On second look, the reasonable expectation doctrine is not actually written into the law. Rather, it is a "with intent" doctrine. So basically, you cannot intentionally record someone without their consent. So, permit me to correct myself.
Here's the text of the law. There are many exceptions for law enforcement and other entities, but there's no exception for people who intentionally record every interaction they may have with another person. Any such intentional recording in PA would require consent.
Chapter 18, PA Consolidated Statutes:
5703. Interception, disclosure or use of wire, electronic or oral communications
Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, a person is guilty of a felony of the third degree if he:
(1) intentionally intercepts, endeavors to intercept, or procures any
other person to intercept or endeavor to intercept any wire, electronic
or oral communication;
(2) intentionally discloses or endeavors to disclose to any other
person the contents of any wire, electronic or oral communication, or
evidence derived therefrom, knowing or having reason to know that the
information was obtained through the interception of a wire, electronic
or oral communication; or
(3) intentionally uses or endeavors to use the contents of any wire,
electronic or oral communication, or evidence derived therefrom,
knowing or having reason to know, that the information was obtained
through the interception of a wire, electronic or oral communication.
You have to feed those cattle enough food to produce that energy, and because the Laws of Thermodynamics are not subject to legislative decree or even the most well-intentioned wishes, it's still a loser.

PA is an all-party consent state for audio recording. If you record someone without their knowledge or consent, you can be charged with a felony under the State's anti-wiretapping law if the person you recorded can show they had a reasonable expectation of privacy.
If I have a position that requires a college degree, it's not up to me to pay for the candidate to go get that degree. It is similarly not on me to pay for people to maintain certifications that are required for the position.
Generally, however, I don't mind employees doing things on my time as long as it doesn't interfere with their work, or cause slippage in the schedule. If someone wants to spend a few hours per week on my dime studying material that makes them better at their job, I see that as a good investment.
Why do you think other humans are the only possible adversaries? Why do you think guns and knives are the only weapons that might be used against you? You ever been hit in the head with a baseball bat? Wait, I think I know the answer to that.
Say you are out hiking and happen across a Grizzly bear shitting in the woods? There are huge expanses of wilderness where you may need to defend yourself from wildlife.
How the hell do you cook in Canada if you don't have knives, anyway?
I know to you leftists that humans are public enemy number 1, but there are an infinite number of situations where a firearm is an appropriate tool for self defense.
I live in a townhouse/condo so obviously I can't put an antenna outside, but my attic is just big enough for a 2/6/23cm vertical and a 20m dipole. I haven't been on the air in a great long time though...
I don't get it. When I see pictures of people with guns, I immediately try to discern the make and model, then go to the internet to get the specs to see if it's something I'd want to buy.
The fact that the majority of the world has denied the human right of self defense to its citizens is the only thing I can think of that would be a cause of stress with respect to guns.
Not the last we will ever hear of this...

As long as there is a higher court to appeal to, SCO and its minions will not likely give up. After all, they have litigation investors to answer to. The sunk-cost fallacy is lost on these guys.
Heh... I remember doing my graduate numerical electromagnetics research using a DEC/Alpha that performed in the MFLOP range... Boy I wonder if I could run all my old FORTRAN77 code on this thing!:p
Most companies have an AUP that forbids personal use of company network resources, and also doing things from company IP addresses that would make it appear as if you spoke on behalf of the company.
The network belongs to the Company, and they have every right to dictate how you may and may not use it. I see no problem with this.
Soft errors from Alpha particles are only induced in DRAM. They do not affect SRAM or FLASH, which is what most mission-critical controllers use. Those that don't use an EDAC to detect and correct single and sometimes multibit errors.
What is morally wrong is telling someone with a disease or defect that they are not allowed to pursue curing themselves. People should have sole dominion over their own bodies, and if someone who is colorblind wants to see colors, it is not within the rights of The State to tell them they can't.
I have 5 D-Link DWL-3200AP access points with WDS on my property. One of those is connected to the wired LAN, but the units I use also support spanning tree in case I wanted to have a multiple-attached network.
The whole setup works great, although occasionally one of them will lose its mind and need to be reflashed.
First of all, the Government never follows its own laws. Laws are for the lowly subjects to be bound by, not the government itself. The government itself is not bound by any law, not even the Constitution, which it has pissed on almost since the day it was ratified.
I have not answered the census yet, mainly because of the April 1st thing. But, when I do, they will get the number of people in my household, and that's it.

Another true point, indeed. However, a well-designed PCI board will be largely immune, and in a modern PC, there is very little down in audio frequencies anymore. Even DC-DC converters run into the several MHz these days.
I've never been able to detect any AF noise from the PC in the two PCI cards I have (10 channels each).
That is what I did with a small group of friends from the neighborhood. We have 112 townhome units and a board with 4 officers. Three of us ran for the board and won our respective elections, and now we live in a more free neighborhood. We tore out the childrens playground and installed a dog park. We got rid of the swimming pool that cost $30K/year to maintain and was only used by the illegal daycare facility that one of the residents was running (which we also got rid of). We got rid of all the slimy backroom deals the former board had cut with their various family members' businesses (landscaping, snow removal, garbage, etc). We cut the cost of operating the property by 50% in the first year just by getting rid of the kickbacks.
