California is like that as a whole to some extent.
Asked for directions from the San Diego trolley stop at Arnele Avenue (La Mesa or El Cajon, not actually SD) to a mall 3 blocks away and they suggested catching a bus.
A house of extremely dubious quality might result in a little damage when overpressure reaches somewhere between 10 and 15 pounds, so your average house, of normal quality, is probably not going to sustain any damage at all.
Most newer houses are of extremely dubious quality!
1. The authorities could have the JPEG converted to a PPM, and md5 that. Messing with exif tags won't work. Image fingerprinting will come into play. If I can get a song on the radio ID'd by my cellphone I'm sure the above is doable. 2. Citation please. MD5 is NOT that broken. 3. An MD5 hit would be used for screening, not conviction. The file would be examined. A key lime pie recipie with a gigabyte of junk on the end might match the MD5 (it might take 3 years to craft it up), but would be recognizable as not being an illegal file. You can't choose a file to collide with another file's hash. It takes a LONG time to get such a file, even with md5's flaws. And the file is completely meaningless junk, or perhaps something with meaning and a lot of junk on the end. As for planting evidence, that can of course be done, but the file must be illegal, not the MD5. Know the difference between a screening test and a confirmatory test. TSA stopped me because some keys and quarters made the machine beep in the airport. That was a screening test, and they did a shoe test with the tape and the machine that costs more than a house - the confirmatory test. I'm not a terrorist - but the false positive wasn't a problem (I should hate the TSA for having to wait for 2 minutes, right... otherwise I'm a right winger, eh?) - as long as the confirmatory test doesn't have that issue. You get a hit on the screen - you check the file or the shoes, as the case may be. Easy.
The court did the right thing by invoking the 4th Amendment for an MD5. No need to go off the deep end...
There are deeds that are worse than others. Those class of deeds are ones that one cannot undo. One can return or replace stolen goods. One can fix what was broken.
Plus, for some strange reason, ext3 seems to lose a lot of files on my systems (although they can be recovered by running fsck) during normal operation.
With ReiserFS, Hans himself will tell you where missing items have gone.
Is it really worth some extra power in a server farm in exchange for dying drives and their associated cost, including the increased possibility of data loss?

Nothing over 10,000 is anywhere near low.
Guess you haven't dealt with government budgets...
Or Windows bugs...
She would've found that there have been thousands of doomsday claims over thousands of years, and that every single one was without merit.
Of course every doomsday prediction has proved false. If one had proved true, we wouldn't be here to debate it!

Wow.

I have an Asus P2B motherboard in a computer from late 1998 and it still works great!
There are a lot of dual cycle power plants that use gas to run a turbine, and then use the waste heat to make steam to run another turbine.

I've seen DOS being used in a business this year.
DOS ain't dead!
Agreed.
He's facing charges in FAMILY COURT.
I.e. he'll get a juvie record, which is sealed.
They don't try you as an adult in family court.
Then when the proxies ban you, what next, botnets?
Then comes Federal prison. Federal PMITA Prison.

Bill Gates should go to hell for Windows.
There ain't no fixing that!
You call Windows "extremely capable"??

That's scary. If that happened in a home, it is very likely the structure would catch fire.
I wouldn't want to buy from that brand.
Stuff breaks, but it should fail safe.
I had a ViewSonic monitor die.
No flames.
No smoke.
No sparks.
Just wouldn't turn on (power light would only go to yellow, like there was no signal).
I have a UPS, and it doesn't help when the kernel crashes.
For that, you still need ext3.
With ReiserFS, your system could end up dead.
Great, a file system called "btrfs" supports "tail packing".
Let's not go there.
Why use ext2 for boot?
ext3 works fine, you can even set data=journal if you want (as I do), by passing the in the rootflags.
(I'm also curious how you manage to save 1/2 a million in just five years just by not having cable etc?)
Guess you don't have Cox Cable. ;)

One could use RAID-1 to regain the reliability.
Modern cars turn off traction control if an incompatible wheel (e.g. spare tire) is installed.
The highest speed limit in the US is 75 MPH, so 5 above that is in fact 80 MPH.
Sentencing is set for December when Papagno could face up to two years in jail for the thefts.
Luckily for him he merely stole the machines, instead of broke into them.
He'd be facing 5 years for that.
Would Trusted Computing help here?
Does the term Slave offend you when referenced related to the IDE bus?
It is banned in LA:
