In regards to whole disk encryption, I think that is great also. However, it's still difficult for your average user. I think it's more common and less of a red flag now. My problem with whole disk encryption is that it's usually integrated into the logon. You just need to leave your pc running, and it's defeated. I think the separate vm provides a sort of reminder and encourages you to be more conscious of operational security, which is where most people screw up. I also like the portability.
Well, the problem with just a hidden container, is that you often don't realize where things are being written by programs you use. It's easy to end up with something in an insecure location, or sitting in you hibernation or suspend file. With the whole OS encapsulated, you can more easily contain it. You can also have it use a vpn or tor network, so the main pc can't listen to it's traffic. The only big problem in this situation, would be keyloggers, or some sort of malware that is taking screen shots periodically. You can guard against key loggers by using an onscreen keyboard, but the other is something you will have to avoid with opsec.
Well, if you have a loaf of bread, your good. If you have 100 loafs of bread, you might have to give up 25. If you have 10,000 you might have to give up 4000.
Trust me, it's a better deal then having 10,000 poor people come to take you 100 loaves.
Just load your laptop like usual, and run your vm from inside an encrypted veracrypt folder. Put another vm with some games (so you have a reason to have the vm host running). Most investigators won't spot the vm's, most of the ones that do, won't spot the encrypted ones. The ones that do spot the encrypted one, won't be able to get into it.
I doubt Amazon is negotiating with delivery drivers. Maybe if there was some sort of organization that represented a larger portion of delivery drivers.
Yes, but inversely, doing away with taxes does not decrease prices. Collecting taxes at the corporate level is efficient and should be done fairly, not gamed the way it is now.
Let's be clear, the above outlined system includes an element of luck and an element of tax fraud. You are playing audit roulette. Paying yourself a 40k salary anywhere outside of Bumfuck, MS is going to result in penalties and once they latch onto that, expect a majority of your deductions to get challenged. The level of record keeping you will need to maintain this, legally, is way more then anyone expects. Or, you can do a sole proprietor, pay your taxes, and still make good money.
The only real reason to incorporate, is to protect yourself from lawsuits or if you intend to work with partners who muddy the financial water.
Well, the average rural american thinks teachers with regular paychecks, a car less then 10 years old, and a small house is too hifalutin and obviously makes too much money.
Most of the charter school implementations I've seen allow choice once a year, so your wasting a year at best to discover how bad it is. That's aside from the fore mentioned issue of only the best kids leaving. You end up with crappy public schools that only have the dregs of students attending, then a tier of charter schools that are operating on inertia, where the parents are too busy to notice they have nosedived or they are concentrating on some other metric, like band or sports. Finally you have the core of great students gifted with great parents attending a great school. Sounds like a great way to waste money and end up with the exact same situation, only you are insulating the top students and cementing an elitist attitude, exactly what government policy should support, right?
Every child deserves the best opportunity, and public schools are the only way to do that efficiently. We can't just write kids off because they have shitty parents.
Most poor-performing students have one thing in common: they don't give two shits about education because their parents taught them not to care.
Most poor-performing students have one thing in common: they don't have the same opportunities as other students due to economic or social problems and an internalized lack of self worth. FTFY.
Verizon does something different, but equally sleazy. My wife has 1GB which she never goes over. as soon as she hits 50%, they start sending her texts she can click to upgrade her plan. I've done the math, and upgrading to 2GB doesn't make sense unless she goes over 3 months in a row. There can be one day left with half her cap left and they will continually bug her to upgrade.
It's the classic "my way or the highway" spirit that has made America Great. A proud tradition from Jackson to McCarthy to Hoover to Cheney and Rumsfeld.
America's law enforcement community is peopled with absolutely the wrong types. The worst have risen to the top and fixing this problem will take at least a generation. We can't let this sort of press release reporting sway us from a just and fair legal system.
Yeah, I have a linux server that has a vpn for torrenting, I just share everything out via samba and watch it on an old Wii, using wii-mc (homebrew). I also use netflix and route it through the vpn to increase my library. flixsearch.io lets me see what's on netflix in different countries and I just map my vpn accordingly.
I find alot of things that are yahoo or amazon exclusives in the US, are available in other countries on netflix, so I just take a short VPN vacation.
It's already illegal for any aircraft (with very, very few exceptions, like police SWAT operations) to release (let alone shoot) anything from any type of aircraft, period.

Yeah, I was just recently looking at emailed baby announcements fro 2004. Still sitting in my gmail.
excellent idea... I'm going to have all my data copied to a drive that will be installed in my headstone with a USB connection.

I would say that's unnecessary for 99% of use cases, and defeats the purpose.
That's why the US is a republic, not a true democracy.

The first time I tried that PE junk I joked to my wife the PE stood for placebo effect.

I'm thinking of something about fighting the last war instead of the next war...
I don't know about you, but our noisy generators are tested weekly.
Have you checked out the netflix selection when you are on vacation in europe... via vpn? Check out flixsearch.io

You know, you can password protect pdf's. Sallie Mae used to send me password protected PDF's all the time. I use pdfcreator to make them.

really...
Thank you, from another nice guy.
All we can do is try to do good works where we can and make the world a little bit better.
So, your still putting 45 to 50 hours into a 40 hour workweek...
Man up and admit you can do the job in 7.5 to 8 hours a day.
