Seriously?
At a previous job, they only decided in 2008 to start deploying Windows XP instead of skipping it and going for the next release. They were still running Windows 2000 Pro until then as it had proven to be very stable. As windows Vista turned out to be such a disaster on release they still stuck with Windows 2000 Pro and see what the next release would bring. But Windows7 still was not able to convince to be a stable version so they went for XP SP3 for its overal stability.
My current employer is still using Windows XP and by the looks of it will still be using it next year.
What load of crap!
Windows 3.0 failed but following windows 3.11 was a success,
Windows 95 failed but Windows 98 was a success,
Windows ME failed Windows 2000 turned out to be a widely used OS,
Windows XP started out failing for the most part but after 3 Service packs is still an OS that is widely used in business (already 10yrs in use),
Windows Vista failed but Windows 7 looks promising but still lacks stability (This is why business stick with XP),
Windows 8 might well be the version that will be used to be stabilized as a general replacement for XP.
Microsoft really doesn't miss a cycle, they rather abaddon one more quickly.
Both Vista and 7 are missed opportunities for microsoft.
If you are very sure about getting the position you indeed can set a salary that you would like
to change for. But if you don't have that option, people tend to get something in between and ending
up on the lower end of the range.
But if you have the luxury to ask what you want, you go for it.
If they would have been able to detect any of our radio signals and figure out there is an 'intelligent' life form behind it, they would :
1) Consider our species to be very primitive, any interference would go against the 1st directive.
2) Having Bush as president, they would most likely will pass us with wide angle. Would you like
to get invaded by monkeys?
3) Why would they be interested in a planet that has been poluted beyond repair, where all natural
resources are getting depleted and which will turn inhabitable in a few centuries.
Be honest, if you are a worker for a chinese company, you can consider it a prison camp.
Having seen some incredible television docu's on working conditions in China, I think a prison camp is a correct description.
So before we start an arms race in space ourselves, do you think we should consider that the chinese are looking at a more effecient way of moving old satellites away from earths orbit.
Did they indeed destroy the satellite or used this 'kinetic vehicle' to push it out of orbit and have it float away into space.
The problem is that their debris can cause an interruption of operation of our sattelites, worse case, they could seriously cause damage to property where the debris hits earth if it didn't get burned in the atmosfere or what didn't float off into space.
What mess can enter our atmosphere?
Has the Chinese Gov. ever considered other countries for anything they have done?
All they have done up till now is what is good for them, not taking into account what consequences those actions have on either foreign countries or for their own population.
From the article it really sounds like he was totally pissed with that Sean.
Not paying back a loan out because he was going at it with his wife.
Drugging his wife and having all kind of weird and funky sex.
Sounds more like a desperate man to make such accusations, even if true.
What is the direct evidence against him?
Trust me, One of my friends from college, as he explained me, lost his drivers license due to speeding for a period of a month, they fired him for this exact reason. They claimed if he is not
able to drive to work he can not attend work.
If you have returning financial problems, your employers might go think something else is wrong, if it only happened once or with some bad luck a second time, future employers wouldn't go to far into it. These things can happen to everyone.
It should be, everyone can own a weapon, but can not bear arms all the time.
Only when that person or persons undergo a change to combattant activity in case of emergency where there is a threat to public safety.
If the text would be applied more strictly, nobody in the US would have the right to bear arms when the above condition is not met. But they would be able to own arms so then can be called when an emergency would arise.
When after Huricane Katarina hit southern US, they would have been in an emergency where there was a legit threat to public safety and people would have been able to form regulated militia to protect the public safety.
And even if they would end up without electricity, they do have really huge generators which they can keep going for a prolonged time and usually, energy providers can supply gigantic generators just in case. But what is worse, is that the datacenter will stay up, but will the network stay up from outside the datacenter.
Honestly, doing such a deep backupground check is a violation of privacy.
All the information that can come up on someone is not always related or of importance
for that background check.
When someone is hired you would start with checking the references and maybe companies the
employee has worked with. If there is any indication that someone is not completely trustworthy for
such a position it will immediately turn up.
Although different per country, I would be very offended if such things as credit reports are checked. There are numerous people that have at some point done something that would end up on record, speeding, parking fines, maybe even financial problems at some moment in time. But this information should not be available to any investigating firm or person since it doesn't explain how someone got it. If it would serve a purpose, at least such a background check should be limited in time, for about a maximum of 2 years back but not go as far as 5 to 10 years.
The claim is that his motivation was not receiving the huge bonus he expected.
I really have a lot of doubts that would be the motivation.
So, if a service is provided outside India, they still need to pay taxes?
Well, they would need to make everything illegal from mmorpgs to internet shopping.
Communism, never. Very simple in a communist society, 92% is owned by the Government and 6% is owned by the upper class of that regime and about 2% by its people.
In a Socialistic society, The poor pay for the benefits of the poor, the wealthy just don't receive what they pay for but again, their wealth pays for the better things the poor can't have in services.
The biggest difference here is that between lower and middle class incomes you hardly would notice a difference in wealth or income. Where the upperclass continue to make more money.
What "clean energy"?
It doesn't exist, you should talk about less poluting energy, all the material needed
to eventually create cleaner energy still generates tons of polution.
Yeah, really to bad they weren't able to pass German as the official language when they had the chance.
Can you see the analogy? Yawol mein herr, said bush:)))))
====
Your Dutch nationality may be revoked. This can happen even as long as 12 years after you obtained Dutch nationality.

This only applies when commit a criminal offence.
They can't just revoke it for no reason.
We have flemish woman living in the Netherlands for 30 years and now she wants to become dutch and
although flemish and dutch are pretty similar languages, she needs to do exams for the dutch government to prove she can speak and handle the dutch language.
What are they thinking of next over there?
A goverment that works? Depends which of all the goverments we have you mean.
I only see only goverment work right now and that is the flemish government.
The federal government is a joke! The Walloon Government is a Joke!
Once going to the more southern part of Belgium, the walloon region, you will see
that even democratic countries were some governments work, there is still way too much
possibilities for politicians to get corrupted, especially like the PS where they have been
in power for way too long.

Excellent! Indeed I have no knowledge at all about orbital mechanics, and this was very informative.

Do you mean the US have no nuclear weapons?

Sorry has nothing to do with me
How predictable, they really have a good thing going with China then.
