جيد, not really kill, just bring down. But it makes the title sound nice.
In other news, Microsoft has finally done something right by bringing down Rustock, a botnet that infected millions of computers and caused them to send massive amounts of spam. Rustock was one of the (if not the) biggest spam networks in the world.
مايكروسوفت (and some feds) raided some hosting facilities in the US and took down the servers that instructed infected computers to send spam.

كالعادة, I got bored so I wrote a game in JavaScript. It’s a role-playing game called Labyrinth (you can find it here) which follows a guy who gets lost in a cave. You have to collect sticks to destroy barrels, planks to cross water, keys for colored doors, and more.

The neatest thing about the calculator is that it has some built-in functions (anything from finding a number’s square root to finding the LCM of two numbers to finding the solutions to a quadratic equation.)
Here are some commands you can enter into the calculator and what they do:
والدي فقط تحميل ملف مضغوط من الإنترنت (غير متأكد ما كان عليه, أعتقد المثبت أو شيء.) ولكن هذا خارج عن الموضوع, الشيء المهم هو أنها في حاجة الى فك الضغط عن الملف حتى يتمكنوا من الوصول إلى الملفات داخل. تنزيلها برنامج لضغط الملفات, الذي يتيح لك بفك الملفات.
جميع من جيد, حق? المشكلة الوحيدة هي أنه يكلف الكثير. $30, في الواقع. لا يبدو مثل الكثير, ولكن كقاعدة عامة من الإبهام مع البرنامج:
إذا كنت انسحبت بطاقة الائتمان الخاصة بك الى تحميل شيء, ربما كنت لم تدفع أكثر من اللازم.
