The company I work for has a security policy in place, regular employees & contractors who leave voluntarily are processed through an automated program all accounts are shut down within 48 hours. Immediate terminations & IT employees who leave voluntarily are manually terminated within 4 hours, but are expected to be shut down in less than 1 hour. Our team verifies the auto terms since sometimes the process forgets to work, and our manager has questioned why an immediate term or IT term has gone over 1 hour (there are a few gaps in our coverage even though we are considered a 24 hour team) I'm guessing this company had no such policy...
Put up a chain, gate or otherwise block the road. Place a lock on it. Pay a visit to your local fire department with a key to the lock with the address attached to it. If the fire department is like the one I used to serve on, the first fire engine has a set of keys on a large keyring, all with addresses and usually phone numbers too so if there is a need to access your road, they can let themselves in and lock up when they leave. We would also place a courtesy call afterward to let the owner know we had used the key. If you find a need to change the lock, update the key and information with the FD.
In Black & White? Then your SSC is a forgery or a copy, not legal for employment. Since the 1980s all SSC have been on blue paper and the not for identity has been in blue ink, al least every one I've seen (I did I-9 verification to prove legal status at a previous job, under "other duties as assigned") We had employees aged from 18 to 70+
The easiest workaround, if you are doing something questionable with your smartphone, is to carry a dumb phone, with an appropriate number of contacts: Mommy, a pastor, the local animal rescue shelter, etc. and hand that to the LEOs. They aren't going to ask "Is this the only phone?" They look, they see that you are Mr. Citizen of the Year and you're on your way...
If they use military-grade GPS systems they can get sub-inch accuracy. All everyone else can get a lot less accurate. One of the reasons China is putting up their own satellite constellation for the own GPS-type system, so they can achieve the same accuracy our system has. I suspect they either can't crack the coding to use the more accurate system, or more likely they have cracked it and reverse engineered it.
I am a former employee of Insight and here is their dirty little secret. When customers complained about speed issues for example they went to XYZ.com and their speed was slow, we directed them to the only "official speedtest site" which was on the Insight Broadband homepage. What customers didn't know was it never left the system they lived in. For example if you are a customer in Lexington the test went to the Lexington headend and back, so the speedtest levels were almost always at or above the "advertised" speed. So it never went out where the system might be congested or throttled by the company.
So how long did you serve on the North Korean side of the DMZ as part of the UN mission? I understand the anti-American sentiment, and probably both the NATO and Warsaw pact forces overflew most if not all European countries with or without permission. Considering the anger I sense in your post, I figure you served in North Korea on the DMZ as I served in South Korea on the DMZ for the US military. As for this "incident" I tend to agree with most of the other posts I have read. An aircraft goes up on a practice recon mission, has GPS issues, returns to base, and GPS checks out OK. Someone in the GPS repair shop remembers reading about Korean motorists, commercial pilots, and mariners complaining that their GPS units were not working correctly. That is the determination, that the GPS was disrupted but working fine. That would not make news within the military unit much less move up the chain of command, so it stands to reason that the US military has no knowledge of this "incident" The North Korean military fired up their toy, heard the radio transmissions, and passed it up their chain of command to the propaganda ministry who then spun the story to friendly foreign journalists who swallowed the spin and published it.
I think people claiming that Mark Zuckerburg gave them half of Facebook or stole their idea or et cetera is going to become the Howard Hughes will of this era. I think my e-mail from Mark Zuckerburg saying I own half of Facebook is in the same document file as my will saying Howard Hughes gave me half of his estate...
Would it have been so hard to use the summary to reveal who Gary Gygax is? It's not like he's a famous geek like John Bardeen.
Unless you are under 25, you must turn in your geek card...Gary Gygax was the founder of TSR, which produced the RPG Dungeons and Dragons, now owned by Wizards of the Coast.
