Out of interest, which countries? The only place I've had that is in Switzerland (Geneva airport accepted euro, with a rubbish exchange rate) and The French Pyranese where a lot of peopleb going skiing has Spanish pasetas.
I'm going to jump to conclusions and say that they were probably counties whose own currencies were slightly unstable.
Better than referring to it as "making love" as the media seem to like doing at the moment. I think it's so they don't have to use the word sex - probably thinking of the children. The Daily Fail is particularly keen on referring to lions and tigers making love.
So, in the three seconds between when the employee started running and when they started falling down the stairs, it's the employer's obligation to make sure they're not running?
The only way to make sure that that doesn't happen is to have RFID tags monitoring the speed of people and a PA system that automatically announces "Employee #314159 - stop running".
It doesn't matter, as they're the ones coming up with the description, not the website owners. In fact, for colour blind people it adds an extra layer of security as the image they perceive (and describe) may be completely different from how the majority would perceive it.
The user describes each inkblot with a text phrase. These phrases are then stored in a random order along with the password. When the user returns to the site and signs in with the password, the inkblots are displayed again along with the list of descriptive phrases; the user then matches each phrase with the appropriate inkblot.”
You name the images, so as you've proved, it's a lot harder for somebody to break into your account as these descriptions are completely subjective. The big problem may be remembering which descriptions were which - as it may depend on the mood or state of mind you were in at the time.
They won't even think that way. So the average user won't do that. Period. Full stop.
Well, in my experience, *normal* users do use them (nurses, managers and sales staff included), because if it's explained to them in a sensible manner then they will understand it. I don't use the word algorithm with them, I just used it here as I *hoped* that the average/. user had a clue.
I suppose it comes down to the ability to explain what you want users to do. As my thermodynamics tutor once said - "if you can't explain it, you don't understand it". Sorry, but your inability to teach password security to *normal* users is a reflection upon yourself, not the user.
I have a single password (8 mixed case alphanumeric characters) that I use as the base password. I then use a very simple algorithm (if you can call it that) that adds [certain] letters from the website's domain to the beginning and end of the base password. That way I have a different password for every site, but only have to remember a single password.
I've suggested it to quite a few people, and most of those people say they now use a method like that. Of course, it always comes with a warning not to use something like "password" as your base password - UK reg numbers aren't bad.
I also use KeePass for saving our company's passwords (as well as a printed copy in the safe), but that's more in case I get run over by a bus.
It's possible to simply accelerate directly away from an object and never reach speeds anywhere close to escape velocity, until you are far enough away that you have simply exceeded (that now much lower) escape velocity threshold.
You may not need to get to surface escape velocity, but if you were to do that, wouldn't your delta-V expenditure be higher in the long run?
Quite frankly, if a friend of mine posted a beheading video on facebook I'd report it, just before I de-friend them. Then again, it won't happen as the my "friends" on facebook are actually friends who I see and socialse with. I don't think facebook should ban them, but allow users to police it, because most people will.
Then again, I'd be tempted report a photo of my sister breastfeeding, not because it's obscene, but because she's a breast feeding fascist (who thinks everyone who disagrees with her is an idiot) and it would massively wind her up.
Anonymous - in case my brother in law frequents/. and recognises my handle.
Yup, they're great, but you're right about the cost. They need to charge me £100 for installing FTTC (Infinity), whereas BT will do it free of charge, and charge less per month. It's tempting to go to BT, get them to install it, and then go back to Andrews and Arnold after the contract is up.
No, it's a bad thing - have you any idea how these people not being killed in gun massacres are over-burdening the NHS? Come on people, you have to think about the greater good.
It's not a bad idea - I'm pondering doing the same (albeit with a more powerful machine) for a range of domains I have. The reason being it's a bitch to migrate the email when changing providers rather than NSA monitoring.
However, it's a problem when you ISP implements carrier-grade NAT or doesn't allow incoming connections on TCP 25.You could use their MX server and then use something like fetchmail to pull down new mail (we used to do that before hosting our own MX server), but that of course leaves you relying on a 3rd party which will drop their trousers on request.
Well, have the government ever shut down a corporation? That'd count as execution*. It would be interesting to know what the capital punishment rate of corporations is to that of people.
* The difference I suppose is that the soul of the corporation can be reincarnated into a similar body and even live in the same house. Realisation of the day - corporations are Hindu.
The best solution is suck it up and bite the bullet, when enough people get busted and the questionable behaviour gets exposed as being the norm people become less embarrassed by. For the lying hypocritical jackass political types, who try to make our lives a misery expose the more and more and more.
What about the people who were arrested as they were in the wrong place at the wrong time, and subsequently released without charge. Why should their photos be up there, and why should they be expected to pay to have them removed.
The Dutch have the right idea - you're not allowed to publish a person's name or likeness (photo, artist's rendition) unless they have been convicted. It has occasionally resulted in the amusing situation of CCTV stills being published with a box over the eyes, but it certainly stops people's lives being fucked up by the media who will plaster faces on the front page, and then ignore it when they are never charged.
Definitely, thought the Jack Ryan universe got a bit stupid in the end. I did however enjoy tying up various characters from all the books, even the minor ones (Bondarenko, Ozo). I have to say that Red Storm Rising was probably my favourite.
Shame to see him go, even though I haven't read any new of his for absolute years.
To be fair, killing people with flu would reduce healthcare costs, and would increase the number of jobs available (or reduce the state pension costs if the person is retired). The undertaking business would also boom during Winter months, and inheritance tax income would be higher because people would be more likely to have higher savings due to dying early. Of course it would increase training costs for companies whose employees have been killed, so it's not all good news. Also, it might upset some family members.

ROR!
Because the TSA employees get treated so badly - no funding, get sacked immediately when they do something wrong, etc.
So you can have your fake plastic people performing fake plastic songs.
Nothing wrong with fake plastic trees though.

But the summary didn't say DNA alphabet, I thought we were reading the summary completely literally without taking into account any context.
But you didn't. If you read what it said you would have:
26x26x26x26 = 456,976
Assuming you have 26 letters in your alphabet. Irish has less, German has more.
I was under the impression that to receive inbound public mail, TCP 25 had to be used.

They don't need to be consistent - you preach to people who come to you for information, not those who come to you for entertainment.

The broadcasters are stomping around like their right to profit was handed down by god
Well, it is Fox.
Wait, I have to pay my dues for being arrested? I thought I have to pay my dues if I'm convicted.
