Only now do they see (the American government) the folly at sending out everything to be outsourced in china??? Come on guys, you pay yourselves big salaries at our expense then you realize your mistake by sending everything overseas to have the "cheaper price" but don't even realize that now the Chinese can control all pcs with the click of a button....should they so choose to?
I couldn't agree more, so many people want to pass the buck to someone who was told "no don't do this even though we know you can"...when they should come up with proper security measures, however, replace the government as the blind kid, and us people as the telco company, why are we still letting the gov. get away with so much, just because they can, aren't we just as responsible as telco to clean up our senate backyard so to speak???
Nothing would make me happier then to know we were doing something about the gov. fraud going on with politicians lining their pockets with our tax dollars, but we still let it happen..... so is it the kid's fault if telco still has a faulty system in place....
"don't go placing an alcoholic in the middle of an october fest and tell him...ok now don't drink"
We are an odd bunch, really, we like to play pool at work, do our laundry in the same building we do our work in, more bonuses, free lunch etc... is all a great reason why Google ends up with all the brightest ones. M$ started off that way, but then began cutting back and hence millennium and so forth...
If we saw more companies act like this towards their employees, we would be a happier bunch and more likely to stop working underground circles trying to get money for all the personal info we got...
I once worked in a company where all the employees were so overworked and under payed in accounting that they couldn't keep anyone for more then 6 months at a time...these are the people handling the finances for this company, imagine what they did to the IT staff...(the same president of this company never spent much money on his IT staff or IT dept, his quote was "well if it doesn't bring back any money, its useless")
It would be soooo funny if this was a media applied American move to find the Taliban...
BUSH: So you are saying let's tell them to all turn off their phone as not to be able
to track their movement? How does that work?
CHANEY: Well this is why I am vice president and you are only the president.
By telling them to do this as if I was their leader sending the message,
we will know who all the Taliban are by seeing who turns of their phones between this time.
It's sad how they test to see if fish can count, or even assume that they are in fact counting, when they could be looking at the overall size ratio of the school itself and not the fish collective individually. This is one of those studies we pay for with our tax dollars, that I would highly decree to be a waste of money.
If I look over at a group of 2 diff. gangs and by instinct I will go for the bigger gang, then chances are that I will go for the visibly larger gang. Now to test if they were actually counting, I would place 3 HUGE almost mutated fish in one group and 4 excessively small fish in another then see what the result would be. The size of the 4 fish would have to be smaller then the size of the 3 fish together
There would be no counting, its the overall size that affects their brain at a visual level, not sitting there 1 + 1 + 1 I guess I'll go with the left group....they are affected also by movement so if the school of fish all go to the left, they see the change as it happens by the group, not that they think if they go left then i go left...
I really think sometimes studies like these actually make people stupid.
Yes, but in conclusion, did affect the other surrounding countries linked by that same cable... unless they had their own cable set up to the rest of the world that I am not aware of???
Wait a second, after having read the stories about all those cables under the sea being cut, isn't it a bit of a coincidence that we (US) is now part of the blocking of Pakistan, for reason xyz.
I know I am a bit on the para side but if their intentions was to block a certain block from the rest of the world, and those cables being cut didn't quite work, I guess the next step would be to have a front story covering up what really happened, anyone can confirm with relatives in Pakistan if this is really what is going on, or just another BIG machine story the media feeds us not to question things happening over there.
Hate to be the bringer of bad news, aside from the fact that it sounds you condone genocide, in this instance bringing democracy to these people would not work, as their government wants to keep them stupid, easier to manipulate, else they would have to spend so much of their oil profits to start creating infrastructures and quelling the masses, where as now they just don't do anything about anything for anyone.
Also, their culture is backwards (any culture condoning setting your wife on fire for ASSUMING she cheated on you with no proof and walking away legally without a scratch), so for them to even see your light ( the error of their ways ) is ludicrous as they have been brainwashed all their lives by their parents, and those parents before, that this is the way of life.... and don't challenge it etc...
WoW should definitely come with a warning on the side of the box with a anorexic looking Korean who didn't wash for 3 weeks and looks like he spent his time in Ethiopia...

Well, first it should reflect you being a professional, being a graphic artist means being able to create with MANY tools, not just YOUR tools, and also, in multiple formats that everyone can use. I have used both for web development without a hitch, sure they are different, but in the end... you just get the job done, no matter what tool or environment used.
I prefer photoshop for the ease of use, but gimp does everything as well as photoshop, except I have yet to see the new gimp(mine is still the old version from Mandriva10.0 pro) and know the new illustrator to contain better 3d imaging support for flexing your images on a curve etc...cool stuff.
However not knowing about something and having an opinion about something you did use are 2 different things...just my 3.5 cents
I agree, if the site's owner was unable to know themsleves they had malware from third party cross scripting techniques, this would be a great way for them to be advised.
What do you mean I am blocked, why....oooh! ok i'll fix it up for you, and then you unblock me...thanks google, you saved the day.
you are telling me you can pinpoint someone from outside their house as to who in your neighborhood is stealing your bandwidth??? I would love to send you my employer's form, we will pay you whatever you want for this super power of yours. Welcome to the justice league...
M$ just outright sucks and this proves it, just come out with a free sp3 patch for everybody that doesn't trigger the piracy validation process, and just patches everyone's machines, if I can download a copy and burn it, I am providing it to all my friends that are computer illiterates.
This just goes to show you, it is a smoke screen for what will happen after the fact, and they will be smart enough to hide their tracks. They will go further then just provide a patch, they will install something that validates your windows and bam, oops, your not legit. Then they log you and from there you will be blacklisted with friendly reminders to get a real copy.
Mark my words, first they do what they say, then slowly it morphs into something it wasn't intended to do, but by then it's too late everyone has accepted M$ new way of doing things and doesn't raise any alarms as to what else it could be doing.
I wonder if they will give out a signature so you know which is which with your AV. Let this one by as it is M$...at the same time I hope all AV will be smart enough to include this on'es signature in the DBs.
Anyone else think this is sort of like that game Orion, where you go over to other planets and start mining all the resources you can so you can get yourself out of debt. And expand, and take on any other opponents and play till 3 in the morning....
Man, some people just dont want to read the article no matter how many times you tell them. I am glad you did read it to explain it to me, as now I don't have to read anything....
I do hope she gets a big settlement, even though I am against suing someone all together. This is a clear case of a big corp pushing away their responsibility and not owning up to it. I think its about time that the little guy ( or woman) gets properly represented against these big corps, where BB or futurshop or staples and the like learn that you can't avoid the law when it suits them.
Why do we have to settle for one or the other, why nopt both, I know many geeks that are also into hardcore training, they do exist, you would just have to try and sell them on working for peanuts.
If the army (navy, AF) were to pay better wages for the crap you go through, then it would not be a problem, they would have all the saps come out of the wood work, it's the ridiculous salaries people are avoiding all together, when they can get 6 figures consulting in IT!
I concur, even going so far as to copy a file , only shows up minimally in the event viewer as type of action which is related to the explorer, but not what was actually done, copied delete etc...
I would be the first to show the US their error in their ways. How about I show up with 200 dangling mp3 players hanging from my neck, each with a hidden trojan. As they continue to search through each one by one, their pc gets more and more infected, with malware running taking up space, but not doing anything....then crash...there goes the system.
I am soooooooo tired of the muslem community pushing their views on everyone else. Yes it may be an insult in your culture to publish a pic of the dude, which is why you should complain if it was a muslem run website, however it isn't so you shouldn't complain, learn to live with others, if everyone had the same mentality as these extremists, the pedos would say it is mentally unacceptable NOT to see naked children on all their favorite websites.
Just cause you believe in something doesn't make it right, right?!?
"I believe the world is flat and get away with murder" : (
I can't believe this, they already f*ck the little artist guy out of his money buy giving him 1$ off every cd sold after 500,000 copies, of the 22$ per cd they get...please.
I have always said I do not care for how they calculate and over inflate their pricing for copious reasons I would just as likely go to the artist's website directly download the mp3 for.99$ per song and have them get all the money, without having a middle man.
We would have more artists millionaires if they would catch on to this new business model.
