................ a corporation............ has only one mandate: to maximize profit.
This is a totally true statement.
No, it is not a "totally true statement". You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Try reading some of the other posts in this thread. And really, do some research before making statements that make you look like a moron.
The problem is that you may send your username and password over HTTPS, each page after that you send your auth cookie over plain ol' unencrypted HTTP
No.
This is *NOT* the problem at all.
The problem is that ridiculously entrenched tin-pot dictators continue to believe that they can control to populous like they did in the pre-Internet days when all you had to do was shut down a few newspapers and "disappear" their enemies.
Sure, there's obviously a technical process going on, but the root of the problem has nothing at all to do with computers or networks, it has to do with a fundamental change in the dynamics of how populations are controlled by despots.
A few months after we took Iraq, we secured and flew out almost 14 tons of Yellow Cake in 55 gallon drums, 4 to a pallet,on C-17's to Diego Garcia, where it was put on ships to other places.
A year or two later 3 of our pilots came down with Lymphoma. Uncle Sam says it was unrelated...

I see Microsoft is making SERIOUS inroads at astroturfing Slashdot... How many "Microsoft technology make's me cum all over myself" stories have there been in the last week or so?
What the link says is a former executive of SCO owns the domain name. And while it would be easy to build some paranoid scenario involving the evil Darl, a more reasonable speculation is that that a former executive with some knowledge of the assets sees some value in them outside of the IP lawsuit industry, which clearly failed for SCO...
Come on, folks, you're traveling between Portland OR and Las Vegas NV, and your GPS says the most direct route is over some gravel Forest Service road in the Eastern Oregon mountains... In the winter... You take it? Really?
Your GPS takes you down some deserted desert road that peters away into sand in the mifddle of Death Valley... Really?
There's not much you can do about MORONS, one way or another, they may kill themselves.

OK, this is good, but look, my butt-crack smells like cheese. This is MY main concern. Seriously, like CHEESE.
Interesting. As a fan of "stinky cheese", I've tried many a cheesy delight that smells like butt-crack.
wouldnt be the first time china was found to be doing something unscrupulous. maybe it is in their culture?
The Chinese are like Muslims: If it benefits them, it is the will of their God(s).
Now why would politicians do something that makes corporations more powerful at the expense of individuals?
Dunno - Maybe it's a Republican thing...
But that's not all they have been up to...
* Passed a bill stripping federal funding from Planned Parenthood
* Rejected a bill cutting funding to the DoD NASCAR team...
Tablets are just filling the couch niche that laptops were used for but never were very good at.
The Air Force is considering tablets for flight pubs.

Or exactly the same security as a password that is stored in Desktop/passwords.txt, anyway.
That's why I stor my passwords in a text file named PamAnderson.mpeg.
NO ONE ever even askes about it.
Microsoft is a corporation and thus it has only one mandate: to maximize profit.
Completely erroneous bullshit.
Since Howard Schmidt is a University of Phoenix graduate, I trust everything this guy says.
You're a moron. Do *you* like to rape woman like Assenge?
You're talking about "Expert Exchange".
I've never used them, paying for Internet based programming help defeats the purpose of the Internet. If that's what I wanted, I'd hire a contractor.
Worked for Iran.
Things are a changin'

Jet loads of pallets of big duty drums? Sure that's perfectly safe.
My experience with AF pilots is that they are non-political big boys with big toys - like to fly.
I know that will not make you happy, but that's most AF pilots...

Redmond doesn't have a Walmart....
But there is a Costco (the Yup equivalent of Walmart). He can check the membership cards at the front door.
I agree.
I used to "edit" quite a bit, but after being banned by some penis waiver, I just edit anon (with IP).
It's not really a "community" I want to be a part of.

About the only thing of value would be the service contracts, I think. Certainly no can be interested in SCO "technology" who is not already using it.
Perhaps they should TAKE BACK all the ip6 blocks that were allocated to the big corporate pig that they don't use...
then slowly as you continue it gets rougher and rougher, then gravel, then it just goes away.
And then maybe you... TURN AROUND?

While the game is flawed, there is no real way to get only the winners.
Unless you work with a store employee. Oh, it would NEVER happen....
To be fair, Nick, it's not at all like a test or homework. That's why "like" is incorrect.
