  • If you really want to push buttons, team up with a woman in your class, each of you wearing the exact same clothes, where those clothes are "traditionally female." You show up first, get the funny look and the "Oh, you're going to do this now?" - then your co-conspirator walks in and stands next to you.

  • Boasberg stopped short of holding any specific officials responsible for now. He said he would give the administration a chance to come into compliance with his earlier order — potentially by ensuring that the people in the Salvadoran prison will be able to ask a federal judge in the US to order their release.

    If not, Boasberg said he would identify the individuals to refer to the US Justice Department for possible criminal prosecution.

    While nothing will come of this, because DoJ will simply discard any such recommendation, this is an escalation. There's no way out but through, and the sooner we get to a proper uprising, the sooner this is all behind us.

  • 9x was not secure. User credentials were only used to load a user profile, but there was no functionality to deny access to anything, and you did not need to log on with credentials.

    NT and 2000 forward have been secure(r), with actual permissions (file/folder, registry, services, etc) applied to user accounts.

    Much of the crying about windows not being secure stems from people using admin-level accounts to do day-to-day things, and then getting tricked into clicking things they shouldn't. Microsoft kind of mitigated this with UAC prompts, but the everyday user is "annoyed" by those, so people figure out how to turn UAC off, or just blindly click through the warnings. Hell, remember when the first UAC prompts out of Vista were "so annoying" that Microsoft had to scale back their frequency, because people didn't like it?

    This particular security situation is not any of the above. It stems from an actual code exploit. Which, by my reading, has been fixed?

    Anyway - a vast majority of the "Windows is not secure" is a direct result of users running as root. Which you can do on any operating system.
