underrated utterance

unfortunately not on the list

Smashing record after record!

Keep it up

you sir, just won this discussion XD

Chinese officials justify the choice of not using U.S made parts because they "pose a serious risk to national security". Another official added "Who knows what kind of backdoors or spyware they coded into those parts. We just can't be sure"

And we say China is bad because of that...

For instance, it is probably the only form of protest that could work on internet based companies.

Not that you'd be able to, anyway. Trying to ddos google would be funny; it's basically their business model

IMHO the ddos should be considered on it's impact, say, ddos a hospital, people got hurt because of that, then it would be a form of assault? In his case, if it meant that robbers or terrorists got away, then that (??) I am evidently not a lawyer, so I might be completely off here

I suppose they are indirectly ruining his life? Seems like this decision is meant as a strong deterrent to anyone who might think of pulling off a ddos attack.

Tell me again why would I need this?

Surely I am not aware of every vulnerability Linux has, but isn't the community faster in patching the bugs than writing some dongle thing to protect you from them?

Or are there known unpatchable vulnerabilities in unices that I am not aware of?

I see what you did there

It's oil, coal, bitumen, natural gas, petroleum, this kind of stuff. And that we burn it.

Stop trying to get people sidetracked.

It's oil, (and maybe coal) and related petrochemical processes, and cars and transatlantic shipping and that kind of stuff.

STOP TRYING TO MAKE US LOOSE FOCUS

yes, totally not sponsored by oil companies.

Woods are on fire because planet got too hot and too dry and we indirectly caused it and there is no increase in criminal activity in the area, maybe there is even less and this is just a consequence of global warming we didn't anticipate
