If the United States Federal Government was so horrible, the American people wouldn't let it get away with the shit it gets away with. Does that statement make ANY sense to you?

Have you ever developed for DirectX?

Limitations? That very statement cries that you have never touched the terminal. OS X, on the surface, is designed to work and work flawlessly - even if it means saving the user from themselves. However, if you want to make it your bitch, like any UNIX-like OS, break out the terminal. Nothing within OS X itself can…

How dare you even consider Windows as "competition" to OS X. Windows is truly in a class of its own...the class that was typically driven to school in the short bus. You'd be far more accurate in considering OS X and Linux/BSD to be in competition with one another - at least that's a fair fight. :p

LMAO ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? Windows uses an old DOS-inspired command line. Even so, it's the weakest command line I've ever seen, despite years of experience with UNIX/Linux/BSD and other DOS descendants. Even FreeDOS has improved and boasts a more powerful command line.

There's always Cygwin :p

I originally viewed this post to pick out individual issues to refute. However, after reading over it, there's nothing in the article I can even give the slightest of credibility to.

LOL you must be eating your words now, given the value of a single Bitcoin. xD

Your ignorance is quite silly. According to the ignorance you have shared with us, I pity you as it must be nearly impossible to understand poetry or philosophical text or speech of any kind whatsoever, as you would blindly dissect it into utter balderdash rather than seeking the kernel of truth found within.

Quite true. The problem is that we live in a society that rarely focuses on such truths. Instead, society loves to point out everyone else's flaws and mistakes, as opposed to embracing growth.

The only tried and true "diet" or "weight loss plan" that is guaranteed to work is to learn to love yourself as you are and discover that you deserve to look, feel, and perform at the absolute best level possible. Eat healthy foods and find ones you love. The super "secret" key to losing weight: get up and move!

The simplest of solutions: mind your own business and don't give a f@ck who or what your friends/family are attracted to and don't try to set them up with someone. Avoid these things, and you'll live a very happy and relatively drama-free life.

It's hilarious how long it takes lawmakers to catch up with technology. I mean, I can understand being behind a couple years, but I've been ripping DVDs for nearly a decade now. That's plenty of time to fix the laws.

At least you use AVG. That means I can save my "McAffee and Norton suck" rant for someone else. :p

Here in the states, they still seem to have no clue on what they think is legal and illegal. From my experience, unless the copyright holder explicitly forbids it, such as in a EULA, it's all good. However, if a DVD or Blu-ray include any type of copy-protection, it's technically illegal to bypass such protection…

Good point. Like @mwatson2 said, I got tired of fighting with it so I snagged a cracked installer.

Makes sense. I figured that was the case. Like I said, I didn't know if it'd be helpful for anyone else to know or not. Then again, I'm sure there's still folks out there who will re-install XP before downgrading to 7 or 8 :p

Hey, from a technical standpoint, it is perfectly legal for you to download a copy of anything, from music to movies to software. The real question is if you have already paid for it. So seeing as you had a legit license, who cares? lol

Lol, love it. I actually have a Google alert set up to email me the moment my cell number, SSN, or driver's license number are found in Google's index. To date, they don't exist anywhere. And, seeing as only the numbers are in the alert, Google doesn't actually know which one is which, though I'm sure they could care…

As the others said. Although, I'd like to point out as well, Google is the last place the government is gonna go to get your mobile number. They can get it much quicker and more easily by going to your provider. I could care less if they have my number. I'm sure they've listened to my conversations before. Then again,…
