All you have to do is remember a SYSTEM. One system for turning some known information into a password.
Lets say you want a password of Slashdot and you username is someuselessshithead15 .
A simple password could sD!sUSH15
The system I just made up is the first letter of word in the name of the site. Nouns are all capitalized. An exclamation point to seperate the name of the site from the screen name. And the screen name is written the same way as the name of the site with only the first letter of every word in the user name with nouns capitalized.
If I know that the name of the site is Slashdot and my username is someuselessshithead15 then I automatically know what my password is and that password is site specific.
Don't like that system? That isn't the point you myopic fucks... the point is to have "A" system. I pulled that one out of my ass... you can come up with a different one.
You can use the same system on every single fucking site and it is quite unlikely that anyone is going to figure it out.
If you want to be extra sneaky you can do something like instead of capitalizing nouns you can list nouns as their number in the alphabet. So instead of sD!sUSH15 you'd get s4!s22198
Seriously... no on is guessing that shit and it can be unique to each site. Even if you use the same screen name just having that seemingly random bit on the front of it is going to defeat anything but a serious attack.
You said that poor people don't have the "right" information and are so driven by economic factors that even if they do know they'll buy the wrong product because it is cheaper. So you want to force them to only buy the product you think is correct.
Water isn't locked like that. The water that goes into the great lakes comes as much from canada as anywhere. Where do your rain and snow storms come from? Your notion is that they only form over your lake and there is no introduction of water from outside the system which is absurd.
The atmospheric water that ultimately feeds your system comes from far beyond your area. Most of the water in the west coast comes from the pacific ocean. Your water is not appreciably different.
Okay... then go with my system, only condescendingly tell poor people that they're exclusively forbidden to make choices for themselves and that their betters, as represented by your noble self, will make those choices for them.
They are only filthy peasants after all... what do they know.
I will really be nice when this world view finally dies.
That isn't a governmental issue, that is an industry issue. The industries themselves can decide how they want to license their products. They don't need the EU to tell them what terms can be on it.
They do not and will not account for such situations because there isn't enough political power to slap the politicians in the mouth, make them look in your eye, and tell them how it is...
The powerful interests have that power which is why they get exemptions built into the system and the laws are generally tailored for their operation.
Anyone that can't do that tends to get fucked.
And as the system gets larger you have to hit the politicians in the face progressively harder to get them to pay attention.
As the system gets larger only the very largest interest get any attention at all. Which means all the less powerful interests are ignored. Outright irrelevant.
And that is a problem when entire countries or states in your government fall into that category.
No government or state can be irrelevant. And if they are then your system was poorly designed or you've grown too large for your existing system.
From what I gathered the show was making 300 million a year annually and they were paying him 1 million a year annually.
That's an absurd ratio. You're not going to see anything like that in commercial television.
Clarkson is going to be able to walk into any commercial outfit and get a comparable deal sight unseen.
I'd personally take a loan out for a million dollars and pay him a year's salary up front knowing that I could get a lot more than a million dollars for him.
Don't be stupid. Precautions will be taken. Not to make it impossible... impossible is impossible. The point rather is to make it difficult enough that it becomes much less common.
We're getting about one of these a YEAR at this point. The whole thing could accelerate. Steps need to be taken to change the probability curve.
Pretty much. The russians are unbelievably stupid to put an ex KGB guy that that pines for the good old soviet days in charge of the country.
He takes his shirt off and makes creepy faces while riding horses and then systematically sabatogues his country's future.
The west was in the process of economically integrating Russia into the world economy after decades of economic isolation. We wanted to put factories in Russia, we wanted to run rail through Russia, we wanted help them create lots of great paying jobs... and they've done "this"...
The Russians could be a very rich and powerful country. And instead they're destroying themselves.
They are the last remnant of the Eastern Empire. That's where their religion comes from. It is where their alphabet comes from. And it is where those onion domes come from.
The Eastern empire was always proud to a fault. Putin is on record saying that the Americans have come to him and said the US and Russia should ally. We have common interests.
And he openly scoffs at the notion. He says "we are not like you." Which means what exactly? That we don't have common interests? Because we do. That his people don't like having a prosperous society? The man is a terrible leader. He was handed everything. He was handed piece of bread and all he had to do to win... was make toast. And he fucked it up. He pulled down his paints and took a dump on the piece of bread.
That is not how one makes toast. Maybe in Russia... I don't know... but the man's failure thus far has been epic.
My uncle ran fiber. It is a lot cheaper and you don't need to deal with that bullshit. They just plugged the modem into a router at a neighbor's property, then ran fiber to his house from there where it went into a media converter and then a normal switch.
This is not rocket science.
As I said, the whole thing is basically a matter of talking to idiots until the retards put the yellow round block into the yellow round hole... instead of trying to eat it or banging it against their heads... or picking up the red square block and then whining that it doesn't fit into the yellow round hole.
It is frankly a frustrating issue because so solutions are so fucking obvious and so many people just can't deal with it that it just makes me want to put all the strychnine in the guacamole.
This is not complicated. It is fucking basic.
Oh you want to keep costs down and use a cable that maintains signal at long range? Lets use something that is expensive and fucking lossy. That's great idea.
What they should do in these situations is install a little media converter box on the tower, effectively cite that poll itself as the place they're cutting it off, run a cheap as shit fiber line to the house, and then either have a modem on that end or just another media converter and then another modem. I mean whatever. It isn't hard. Running the whole coax cable over there and back again though is what you do if on your off days you like to stick your dick in a blender just to see what will happen.
That professionals think this is a reasonable way to do things is literally painful for me. I feel like I've woken up in the idiocracy when that shit is passed around.
Just a flight attendant. Obviously pilot or the flight attendant could attack and over power the other but it makes the whole thing more complicated then just crashing the plane.
Another odd thing here is that the pilot can lock the other pilot out of the cockpit.
No one is going to get involved in a big project like that unless they're comfortable with the Russians remaining reasonable.
We're not seeing that. So... yet again, russia is fucking themselves out of fiancial opportunities.
Think of where Russia is... the land. It is extremely valuable. And do they use it effectively? Are trains running from China to Europe over Russian rail? Not really. Everyone bypasses them because they're too crazy and stupid to realize that their behavior damns them to being a backwater even though they're in the fucking middle of everything.
We trust the fucking Saudis more than we trust the Russians... and they are basically funding most of the crazy terrorism we're dealing with. That's how little we trust the Russians.
And amongst that, the Russians want to know if we want to build an expensive road through their territory? Why would we do that? That would just give them leverage. They already give us shit about the generally meaningless space launches. They try and exert leverage everywhere. Especially where it is extremely stupid to do it.
I'd love for the Russians to not be fucking retards. I really would. I'd love for us all to be happy hands across the universe. But who is holding their breath for that to happen?
If anything, the areas simply have more water so running out is less likely... and your communities are quite a bit older so things have fixed in place a bit more firmly.
Name a place in Europe that is having such problems with water that the aquifers are being drained and the earth itself is heaving inward... dipping in because all the water has been sucked out of the ground?
There are only a few places in Europe that you could really call a desert and they're all very near large amounts of fresh water.
The water laws and rights in the American south west and in Australia are the most complex in the world. And the reason for it is that water is life in those places.
Imagine owning 100,000 acres of land and it being utterly worthless because there is no water. Add the water and it is priceless. Remove it and it is worthless.
This is something that people in more precipitous regions do not grasp. They take the water for granted. It is something that falls from the sky and comes out of a pipe. Imagine neither of those things happening. The rivers running dry, the sky being bone dry for years, and even the deep wells running dry.
In such regions you plan for the drought that will come.
In California we have a bad one every 30 years or so. Last one was in the 70s. Very bad drought.
They worked out that the solution was to expand infrastructure to weather a drought that could last upwards of 5 to 7 years.
They drew up plans for new dams and aqueducts. New water treatment facilities... etc. And guess what? The fucktard successors looted the funds to pay for stupid projects... mostly for political reasons. And after all those years... the next big drought has come. And these idiots are blaming it on global warming. It was known this was going to happen decades ago. And they sat on it until it was too late. And all you'll hear out of them now are fucking excuses.
And who pays the price? The farmers. Because they're too weak to stop the cities from stealing their water.
Remember that tract of land with and without water? Exactly... everything they have... Gone. Stolen to cover up the incompetent management of the cities.
As to you analogy, the cost of the cable... not the cost of the materials to make it is that price. So your analogy is shit.
As to the gear required. None
As to the time, I believe it took a couple days for a single man to do it while not working especially hard at it.
As to liability, explain how that is relevant?
As to costs for breakage... if the entire cable costs a couple thousand dollars then what is a little kink in that line going to cost? Dollars. Likely less then even ten.
I don't think we are going to have a profitable discussion. You're reacting instead of thinking. I can't reason with someone that isn't even thinking.
Your opinion that I don't know anything about psychology does not mean that my argument is that I don't know anything.
That is YOUR argument.
Very well, please back up your position. Why do you say I know nothing? The burden is on you to provide an argument or evidence to substantiate that position.
So long as you allow local producers to sell to local consumers internally within the country without all the regulation... then fine.
I can understand someone in a different country wanting some checks on the product before import. However, don't tell me that I can't use produce from a local farmer that I've known since I was a small child because the food hasn't gone through some stupid health inspection check that only large farms will have done in the first place.
Because then that local farm has to sell their products to that farm instead. And then the produce gets old and I have to pay more for it. That is fucking bullshit. If I want olive oil from a local farmer, then I'm going to buy it from him.
if the road being public means that people don't have right of way to run cable then there is something wrong.
Here some would say "but what would stop a rat's nest of cables?
Well, first off, most people won't run cable at all. But if someone wanted to, there should be plenty of room for it. By all means, have the local techs actually do it. But there's no reason they can't be tasked for a reasonable fee to do it.
300,000 dollars for 2 miles of cable is not reasonable. And cost quotations like that are quite common from the ISPs. its bullshit.
Slashdot Mirror
And you're an illiterate fucktard because I didn't say he ran 2 miles of coax. I said he ran fiber.
Please put on a bib, sit down at a table of your choosing, and eat all the dicks.
Good day.
Well, the plane actually took awhile to crash and she could at the very least keep the copilot from locking the cockpit.

Is that inaccurate?
This won't change. Sex sells.
I've seen no evidence that if powerful interests want something in europe they won't just take it.

You're saying that because something is not impossible that there is no point attempting to make it less likely.
No one is saying putting the flight attendant there will make it impossible. They're just saying it is a good preventative measure.

The BBC is apparently run by idiots.
I addressed this issue already.
Then why are bank vaults not made of cardboard?
Why do we make them out of concrete and steel?
Don't be stupid. Precautions will be taken. Not to make it impossible... impossible is impossible. The point rather is to make it difficult enough that it becomes much less common.
We're getting about one of these a YEAR at this point. The whole thing could accelerate. Steps need to be taken to change the probability curve.

This isn't a problem with underpaying pilots... and your rather glaring political issues are not contextually applicable in all situations.

... of having a flight attendant stay in the cockpit when one of the pilots goes to the bathroom.
I would have previously said that was too paranoid but apparently not.
No one is going to get involved in a big project like that unless they're comfortable with the Russians remaining reasonable.
