On Aug. 1, Salesforce.com "attempted to take its systems live for My Pillow" but more than 100 components "were not functional," his suit adds. Furlong subsequently disputed the $125,000 charge with American Express, and Salesforce.com credited back the amount, the filing states
I know, I know... Reading the actual story and all...
Certainly there is a conspiracy, but there is nothing mysterious about it.
It is clearly advantageous for companies to hire people that will be happy with flat earnings and no job advancement opportunities, as well as fewer costs associated with the eventual lay-off.
People like to say H1Bs make the same wages as other IT folks, and this may well be true, but they do help keep wages flat, and their overall cost is less.
When I recieved the confirmation that I had a set of tickets to this event, I literally creamed my pants. I have heard rumors that Steve Jobs faked his death and will eventually show up to announce a new product, perhaps the Dick Tracy Watch, which would be Apple's greated technological leap.
"Look, you can licence our patents, or we can sue you. It really doesn't matter if you're using our patents or not, well tie you up in court for YEARS. Your choice..."
At 24, he's a "senior Australian IT professional" for an "international IT company"? Well, there's your problem right there. Skinny jeans and a hoodie? Check! Who hired this guy?
A huge proportion of the hours worked at federal agencies are billed as overtime, either because of short staffing or really lenient scheduling policies that allow workers to trade shifts to maximize income.
If you make a statement like that, perhaps you can show a reference that backs it up?
How is it a "data breach" â" or at least how is such a "breach" Google's issue when it's on the user's side? How can it be illegal to acquire signals "floating freely" through the air? Did Google "crack" anythingâ? Use any "back doors"? I'm sure we'll see a lot of "unlocked door" analogies and perhaps a "car analogy" or two, but this is a "left a Euro on the sidewalk" type deal here...
I know, Google is the new boogieman after Apple and Microsoft...
Cloth is a flexible woven material consisting of a network of natural or artificial fibres often referred to as thread or yarn.
Paper can be made of many things including cotton and linen. Paper is a thin material mainly used for writing upon, printing upon, drawing or for packaging. It is produced by pressing together moist fibers, typically cellulose pulp derived from wood, rags or grasses, and drying them into flexible sheets.
Note the military style shoes/boots on the two buff goons in the image from the link above, and the random sneaker shoes on the suspects. Also though one FBI suspect is wearing tan pants, the other is not, and nether "carry" themselves like the two goons.
But let's not let a good conspiracy theory get in to way of common sense...
Of course since Windows is "out of favor" here, one does not necessarily mention that Microsoft's "Security Essentials" is easily as good as most commercial Windows anti-malware packages, and much more "light weight". And free. And yes, everyone knows that Microsoft purchased the original technology (so what?)...
Especially when actually getting those jobs with NSA means offering up your entire life for continuous monitoring, not only on the job but every minute of every day for the rest of your life.
Anyone who has a security clearance has been through this gauntlet, and that a whole lot of people.

ACs don't bother. You're filtered. I don't even know you're there.
I wish I could filter out trolls and flaimbait like you as well!

Doesn't everybody? It's not that hard...
How could people this dumb have so much disposable income?
They lifted it off other dumb people.
If you read the article, the issue occurred while he was the ambassador. Go on, have a read and a rethink
OK,,,
Out of the way you peons, it's the BELGIAN AMBASSADOR!

Because age and clothing determine ability. SMH
Quite often they are an indication of maturity.

Tyvek is clearly NOT "cloth", being a plastic-like sheet.
My Gore-Tex jacket most certainly IS made from woven materiel.
This guy isn't just anybody, he's a former Belgian ambassador.
Out of the way you peons, it the FORMER BELGIAN AMBASSADOR!
The Medical Information Bureau has all your health history available to anyone with the $$$.
"Medical Information Bureau"? Never heard of them.
But of course, if anyone is releasing medical data on people without their permission, they are already breaking Federal Law...

Really? Not into Internet porn, I take it...
It's cloth, actually. Currency isn't printed on paper, it's roughly 75% cotton, 25% linen.
U.S. currency is printed on paper

Never had that problem. Yes, I think you are full of fanboi AstroTurf bullshit...

"AV-TEST institute" is well known to require financial investment for a top rating, their recommendations - such that they are - are highly suspect.

I think you spend much too much time on Slashdot. Perhaps you should take up masturbation.

Just because you're a php whore doesn't make it any less true.
I'm a PHP Whore? Really?
Why don't you post with your account instead of "Anonymous Coward", and we'll talk about it?
At least I have the BALLS to post with my logged-in user name. Unlike you.
Whatever buddy, go back to masturbating in you mom's basement.
In some cases, yes. But in this case it wasn't true. So there is an extra troll factor added.
