  1. Re:OK but... on IE10 Will Have 'Do Not Track' On By Default · · Score: 1

    yes, ignored by Microsoft first and foremost, because as a general rule, when you have their operating system installed they are tracking you. It would be better if they automatically had DO NOT FUCK MY COMPUTER BECAUSE I ACCIDENTALLY OPENED THIS BROWSER turned on by default, that would be awesome...

  2. I don't think so... on Inventor of the TV Remote Control Dies · · Score: 1

    I don't think so, Nikola Tesla has been dead for 69 years.

  3. Re:Generating meeting requests? on Microsoft Wins US Import Ban On Motorola's Android Devices · · Score: 1, Insightful

    What if the androids can Generate Meeting Request From Their ASSES! The same place Microsoft is pulling these patent ideas from not to mention the idiots that make these feeble rulings.

  4. Well then... on Apache OpenOffice Releases Version 3.4 · · Score: 1

    Well then, the 10 people still using OpenOffice will be able to update... I mean, LibreOffice is faster and their template site works. Plus it does not have that Oracle logo...

    Don't worry that they are trying to trim your pubic hair with a weed-wacker - as long as they are only touching pubes your fine!!!

    Dave Bowman: Hello, HAL. Do you read me, HAL?
    HAL: Affirmative, Dave. I read you.
    Dave Bowman: Open the pod bay doors, HAL.
    HAL: I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.
    Dave Bowman: What's the problem?
    HAL: I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.
    Dave Bowman: What are you talking about, HAL?
    HAL: This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.
    Dave Bowman: I don't know what you're talking about, HAL.
    HAL: I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen.
    Dave Bowman: [feigning ignorance] Where the hell did you get that idea, HAL?
    HAL: Dave, although you took very thorough precautions in the pod against my hearing you, I could see your lips move.
    Dave Bowman: Alright, HAL. I'll go in through the emergency airlock.
    HAL: Without your space helmet, Dave? You're going to find that rather difficult.
    Dave Bowman: HAL, I won't argue with you anymore! Open the doors!
    HAL: Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.

  9. Re:WMC not included? on The Three Flavors of Windows 8 · · Score: 1

    Will this be the beginning of the end of WMC?

    Why no, the beginning of the end of WMC is when you use WMC - at that point you realize why the 'Work or Spoon' site ever existed...
    XBMC is so much better and ... free. Plus it can be used on almost any platform...

  10. Well at least... on Dental X-Rays Linked To Common Brain Tumor · · Score: 2

  12. In all cases such as these... on Ann Arbor Schools Want $45M For Tech, Partly For Computers To Run Google Docs · · Score: 1

    In all cases such as these, look to the people in charge... either a powerful teacher/board member/it lead/administrator has it in their head that these purchases are necessary and have gathered hoards behind their cause. Wether or not they do need them is not necessarily an issue, it is the IDEA that they need them that counts in these minds. Politics is everywhere. Also, someone should alert Redmond, as there is a school district using other than Microsoft Produkts with which to compute.

    Indeed, while not foolproof to those intent on getting in, the individuals you say you want to keep out should be kept out. Easy to add or remove Macs in most modern accesspoints & routers.

    Or what's an "Operating System"... do I need one? Is Internet Explorer our ISP? I can't make documents because I don't have MS Word...
    It NEVER gets better. You get the odd person who while not a techie takes your advice and follows all of your suggestions - but they are just decoys to bash your hopes of an intelligent user base in the head until a green stuff that looks like guacamole comes out...

    I don't want much, just LEARN to use the tool you have spent hundreds, if not thousands in some cases, to purchase and is "NEEDED" for your business... one wonders if they require others to fill their gas tanks; to wipe them; how do they still walk erect?

    So M$ is patenting being a dick? Well, they do have Balmer to prove their program theory works...

  24. The real winner... on Linux Mint: the New Ubuntu? · · Score: 5, Informative

    The real winner of course is Debian. Being a devout debiate for many years (12), both the distros you speak of use debian as it's base. I use Mint myself for my desktops, it works well and their kde version was always better than kubuntu. I have even softened on my Gnome-hate somewhat with Mint's Main version and have even setup clients and friends with it.
