To be fair, anything that you type into a search engine, ANY search engine, becomes their data, not yours. Much like your IP address, location, browser, OS, referrer, search terms, and other info become my data when you visit my website. Getting rid of it after any time is a courtesy.
People can and do have differing opinions. I'm not a fan of all things Google, I think that a lot of open source software (well, and just software in general) is garbage, and I generally like Microsoft.
There are some good DRM implementations. For example, I like my Zune Pass and I like Steam. I understand that their business models would not be possible without some sort of DRM. I'm fine with that.
"Just leave"? Hell, Bin Laden could sit in his cave in Pakistan and make prank calls all day, causing American airports to waste billions of dollars. He could even twitter the threats. No need to even go to the airport.
>This will likely be the next big thing that the folks at Microsoft will begin to discover, much to their horror.
I'm sure they've never heard of that before.
That said, I'm lobbying my boss to make all of our users "users". Some of them bitched about not being able to install things awhile back, so they were given administrator rights. That turned out well.
Browser security is great in theory, but the last two infections I cleaned up at work were from people downloading Flash_Update.exe and running it so they could watch some video from "Santa" that they got in their email.
Your advice is to learn how to use yet another installer that is used a by a handful of apps, instead of just using one that he's already familiar with. Then you baselessly attack MSI. A masterful trolling post if I ever saw one.
Actually, there were a good number of people who liked it and a good number that did not. You just happen to be listening to the voices that agree with your stance.
I don't even understand what you're looking for when you type just "Honda Civic". I mean, it's so generic as to be useless for finding anything other than honda.com and wiki page.
I flew on Hawaiian Airlines early last year, and there was a person with a bad nut allergy on-board. The flight attendants asked everyone to avoid opening any bags of nuts during the flight, as even the particles in the could have made him/her sick. Everyone seemed ok with it, and I didn't mind, since eating a few nuts seemed less important than someone not getting violently sick during a 5 hour flight.

You have stated your point well. Runaway needs to go back and read what your argument actually is.
Room temperature?! Everyone knows that patent infringement suits are a dish best served cold.

7 isn't particularly bloated.
DRM is a defect? That doesn't even make any sense.
No kidding. Firing someone based on this kind of "evidence" is just asking for a wrongful termination lawsuit.
The ruckus is that people like to raise a ruckus about nothing.
"Just leave"? Hell, Bin Laden could sit in his cave in Pakistan and make prank calls all day, causing American airports to waste billions of dollars. He could even twitter the threats. No need to even go to the airport.
>How can anyone think for one second that his tweet was serious ?
Maybe they got confused because his "joke" failed to be even the slightest bit funny.
I didn't get his joke at all. I mean...it wasn't even close to being funny.

lol...don't become a business analyst

"Writing the piece of shit" and bundling it with Windows was partly responsible for the rapid growth of the internet in the mid 90s to the early 00s.
That's no trouble. If they're that dumb, then I don't need their content.
This is why I use le Chrome.

Anecdotal evidence, whatever shall we do? Alas, the battle goes to WebCowboy this day.
Ah yes, citing "the industry". Always a reputable source.
