Comment Re:Preinfected (Score 4, Informative) 252

It would help if the manufacturers would preinfect their software so we could stop worry about "if" we are infected and move towards just accepting it.

This is actually happening with phones now. just read some of the permissions of Facebook, Chrome, Firefox and a few others. They can take a photo or record audio without your permission.

And if you truly have the disorder or knew someone that truly has it, you wouldn't make that comment. I have it and so does my son. We are not rich and the medications we take for it are incredibly helpful. They work and we are able to get shit done without having the most trivial things distracting us.

Smart ones don't drown themselves in alcohol as it has more adverse effects over time than just forgetting what happened the night before. I prefer to watch a good movie at the theater, but haven't done that in ages. Not because I don't have the money either. However, IF I did have the money I would possibly fly near to or drive to a landmark of some sort to take in the scenery. Come to the Dallas area. The Blue Bonnets among other flowers are in full bloom right now and it's absolutely beautiful.

I upgraded my MacBook Pro from 4 to 8GB RAM and from a 500GB HDD to a 128SSD and it is like a new comp. It boots in 7seconds rather than 40 seconds. The SSD is what made it all the new.
I then built two desktops with the same SSD drive. All the same parts except one AMD and the other Intel. They are wicked fast because of SSD.
I used to tell folks that adding RAM would be their best speed upgrade, but now I tell them that an SSD is the best speed upgrade.

Except for the iranian part.

When Muzzies are concerned its a relief when they only want to hack your computer. More often they want to murder unbelievers

When Muzzies are concerned its a relief when they only want to hack your computer. More often they want to murder anyone who doesn't believe in their god.
