"Worse than that, they are praising this steaming pile of bug-ridden code, while making hilarious gags about how far behind Microsoft is. What these odious little punks are forgetting is that no one - and I mean NO ONE - in the real world cares about browsers. Most of them don't know which one they use and just eight percent of the people interviewed in Times Square by Google earlier this year could explain what a browser actually did." http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/43102/141/ |

Jul 02, 2009 - 11:01 AM - by RootbeaR |
"Ever since e-commerce began there have been stories of mispriced items -- and following that, stories of the mad rush to buy the mispriced product (especially when it involves misplaced decimals, shrinking the price by orders of magnitude). In the US, at least, it's quite clear that such a mispricing need not be honored by the retailer, though public pressure often leads the retailer to offer something to those who tried to buy, just for the sake of PR. Given that, it's quite surprising to see Taiwan regulators tell Dell that it needs to honor the 140,000 monitors that were sold for about $15 each when they really were supposed to be $150." http://techdirt.com/articles/20090701/1821405427.shtml |

Jul 05, 2009 - 8:52 AM - by lotuseclat79 | Pirate Party Coming To Canada. The party's goals are fairly simple. People should have the right to share and copy music, movies and virtually any material, as long as it is for personal use, not for profit. It opposes government and corporate monitoring of Internet activities, unless as part of a criminal investigation. It also wants to phase out patents.

"I wanted to let you know that WindowsSecrets.com was unavailable on July 3 and the early part of July 4. A serious electrical fire shut down the Web hosting company in Seattle that we and hundreds of other sites rely on.
Thanks!

Jul 02, 2009 - 5:44 PM - by RootbeaR |
"The Lori Drew verdict finding her guilty of computer hacking because she may have broken MySpace's terms of service (without even having read them) was a classic example of prosecutors trying to stretch the law to punish someone who did something they didn't like, but which wasn't against the law. The implications of the ruling were quite troubling, in that they could turn almost anyone into a criminal if prosecutors wanted to charge them as such." http://techdirt.com/articles/20090702/1232585439.shtml |
