When all your in-house innovation leads to outhouse fabrication, you can easily switch gears. Buy everyone who innovates and shut out any possible competition. It's been the premier business road map for centuries.

I disagree. My good friends Gordon Ramsey and Simon Cowell say I am quite fun and an "all-around cheery bloke"

Not to be "overly critical of everything" but you just had two typos.

Neither happened. Perhaps this is the new way of the /. in which case I should use my robotic arm to shelve myself and permanently archive any dissension from something as important as "Sheldonbraut".

This show is:

• Not funny
• Not brainy
• Not relevant

It's like 9gag in full tilt, minus the images.

You can join Facebook with a fake identity, and in theory delete everything that was collected. You cannot delete the NSA, these logs, or anything else that the gov't has discovered about you. One day, your calls to the sex shop, your wife's best friend, and secret second family in Colorado will all be revealed via a freedom of information act. Better hope your wife doesn't post it on FB when she finds out.

I would argue that it was difficult to say but easy to prove.

I don't see your name anywhere. Were you even hired for this gig?

North Korea buys from China. Are you scared now?

One might also add that he hasn't delved into the patentable/copyrightable regions by being at alpha. No doubt if you came up with a fully functional suite that did things that MS or IBM patented, you wouldn't be in business very long.

As long as we can still manage servers while sitting at our desks, I say go for it.

So wait, they targeted a political organization, much like they might target a religious group, and the former was unacceptable but the latter isn't? It's not like they went after a specific race of Americans...

What is so evil that this needs to be on every news feed in the world?

Oh, you mean it's not freeware?

The problem is the trend of being cool because you can complain has left .
Can't find the start button? Yes it's damn annoying I agree, but New Coke sucked all around. Windows 8 isn't all about a single button. A keyboard you aren't used to will ruin your life much more miserably, but do you call Dell and tell them the computer should go in the garbage? It's time people got used to this mess. Yes as a hardcore 24 hours a day user it is definitely a mess and why we can't get to the shutdown or log off screen with a click is frustrating. You are not going to sell businesses on this model the way it is right now. But it is not going to make anyone go out and change their life. Let the insane and moaners do whatever makes them feel better. I will donate a leper to your cause.
