How long do you think 40 bit adresses would last before we ran out of those as well? When they designed IPv6, they considered 64bit addresses, but decided that it was a better idea to go straight to 128 and only have to do the transition ONCE instead of every 50 years.
If you say your boss does crack and he has no record or history of doing so, you're going to have to explain why you thought so (found a crackpipe under his desk, etc).
Another happy x220 laptop user here. So far my experience after 6 months is that the thing is amazing.
Screen resolution is only 1366x768 (bummer, but few non-huge laptops are any better)
With the 9-cell battery (default is 6) and pcie_aspm=force, I got 11 hour battery new, and 9.5 hours when 6 months old
Mic-mute button does nothing, but I've never needed it (output mute works perfectly)
Touchpad enable/disable does nothing, but I've yet to hit the touchpad by accident in over 6 months (and I used to do that regularly on my other laptops)
With the SSD the only noise is the fan which occasionaly turns itself OFF because the CPU (i3) stays below 50 under normal load and isn't needed 100%!!!
For non-AAA gaming, the intel chipset does just fine. 60fps in UrbanTerror at full resolution.I can even output full 1080p via ext display (haven't tried with gaming yet).
I don't know about the US, but I can guaratee you that in Canada libel and slander must meet 3 criteria:
1) It must be false.
2) The accused must have known it was false.
3) It must damage the reputation of the defendant.
The original iPod WOULD have failed miserably if they they hadn't give them away free to every radio station, tv station, high school, raffle draw and fundraiser as prizes for 2.5 years straight. There was a running joke back then that more people won iPods than bought them. People only started "buying" them in large quantities when they saw that everyone else had (won) them.
Some do, some don't. I have cracked windows passwords (friend's daughter set up the computer for him and moved away). Downloading the rainbow table took longer than actually cracking it.
Don't forget to use the MPAA and RIAA's "special" calculators to calculate the cost in damages caused by these interruptions. $50,000/link should just about cover it.
Installing used to be easy. Insert disk -> install. Now you have to figure out which of 8 keys your particular motherboard uses to enter bios, enable USB boot, change the boot order and now disable UEFI. It's starting to get much less fun:(
I can type on a real calculator about 4 times faster than a touchscreen and trying to quickly scetch out wiring diagrams and routing information on a phone is an effort in frustration. For some things, doing it the old fashioned way is faster, safer and less prone to mistakes.
Those no-touch AC testers (that beep near 120V lines) are very handy when tracking down power problems. No need for the huge claw ones, the $10 Canadian Tire ones work just fine.
I find a decent scientific calculator comes in handy a LOT when quickly calculating required bandwidth, volume (servers/square foot), cable lengths, etc.
I'd say either a headlamp or one of those velcro straps that lets you attach a small flashlight to the side of your head. Having 2 hands is pointless when one of them is holding the flashlight and the other is holding the cable mess out of the way!

You are correct, but 1080p is unfortunately the highest resolution monitor I've had the privilige of connecting to it :(

Right, because end users give a flying fuck about the length of an ip address they NEVER SEE.

You ask that like they were 2 different things!

You'd have to decrypt my root partition first.

Ah, thanks.
The same place as the concepts of correct and false, up and down, inside and outside, etc.
Hint: it wasn't an old book with questionable fairy tales and an unconfirmed author.
Unless they just reformatted it, in which care 30 seconds with testdisk gives you everything back.
I thought they only required the OEM to let you disable secure boot, not necessarily add your own key.
Computers that ship with Windows 8 for x86 or x86-64 must ship with Secure Boot turned on but (importantly) must ship with a way to turn it off.
Did they mandate what steps must be used in order to do that? I won't be surprised if disabling it is about as easy reprogramming the bios itself!
That's briliant. I've yet to see a virus that can convince a user to hit an "OK" button!
Try to fit it in your pocket...

An edit button that only works for 10 seconds would solve SO many problems and give trolls very little leverage to play with.
According to the summary, the Chinese are *ahead* of us!
