Disclaimer: I read this stuff but I know nothing more than that.
I change take the backup media every day and take it home with me. At one site, I have thirty (3) external USB drives.
At another, I can only keep two weeks of daily backup to take offsite. It's a law firm and I have schooled them that we are not bound by law to retain lots of stuff, but we are bound by law to give up anything we have.
I am interested in this because I just recently opted out of LTO tape backup for external USB hard drives. For 19 years, I have changed out the tapes/drives myself and took them home with me every day excluding holidays and stuff.
When the fire alarm goes off, I grab the backups and run. When we evac for hurricanes, I grab the backups and run.
Obviously, this scheme doesn't protect the Firm directly from something like CryptoWall 2.0, but I switched to external USB drives for one main reason:
Should the building pancake or should the sprinklers go off (inject disaster here), with LTO, I'd have to purchase a compatible drive before getting started on restoring.
I did, back when Moby Dick was a minnow, have to do a disaster recovery with pre-LTO tapes and the new drive and old tape were not quite in synchronicity and I had to buy a surplus tape drive to get things back up.
Just addressing the LTO/USB drive (with daily offsite): Do you see a problem with that?
And as long as we allow the state to have tanks, grenades, smart missiles, weaponized helicopters, fighter jets, aircraft carriers, and stuff, then it's possible none of the above will matter.
As to whether those serving would really take part, I'm not too optimistic that that's a self-solving problem, as it's happened (and happens today) in plenty of countries around the world.
Seems fair, for some. Those hawking the 2nd amendment on the grounds that we must be able to overthrow the government are treasonous and unpatriotic.
Men and women have died defending the right of some people to be stupid.
You left out the part about weapon inequity in that many small arms don't stand a chance against a smart bomb. I am not advocating government overthrow... just the opposite.
I'm for arming each citizen for personal protection. Those advocating we arm ourselves to defend against a corrupt government need to shut up and quit being stupid.
They belong to the class of people still clinging to the hope that the South will rise again and that Texas will secede from the Union.
Of course, if you believe gun-rights are a fundamental right, or that they're necessary for protection against the state, then it's possible that none of the above will matter to you.
Bold id mine.

Yeah, the mall came to regret the gun shop. However, while they had a no-open-carry policy, they did not object to weapons in carrying cases. They just looked the other way. They did allow store owners with concealed handgun licenses (CHL) to carry between the parking lot and straight to their places of business.
This guy had a CHL.
As you can appreciate, what with the news stories about gun-toting killers, the mall patrons shit their britches when this guy came in with an AR-15 strapped to his back.. I really am surprised a concealed weapon owner didn't shoot the goof ball.
Rabid gun rights people yell their heads off about the right to carry, but they don't bother to go to classes and stuff to get a CONCEALED handgun license.
Why the fucking obsession with open carry?
If a situation arose at that mall or some other business where a gunman went nuts, who's he gonna take out first?
Slashdot Mirror
... Democrats.
This.
And, if we put profits first, but make that "We The People"'s profit, net neutrality is not a partisan subject.
No, not really.
We are the gatekeepers for our people and we need to be in the loop on all these things.
Please provide your email address [1] and an encrypted file [2] that has been encrypted by CryptoLocker. This portal will then email you a master decryption key along with a download link to our recovery program that can be used together with the master decryption key to repair all encrypted files on your system.
Found it at this site.

Thank you.
Wrong post, perhaps?

So does this mean we agree that the "overthrow the gubmint" peeps is stupid and stuff?
You get a redo.
They are out $5,000,000 according to TFS.
A 5 million dollar theft is a reason why BTC can't be an answer.
Did you even read TFS? How about TFT?
Thanks for sharing your microcosmic world experience, but how does that further the dialog?
And the citation that enumerates, in precise numbers, is where?

The word, "all" is hyperbole. There is a concern that Social Security will need fixing before 2030.
There's no way in hell "And all Social Security does is pay out," there have been NO reports that SS has stopped payroll deductions.
Oh, the judicial branch of the FBI.
I do get to make up my own definitions if you don't know the difference between bullshit and wild honey.

This.
Trained police officers sometimes make mistakes, no matter how much they try not to. That's the price of being human.
What nobody in public places needs is amateurs with guns.
So, no citation, just bullshit answer.
Really?
What historical event can we reference by way of citation?
In what way? Nobody is pulling out of investments.
