As Jadooti says below. A requirement for Dynamics definitely puts it kind of out of comparison with WordPress et al

?! Then why do they call it Adxstudio Portals for Microsoft Dynamics CRM, and have Quote: Supercharge Microsoft Dynamics CRM into a web-based sales, services, support & social engagement application platform
on that page? If it doesn't need CRM, they're doing a pi... poor job at marketing it.
Either way, at $595/month (or $10K/org), it would pay for a lot of WordPress/Joomla/whatnot customization.

hmmm. It wasn't that way when I was using it a few years ago. Hmmm, I take it back.

Wow, I've seem big headers on web pages before but that's gone beyond a joke. Even on my Portrait mode, 1080x1920 monitor I have to scroll a whole darn screen to begin reading the article, all because some ejit thought I'd like to see part of a blue elephant (I suspect its cropped - can't be bothered to move it to another monitor to check) and a tiny picture of the author.
Truly awful design.

They're channeling (possibly using, can't check from work) Bootstrap[^]; a web framework designed by scroll wheel vendors, RSI doctors, and metered internet providers to boost their revenue levels by requiring enormous amounts of scrolling to find any content.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Using, no - just checked myself. Channeling, definitely.
That header graphic + Title text takes up exactly one full-screen maximized browser's worth of real estate on a 1920x1080 monitor.

It takes up one full screen on any monitor. At home it does on both my 2560x1600 and 1200x1600 screens; the latter just gets a heavily width cropped version. I didn't look closely enough to see if I was getting a ~1500px tall image, or if a smaller one was being stretched.
Giant screens of graphical crap with only a few words of text are the standard bootstrap blight, which was why I suspected it was committing the same crime. Bootstrap's like powerpoint only without the ability to quickly and easily jump cleanly between slides.

To be fair to bootstrap, everything we've been discussing here is really the bootstrap "Hero Unit" component. I've used bootstrap on a half dozen internal web sites now, and have not once used the Hero Unit. I do like the navbar, tables, and tab containers, though.

Windows 9, often referred to as Threshold, isn’t too far away. There is talk of a beta late this year, and of a release in the first half of 2015, though those estimates I would hold as at least mildly optimistic. "Adios, au revoir, auf wiedersehen. Good Night!"
...and a sincere apology to anyone who actually gets that, as I'm sure you won't be getting it out of your head anytime soon.

We was really lucky with our customers on this one - we was able to convince them to stay with Windows 7. So we closed all our Windows 8 virtual machines we used to test and went foe an ice-cream

Speaking at Defcon, the notorious security expert lambastes what he sees as Google's destruction of privacy. Because we all want to simplify a set of fractions?

I think most of have know what's been going on for a long time.
A similar thing happened with the Walmart ideology;
Walmart moves in and destroys the communities economic structure making everyone poor so the only place they can afford to shop is Walmart.
Walmart gets richer and the community gets poorer.
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.
