No matter how much motivation I might have to shhot someone, I am unlikely to do it because The last time I handled a firearm, I was wering army uniform. I am less likely to be shot becausel ess people around me have guns than I understand is the case in the USA.
I can't read what it says there. There is a huge advert on the screen suggesting that I click on it to close it. I do not click on popups!
I had to turn off my speakers as well. It would appear that this site has been put together at the design of someone who wants to keep informed users away from it...
In fact, if people thought that they were to be cut back, I could imagine the nearest to staff unrest you would get around here! Happily, I belive that we will be getting more & better equipment - all depending on when we have the money...
I would agree with you. There is a lot that the providers could do that would affect the culture.
Here in the UK, even the cheapest contracts(plans) provide more than enough texts for anyone but teenagers. I pay 10ukp or $20 a month and get 300 minutes and 300 texts. Some months, I may send over 30 texts. I think they are then charged at 5 pence (10c) for those who go over.
I have never heard of anyone here having to pay to receive them though.
Someone needs to ask for the extradition of your president and our prime minister for crimes against humanity - starting illegal wars, killing 10,000s of civilian non-combatants, detention without trial and lots more bad things.
Obviously they are not illegal in the USA or the UK because they say so, but there are lots of places where this sort of behaviour is against the rules. If such extraditions are not a good thing, perhaps someone should say why mass murder is less important than intellectual "property".
Which means that I hope that people shooting at me have M16s rather than those nasty heavy slugs that could do so much more damage to my favourite body parts!
I can's answer for the USA but in Europe, we have had Youth Sections of major political parties coming out with sensible ideas for years.
Then the old farts in the "grown up" sections deny that they would ever do such a wicked thing.
For example, we have all heard for years that banning certain recreational drugs should be dropped. Everybody knows that this would be a good thing. Then the 50something year old hypocrites put down their cigars and whisky and prevent it!
I was told that one reason that FP was so much faster than access was that the data was separate from the application - as opposed to Access lumping it in one ever growing file.
That wouldn't explain how it was faster than dBase though...
I don't know if that wad a fredian slip but I agree with it. All he people I can think of that take positive pride in not knowing something are male.
Females are mostly apologetic or, at most, untroubled at any lack of knowledge or.
I also would say that the less useful someone is as an actual member of the human race, the more likely they are to take pride in having to be told the same thing repeatedly...
of becoming a general to be able to receive and return salutes. To be put in charge of an accounts department, you really need to be able to count past ten without taking your shoes off. If you want to read the news on TV, you may find it beneficial to actually be able to speak.
I will never try and sell medical equipment because I do not understand all that it does. I will not buy hardware or software from someone who can't answer my questions because they don't know such technicalities as what a CPU or NAS is.
Why then, is it not taken as read that to run an IT department, you must have some knowledge anout IT?
I actually did this at work last week. Someone brought me a couple of CDRs to destroy (they had confidential data.
I was feeling a bit blue so I decided to cheer myself up with some pretty effects. 2 seconds does not set off the fire alarms but I agree about the smell!
I was under the impression that many of those who have been
marginalized and vilified
end up this way because they have drawn their "conclusions" in spite of the evidence and because of politics and/or finance. That is no way to conduct science and should always be treated in this way!
I searched on pictures of rabbits (no reason - a random word) and got pictures of little bunnies. Perhaps you were searching for something more adult...
As other people here were saying, perhaps you hit on a site(s) that MS had just had reported as a suspect site. Alternatively, perhaps MS had a fault on a server somewhere. That last one may seem like a long shot. I mean, everyone here can attest to their reliability!
Any surveillance operation needs computer experts. These "people" just need to find IT workers with low enough principles. Unfortunately money seems to make principles take a back seat.
Maybe we need an "Association of Principled Technologists". If we made it important enough, maybe it might encourage people away from the less wholesome facets of our trade.
A couple of decades ago, they were used by terrorists on occasion. The scumbags put bombs in them but I think at least one of them just needed a new door and a repaint.
The problem you face there is that, in the US, you don't seem to have "extreme left". I hear very little "middle left", or whatever it is called, on/.
There is plenty evidence of liberalism here. This is not left wing though. Liberalism is the open minded half-way house between the left and the right. Anything to the right of that is by definition right of centre.
If I hear a jewish comedian do this, I will laugh. There is no way I, or any non jewish person, should make a joke about it.
If a US citizen was to make a 9/11 joke, I would be very surprised. I don't think you guys have got the same depth of history as they have. It is 5 years since most of you noticed that there are some groups of nutcases that want to kill you. Jewish people have had this for many centuries.
Perhaps you do have comedians doing this. I've not heard any.

You may not want your government monitoring your privacy. They already do.
In the UK, I do not want companies invading my privacy and it is made difficult for them to do so.
Guns have little to do with motive

Fraid so. This PC is also used for Windoze games and Wine sucks.

We want more cameras where I work (a hospital).

In the UK,if a company goes titsup, I think directors can be disqualified if they areproved to be at fault.
Cold this happen on your side of the pond?
If this was the case, I could see MS using that as an unspoken threat, or even doing it to some of the worst golddiggers.
AK also weigh about 2x as those of a M16
Which means that I hope that people shooting at me have M16s rather than those nasty heavy slugs that could do so much more damage to my favourite body parts!

This a common practice amongst certain groups, including the pedantic, politically motivated and those who have been lectured at by Richard Stallman.
I call it Linux because nobody apart from IT enthusiasts would know what "GNU/Linux" is!

That bit of malware is installed on users machines without their knowledge of what it really means.
It may monitor what you are up to, We don't really know yet.
It may pop a message onto your computer suggesting that you go to a certain website and pay money to some questionable organisation.
A new version is reputed to disable your computer if you do not submit to its blackmail...
is it going to take me to fix a corrupt exchange database WHEN one of these goes corrupt?
The length of time it takes already makes it a toss up between restoring last nights backup and having things offline while it repairs itself...

You are obviously not familiar with this politician! She is both short and not most peoples idea of a pin up girl.
I do believe that she is fairly clever though.
A couple of decades ago, they were used by terrorists on occasion. The scumbags put bombs in them but I think at least one of them just needed a new door and a repaint.
Podshow do it all for free - if you don't count the little advert at the end. The site is bright and I think it is nicely laid out.
The Extreme Left and Extreme Right
The problem you face there is that, in the US, you don't seem to have "extreme left". I hear very little "middle left", or whatever it is called, on /.

Even jewish comedians make holocaust jokes
