I had a music teacher who told us that when one of Pythagoras' disciples pointed out this discrepancy, Pythagoras threatened to kill him if he should ever reveal it to anyone else. Obvoisly hard to verify but a funny story nonethless!
I've gotten a certificate error for over a year with Bing on HTTPS. I always just assumed that they, somewhat surprisingly, just didn't support HTTPS yet.
I have to vigorously disagree. I used OpenOffice exclusively my entire college career and am an avid LibreOffice user now, however you are simply incorrect when you state that LibreOffice comes even close to MS Office. If you're going to say that LibreOffice smacks MS Office then I'm going to posit that you have never used a pivot table in Calc, and that you do not work in a corporate environment. In addition, for the 10 years that I have used Open/LibreOffice, I have not once had a problem opening any of the hundreds of .doc and .docx files sent to me via email.
