There is someone I know close to me (I am not about to say who!) who in the past did opium poppy farming. It was a nice (but not massive) income, better than farming the other standard crops. Some of the crop was used for medicinal purposes, and the rest sold off. There, it does not do nearly the damage it does in the US. I wonder what that means?
The licence checking is done at VM power up, apparently.
Rebooting the host causes a problem according to TFA:
UPDATE 5: Apparently, there are no easily seen warnings in logs/etc or VC prior to hitting the bug. VC will continue to show the hosts as licensed and no errors will appear in vmkernel log file until you try to start up a new vm, reboot a vm, or reboot the host.
The practices may be uncommon at this time, but I assure you that all of the vegetarians I know are completely normal humans.
Normal humans... with a vitamin B12 deficiency, unless they really know what they're doing.
Seriously, go vegetarian/vegan if you like, but don't do it without the help of someone who really knows what they're doing (like a doctor or dietitian). Remember, humans weren't built to be vegetarians, so it takes some special care to live on a diet like that.
Wrong, no deficiency, at least for lacto-ovo vegetarians (those that eat eggs and dairy). As long as you get a varied diet, you are fine.
I have been a vegetarian since I was born -- thirty-one years and counting. What do I do? Each week, eat dairy and eggs, have several colors of vegetables, eat fruit and grains, possibly some legumes. Make sure it is all in variety. Don't eat too often the crap that is fast food, sugary/fatty snacks, or other foods with obviously poor nutrition. Seriously, check out the Wikipedia page. Read it and you see that any reasonable diet works.
Most people's problem is that they can not conceive of many meals that do not contain meat. Aspiring vegetarians simply need to be able to come up with meals other than mac and cheese every night. (That is an exaggeration, but the point stands.) This can be confounded by the societal assumption that a person doesn't eat meat, so 80% of cookbook recipes have meat (though they can be modified with thought), many restaurants do not have meatless main courses, and other people can't come up with non-meat options.
Seriously, it is not that hard to be vegetarian if society does not push the meat. There are parts of India that have large vegetarian populations. A number of Asian countries that have vegetarian Buddhist sects will often have a wider array of veggie options (I love the mock duck and mock abalone).
In conclusion, as long as you are sensible and do not let your environment confound you, it is easy to be a healthy vegetarian. It's not like the average American meat-eater has that great of a diet. A vegetarian diet matching that quality is trivial. A good one is no harder than a good meat-eating diet.
Same thing in Laos. You have:
Group#/House# Village
District
Province
Each village is cordoned off into arbitrarily numbered groups, and houses are numbered in order of registration -- that's the order of construction for newer areas.
To say that something is not alive simply because it can not live outside its environment is wrong. For example, what about various parasitic worms? They can not live outside the confines of the gut (or wherever they happen to live), and spread through eggs passed in feces (or whatever medium they happen to use). Are worms not alive? What about when people are removed from an airspace? Fish from water? Those weird bacteria from the super-hot magma heat vents? Mitochondria from a cell?
For replication, another post already mentioned that mitochondria replicate.
Many types of life are symbionts. They live only in a very specific environment, and die outside of it. Mitochondria (it is believed) used to be independent bacterial organisms that at one point became symbiotic with some other type of organism, providing a more efficient form or energy utilization. Before this happened, would you have considered them alive? Do you consider bacteria alive? Assuming yes to the former, when did the live symbiotic bacteria become non-living organelles?
My real point here is that living/non-living is not as clear cut as you seem to believe, not that mitochondria are actually alive, since I believe them to be in a grey area.
I have very deliberately avoided installing Flash on my machines. This story provides yet another reason why such a policy is good. It keeps out some annoying ads, too.

It's not paranoia if they are really out to get you.
If I moved to Israel I would hate to be told that "Michael Smith" sounds like a rude word in the local language and I couldn't use my normal email address.
What does Michael Smith sound like in Hebrew? I cannot think of a single dirty Hebrew phrase that sounds like Michael Smith, especially since Michael is a Hebrew name ("Mi CaEl"- "Who is like God?" in Hebrew).
He doesn't say it does. He says he would hate to be told that it does and be forbidden an email address based on his name as a result. Perhaps if we change the name to "Cece Smith" and the country to "Laos" -- pronounced the average way, this could sound like "four fuck Smith". Or people would see that it was a name and not have a problem.
So, what you're saying is that Fucking tourists from the UK visit and then steal the Fucking signs. Since the Fucking village is so small, they can't afford to replace the Fucking signs.
And what you're asking is, then, for the Fucking tourists to keep their Fucking hands off the Fucking signs?
Sounds [censored] good to me.

A supplier of Free Software can never be sure that someone he doesn't even know about let alone control will decide to review his source code.
The GP is correct. You have to trust others to not jack you.

In Laos, dog meat is advertised by posting one of the dog numbers: 11, 51, or 91. Everyone there knows what they mean, though not many buy.
