Mrs. Guido hacking Guido's AOS posting.

Posted by: Guido at June 25, 2013 05:10 PM (8I9hB)

5 I don't think they need to pay anyone. Based upon the number of threats my anti-virus finds there seems to already be a pretty healthy industry there.

Posted by: CA Token at June 25, 2013 05:11 PM (FTX13)

6 Eh, maybe they should concentrate on eliminating the suckitude in the damn thing. Everybody I've talked to hates Win8 with a white-hot hate -- maybe that's a problem, hm?

Posted by: Senator Cthulhu (D-Mountains of Madness) at June 25, 2013 05:11 PM (vh67+)

7 Oh, and that's my first, first, ever!

Posted by: CA Token at June 25, 2013 05:12 PM (FTX13)

8 Probably very cost effective.

Dang, he's back... I'm out.

Mrs. Guido

Posted by: Guido at June 25, 2013 05:13 PM (8I9hB)

14 I'd like to hack it...with a fucking chain saw.

15 Wait, the Missus was going to tell us about Guido!

24 I have to believe that Windows 8 is very secure as even hackers would through their laptops at the wall in frustration

27 At work they just migrated us to Win 7. Couldn't find our files, all favorites gone, etc. Pretty cranky workplace for about a week.

I guess I'd be better off donated plasma for cash.

29 Hack Windows 8? Get it drunk and spill wine on its dress.

Posted by: eman at June 25, 2013 05:16 PM (AO9UG)

30 How soon before Microsoft starts trying to do an ad campaign like they did with vista. "Check out our next new operating system. Awesome isn't it? Psych! It's really vista." I think they tried that for about three months before announcing windows 7.

Posted by: Buzzion at June 25, 2013 05:16 PM (QDr8G)

31 Hack it? Slice it with an effin' hammer, that's how you hack it.

33 Wait, are they trying to tell us that Windows 8 wasn't itself the result of malicious hacking???

38 It's pretty sad when a company can't hire IT people to hack their own systems that they trust. Something about this does not smell right. MS is going to pay off Chinese and Russia hackers???

Posted by: Billy Bob, pseudo intellectal at June 25, 2013 05:18 PM (wR+pz)

39 Hacking into Windows 8 will be of only limited utility, because soon we won't have the electricity to run Server farms that support the internet, or even to power up your PC whenever you need to. And this will lick the problem of the rising oceans, and the world will begin to heal.

Posted by: Reader C.J. Burch writes more nonsense...... at June 25, 2013 05:18 PM (9bMee)

40 The wife just got one of those new Windows tablets for work, of course it's got Win8, but she seems to like it. Funny thing though, the same day she got an I pad, also for work. I think her employer is a little worried about the tablet.

41 I heard that this one guy hypnotized Windows 8 with a spinning mirror and got it to think it was a chicken laying an egg.

60 I don't mind Windows 7, but Windows 8?

Tack your PC OS to a tablet OS. The tablet crowd already has it's OS. The preexisting Windows base can't figure out how to turn their PC's off.

Now every corporate IT department has to spend millions of unforeseen dollars to teach the incompetent morons at every stage of their organizations to DO THE STUFF THEY ALREADY KNEW HOW TO DO!

I wish I could be smart like Steve Ballmer. There's ton's of evidence he's smart, right?

OT One of the funniest things I saw was when my oldest stepson taught my son how to escape the crib/pack'n'play by folding a pillow in half and using it as a step stool of sorts to give him enough height to swing a leg over the top. Whole process took about 15 minutes. Grab beer. Sit down. Watch escape attempt. Grab another beer.

absolutely...

see you can't fight hard because our political class and judges and law enforcement contacts don't put English on the ball for us...

I'm not calling him out or "me got big crank" I have a lot less potentially to lose than he does..

everyone has the point they draw back from leaping...

justy sad we refuse to get as ruthless as the left and we're gonna lose everything we fought for for 35 years in probably the next 5...

It's an awesome idea and I'm proud of everyone doing it, but won't be doing it myself. I figure I'm already pushing my luck by refusing to fill out the "community survey" that some federal dept keeps insisting the law requires I fill out.

149 Cheri, Good for you. Did you tell her you were mailing them to Congresscritters? I fully respect if Ace doesn't want to have a fish post, but I think it's clear nobody is mailing threats or even thinking about them and maybe my middle aged brain is not working well but I don't understand how sardines in a can could be construed as a threat especially with a note. By that token, anything one sent to Congresspeople could be considered. Smelly cheese? Were you suggesting the Congressman should be sliced? Foot odor spray? We're you suggesting the Congressman should "take a walk."?!! I'm not going to send them things weekly, but I'm not going to cower in fear because something might be interpreted as a threat. I don't make threats and I'm not a violent person.

If you have openly gay military, you've removed one of the possible avenues of compromise a foreign power could use against someone to turn them.

DADT was the worst of both worlds because it encouraged gays in, while opening them to being turned using threat of exposure.
