If EVER there was an event that is tailor-made for a terrorist/CBMS attack, it would be the Star Wars: The Force Awakens premiere....

I am somewhat surprised that there is more public chatter about the possibilities...

Granted, there is a lot of background chatter on it I have been hearing about the possibilities and preparations and such...

But the general public seems blissfully unaware of the potential...

Speaking of the movie itself..

Anyone going???

The real insult is that somebody, the PC vendor or Microsoft send me, unbidden, a diagnostic system that for a few days wouldn't load and crashed my system, and when it finally did load, it took my whole system down in a way that can't be fixed with a mere restore point reset...and I can't even attempt a diagnosis because those routines don't work anymore.

Accident or sabotage?

The learning curve is not nearly as bad from 7 to 10 as it was from XP to VISTA...

Microsoft has a well known curse...

Every other OS is garbage... Or, from a different perspective, every other OS is awesome...

Windows 98 was great (That rhymes and you know it!!!)

Windows ME blew chunks.

Windows XP was a staple...

Windows Vista was garbage...

Windows 7 was awesome...

Windows 8 sucked...

Of course, there is Windows 2000 in the mix which personally liked..

Once you get past the learning curve, I think you will like Windows 10...

I know when to fold, I ordered a $400 special online, it will be on my doorstep tomorrow.
Twice the benchmarks, Moore' Law, I hope to like W10. Maybe the old Presario will on XP, safely off internet, an old age home for legacy software. Microsoft could have handled this a LOT better....but they don't have to. Class action law suite? Sign me up.

What could possibly go wrong... :^/

Politicians are starting to realize that there are a lot of pro-marijuana voters out there, and that many of them are "single-issue" voters -- meaning it's really the only reason they go to the polls. When even a Republican-led Congress begins dismantling the War On Weed (one tiny chip at a time), then fundamental legal reform can't be too far off.

Does this mean the Left Wingery will give the GOP any credit?? :D

Heh. Reminds me of when I was in range of KFOG in San Fran. Every Friday, at 5pm, without fail, they'd play...
