Comment support contracts required to get updates (Score 2) 102

Cisco requires you to pay for a support contract (yearly) to have access to the updates for a switch when they already charged 3x what it's worth to begin with.

I don't know how that's even legal when you have big security holes like this. The product is not fit for use, yet you have to pay even more $ to make it "safe" again.

Any given phone number *could* be registered with any number of providers. However, only 1 actually owns it at a time. If you want to spoof 1 number you do own when calling from another # you also own, that should require the 1st number being listed as an alternate (verified by them) with the 2nd provider. If the provider of the actual phone line has no evidence of you owning the # you're spoofing, it should simply be blocked.

By actively preventing Bernie from getting the democratic nomination they made a Trump victory much more likely. Tons of people voted "not Hillary" with their Trump vote.

I'm not saying there was no Russian collusion, but lets look at all the reasons.

That was the point I was replying to. Why would anyone think sending cops in guns drawn is the right move for a situation where no danger or distress is expected? I'm didn't say the cops shouldn't go. My intended implication is in regard to the extreme militarization our police forces have undergone.

Like it or not, that's not the way it works with our electoral voting system.

I voted for Bernie since the DNC stole the nomination from him. However, I did it in a state that was a practical guaranteed win for Hillary (which she did). Had I been worried that she had any chance of losing the state, I would have voted for her. I don't think I deserve any blame for what we ended up with from that choice.
