  1. But it's expensive for small businesses. :(

  2. We can arrange that. --companies

    Nice try. :P

  4. Re:We stopped patching Win7 2+ yrs ago when EULA c on Windows 7 Will Get Updates for Four More Years -- If You Pay (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    So, your W7 machines have security holes now. Why not just change to something else like Linux that is supported?

  5. Dr. Who! :D

  6. Is THX even revelant these days? I noticed theaters aren't using them like the famous Chinese theater in HollyWEIRD. :/

  7. When will you be without /.? ;)

  8. Re:Light is important, yes... on The No. 1 Office Perk? Natural Light, According To Hundreds of Employees (hbr.org) · · Score: 1

    Ditto. Being comfortable, having privacy, flexibilities, no commutes, etc. I loved it when I worked from home as a contractor for Cisco.

  9. Re:I got banned a few weeks ago on Inside Twitter's Long, Slow Struggle To Police Bad Actors (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    Instagram and Facebook did this to me too in the past. I'm not going to give them any of my selfies, personal datas, etc. Frak 'em.

  10. Re:Makes perfect sense on Startups Ditching Silicon Valley For New Cities (economist.com) · · Score: 1

    I miss being young with my single and active friends. Now, we're all old farts with our own families, being too busy, having a hard time getting new jobs after being let go, more health issues (avoiding junk food like nachos), etc. Stupid life. :(

  11. I hate the ones in Outlook that change the links like: https://na01.safelinks.protect...... Argh.

    Ditto. I used to use 2K, 2002, and then 2007 for other people who no longer used them. I was still able to reactivate them too on new machines.

  17. I live in smoggy L.A and am missing my brain. :(

  18. Re:Waste of time on Videogame Developers Are Making It Harder To Stop Playing (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    For me as a video gamer since the early 80s, it was work and WoW. Both drained my life. I rarely play computer games even when unemployed. I think I got burned out. :/

  19. Re:And re-invented over and over again ... on IRC Turns 30 (www.oulu.fi) · · Score: 1

    IRC is fast and not bloated. Slack and others are so bloated and slow. I'm old school. :(

  20. Re:Fuck you, Comcast. on Comcast/Charter Lobby Asks FTC To Preempt State Broadband Regulations (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Same with Charter! Argh!

  21. Just like everywhere else in the world. :P

  22. Re:I'm Reminded of an Ancient Saying on New Research Suggests Evolution Might Favor 'Survival of the Laziest' (phys.org) · · Score: 1

  23. Where do I apply? :P

  24. Re:A key to success... on You Spend More Than 5 Hours Each Week Checking Your Email (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Cisco wanted people to use its Spark instead of e-mails for online communications.

  25. Which Steve? :P
