I'm Canadian, that grew up in parts of the country where the native tongue is Acadian - which is almost English mixed with French.
In order for me to get through university I had to have someone edit all my papers. Other then that my understanding of every topic allows me to take exams without studying.

You have it in reverse.
Officially it has not been declared as such commercially, whatever its going to be - it does not yet exist.
Also the proof is not out yet.
So by going on about Windows 9 when the product does not yet exist makes you... the one saying the sun never sets.
If I'm wrong, then I am wrong.
If you are wrong, you went on like an a**hole for no reason, what then?
The last time I checked if you had to resort to using insults to win an argument, you are out of valid facts to work off of.

FYI the above story is "longtime Chinese leaker Faikee"'s story which I am using to back up my story that threshold is not Windows 9.
You can't twist things to the way you want.

So what's happening is that, because Windows isn't making a Windows 9, China is.

The way China has been going on about Windows 8 and demanding source code, Windows 9 could be china's version.
|
|
|
|
|
Let's be really clear about why this foreign nation is demanding the Windows source code, shall we?
Europe and the rest of the world are actually glad that the Chinese are taking the lead on kicking the US's spying arse.

Weren't they demanding the source code before the NSA scandal?
I am under the impression China wants the source code so they can reverse engineer it.
|
|
|
|
|
If they wanted to reverse engineer it, they wouldn't want the source code.

Case 1) A Dog-Fighting ring took a female Pitbull out to a field (near a kennel) and started shooting her. The Kennel videotaped the incident and rescued the dog (who is actually quite friendly towards pretty much anyone, even cats/other dogs), and quickly got the ring (about 30 people) taken down.
Case 2) My mom's friend just found an injured kitten, and it seems that someone took a machete to it. I believe the police have been notified, and my mom is meeting her friend at a vet to try and save the kitten.
EDIT: Kitten was too badly injured to be saved.
I just want to [REDACTED] these.... demons from hell!

I agree there's no sense in hurting animals.

My wife and I do rescue/rehab work and I was a director of a humane society for a few years. some of the stories just make your blood run cold.
Our last rescue (who we're keeping) was a Black Lab pup who had parvovirus. The owners didn't want the expense/trouble of having her cured. Not so much mistreatment as cold-hearted.
The one before that (a Gordon Setter cross) had been shot in the head with a large airgun pellet. The vet we work with had been called to a pound to put her down, but she operated and removed the pellet. She's fully recovered!
The one before that was a young yellow Lab that had been kicked so hard by its owner so hard that the femur snapped at the ball. Our vet removed the ball and we rehabbed him, the femur forming a pseudo-joint allowing him full mobility.
We have seen much, much worse! I sometimes despair for our race.

Please accept a large bucket of respect points. Anyone who looks after animals as you do is alright in my book.
We had a 2-year old Dalmatian that got Parvo from a rock in the back yard that got moved when digging. The virus can survive several years in a dormant state apparently. My wife noticed she didn't want her breakfast and immediately rushed her to the vet who correctly diagnosed her and started her on heavy-duty treatment. The vet said only one in ten thousand dogs survive this - and those ten thousand were counted as the ones that got prompt treatment! I coughed up the necessary cash for intensive care and my wife practically lived at the vets for a few weeks talking to and cuddling our dog. She survived and the vet sent photos of her skin where the virus was evident to a local vet college for them to include in the textbooks. He also put up a photo of her in his surgery labelled "Parvo Survivor". She was very weak for a long time - she was so thin you could see the bones in her tail clearly - but she made a full recovery and lived to be more than 13 years old.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

How long ago? My understanding is that that survival when caught in time is now between ~80 and ~90%, although treatment is intensive (as in your Dal's case) and therefore expensive. The worst cases are when infected in the womb, when the heart may be attacked directly. We obviously only know a limited amount about this little one's history, but she was diagnosed around 8 weeks (the owners probably let her go places a young pup shouldn't!) At that age, everything is acute, but recovery is also speedy. She's around 4/5 months now and very healthy, lively and a pain in the behind (as Lab pups should be!)
I'm glad to hear your own story ended well!
Onwards and upwards!

My son has a pit bull / Shar Pei mix. Powerful dog, very tolerant, biggest problem is 70 lbs of muscle always wants to sit in your lap and cuddle.
Years ago, pit bulls were *the* family dog.

Windows Threshold and Windows 9 are two separate products.
Threshold which has been dubbed 9 while it never been officially called such is due to be the next update for Windows 8.
