Sometimes, large companies amaze me.
Take Adobe for instance. They announced a while back that they are going to embrace the cloud. I wasn't sure if I should run out to the nearest billboard company and put up a sign showing my dislike, or just wait a bit and see if I found it more funny than stupid.
Today, I have reached that decision.
It's stupid and funny, similar to a lot of other things that Adobe does. Take for instance, Adobe Flash Player. I will admit, I'm not getting invaded by weekly updates from them anymore, they must have figured out how to secure their software better, but I still get the same stupid questions after the installation.
Maybe it's me (I'm thinking not), but, why would I let Adobe do an automatic install of a product that is buggy and unsecure as rotten footbridge? Next question is, why do I have to keep telling this (insert expletive of your choice here) software the same thing I told it last time? It isn't like they are going to wear me down as far as my security is concerned, so they should just GTFU (I'll let you figure that one out).
At this point, I'm rating Adobe right there with some of the people that were miraculously granted a drivers license. I say miraculously because if you ever watch them drive it's absolutely astounding how they ever survive. Take for instance some of the things that I find just plain wierd:
People that put their turn signal on after they're in the turn lane.
I still haven't come up with any logical conclusion why people feel the need to advertise the fact that they have joined the Captain Obvious League.
People who drive Chrysler Products (In General)
Sorry to those of you that aren't complete nitwits (I know you're out there) but let's look at facts (mine anyway). I see people every day that are driving a Chrysler Product and are totally clueless of anything/everything that is going on around them. If I see a lot of traffic in one lane and it is being held up by one vehicle, that vehicle will typically be a Chrysler Product. What the heck is going on here? Is Chrysler pumping exhaust gases into the passenger compartment making people this moronic? Let's face it, Chrysler isn't the car company it used to be. They make a sub standard product, copy European/British Car manufacturers (who doesn't these days?), and sell it so cheap that people who can't afford much, are almost locked into buying one because they want a new car.
(I could do a cell phone/driver rant, but I'll leave that for another day.)
