If comic books have taught me anything, it's that mutations resulting from long-term exposure to a powerful magnetic field can only lead to me becoming a costumed superhero. Worst case scenario, I end up a supervillian.
And some of us WANT to be warned when we're dealing with a cheap-ass website whose people don't have their shit together. To me, a website who has let their certificate expire or is too cheap to spend $10 a year to get a real certificate is not a website that I want to be doing business with in the first place.
My uncle Ray said all barns have skeletons. But then again, uncle Ray turned out to be a serial killer and the skeletons he was talking about aren't the same kind as the ones you're talking about. So, point taken.
Well, Ernest Borgnine says I only need to masturbate a lot to live a long time. And I believe him because he was in both "Escape from New York" *AND* "Baseketball."
Rosa Parks was preceded by a number of other bus riders who did the exact same thing but are forgotten (ever heard anyone talk about the great hero Claudette Colvin?). She would have been forgotten too if her supposedly spontaneous stand that day hadn't been carefully planned well in advance by the Montgomery chapter of the NAACP (where she worked).
Heroes are not just created by random acts of resistance, they're created by others willing to sell them as heroes.
If they had played these cards before the movie was in the can, Warner would have just shelved it. Now that it's in post-production, they know Warner will give them a cut of the pie instead of scrapping it.
Studios partner up all the time for releases. Warner isn't just going to shelve a big-budget movie. Worst case scenario, they'll just cut a revenue sharing deal with Fox.
Speaking as someone who uses some of the higher end features in Word, I can tell you that the last time I tried OpenOffice, it was a nightmare. It refused to recognize transparency in graphics (much less providing a tool for setting transparency), its text boxes were wonky, its graphic options were very limited compared to Word, and its drawing tools weren't even close to those that Word has. Those are just a few I can remember off the top of my head.
Why does Radio Shack always seem to discontinue everything they have that ISN'T complete crap? I was looking for a omnidirectional mic the other day there only to find they had discontinued their best model.
Okay, I'll grant you Apache and its modules. But everything that follows your "Then we have..." is not comparable. OpenOffice is fine if you never use any of MS Office's more powerful features. But the whole point of that price tag is that you HAVE those powerful features (and superior documentation) if you need them.

Because a great way to encourage potential investors in your country is to chastise people for being gullible enough to trust your country.

No, he trained his dog to howl at 2600 hz.

The hacker was in New Orleans. So they were obligated by official policy to ignore his calls.
I picture Steve Balmer reading this article, throwing his chair across the office, and screaming "RUB IT IN, WHY DON'T YOU, MOTHERFUCKERS!"
I'm a commissar, you insensitive clod!

The Chinese must be really serious about fighting graffiti in their country.
There is only one way to solve this. Everyone get into a pile and get gay!

You really shouldn't take the battlesnakes' names in vain.

I wouldn't exactly call Running With Scissors an "indie" developer.
You do now. Nice to meet you.
What about dogs and cats, living together? Mass hysteria?
At this point the burden of proof is on YOU, my friend. We're not the ones with a decade of bullshit promises that we've never delivered on.
I suspect that 3D Realms' investors aren't laughing.
Yeah, that won't be a lightening disaster waiting to happen.

It's like they're DETERMINED to suck.

Because academic texts 400 years ago were mostly written in Latin and modern students don't know Latin?
