One of Apple's big talking points is that Macs don't get viruses and that they're relatively safe when compared to Windows PCs. I'm sure no one bad will get their hands on them

At what point can we agree that advertiser behavior has become sufficiently malicious to justify going on the offensive instead of just blocking? I want something that instead of just hiding ads will cache the last N (100? 1000?) and use 1 or 2 percent of my upstream to continuously redownload them in the background looking like a cross between a DDoS and the site owner they're from committing click-fraud.
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?

A daily pint reduces risk of a heart attack and angina by a third, a big data study of Brit adults has found, while total abstinence increases the risk by 24 per cent. Drink up before the next study comes out

Um, it's not a big secret that alcohol reduces both blood pressure and blood-sugar levels, not to mention its effect on saturated fats.
Nor is it a secret that high blood-pressure and high blood-sugar levels (not to mention saturated fats in the bloodstream) are the biggest causes of many of the worst nasty-yucky-horrible health problems.
Was it really necessary to spend money on "research" to reach such obvious conclusions?
Or does this "research" coincide with figures that show that the UK has taxed alcohol so ridiculously and punitively high that people are drinking less, and therefore handing over less tax extortion money?

Time keeps moving forward, and the point in early 2038 when 32-bit time_t values can no longer represent times correctly is now less than 21 years away. So kids born today will get to fix it?
I'm hoping that link will work, even though it's a sub-only site. Seems to work for me, anyway.

I was telling people about this in 1998 and what I said back then was this is going to be a much bigger problem than the year 2000 issue was.
Thankfully, Visual C++ has dealt with this for a while now. I believe the 2008 version has a 64-bit time_t value and I know the 2010 version does.

Yup, I remember this too. Turns out people have to learn the hard way, and apparently this time around they'll have to learn it twice.

At least that was real, and you got paid for fixing a real problem.
Invoices I handed in for Y2K "fixes" were like plumbers' or car mechanics' invoices.
It's not like I needed the money; I just found it hilarious that people were willing to pay me so much over the odds for doing virtually nothing. If any of them had asked for the money back, I'd have given it to them and shaken their hands.

Will it take down the internet? If so, I'd class this as a much needed good-news story! 
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.
