I live in Portland - about 15 miles from work - I think it takes between 30-35 minutes to get in by public transit. I think we have a decentish public transit system. I honestly haven't driven downtown in 8 years.
If you're lucky and drive early enough to miss traffic its about 15 minutes - if you're lucky. If not - its about an hour with traffic.
Not to mention most of these statues were put up in the 20s as a show of force anyhow. It's not like any of those statues actually meant anything important happened at that location.
Would your company want the Daily Stormer as a client? I think this is more along the lines of no company wants them as a customer - if you ran a store that had nazi's in it all the time it wouldn't be good for business.
I've worked for big software companies (fortune 50) that have fired customers - it's their right to do so. Typically it goes along the lines of "you're too much of a pain in the ass".
He was probably exploiting some item dupe bug. Most mmo's are server apps that sit on relatively slow databases so a lot of caching is involved. The exploit fools the app server into depositing some amount into a bank while retaining your existing currency or whatever.
Probably an easier way to handle this long term is simply run reports on how much currency people actually have in game and where its going and close accounts based on that.
Adobe hasn't been adding new features. They fix dozens of security issues every month. You can read about these fixes on their security response blog.
I do think its delusional to think just because something is open source means people are going to arrive and fix bugs. More than likely people will pour over the source to find new exploits to target users who's clients never got the kill command from their browser to stop loading Flash.
Oregon has always been a hub for high tech manufacturing (at least in the past it has) there's a lot of expertise and know-how here. Specifically Wilsonville is where Tektronix used to manufacture a lot of goods (including the Phaser printer) and where Mentor Graphics also spun off from Tek. Nearby Hillsboro is where Intel makes/designs a lot of components as well. Also somewhat nearby (within 2 hours) is where HP-Corvallis manufactured a huge amount of electronics including the HP wristwatch, and most all Calculators/Printers before Carly became CEO. She may have got the investors an extra 8-10% on return by moving everything offshore, but I know a lot of people personally who used to work entry level jobs there (it's not uncommon to have 2 years of technical training at a community college doing curriculum designed by the company and go straight to work assuming you graduate - Intel still does this with Portland Community Colege). FEI also makes Electron Microscopes here (or at least used to)
It's not uncommon to find some esoteric component or part used in making semiconductors at the local Goodwill (last thing I saw was a Polaroid/Tek branded camera used to photograph waveforms for tech writing).
I think the reason it was abandoned is because there's simply not enough market interest in a $20,000 tablet/display:(. It is kind of sad to see these manufacturing jobs leaving the state, but to be honest politicians (especially in DC) really don't think electronics when they think Made in America. I don't think a single high tech item was mentioned by Trump during his made in America PR event this week.
Or he's simply overriding the stations transmitter input - you'd be surprised - at least in the US its very often a low power, clear (not encrypted) microwave relay.
"The lengthy legal affair is likely to have proved expensive for Tesla, which hired London libel specialists Carter-Ruck and a top QC to fight its case from 2011. In the past year alone, Tesla has been ordered to pay £100,000 in costs on account to the BBC."
Trump said many things on his campaign (which btw - hasn't ended), and kept saying those things that the courts used against him repeatedly in interviews and on Twitter. Who would have thought what you say matters?
Some pro advice for Trump - if you're involved in a lawsuit or being investigated of a crime stop saying stuff - because the prosecution will use that against you.
Software bugs are inevitable - especially in OS's that are 30+ years old. You can do all manner of testing, something will be left unturned.
I think the big crime here is the NSA for instead of responsibly disclosing the problem to the developer (Microsoft) they decided to keep it as a future weapon.
One of those spirit of the law vs letter of the law issues. Constantly acting like an alpha with no regard to public well being will be the death of the empire.
But you're right - we live in an age where unless its spelt out in black and white what you can and can't do and there are severe punishments in place - everyone will push that limit to the extreme and those who don't are suckers apparently.
I only said they were responsible for Osama Bin Laden and the mess in Afghanistan. I never said they were responsible for EVERY SINGLE terrorist incident ever.
People get similarly upset when its suggested guys like Osama Bin Laden were made in America.
The US government via the CIA thought it was hilarious to dump Egypt's criminals (which they radicalized via torture) on Afghanistan to essentially troll the Russians.
I worked at Stream International (outsourcing call center) about 10 years ago and you got 8 points. At 0 points they fired you. You lost points for being late, leaving early - stuff like that.
1 point per sick day - unless you had a doctors note, but 10 bucks an hour you didn't have health insurance so typically you worked sick, and you only visited the doctor if you were on deaths door.
Even after they had a tuberculosis outbreak (no I'm not kidding - the CDC got involved and required everyone to be screened) they didn't abandon this system.
Even the most ardent Apple supporter has to admit this isn't the best position to start from (not that I think these home automation devices are of any real use).
If I was into that shit - I wouldn't leave it on the disk and take it to a place that employs high school grads (or not) to fix my PC.
I manage client systems front ends - and one time I was like "why isn't this system patching" and upon investigation I found that the disk was totally full. So I was like - hmm I wonder why it's totally full. It had tons of XXX rated videos on it.
In the course of troubleshooting you are going to find that stuff.
It would be like if you were a mechanic and popped out a door panel in the course of repairing something and found a load of drugs or something.
I mean at some point in your career you're going to have to figure out some problem on your own - and if you cheat during all that high priced training you might as well not even have gone.
Remember when Comcast was throttling Netflix? That really was something that actually happened until Netflix paid up.
Did it cost more to host netflix content on Comcast? No it didn't - because it was being delivered via a peering provider. The only reason Comcast was doing that was because Netflix cuts in on their own streaming services and cable subscriptions.

Machines don't need zero wages. They still need maintenance and often rely on skilled technicians to operate.

You have to ask yourself too - what creates more jobs - coal or tourism?

If the latest "Hollywood Movies" were worth watching...
On Server 2012 R2 I found as a standard user - if I tried to save a file to c:\$mft - I got an access denied error, then the machine bsod'd.
So yeah you could "exploit" this from user space, but I guess the worse it will do is restart the machine/vm.
