I found mine on a SunOS server at an early ISP (wolfe.net). We started using the 'talk' program and realized that lived just a few blocks from each other. The first place we made out was at the local POP in front of the modem rack. We later went to work for that ISP.
That's why the US has E85, so frat boys won't drink it. The BATF requires that the Ever^H^H^H^H fuel be rendered unfit for drinking (i.e.; mix with gasoline.)
Q) What countries have more relaxed UAV regulations?
A) Australia and New Zealand are famously progressive in their UAV policies. Other countries, such as Mexico, have been know to be relatively friendly, too.
The "extra copper" isn't the problem, it's getting the copper to the right spot in the wall. It fails the geeky-fun test when the drywall tools come out (and stay out for days.)

After decades in system/network admin I got off my fat ass and took a job installing DirecTV. Lost about 30# that first year. Beat but HAPPY when I got home. I didn't pay anywhere near what the desk jobs did but I felt a hell of a lot better about myself.
Get your step-son to apply at DirecTV, they're always hiring. Yeah, it's hard work but you can take it anywhere and it won't be out-sourced. There is a lot of brain work involved too, no two installs are the same. It will really be hell in the Maine winters, hauling a 28' fiberglass ladder around in the snow but it can be worth it when you save the mom with three rugrats and no TV. Or when you upgrade someone that just got a new flat-screen and had never seen it work in HD before. How many jobs are there where 99% of the time you leave the customer with a smile.
Nice trick question there. Of course the two correct answers are Mountain Dew or Triple Shot Americana, Black.
One trick we used back in early ISP days was to collect a box of old computer parts, connectors, and special tools, and then have them tell us what the stuff was for. Extra credit if they remarked on the 5.25" floppy disk with write protect notches on both sides (think C-64.)

Screw that! I'm holding out for the Duality! (Hell, gotta have someone to talk to.)
when you lose the ability to overthrow a corrupt regime through use of force,...
We lost that ability about the time tanks and fighter aircraft came out.
What? And end this FUD-fest we have going here? The advertisers would never allow that!
To get to my off-shore bank account.
Maybe they had a tip of some home-grown terrorist action planned. Maybe they even stopped one. You don't know. Did you even try to ask?

Most 3 digit ID posters have long ago stopped worrying about karma.
Those two companies may not be the best example at this time. Fast food may be better for your argument.
There was a bit of offset for fuel savings but, you're right.

I never caught that about Tibetan Buddhism and back in my hippie days I read quite a bit of Govinda and Wentz.

Good points, good post.
I'd friend you but I'd have to kick someone out :) (the problem of being here over a decade.) But I'll keep an eye out for your posts.
He'll fuck you up.

Me I could take industrial production machines apart.
Hell, I can do that too. It's the getting it back together and running that's the trick.
Mod parent up, insightful.
You really have to keep pissing off the FCC to get more than strongly worded letter.

I think state sales tax falls under that.
At one place (a large hosting company) we had DNS issues for a few days. "No, the network is not down, it's a DNS issue. We're working on it."
For the next year ANY computer issue was "DNS is broken!" And most of these remarks came from programmers and NOC staff.
Great! Now we're going to hear all about how the round mirror is broken.

Unreliable.
