That Windows license is useless for VMs. Technically the Windows license is tied to the hardware and can't be used on a VM, so you need to buy a Windows Pro version which ends up making it more expensive.

I'm a nerd. Ducks matter to me. This was the most interesting story on Slashdot today.
Or it's a sign that the previous poster made an "absurd absolute" argument and the speaker is being sarcastic by responding with another equally ridiculous argument.
Certainly. Please see the practice of Drs. Thighbone and Shinbone.
My family still uses the DVD service because:
1. Larger selection
2. Faster availability of new releases
3. Portability, no streaming when traveling
4. F**k Blu-Ray
MicroEMACS.
Don't get me wrong, I do some questionable things, too, that screw over others and the environment, but I recognize my hypocrisy and try to do something better. I certainly don't brag about it.
And this is why the human race is doomed. We know that something is bad if everyone does it, so in an attempt to stop it, make it illegal. We can't take it away if you already have it or make your own, because "freedom". But, hey, I got mine, so the rest of you can screw off. Besides, I "need" this device to maintain an image emulating the royal gardens and lawns of yore. Nice.
Good question. It made me curious so I checked it out. It's not a blogging platform but a micro-blogging platform. First thing I thought was, "So what?" Turns out they're using it as an alternative to bloated social websites that hoard your data. This micro-blog makes it easier to retain your own data, share it with others and easily move it to another service provider. Something like this might have the chance to do what Diaspora couldn't, namely, put ownership of the data with whom it belongs and make social media sites irrelevant.
Exactly. This post I saw on Lifehacker http://lifehacker.com/how-a-st... shows that making an absurdly high joke will help earn you a higher salary.
Totally agree with this post.
Also, if you really want to have an "adult conversation", present us with a technically sound solution. Stop using "dark room" and "shadow is spreading" analogies to paint an evil image of the current situation. Being "dark" is not bad, we *like* it that way because it's safer for the end user.
Hillary, by contrast, the Democrats will not vote to remove her even if she's performing daily human sacrifices to Cthulhu on the White House lawn.
I didn't know this was part of her platform. She's got my vote!
Seriously, the first time I saw Duff's Device I really thought it was a mistake. It's a do/while intermingled with a case statement. Look it up and be amazed.
