Same way Google does it I suppose. A list of single-use codes that you keep offline, and you can verify from the same device that you initiate the purchase from...in theory. It seems like the U.S., as a society, wants to completely eliminate every sort of risk in the world. What we should really be concentrating on is mitigating them to an acceptable level.
Actually CVV values are located in the track data which only proves you either have a copy of the card or the original. The second "fix" was CVV2 values which are printed on the back of the cards. This was to prove the card is in the hands of the person, but if that number has been comprised (which is darn easy) then all bets are off.
AMEX uses a 4 digit value printed on the front of the card.
In a few years once somebody figures out how to implement a 5 digit value on the back of a card, our worries will be over!
Any bets on whether the public will ever see a single byte of this data?
I'm guessing that if the information were to ever get out, terrorists would somehow use it to their advantage. Give me a few more pints and I'll work out a rationalization.
ownCloud does a pretty good job of it. Granted I'm one of those fortunate United Statsians that has a 50/5 connection, but a homemade microserver combined with docker and a slew of other applications hasn't let me down yet.
So...as an American can we borrow a few of your ideas? Of course we'll have to repackage them in red, white, and blue so that our more jingoistic (read: Southern) citizens can stomach the idea. I'd happily trade the "free" market for subsidized education and healthcare, and at this point will even more gladly trade our system of crony capitalism for anything else. Even bronie capitalism.
have seen no compelling reason to part with my money
This is pretty much why Linux has never broken through on the desktop. Who wants to develop for a system that people like you use? I've got a mortgage to pay and I'd prefer not to starve to death. I'd rather develop on Windows and get paid actual money than develop for ungrateful Marxist pricks like you on Linux.
Enjoy your lentil soup.
4/10 for effort, 1/10 for content. Sorry, but I expect far better trolling.
Hell, most of my servers spend so much time in their boot process initializing RAID controllers, mem testing, etc. that the performance gain with systemd vs init is really not going to make that much of a difference. Add to that the fact that most of us have servers whose uptimes are measured in years, boot performance is pretty much the last thing I give a damn about.
And Comcast et al. are completely within their rights to throttle you for the same reasons. Just because it's legal doesn't make it ethically right or any less abusive towards their power users.
Most Custiomer service calls says they are recording the conversation for training purpose (Surprise! talk on the phone now needs training), So when they do so It is usually implied that you can. In any case, the point is not to use the recording to sue them (so in case it may not be legally obtained) but to release it to public to drive their PR to the ground.
It's their customer service that's driving their PR to the ground, the recorded calls are just a vehicle for that.
Here's a novel idea...let's get the downloaders the mental help that they obviously need and save the torches and pitchforks for the ones that are taking the photos/videos.
I love going out with my climate scientist friends! We hit the town at about 9:00, pop open the Dom Perignon and hit the clubs. We usually roll up in a stretch Hummer while they scream out the window "We're climatoligists, bitches!" At the strip club they'll usually make it precipitate with hundred dollar bills, much to the enjoyment of the strippers. After a few well-meaning puns (let me show you my hockey stick graph), we'll head back to the champagne room for cocaine and asthma inhalers. These scientists are rolling in so much money, fame, and 'tang that it's not surprising that 97% of them are so out of it that they reach a consensus on climate change.

This may actually be the stupidest thing I've ever seen on ./. So kudos, to you.

It may not be perfect but it seems a bit better than the honor system that we're on now.

I'm looking to relocate to Denver in the next several months...please tell me that Comcast being their ISP was your idea of a terrible, terrible joke.
Holy be Regan, peace be upon Him.
Something about man proving that black is white and getting himself killed at the next zebra crossing?

If you can get onto the testing group for Google's domains, you can set up an alias for any domain you have with them pointing to your Gmail account.
Settlers of Catan for gatherings of 4-6. The only issue is when alcohol gets involved, the games can become marathon sessions.
That's like asking what's the best food to have in your fridge. What is the best color is along the same lines...
Bacon and green. Next!

Thank god for not saying "could care less".
In the original context, "I know not, and could care less".

My theory is that Steve Balmer is bored in his retirement and feels the need to troll open source sites.

What year did Earth: Final Conflict come out?
also you won't get shot dead if you text during the preview.
Unless the original poster lives in Florida...
Methinks New Zealand is going to get much more crowded over the next few years.
Forgetting is not a legitimate defence, much like torturers say, you would say that wouldn't you?
So basically marriage is a good preparation for criminal defense.
