No FB, no twitter, no snapchat, absolutely no accounts on "social media". Given the number of working neurons in your typical Homeland Security worker, that means I get the hammer to the kneecaps until I give up an account.
but I'm pretty sure I saw it drop from the bull. What is LTE, you may ask? A marketing term. Stands for Long Term Evolution. Nothing technical about it. There is no RFC defining LTE. Tweak your protocol to get an extra 2% throughput? That's LTE. Come up with a completely different protocol only your network supports? That's LTE.
It just hit me. Wouldn't it be funny as hell if Snotnose got enough write in votes that the news media had to report it, even though nobody knows who the hell I am? I'm sure it would take them all of a day to track me down, but I'd deny it and there are 4-5 other snotnoses out there so it would take them another day to be sure it's me.
Even better, I'm old enough to be prez and don't think I have anything disqualifying me from being prez. Just change your vote from Deez Nutz to Snotnose.
Air conditioning in the home, car, and office work fine. Is this aimed at people who actually go outside?
FWIW, don't remember where I read the original article, but the idea of cows having fart bags to capture their "emissions" seems really ripe for a Gary Larson cartoon. Gary, do you read/.? Wanna quit snorting coke off hooker tits for an hour or so and give us the image our mind's eye is trying to show?
if we had a TLA agency with a billion dollar budget that could seek out, explore strange new software platforms and new exploits, to boldly go where no hacker has gone before. And then tell the vendors where the damned holes are so they could get patched, instead of sitting on them so they can attack someone else when they get their panties in a bunch.
This November write in Snotnose for president, I promise to cut the NSA budget by 75% and redirect those funds to a TLA that will find the stuff that makes us insecure, and tell the damned vendors about them so we're all, not just USA citizens, but world citizens, safer. And, if the vendors don't fix the holes in a timely fashion, my new TLA has a hotline to the DOJ to light a fire under their complacent asses.
While I'm at it I'll go after the pharma Cxx's that are profiting off Epi-pens and generic drugs. You wanna get rich at the expense of my health? You get to go to jail, where the only medication you get is generic stuff that you have to pay for with your $0.10/hour wage folding laundry. Only pharma Cxx's have to pay, regular inmates get their drugs for however they pay for them now.
Honestly, the way some people talk on the phone makes listening to their voice mail annoying as hell. They ramble, go off topic, clear their throat, go on and on, and finally get around to telling you what you need about when the time limit expires. So then they have to call again, tell you all about how the previous voice mail cut them off, ramble a bit, repeat as needed.
In 40 years I've used dozens of languages, the only one I learned to actively hate was Javascript/ECMAscript. A pathetic, piss poor excuse for a language.
I've heard PHP is just as bad but, as I've never written anything in PHP I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.
A board designed to investigate a technical thing, being staffed by people who are better at raising money and making good sound bites than actually knowing anything about what they're supposed to be figuring out.
On second thought, erase the word "technical" from that paragraph.
It wasn't planned. At the time I was going to night school learning welding, carpooling with 2 other guys, class got out at 11:30 PM. School was downtown San Diego, we all lived 20 miles east at the time (El Cajon). Driving home one Thursday night we'd smoked our customary 2-3 bowls when we were going past Mission Valley, where the theater sign proclaimed Star Wars with a midnight showtime. I said "Hey, anyone wanna catch a movie?". The other 2 guys said sure, I got off the freeway, parked, got in line, the rest is history.
When I got divorced 8 years ago my gaming box did not survive the move, for whatever reason the power supply took a dump on the 5V rails and took out the motherboard and the graphics card (the initial smoke, then the scorch marks when I opened the case, told the tale). Bought a PS3, got used to gaming sitting in my La-Z-Boy with my cat in my lap. Granted, not as good as a gaming box, then again with a gaming box I'm in an office chair with no room for the cat.
My laptop won't run this game, this is the first time I've thought about building another gaming box and the cat can lick his balls. Except I had his balls cut off years ago, so he can look cute from across the room.
First time I have to do something I do it.
Second time I think of how to automate it
Third time I test my script
Fourth time I refine my script
Fifth time I run my script and go back to whatever I was doing.
We all know most people only have 2-3 passwords, which get used for the dozens of times a password is needed. If I sniffed a password I wouldn't bother with the lock, I'd start seeing what else used that same password.
The thieves simply looked up the vehicles' VIN numbers in a stolen database, reprogramed a generic key fob, started the cars, and drove away. Chrysler has confirmed that more than 100 of their vehicles have been stolen in the Houston area since November. Chrysler/Jeep owners should always make sure their vehicles are locked!
They're duplicating the key fob. If it's good enough to start the car it's good enough to unlock the damned thing.
Even better, the VIN is easily readable from outside the car. This whole thing smacks of TSA level security. That is, look like you're doing something while creating a bottleneck, when in reality all you're doing is creating a bottleneck.

It's usually some stupid shit like Justin Bieber spotted with some chick eating lunch, or a rapper dissin another rapper.
To me, "Trending" is equivalent to "stupid bullshit only morons care about".
Netflix isn't run on a server in Reed Hasting's bathroom? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.
The fact that I still don't need to have Java installed anywhere to enjoy the Weird, Wild Web.

why I don't have a FB account?
// Which means duck duck go gets 99% of my search queries
Yeah, my main access to my kid's and grandkid's vacations are via FB
I'm perfectly happy to wait till they're home, unpacked, clothes washed, next weekend they're off to find out how things went.
Call me neanderthal, at least FB has no way to track me.
/ I also do all I can to ensure google can't track me

I fucking hate voice mail.
Please please please let me remove any app I don't want without being forced to root my phone.
Fuck these assholes.

I was fucking stoned and it was after midnight. I have no idea.

Damn, house Ds. Boxer/Feinstein are in the Senate. My sentiments remain the same tho.
who happens to be either Barbara Boxer (D-umshit) or Dianne Fienstein (D-tached) and tell them to STFU and retire already?
// I'm not holding it
/// retire already, you 2 old dipshits
