Well, what do you expect when you use hardcoded credentials?

Well, the antarctic plate wasn't always where it is today. Ever heard of plate tectonics? In short: After breaking from Gondwana (southern part of Pangea), the antarctic plate moved south and developed a much colder climate. So no, just because there were trees once doesn't mean that there is no global warming, it means that there are other reasons why there were trees in Antarctica.

I work in a sheltered workshop in germany where we disassemble and sort no longer used computers. Most are workstations from companies, some are servers (think mostly 10+ year old CPUs etc., the newest I've seen was Ryzen 3 2200G). Normally we sort them into different categories (see approximate prices here), but inbetween there is something that can be sold as a used part, for example some weeks ago we found 1TB of 64GB-DDR4-ECC-RAM, which we sold in an auction. Now our workers aren't paid regular wages, but our workshop is part of the participation in working life program for disabled people who aren't able to work in the "first job market", but want to work nontheless (it is not forced work).

At least here in germany libraries can only lend out as many copies of an e-book at a time as they have purchased licenses because of DRM and publisher's influence. I don't know if that is different in the US.

Everybody hurds.

Not true. In the months from january to may 2013 germany actually exportet 30,79 billion kWhs. Source in german: http://www.iwr.de/news.php?id=...

Just a small correction. It's Atomausstieg. Ie is a prolonged i. Ei is similar to the english "I" as in "I am ".

Provinzial (a german insurance company) has all their desktops with their custom software running under Ubuntu.

In some form maybe. But the young people will keep on using other services and just have facebook if they want to contact their parents/grandparents. Because you can`t really not accept a friend request from your parents or grandparents and once you do they can see all those lovely private updates from your friends about the last party and how you hooked up with that boy/girl or how you tried pot for the first time or...

That would be stupid, because when used to describe a mood "sauer" means angry, not sad.

Yeah, I can linkspam too http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2113410/US-soldier-kills-16-Afghan-civilians-deadly-shooting-rampage.html http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/us-soldier-describes-thrill-kill-innocent-civilians-afghanistan/story?id=11732681 http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/20/us/20soldiers.html?_r=0 You know, if I were in that position, I would do whatever it takes to kill the bastards that invaded and possibly killed members of my family just for being in the wrong location at the wrong time (see collateral murder). And no, you are not protecting some fancy idea of freedom or some other bullshit, you are thugs, criminals, the scum of the world. The world would be better off if your country was nuked from orbit and every piece of it destroyed.

Considering that Apple signed a declaration of intent in 2009 (together with Nokia, RIM, Samsung and others) to use micro USB connectors from 2010 onward (at least in the EU), I'd wager that they won't stick to what they signed for a long time to come. No, what they actually did was releasing an adapter which let you use every other manufacturer's charger to charge an iphone.
