They probably did.

MS moves so slowly that it likely took this long to move through the thousands of layers of bureaucracy.

Pipelight + wine + change UA string for netflix.com = runs netflix in Linux flawlessly.

Oddly enough, those installers that try to install crapware are windows only. Maybe the Mac installer tries it also.

It doesn't try it with Linux.

There is no knowing that your coworkers are not junkies and it says a lot about you that you think otherwise. A bigger question is why do you care?

As long as they do their work and work well with others there is no reason to fire them based on invading their privacy. You don't even need to test someone who is obviously out of control with their addiction. They can be spotted a mile away. There is no justification for it, other than to calm the misplaced fear of ignorant cowards like yourself.

It is getting harder to beat the tests but they are still beatable. 20 years ago it was trivial. When I was in the Army, I knew a coke-head who easily beat every test. Meanwhile, the mess hall had to stop serving poppy-seed muffins because lots of people were getting nailed for heroin use and the Army had to run more expensive tests to differentiate between them.

False-positives are still very common.

False-negatives are common as well. I have a prescription for a very long acting benzo(12-18 hours) that I take twice a day and I always test negative for it, even if I took it 3 hours earlier.

Taking comfort in flawed tests is sad.

You are obviously okay with working with alcoholics, which cause much more damage than pot-heads. You have your head twisted and are living in total ignorance.

When I am faced with 2 choices and both are varying level of evil, I always write in Beelzebub.

If evil is my only choice I choose to go all in.

Funny how the GOP claims they want to reduce federal control of states and they immediately turn into "big government" simply because they disagree with the will of the voters.

It is what makes the GOP so odious. They claim to want to remove the feds out of people's daily lives, but only if the people choose to live in a GOP-approved manner.

It is not possible for anyone to not break at least a few laws every week, unless they are a shut in.

So you are being selective in who you label as criminals.

Jobs that don't drug test are few and far between.

It is quite often accept the massive invasion of privacy or starve.

Don't forget meth.

Meth is a schedule II drug that has some medical uses, even over the counter in its Levorotary form.

Yup, the DEA has deemed pot to be more dangerous than meth.

At the very least, it might have some educational value.

Uploading it to a repository would be the best thing to do with it. What happens to the discs is of no consequence.

Upload them to some repository so they will always be available to anyone who wants it.

It doesn't crash every five minutes? That is a positive, right?

Why not take them to small claims court?

Odds are they will not show up and you will get a default judgment.

A class action will get their attention and multiple lawyers involved.

You can't stop them from calling.

Hanging up on them will suffice.

Besides, any person smart enough to not want Windows is going to know they don't get Windows support.

Dell still has to support the hardware. If the video card craps out, the OS is irrelevant. I have RMA'd laptops that had no Windows installed, despite the laptop being preloaded with that trash.
