Doesn't S/MIME kind of depend up on you using only one email client? The client with the certificate. Who uses just one email client these days?
No, that's not the problem. You can spam your certificate to everybody in the World, it's meant for public distribution. The problem is that any mail client that wants to sign your messages or decrypt messages sent to you needs access to your private key. That means you can't use S/MIME or any public key system on a device you don't trust.
Then again, you have no business composing sensitive emails or trusting signatures on a device you don't trust.
Slashdot is not a proposal to management so while you may be looking for a prize at a spelling bee other poster does not need to do so.
I expect that is why the parent starts with "if this is how..." which includes a tacit acknowledgement that maybe it is different writing emails to management (as compared to writing posts on Slashdot).
FFS, I thought feeding kids Shakespear was supposed to cure them of a spelling obsession. Is that still being taught in schools?
Shakespeare's days are in the past. We have standardised spellings now and not using them* in a business context makes you look unprofessional.
*plural because the US and UK and probably other countries have different standards.
It is really illegal. There's a law against it. If the law was secret, you might have a point but, if not, you can avoid the fines by stopping listing rooms on AirBNB.
In these cases, if you use loops, you're going to be making up all the stuff recursion is good for, and you're going to be maintaining your own stacks. There's no advantage to doing this rather than using recursion.
Yes there is. If you use your own stacks, you have visibility over when the stack space is going to run out. It will also have a smaller memory footprint than recursing using the system stack since each stack frame has to contain the return address and the link pointer for the previous stack frame, as well as space to save local variables.
I'm not advocating avoiding recursion but there are advantages to not using it when you expect a lot of levels of recursion.
Aren't most Android apps essentially some form of Java byte code which is agnostic in terms of the word width of the virtual machine in which it is running?
That doesn't support your case at all. There's only one mention of Lotus on the page and it has nothing to do with crippling Lotus 123 from a technical point of view.
In fact, Lotus did it to themselves by failing to provide Win32 versions of their applications in a timely fashion.
This is a bad idea. rm is a sharp tool and you should never do anything to it that makes you think it isn't. One day you'll be working on somebody else's system but you'll have forgotten that rm can be dangerous and you'll merrily delete something career ending, go look for it in/trash and then have to commit ritual suicide.
Word Perfect 5.1 was a wretched disaster. You had to have the "reveal codes" option switched on or you'd find your document full of unnecessary control codes. I came to it from Word for Mac and I couldn't believe how fundamentally wrong it was.
I saw Rogue One in 2D. The colour palette is very dark, intentionally so.
3D reduces the amount of light that reaches your eyes by about 30% IIRC, It would be obvious, therefore, for the studio to deliberately make the image brighter, and it sounds to me, from your description that they have done exactly that in this case.
No Brexit has reduced the price that Apple (and the developers) get for apps sold in the UK store because 79p is now significantly less than 99c once you subtract the 20% VAT that Apple has to give to the government for everything sold in the UK store. The pound loses value, so of course imports into the UK are going to cost more. Why is this even a thing?
Nobody is persecuting Assange except Assange himself. His incarceration in the Ecuadorian embassy is entirely voluntary.
If he steps out the door he will be arrested and sent to Sweden to answer a rape accusation, but that is not persecution either because it is the end result of a transparent legal process.
The problem is that an Uber ride is fundamentally no different to any other taxi ride in terms of cost. The reason why an Uber journey is cheaper than a regular taxi journey is that the Uber journey is effectively subsidised by Uber investors and the driver/owner of the car who doesn't know his/her true costs.
Uber's business model is fundamentally flawed. They have no competitive advantage over normal taxis except the ability to bilk investors in California out of their money.
Let's say Uber perfects the driverless taxi: their model has always been to push the cost of vehicle ownership onto their drivers. Are they going to suddenly change that and buy a fleet of cars? Can they buy a fleet of driverless cars more cheaply and quickly than a large taxi company that already has all the necessary support and maintenance facilities in place?
Wales was one of the most pro Brexit regions of the UK in the referendum, which might seem strange because they benefit more than most from EU grants and very few immigrants want to go there.
Scotland was strongly anti-Brexit but it's too late for them to vote to stay in the EU. If they manage to swing another Indyref, it won't be in place before we've left the EU, so they'll need to reapply.
Dongles per se do not bother me. I have a selection of dongles for various purposes - always have. What winds me up is that the dongles are all designed to go at the laptop end of the cable.
For the last n years, I have had to carry around a selection of about seven different cables for USB, mini USB, micro USB, USB 3.0, firewire (-400 and -800), Thunderbolt, HDMI. If I could replace all of these with two or three USB-C cables and seven dongles, I'd be very happy.
I agree it was a mistake. This and the removal of the C style for loop sucked away a huge quantity of energy in the early days of swift evolution.
The good news with ++ and -- is that it is trivial to put them back in.
prefix func ++(n: inout Int) -> Int { n = n + 1 ; return n }
postfix func ++(n: inout Int) -> Int {defer { n = n + 1 } ; return n }
Somebody should do a survey on Github Swift projects to see how many of them define those operators. If it is a lot, we can assume Swift.org made a mistake.

You're about 10 years behind the times.

Of course they do. The Trojan horse on wierd_w's PC tells them everything.

So if you don't hand over your Facebook password, you might be organising a terrorist group from your Facebook page so you can't enter the |USA.
If you do hand over your Facebook password, you have committed a felony, so you can't enter the USA.
That strikes me as exactly the outcome that the Trump administration is looking for.

And in what currency does Apple pay its suppliers? i.e. app developers music distributers etc?

Apart from the European arrest warrant, you mean.

How do you pardon somebody who has not even been convicted?
How many years away? Uber loses money at a rate of about $2 billion per year. How long can they carry that on for?
Would you get on a plane that had no human pilot aboard?
