Ah. So we are not only redefining "socialist", but also "abortion" and possibly "QED" (though I am willing to allow ignorance as a defense for the last one.)

Unacceptable. If they (and software/hardware professionals in general) really want the moniker "computer engineer" they need to be able to identify, test, and remove permission escalation bugs like this. I do not expect, nor do I believe it is reasonable to expect, totally bug free design. However, I do not believe it is unreasonable to expect defects of this scale be found and eliminated prior to release. In exactly the same way we expect our planes to not fall from the sky.

Broken drives are easy. Oxy-acetylene torch. I know of no data storage medium that can survive temperatures in excess of 3600 K.

Lets be honest. Global thermonuclear war would improve the conditions for NK's citizens. I mean, quality of life in the NK is an alarmingly low bar.
Amazing. Why, I imagine it is only a matter of time before we have an automated roboticist.
Good luck with that. Do you have any idea how hard it is to buy something as simple as a bolt that isn't made in China?

And this is web 2.0, everybody knows that you don't need Q/A. You just fix it on the fly.
I solved that problem years ago: don't use integers.
I believe we can forgive Anonymous Coward for being a little dense.

Perhaps not in so many words, but this is the basis of much of their support.
