This is a good idea for the Wii. This platform is not supposed to be for hardcore gamers and the focus is more on the general public. Take myself as an example: I play the Wii but unlike my kids I don't have time to repeat a game sequence hundreds of times until I get it right. If I get stuck somewhere in a game I don't waste my time and I move on (read I drop this particlar game). I'm looking forward to be able to skip a frustrating part and get on with the rest of the game. I am not playing to get frustrated
He should have softened them up first with a base level social engineering attack something like:
I completely disagree with you.
My first point is that you shouldn't lie to do something that you are perfectly allowed to do. You don't have to, you don't want to be that kind of person and you don't want to contribute to create a society where lying is better than not.
My second point is that by lying you are putting yourself in a position of wrongdoing. Now that you are lying, there is a case to be made that you are acting in bad faith. Your original intention when you were taking the pictures will then rightfully be questioned.
I think that you are not putting your efforts where it matters.
What is important is that the critical services run properly on each server. Sure that can be affected by patching but also by many other factors. So don't focus solely on the patching, focus instead on making sure all the services are running properly.
You should have your own scripts that check that each server is responding as required. Make your test suite as strong as you can and improve it each time a new problem crops up that wasn't caught by your spying tools.
Once you have this in place, you can safely do daily automatic updates and stop second guessing the package maintainers. You will have a more reliable system and you will save yourself a lot of work too over the years.
Oh, what a clever sig!
Considering that this piece of news is over a year old, I wouldn't worry too much if I were you.
I shouldn't be notified that my windows may explode unexpectedly?
It's common knowledge. That's why most of us use Linux!
Natives in Canada are treated by far better over the course of our nation's history than they have ever been treated in the US.
You know that's a really bad point to make. Natives in Canada have been treated horribly throughout our history. Just because someone else might have done worst than us doesn't mean we should be proud of ourselves!
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
