were using legitimate software, but didn't have the receipts to prove it. (Apparently the genuine certificates weren't worth a damn.) If catching piracy supports their bottom line, then it makes sense to them to extend the definition of piracy to the point where nearly everyone is guilty. And that's considered good business. Profitable business.
Continued noncompliance would only lead to a higher fine. If they made 14 billion last year, minus the 1 billion, then how would they survive next year if the fine was raised by 10x?
That's retarded, there's no firmware updater out there that won't at least do a simple md5 check. Did you expect your connection to be perfect all the time? What if you get only half a download? Happens even with a fully resolving and working site. Now if some malicious party were to hijack or obtain the domain after the owners have vacated it though, that's another matter, as they might be able to push malware directly onto your embedded system. But it will still have to pass the check.
I'd have to say though, that from what I saw when I was in America (2000), there is chinese food, and then there's the stuff that they market to you as chinese food. Apparently not the same, since no chinese person would be caught dead with the stuff you guys are eating.
On the one hand, they could be acting on their clients explicit instructions, making the plaintiff directly at fault here. On the other hand, they ought to know better, and inform their client that there are lines they aren't supposed to cross. Either way, this is good news. Hopefully it will either lead to less people willing to bring frivolous suits, or less lawyers being willing to represent them.
Definitely A. The one thing the RIAA wouldn't do is to push this judge to make further rulings, especially those that would set bad precedents for them.
This i believe is related to a Dilbert principle: People act, then rationalize what they did, rather than observe the issues and act upon them. Our minds are naturally wired to think fourth dimensionally it appears.
ME-tan is by far the favorite, that's why. Microsoft doesn't have a sense of humor, and don't want to be depicted with promoting an OS that is frankly an embarrassment. Besides, isn't their corporate culture to rip off someone else's ideas and implement it poorly?
Anonymous isn't anonymous for no reason. And they don't wear V masks because they think it's cool. Well, maybe a bit cool. Another thing I want to say is that you'd have to think long and hard before stopping an organization from putting roadblocks to the spread of it's ideas, (like say, through merchandise). Sure it's wrong that they're blocking the resale, but does it really hurt you more than it hurts them?
When I buy my HP notebooks they come with 2 install disks - one for XP and the other for Vista. And the sticker CD-key is for vista, not that you'll need it, because the OEM disk hacks the OS into not requiring a key even for reinstallation.
You really can't expect a presidential candidate to personally answer all requests or even all media requests. That task alone takes at least 100 hours per day, which means you need to have a number of people doing it. I expect there to be at least a set of guidelines for you to follow when you do represent your candidate, as to what the answers should be. And there should be an avenue by which you can check with your candidate for the questions that the guidelines do not cover. What you say represents his stance. Otherwise why would anyone bother reading the replies?

In Soviet Canada, NASA is the ministry in charge of Gundam.
Wait...
Nowadays Outlook and Word, they're sold together anyway. You're not being forced to buy one product because you bought the other.

It's more likely that the hole was reported to the project maintainers before being publicly released, giving them a chance to fix it
Now there has to be a ministry in charge of Gundam!

Well, it somehow brings to mind the concept that willful disregard isn't on the table. Is it a get-out-of-jail-free card?

Well what about the music inside it? isn't that worth anything?
You can't possibly be number one at American law breaking till you've unilaterally bombed burned and blasted a foreign country to shit.
I've tried spoofing IE to OWA on an earlier Firefox maybe about a year back. It wasn't pretty, alot of things broke. Have things changed since then?
It was either that or outsource scripts to India. Imagine Bollywood style comedy on American TV...
Your 5th won't allow you to protect someone elses secrets, only your own. Seems inappropriate to me.
