" get used to fighting with settings to turn it all off"
Yeah, we call that "Locking down the OS" and I don't want to be on the team that will have to do that here. No, this Gov Shop is full of seasoned techs that would love to see everything go Linux and open office...no profits, just upgrading costs. Saving the day ? We can't even get enough people to look at Politician's Platforms in an intelligent manner pre-voting, how the hell are you going to get that many people to look at their processes in task manager once in a while, or understand they're being lead astray into 1984 with this ?
Windows ME was awesome. (if you bothered to update the bios) Our calls dropped by almost 50% at the MS Callcenter I worked at in the day. Between restore points and registry backups that didn't make it into Win2000, it srayed on my home PC's until XP SP1 R23 since the first SP's were the pits.
They've been trying to get us back onto Terminals for two decades, looks like they might win this time. If the public buys into a service versus a product, we can wave the white flag on any privacy we had left, and censorship will be just another feature down the road (everyone forgot about the AOL browser I guess).
The rest of us will continue on linux and have 10/8/7 on secondaries to support our Clients, but hell if we don't crap on it at every turn for being a Trojan Horse OS.
" that do not exist in nature and inserted them into a living organism"
GMO's aren't the problem, how we use them is.....now this ? There's a reason to believe in the complexity of Evolution's tests and trials. When we start mucking around with building blocks like this let's hope we remember that we don't really know how this lego set will act once it's built up....really interesting though I must admit.
(GMOs belongs in Labs and Cures, not in crops or Livestock)
Yes let's all go to the Magic Cloud ! Where security is a marshmallow and your rights are blueberry fuzz ! The NSA would love you to go, and so would the providers that will charge you peanuts until the ransom demands....
Hey, Keep it local, keep it safe, and if you must have outside access layer the heck out of it, but never, ever gives the keys to the kingdom to anyone else.....
Everyone is rushing to put all their eggs in the same basket. Somewhere saving money on infrastructure thwarted common sense.
That "something" might have been Nothing. Attributing that event or non event to God or any God is just nonsensical and part of your upbringing only. The "Magic Man done it" approach is not an answer, it's a cop out. It has no basis in reality. Everything could just have been here all along....
The Big Bang and the instant inflation could be a cycle of events that we cannot understand via our short lifespans...
There are more interesting creation myths on the shelves anyways.. http://www.desy.de/gna/interpedia/greek_myth/creation.html
"In the beginning there was only chaos. Then out of the void appeared Erebus, the unknowable place where death dwells, and Night. All else was empty, silent, endless, darkness. Then somehow Love was born bringing a start of order. From Love came Light and Day. Once there was Light and Day, Gaea, the earth appeared."
They'll need to rip out all of the Supernatural parts of the Bible one day and focus on the message of Peace, Tolerance and respect, or be doomed to the same fate as many other Religions of the Past.......Remember, Zeus was a Party God !
The day we find Alien Trash and technology buried deep, I'll consider it. Until then, weirdos choosing to believe X Y and Z can calm their T*tts, life's tough enough without it.
"So... stop it and go back to writing songs...." NOOOooooooo!!
Actually, let him continue playing Technologist... Let's face it, as long as they are involved with people like him, it'll mean less hours of combing through code for those who are fighting the fascism inherent in the system (pun implied)
Windows 7 and WinXP until M$ gets their act together... They may play on my Director's fears, so we have to apply everything M$ pushes out for our Networks, but at home and for most of my peers, we've been running XPSP2 for so long now that going to Win8 is like asking to be sat in a pool of sh*t.
Then again, I'll be nearing three decades in the biz soon so it might be a good time to start putting my Linux boxes up ahead of Windows.

Most of our PC's have auto update off and we choose what third party software to run when we discover 0 day bugs (that we usually solve on our own). This whole phone line to the mothership approach to OS's has to stop, but it won't with that cloud over our heads. It's almost time for me to retire and go fix PC's and servers in my spare time, since I can see the coming storm...

Agreed, even Super SKYPE Cortana Smartphone.
Cheers.

Oh well then, I guess I can cancel the move to Iceland then, Thanks.

Hatred is a strong Word but Religion has held us back long enough no ?
The TRUTH NEVER PLEASES EVERYONE.....
Consensus produces palatable lies for general consumption, not truth.
What I want to know is where are all the Natives Protesting this Church that states that /facepalm
the Red Man was White but they angered God....
The day we find Alien Trash and technology buried deep, I'll consider it.
Until then, weirdos choosing to believe X Y and Z can calm their T*tts, life's tough enough without it.

Thanks for saving me the time to express what SHOULD be common knowledge but, as we know, isn't for some strange reason.
Go ahead and lose it, they're human too and some are really not in the right profession...Josef Mengele was a Doctor....
Because they still use the technology that the patent(s) refer to.....
Since when are they Chinese ?!

That's just plain insane....Period.
Most people abuse what they don't understand....
Then there are bad batches of HDD's you get stuck with as well.
I still have old PC's with fully working HDD's that have been treated with respect (never overheated).
I don't expect the same from the PC's at work though, server rack or PC.
Cheers !
Nice try...
And French isn't gibberish even though my keyboard trashed the first word.
