you know what pairs well with drones? shotguns.
I'd rather not have delivery drones armed with shotguns for self-defense.

because if they all end up with 15 year sentences, people might start asking why we're such a sensitive target thats so dangerous to attack. it might draw more attention to our business practices and confidential information. our own employees might become sympathetic, nay, might start 'leaking' information on how we skirt banking regulations and use our market dominance to arbitrarily freeze funds or hold 30% of transactions for 90 days, or how we refuse to pay bug bounties and lock out entire countries without explanation.
so if we could just stop over-reacting to this silly hacktivism and just go about our business that would be swell.
Yeah, and I might be a Chinese jet pilot...
Steve Wozniak. He would be one of the few that could turn Microsoft around and back into a tech company that changes the world in a good way.
Sadly, MSFT board members are not interested in that.
I seriously doubt that the Woz would even be remotely interested...
On the other hand, doing what your boss asks of you, even when it's wasting your time in a useless meeting, is your job!
If the meetings prevent you from doing the useful part of your job, tell your boss. If not, sit there quietly, you're paid to take a break.
The pay's the same no matter what I do.
- pour shot of tequila
- sprinkle dash of salt on back of hand
- hold slice of lime in fingers
- pick up shot with right hand while throwing salt over shoulder and simultaneously squeezing lime in left eye
- While pain in eye has you distracted, toss insect in mouth and chase with tequila.
Bah, it's even easier. Just inhale deeply at the wrong time. Happened to me twice this month already.
Did the lawyer represent the bed bugs, or the hotel owner?
The bed bugs, obviously. Bloodsuckers have to watch out for each other, you know?
And it would give someone's location whenever asked.
But only when asked. How many times were they looking for the person in question only to have the computer answer: "He is not on the ship. He left 3 hours ago." So the computer knew, *but didn't tell anyone!*
This is priceless libertarian pro-corporate agita
How about saving people from the endless screaming via ads about having to use whatever new chemicals that will make us shiny, youthful and lovable? People are bombarded with advertising crap every day, sometimes all day non-stop. It is absolutely essential to push back on the worst of their getting rich through innovative chemistry schemes. Corporations do not have a right to propagandize (and even force) us into using their products in the absence of skepticism.
If I was dictator-for-life I'd ban advertisements for drug companies, lawyers, and politicians. Punishable by putting their heads on pikes.

I have to drive 2 hours to get pork from a family farm. A normal grocery store is less than 10 minutes away.
Then get a freezer and then buy a half or whole hog. One 2 hour trip to the farm once or twice a year is worth it if you want to be certain of what is in your meat.
Sounds like it would be a perfect replacement for the real thing.
Kill it with fire, and cremate the body so it can't come back.
Who or what is Snookie?
That is something best left unanswered. Count yourself fortunate that you do not know.
Seriously, when one has to Google on another computer for instructions on how to bring up the damn (well hidden) address bar in the browser, you know your "intuitive" design is bad, bad, bad. Luckily I already knew about the (equally well hidden) active corners of the screen to bring up the Start screen, Desktop and Charm bar,so I did manage to get around, sort of..

What the hell is it with Microsoft's obsession with hiding stuff? Every damn release of a new Windows I have to un-hide more and more things that I want to see, such as file extensions, full file paths, and all directories.
I know! Let's just hide everything!! That would be SO much simpler to use...
My dad was an asshole. I'm an asshole. My kid is an asshole.
Of course—assholes are like opinions: everybody's got one.
And they're all full of shit.
No it doesn't, but focusing on the past president without even mentioning the current is a irresponsible.
Perhaps, but bear in mind that without Bush43 enacting those shitty policies Obama would not be able to continue them now. Credit must be given where credit is due.
