Completely agree that "Windows gives alert after alert after alert and how can you know which ones to believe unless you're a "techie"?". But SMART is not one of the alerts I trust a lot. HD errors are random, and just because you got a bunch of them, it doesn't mean that soon you'll get more. It may happen, or not. SMART can tell you when it won't be able to recover the next error (because it is out of sectors to map), but not when everything will fail. As always, keep backups, and if you aren't on hight availability stuff, you can ignore SMART at will.
As an anedocte, one of the disks on the computer I'm using now has the SMART "That disk will probably fail in a week" by five years now.
It seems you may need PortaPutty;) You can keep your key hashes on a shared disk (or pen drive), and only see that screen 10 times, instead of 100.
Also, it may help to know that the warning for a changed key (like a man in the middle) is different from the warning from an unknown key (like in a new server), and you can't just type 'yes' to make it connect.
You are avoiding chairs going from outside to inside. On a second note, all the people that said to chairproof windows before firing Ballmer get it wrong. Chairproofing windows is a reason to start throwing chairs, what you need is a very long firing meeting.
If you occasionally get that, legitimately because you lose your key fingerprint hashes
Just curious here, how would he lose the fingerprint hashes? I'd expect that, except if he consciently changes his server key, replaces the entire ssh configuration, or is victim of a man in the middle, he would never see that warning.
For a while I hoped AMD would play nice with FOSS. Hell, it looks like it is their only chance of surviving, but still, their CXX people doesn't seem to agree.
Looks like a tabletop fusion wanabe. It is made of laser, that could teoreticaly fit a smaler volume, and pelets of deuterium, that is quite easy to gather from nature. It may quite well lead to fusion machines so easy to create that the governemnt couldn't hope to control. Of course, that is more than 20 years on the future:)
Anyway, does anybody know what are the results of deuterion fusion (is it He4 or it irradiates something)? And about the pelets composed of deuterium and tritium, I didn't know one could solidify tritium.
"So the adds they should show you would go something like this in a jpg or animated gif (that is not a standard banner size)."
They'd better use those non-standard format, on-site, image-embebed ads for all the users. They don't because of economical reasons, and those reasons don't scale with the number of users. Advertizers won't adapt their ads just for you, you are not that important.
By the way, it seems that my browser is unique. Locales gave them a lot of hints, but version numbers and fonts are the worst problem. I'm quite amazed why most people don't use the same fonts I do, I simply didn't instaled any one of them by hand.
Your tought experiment still increases entropy (number of particles wouldn't increase by itself), and I see nothing wrong with it. So, yeah, you could run around the carnot cycle by not using an ideal gas. That isn't exactly news, since fuel cells aready do that.
But, on practice, most of the work on a hight temperature explosion motor is done by the increase on temperature, not by the increase on the number of particles. Low temperature motors may be different, but they aren't practical. Turning the liquid fuel into gas can lead to even bigger efects, but it is still easier to work with highter temperatures, and completely turn your fuel into gas so it you can make it explode easier.
So, to be concise, nearly everything we do on our daily lifes consist of different arrangements of electrical charges. And, besides nuclear forces and gravity, we have no energy storage technic that doesn't rely on electrical fields.
The original statement is tecnicaly correct, but I still fail to see how it is limiting.

Yep, that is the same for Putty.
No

My computer came with a MS made breakout-like game at the 80's that was great. They didn't make only compilers...
But BASIC was already lame. I guess it was lame at the 70's too. Too bad I didn't know any better by the time.
Some universities can, there are some huge lab-based companies out of computing... There are a few cases, but it is not the norm.
Want a still better idea? Keep ssh open, but forbid passwords.
Voila! No Chinese computers accessing your network, and you still have a secure channel from the outside.
I don't understand why the BSD folks still think the default configuration of ssh is secure enough. Inertia, maybe, or backward compatibility?
Please, somebody mod the AC up.

You can install new keys via SSH. No need for physical access. And changing your access key won't generate a KEY CHANGE warning.
And, by the way, the question says that the ssh server is on his home. He won't have problems physicaly accessing the server on a daily basis.
Or they could just release te specs...

Yep, or Roadster was making no money or there were some strings attached to that DoE loan.
It's interesting that I come here exactly looking for a calculator that could handle units and be used from a CLI. Gnuplot integration is a nice plus.
As I said, not on the next 20 years. But the known physics doesn't constrain it to huge buildings, only current engineering.
I'm currently looking for a X client for Windows. I'll give Xming a try.
Except that there are no replies, what rules out all the actualy useful uses of IRC.
On a second tought, that is a bad analogy.

My elinks instalation is unique. What is no surpize, since my Firefox is unique too.

I don't remember ever seeing a XKCD about how there is a XKCD about every thing... Maybe tomorrow.

Not with infinite memory anyway. And yours also doesn't have infinite memory.
A smaler memory computer may or may not be able to simulate a larger memory computer, that depends on what the larger memory computer is doing.
But if two of your enemies fight, which of them you align with? (I'm not saying that it is the case here.)
