Just tell the would-be robbers that you mean business:
"Checking in at Starbucks 5 miles from home...but my attack dogs and trigger happy roommate hate coffee"
You obviously are new to/. Actual RTFA, comprehending what it says and making a rational comment are not the norm. You need to read the sensational headline, and then post a diatribe about the evils of copyright, the music cabal, and anyone that actually wants to make money of what they create; and make a bad car analogy and then rant against anyone who violates the GPL.

I've worked in the Kansas City caves and sat behind a desk on a computer for a while. It's fascinating for the first day but that ends quickly.

Especially when you hear creaks and cracks all day in the dead of silence. I would not want to be an IT admin working in a cave.

Or Dire Straits.

Maybe Al wouldn't have needed to beat on Ziggy all the time on Quantum Leap if he wouldn't cover up the antenna with his cigar hand.
Didn't Pauly Shore do this in BioDome?
