Dunno. At least in older versions of Windows someone had to attack and succeed before information could be taken out of it. With Windows 10, the OS takes a short cut and just starts sending information out...

Programmer/geek/sysadmin type gets transported to a world where magic works like programming... He even creates his own daemon servant named "backslash". Was available free online from baen books for a while...
Pull it down to your local machine either via pop3 or just moving messages from your imap inbox to a local folder.
Then whenever you like, archive that off somewhere. You could even convert maildir format to mbox and then run something like mhonarc on it to make web pages of 'em all wtih indexes and such, and just archive off the HTML onto a CD/DVD/whatever.
All that said, why are you keeping it all? I've kept all of my work related email for 18 years now (same employer) on my local machine. I've gone thru a few things more than a year old just for giggles, and one time I needed a license number that was locked up in a filing cabinet but didn't have my keys that day... But mostly an email that is 2 months old or older just isn't needed (by me, for my work, your needs probably vary).
This. In addition, the ad networks like this because they can build a profile on you. I've never had an issue with a side bar or banner ad or whatever being served up from teh same machine as the content I am reading.
Of course, if it gets too bad, since 99% of my web browsing is *reading* I can go back to a plain old text based browser like elinks
Live in the country so no neighbors really. Took our kids to the big event at a local zoo and then at dark we hit our small towns main street event. Between the two about 10k kids under 10, plus the older kids and parents/grand parents etc
I can see where a boot camp type course - a week or two of really in-depth work on a particular language or technology "stack" can be helpful, IF the folks offering it have qualified teachers AND the folks participating in it are experienced in other parts of software development.
But as a "I want to learn how to program"... no, not good.
But can a verb have its "use by others" legally restricted ? (copyright/patent/trademark/whatever)
I can understand a slight possibility if it is a term that becomes a verb (ie, googling) but pinning has been in use for ages as a "stick something in place somewhere" type word/action...
I believe that there is/was a magnifying sleeve for those little tiny insulin syringes that a nurse invented so the scale on the syringe could be read easier, resulting in more precise insulin dosing...
And of course, seeing if the seeds they sent back out are still viable is good too. I mean, we're talking backups here. And part of a good backup is knowing that your backup is restorable and leaves things the way you expect after they are restored.
I would imagine that a small subset of it still taught in SERE school as well - finding your way at night when you are ERE'ing would be rather helpful, and it is almost guaranteed that you wouldn't have a GPS... or sextant, piles of charts, etc
He didn't... But I was querying him about his choice for vegan-ism.
Beer? Yah, yeast don't count.
What about your leather jacket, etc? It was before this "experience" and the effect of him purchasing it had already rippled out, no longer a concern.
"Well, what if you hit a deer on your way home from work?"
"If it were dead or totally disabled I'd cut its throat, bleed it out, and grill it up - no use in wasting. It isn't *my* choice to hit the deer - rather, it is the deer's choice to jump the road in front of my truck"
Of course, if you want a gore movie of a deer being hit by a car, I'm sure there are more than a couple on u-toob
The only non-pretentious dietary vegan (she still buys and wears leather, etc) I know switched in an effort for her and her husband to get off cholesterol meds. It has worked for them, but yeah, they eat a lot of "replacement meat-like products". As was said upthread, why bother if you are just going to eat stuff that (poorly) imitates what you no longer eat by choice?
One other NPV (who is no longer vegan, or even vegetarian - back to omnivore-hood!) I know did it to become more conscious of the world around him and how he interacts with it - he went vegan for 2 years or so... but even in the middle of it he said that if he hit a deer with his car he'd happily take it home and eat it - he had already interacted with it, it was no longer a choice of "do or do not" and why waste perfectly good meat?
Huh? Is there some rule that anything symphonic must have been written over 100 years ago?
Good music, performed by professionals, should be enjoyable, no matter where the music originally came from. The London Symphony Orchestra did a great job with the Mario Brothers music - https://www.youtube.com/watch?... - does it not have any cultural value since it was created for a video game?
What about the soundtracks from various movies, like Star Wars?

Thinking you can take a object as an external input from anything but a trusted source is asking for trouble.
I think you mean to say

Anyone have that XKCD about Bobby Tables handy?

elinks is better, it can be compiled with both mouse and image support...

Track your speed, etc. as well as make sure you stay on your planned route
The fact that it existed as a default for sooo long though... I mean, at what point in time did that seem like a Good Idea ?

Or a BOFH or his PFY thinking the worker is in fact a member of Management or perhaps Accounting ...
Or perhaps Duck Dodgers in the 24th and a Half Century!
According to a quick google, the average framer makes $20/hr. Electricians or plumbers bump that up to about $25/hr, or 50k/year.
More google searching reveals the average construction manager makes about $80k, as does an architect ...
$30/hr is about 60k/yr. I don't see where any justification is needed.

Mint pulled ahead of Ubuntu in my mind when Ubuntu went to Unity/Gnome 3 and Mint still had MATE ...

No.. .not combining, like the "traditional" Kashmir, but rather a recomposition.
