They should be taken to court, they themselves have broken their own rules in having a fair and just way of getting bids on contracts, and they not only should pay damages, but we should also open all the books to see how many times this happened in the past, and make a precedent with it. Can you imagine if google won ( i really hope they do ), not only would they go up in shares again, but also would be able to next time make a claim that because of the previous rigging of the fair contract dealings, that they were owed the next one....and guess what, once they show off and get their good products in there, and get all the people used to their products , it will be the black man of that industry, once you go google, you never go back....or something like that.
I also think if less people in position of power were actually the ones to control these things instead of a separate committee that was more unbiased and had no means of being bought off, they could actually avoid these situations.
>have the most successful reproduce This is why humans are the most successful reproducing species on the planet....not only do we reproduce like rabbits, but we also mame all other species in our areas (by building over their habitats) thereby giving us no real competitors for our resources. If we were to encounter an alien race, I wonder if we would really be the top on the food chain....
Many people that have discussed my love for animals think I am over exaggerating my point of view sometimes...some even argued that because man was intelligent (and that dogs were not) men had more right to live then dogs.... I tend to disagree, I believe it is the one with the least negative impact on its environment that has more right to live, and unfortunately , this would make us first in line to die as a species.
They are doing what MS was doing for a long time. They bought a competitor, and / or some add in(on) to their product. This will give them more quality programmers and also any code that is better then their own, will be assimilated. Good for them.
>Why are those things necessary These are 2fold....first off this is always the way, military gets it first then tests it, then 5 years later, it is available to the public. Once available to the public many seniors or even MS patients will be better off.
Secondly, they need this to put it through its learning curve, this is always like a beta version, many years into it, we will see spin offs, better armor, better air conditioning, etc...
Sort of like Iron man, the first one was not the best, but the series of ones after it, became pretty cool, each for a specific job, no?
You are missing the point, it is time to kill the judges, the lawyers do not have the right to say whether a case goes through or not...they can just present an argument....in this case, it is the judge that forgot to take their medication.
The problem is the ignorance of user's, the lack of care by user's again, and the lack of care by M$.
If users were smarter about their browsing.....we would have less infection.
If user's chose to be less cheap and run legit copies of windows with full patches we would have less infection
If M$ was less cheap and offer all copies of windows legit or non, to be able to get patched, we would have less infection (this last one more then all 3 first mentioned put together)
If we had windows programmers be more thorough in coding such as linux programmers are, we would have less infection.
Multiple attack points to end this problem, yet no one seems to care enough...
The issue here is not just the fact that they make their own chips, but that there hardware can not come into contact with any other hardware that might be compromised, as it could propagate and therefor compromise their network....it takes only one computer with this hardware backdoor (even a router) that ends up on the network talking with other pcs, and then wow, like a virus ends up spreading this one has access root on a machine from behind a firewall...anything is now possible.
So how did they cross the water, did they know which boat to take, and when it would be waiting, or was it that part that was manual for the experiment?
I think this should be enabled by default on all friends, and then take time to configure it for those whom you do not want this to be on, I think would be the safest bet.
>Adobe Warns of Critical Flash Bug, Already Being Exploited Redundant, just a wee bit...no? If you have an exploit, it will be used, until it is patched. end of story, so patch the f*cker already and stop issuing (and wasting time and money) comments telling us you have exploits you will have to fix, and just fix them already.
Oh my, I had not even thought about how mixed up the communication process could become if we actually did time travel and had to explain to our old self that our new self (the present self) did not want to become like the new self (future self) being grossly overweight and therefor refrain myself (all the selves) from ever eating another chocolate bar again, past present or future.
So let's say for the sake of just going through this exercise without debunking the movie or photos, or whatever, and we all accept that this is real. We now know in the nearby future (as in the far future we will all be using devices smaller then cell phones to communicate), we will have been able to time travel.
1) we need to start setting up programs and international laws built to supervise and control who can time travel and to what purpose...
going back to get better grades grades so that you could get into harvard instead of a dumb college.....or to avoid that collision which took your legs, or
(fill in your case here) seems to me would cause unimaginable harm to the present time line, creating deviations upon deviations.
2) once a governing body is in place to secure time traveling as a whole....we need to start trying to set up a plan to figure out which disaster we can go
back and help avoid or improve upon....like the gulf BP oil spill, which can be avoided if we....do not let the fire happen on the platform, and set up
better security polices back then before the spill happened and nip it in the bud.
3) we also need to decide do we allow to go into our future, and thereby again creating special time paradoxes,
where someone brings back the formula for a new type of steel (1000 times cheaper and stronger then regular steel)
or do we block all future time travel all together.
I think we have seen a big lack of time traveling movies lately, because there is a sort of taboo now associated with it, maybe because the government wants us to not think about that possibility too much....and avoid pondering those cases altogether. They will push everything for getting space travel, let you build your own rocket in your backyard if you want...(billy bob) but so far, the last movie I saw where the time travel repercussions were visible was an old movie with edward burns where they touch something in the past, and contaminate the environment with a future microbe, which changes everything as they know it...
Anyways....funny if this were a joke, but everyone accepted it was real!
Does that mean now i can hook up an old serial port mouse to my iphone in case i want to get a better click event happening, or maybe the old serial port printers, they could be useful, do they at least still make cartridges for them though???
I just have one question, can we validate who did the polls, and how much of this is propaganda to help the US make their people feel comfortable with this kill switch ( of which would only affect the US within north america, as all other servers on the web elsewhere will still be operational.....if they follow international laws and guidelines)
I always thought a cool place to go was the casino, like las vegas, but owned and operated by goblins, neutral territory...where you can if good at what you do (cards...) you could really make some cash (almost same as in AH?) Anyways, they could add that to interest the older players...and also maybe tweak their AH for the web...so as not to make it too hard to do what you can from the GUI in WoW.
If only M$ could get their heads out of their asses, and at least try to come up with a better business model, their old one just does not work anymore...offer free upgrades to all using xp to change over to windows7, not only will the net be more secure, but then you can charge them afterwards for any updates at a better price then the failing shares would allow.
I am so conspiracy all the time, but this is a little too much, all of a sudden so many bunkers went down, alarms and all.....a bit too convenient. So not enough man power to add personnel for security watch at each station, i imagine they had people waiting at each silo, too see which would have extra security, and the ones that didn't got hit...that or someone over in china was playing the next gen wargames, and brought down all the silos at once using a fake systems diagnostics test, and now knows for next time what works to bring down those missile silos.....OR, (and this is the last one...promise) someone wanted to flex for the americans and show them just how insecure they really were, either russia, china, or ex militants knowing the systems, and decided a show of hands by shutting down for a few seconds all the systems at once....
Whatever it was, we definitely will see the movie coming out for it....my bet is it will be another die hard....
Not so, if they had someone post kiddie 0rn and then got a notice from the feds to take it down, they could not say they are not responsible for the post or info being supplied, they WOULD have to take it down, that goes for any website....which is why kiddie p0rn usually are on untraceable servers, and change frequently enough to avoid getting shut down....I imagine having a client that accesses those ever changing servers would mean you are being given that opportunity and whoever is responsible for that opportunity being given to you has to stop immediately.
I think in this way we are being circumvented our rights indirectly being that free speech and all can still be muted in one way or another....i guess they are running out of options, and are grasping at the last straws to bring a giant down....completely forgetting frostwire....lol , then again, frostwire will be enxt, until firewire, then so on, and so on, and so on.
Yay!...Finally some cyber spooks that actually are able to bypass what the hackers do when they are trying to regain control...hearing this gives me hope...either the cops got smart and hired ex hackers, and told them something about their cred being on the line as real hackers could avoid being Ddos...and then watched them bypass the botnet hackers attempts to regain control....what ever they did, they should keep doing it...and many more!
I had a heated debate once with a colleague, about how botnets operate, and he was under the impression they were all script kiddies with no morals, and just wanted to thrash all websites and infect everyone.... I tired to let him know, they were people (higher ups) with organization skills of real companies, with real business sense, using techniques to covertly avoid detection. I even heard of one botnet that would send out a few emails from each computer a minute, not more....to avoid sending up flags that 1 million emails in an hour would set off....and then there was that one that would cycle between computers in the botnet to send off mail, so that the ip address changed each time based on where the email was coming from....so you could get 300 emails all from diff. addresses not to send off a flag, so that one company with 300 employees would all get spammed.
These guys are nasty tacticians, and really only want the best way to stay in the game, even if it means uninstalling themselves for a few days, with a script that will send the computer back to a website with a payload to redownload and reinfect. This one no one believes, but I saw it....with my own eyes, and could not believe that 3 days later it was back, although it had not uninstalled itself because of me, it must have been a command from a CC.
Interestingly enough, this model you speak of, will only force governments to start enforcing more and more older or new policies amongst people, think of it like someone that has a pilot's license....they can fly a plane into a building, before 9-11, we would not have imagined people doing this, but it takes one to change things and improve policies, now not just anyone can fly planes, and trust me, the security checks to learn how to fly big airplanes are ridiculous now (whether effective is another matter, but at least the attempt is there).
So now we own a computer, or many computers, just like a car you have to learn how to drive one first , you don't just buy one, then get on a road and start trying to drive. Computers can be seen much the same way, just because you own one does not mean you know how to operate it properly....or completely.
I think we should enforce more policies at the ISP level to catch the botnets, and force infected people to not only treat their machines (cant get back on the net till they do)....but also educate them more on how things work.
Of course I actually believe in positive reinforcement too, so I may be way off on this one, but I think this type of botnet show of force, will only prove to governments they must step in more then they are now....and force ISPs to do more.
Is this built into the compilation time and then just left alone, or is this another security layer that is checked each time you run your programs, thereby making an extremely slow language even slower?
>After the success of Windows 7, everyone is very interested in the next iteration – Windows 8. >A few leaks have been the only source of news about Windows 8 till now
Wow, talk about creative marketing, as they see Apple doing this with great success, now they think that buy buying off a few bloggers and creating some advanced buzz, they might sell people on their crap. How about just coming out with a good working windows product for once. Windows 7 was supposed to be the way it was, nothing special about this...the fact that there are fewer bugs then vista doe snot impress me, this is the way it should be, and is usually with linux or mac.
As for being interested, they barely got 7 out the door, and people still do not want to upgrade, and they think there will be interest....I wonder how much this post is fetching money wise for starting a buzz where there isn't, I am not interested in 8, nor 7 for that matter, I am talking for myself, but know of many others that feel the same, after being so badly burned with vista.
Instead make sure that all 7 users are REALLY happy, I mean REALLY REALLY happy, then worry about moving forward to the next version.
