  1. Wow, marked troll for making a joke...I wish I had mod points to correct this egregious insult!

    The thing is, no matter how often you are proven wrong, you keep coming back with the same arguments. You don't care about how wrong you are, you care about spamming everyone everywhere with your horrible hosts file solution.

    There's a small, but vocal, group in pretty much any forum who thinks that the way to win an argument is to make threats and insults until the other side is driven out of the forum. Then they win.

    Are we speaking of Reddit Trolls or APK?

    8.) Protect vs. spam

    Does it protect against your spam? How does it protect against email spam?

    No it doesn't.

    10.) Protect vs. caps

    We all wish it would protect against your abuse of caps, but it seems to keep failing

  7. Re:Black hole in the astronomical desert on Monster Black Holes May Lurk All Around Us (yahoo.com) · · Score: 1

    What about black hole makes you think of giant vacuum cleaners? The name implies nothing of the sort, and physics doesn't either. If the earth were to suddenly become a black hole, nothing with regards to the orbits of celestial objects would change. The same is true for the sun, or any other object. The moon won't get sucked in by the black hole Earth, Mercury won't get sucked in by black hole Sun (lol).

    Things orbit black holes just as they would orbit something of an equivalent mass that wasn't a black hole. Shifting over into a black hole doesn't make things suddenly start falling in.

    The current, Republican-controlled congress could, of course decide to wipe those laws from the books (federally, at least), but demonstrate the hypocrisy by failing to do so.

    So, how exactly would they get that law passed with Obama as the final veto? Do you expect enough Democrats to side with them to get the 2/3 needed to bypass a veto?

    but as a gender point can't politicians change their minds?

    As far as I have heard, Gender is pretty much set, you don't get to change your mind on your gender, or people would be switching back and forth more often. /s

    Sure, there might be some third party utility to serve as a proxy between SSH and Powershell but how much bloat are you willing to accept as sane and reasonable?

    You mean like the third party OpenSSH for Linux? Calling it bloat is kind of hilarious when that is how Linux does things. You have programs which are generated by different teams to do different jobs. Windows does things differently from Linux. In Windows, to use remote Powershell through a secure channel, you use the WinRM service, which can allow you to run scripts against other servers over the internet or intranet.

    For a laptop, just have a camera on the top of the USB device so it can take a picture up.

    Another option is a USB based OOB card paired to a 3g modem for connectivity.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

    With USB-C, they are now pairing Thunderbolt, which gives direct access to the PCI-e bus, which would make this an even easier thing to do.

    When in college, I found someone's flash drive. It had been run over by a vehicle, so I got the email address from a resume and emailed them the field with a note about the hardware being destroyed. Never much thought much about it, but this was 15+ years ago.

    It should be interesting what more can be done on the new USB-C connections that have USB and Thunderbolt, as they will have access to the PCI-e bus directly.

  19. Google is a cult.

    Considering Apple is just as much a cult, and in fact is less open to working with other company's stuff, I can only look to Microsoft in comparison, and everything they are doing for interoperability in the mobile phone area. It is kind of scary when we are talking about Microsoft being more open than the successors to Linux and BSD.

    Protip, Lot was in the Old Testament, not the New Testament. The New Testament is about Jesus, who was descended from Lot, but Lot was in Genesis.

  24. Equal access under the law.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

    Fourteenth Amendment, specifically this part in the first section, last line:

    nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

    It was passed in 1868, so a bit earlier than your 20 year assertion, so you might have missed it somehow.
