I'm not sure how well a 500lb person could hurt me but I'm also not that sure I could hurt him that well either.
Given enough time, and a bit of luck you could win. Could...(Saw Remy Bonjasky kick the shit out of Akebono a couple years ago. It took a "lucky" head kick to put Akebono down. Until that kick Remy had been kicking at a "wall".)
Absolutely can deny service; all legislatures _I_ know, but, perhaps not universal. However, once allowed in you can not limit the numbers of pizzas they can eat.
To make a long story short, sice the signals travel through the air, anyone has access to them. With enough will, one can "decode" them; so, basically, wireless networking lacks physical security. Having said that, for most of the stuff that the majority of the people do, one WPA variant or another is good enough. Also, if one only allows IPSEC traffic one is somewhat less vulnerable. I, for one, always run my APs open, but make sure all _MY_ traffic is secure. Yes I could add more layers, but, knowing me, that would actually make me less paranoid. This was I make DAMN sure I encrypt everything I push through.
There actually are some data compatible MD players out there. OLD ones...SCSI. Saw one real cheap in Akihabara a while back. Almost got it just for kicks.
Actually, they are pretty slow. I have a few, so I am relatively familiar with them. For example, an old PIII 500 laptop with 228 MB memory can play slingbox streams flawlessly with about 40%CPU usage. A C3 800 with 512 MB memory pegs the CPU and drops a lot of frames - regardless of whether I use the on board S3 video, or an add on Matrox video card. They are both running Win2k.
I hear your pain. Two easy/simple things you can do: 1. replace the cheap ass CPU fan with a quieter one, and, 2. hook those two case fans in series - that slows them enough to make them just about completely quiet, yet they still manage to push out enough warm air - 250GB WD drive in mine.
"rip" to ISO or bin/cue, you can then "mount" the ISO or bin/cue, and, for all intents and purposes, you have the original DVD. There are other, better ways, but, this is pretty much guaranteed to have all the features of the original DVD.
Didn't read TFA but... Maybe she actually cares that the students learn something; yes, even in spite of themselves. In a "previous life" I used to teach and was considered by many students a bit of a bastard... to put it mildly. You know what, years later when I met some of my students they actually thanked me for being an ass. That made up for all the crap I had to put up with the college's "leaders".
Dude, you are forgetting that it's been almost twenty years since that movie. That's right, it's been so long ago.... those days television was called books.:-)
My favourite scene:
Vizzini: I can't compete with you physically, and you're no match for my brains. Westley: You're that smart? Vizzini: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates? Westley: Yes. Vizzini: Morons.
People put up with a snotty maitre d' for the same reason: value. In this case avionics. The Russians have often made equally good, and sometimes better airframes, but, it's the avionics that matter most.
I am now in the US surrounded by people who are here semi-legally; basically they are OK to be here but not OK to work. Guess what, they work and make a lot of money, enough for them to help their famillies "back home"; and yet I almost never see any money changing hands. Bartering and promisory notes are just as good, as long as the web of trust exists.
If so, set up all your aliases in said file, and then "source" that file when you login. An extra step, but, it's not to hard to type "source.aka"... unless I am missunderstanding the question.
There is a simple way to avoid the problems you so well state. Well, this being *nix we're talking about, there are several ways... but, I digress. Have your home environment in CVS on a box somewhere. When you first log in to a machine that you know you will be doing some work on, say more than a ten minutes clean up job, you do a cvs check out... voilà, all your stuff is working as you expect. Touch the ".myconfig/permanent" file if you want to keep your environment files on any given machine, otherwise get your logout scripts to erase everything.

Not yet... as far as you know. ;-)
Would a "plus costs" verdict not take care of that? Just wondering...
they never evolved to have art or culture.
Should that not be "they never evolved to have art or culture that we humans recognize as such"?
Yes, but, that saves your changes, whereas ":q" or, more precisely, "q!" doesn't.

Wish I had mod points for you.
"Physical access" is one of the reasons why wireless will never - well, not anytime soon, anyway - be fully secure.

Because they want to, in a round about way, show that it's not only the Muslims that have the nut cases. It's sort of a "case mod" pissing context ...

Yes, but, nothing trumps incompetent diabolical planning.
