I think you missed his point. Those people giving poor reviews already bought the product, probably bought the $40 add-on because they were already partway through the process, and most likely will purchase it again next year. If that's true for more than half the user base, Intuit comes out ahead.
We're lucky in NZ to have the Auckland Savings Bank http://www.asb.co.nz which provides a sweet little facility for auto-coding your personal expenditure. It takes all of five minutes to set up and it's free of charge which is always pleasant.
It craps out a nice pie graph showing that 70% of my after-tax income is spent on rent. Ahh, Auckland...
No. I didn't come here pretending I had useful information in the first place.
Why so butt-hurt? Perhaps you really do think yourself above everyone else here? Clearly I was too reasonable in dealing with you. What a waste of time, I should have used ad hominen - looking at your posts that seems to be all you can comprehend.
Here you go, this citation makes me better than you, in your estimation: Fucking retard.
Don't trouble yourself with 'my estimation', cunt, because you know nothing about me. Sort out your reading comprehension skills and tell me where I said I was better, you fucking arsehole.
Useless, oxygen-thieving fucktard, go die in a fire you worthless cunt. There, that should be simple enough for you to grasp. Incompetent morons like you are what is killing slashdot, hope you're proud of yourself defending the casual bullshit of vitriolic anonymous fuckwits.
he's not really an anonymous blow-hard or just nooise
He's still just a blow-hard and noise, because it required you - a different person - to provide the citation he should have included in the first place.
There are plenty of people on Slashdot who like to bray "No, you're wrong, and you're stupid too," as if being told off by an AC ever mattered to anyone. Note that I didn't state an opinion on the matter one way or another, because I need to research first. You can snipe at me and try to annoy me but it's still not going to change my mind, I'm simply never going to accept a post like the GP's at face value without wanting details. Sorry if that bothers you.
You however...
OK, so I'm a blow-hard and a bunch of noise because I asked for a citation? Or is it because I have little patience for 'facts' tossed off by random Internet posters who expect me to accept their opinion as gospel truth?
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to read your linked article and educate myself on the topic, thank you for the link.
When your toaster costs 20 dollars, how long can it take to take it apart, find the fault and put it together again, before it becomes a huge waste of time?
Precisely. The ideal solution to this issue is innovation; I've personally found the best approach is a small investment in Helium gas tanks.
With the combined application of a large inflatable balloon and the He gas I find that - given time - most of my electrical appliance issues simply float away to become somebody else's problem (SEP field generator courtesy of Douglas Adams).
I don't see why you should have to say this. If humans had not evolved to be heterosexual, the species would not exist. How could anyone be offended by this truth?
A fair comment and I'd wager that my friends who fit within the LGBTt umbrella probably wouldn't bat an eyelid.
However, in this enlightened age of political correctness and sensitivity (oh, and punitive moderation) I thought it wise to clarify.
Now wait a minute. I thought BMW had hardpoints on the side of their vehicles, and a special jack that fit those hardpoints, specifically to make it easier to jack up.
That's certainly been my own experience, at least for models from '98 onwards.
Never had a problem changing a flat with the provided gear, unless you count being honked at by passing motorists for being so inconsiderate as to have a BMW with a flat tyre.
You are talking about BMW. Inventors or the 'secret decoder ring' bolts/wrenches.
I don't know anything about secret decoder ring stuff from BMW but this only means I have more to learn because this sounds very true to form according to my own limited experience.
My '04 745i sports a sealed unit for each headlight/parklight/indicator cluster. A failed bulb results in a NZD$3K+ replacement cost (plus labour if, like myself, you fear accidentally de-lugging the bumper and the dozen other things between the bumper and the headlight cluster).
Why yes, they did see me coming, thank you for asking!
BZZT! Wrong answer, but thanks for playing! It's a cartoon/drawing of an anthropomorphic female from a comic/game/fantasy setting.
I beg your pardon, you are quite correct.
And for the record, we haven't 'evolved' to fuck human females, that's just how it's happened more often than not due to species dominance or relationships or that it was the 'only game in town'. Evolution hasn't stopped human males from fucking anything (like sheep or even other human males) that stands still long enough for him to try.
I didn't say that; appreciating is rather far removed from the act of fucking females.
However, whilst we're on the topic of fucking, males have most certainly evolved physically and psychologically to fuck females*. Are you really saying that they have not? Unless I misunderstand you, this may be difficult to argue given the preponderance of evidence to be found throughout the natural world.
* No offence intended to LGBTt people, I'm just simplifying and generalising in this case
Remote root access is allowed by default on at least some distros.
So take that up with the maintainers of the (braindead) distros you didn't mention and get something done about it. Your complaint has nothing whatsoever to do with the OpenSSH software itself.
refusing to use words like 'know', 'tries' etc when discussing programs outright, rather than keeping in mind that they can be potentially misleading abstractions, seems like throwing the baby out with the bath water.
Indeed. If the alternative to the 'most unclean' anthropomorphisation is strict enumeration then naturally tries becomes tests for, knows becomes stores.
Voilà! We now have a schoolyard argument over semantics. What did that gain us exactly?

It's really sad to see such a formerly solid software brand swirling the toilet like this.
As in all things, Greed Kills. :(

The phrase "Damn you autocorrect" springs to mind.

Great link, thanks. Lots of context to help the non-French among us understand Charlie Hebdo.
I'd love to see the equivalent here in New Zealand but it would never fly in our nation of piss-weak, politically-correct softcocks.
What needs to happen is that stupid people like you need to grow up and stop insulting an entire group of people and their religion
People who behave as these terrorists do or support their appalling actions deserve all the ridicule, mocking and insults they get.
Charlie Hebdo themselves are responsible for provoking this tragedy.
No, they are not.
it is this kind of vile thinking that has led the world to where we are today.
YOU are the problem, you and people who feel as you do. Grow a spine and grow the fuck up, you goddamned cowardly motherfucker.
Stalk and ac post harass others that got the best of you http://slashdot.org/comments.p... ??

That's a nice word salad you have there.
Thanks, was really interesting to see how fantastical-seeming (and authentic-seeming) findings can give way to rather more mundane explanations.
Hindi is one of the most bastardized languages that I know of.
After English. :)
It is just a matter of time before we superpower the shit out of your lazy American nerds
Hey, no fair! I'm not an American nerd, it's just discrimination if I miss out on getting my shit superpowered out by you!
Do you really need it spelled out to you?
