It's closer to a big window with blinds. If you don't close the blinds you can't complain about people being able to stand on the sidewalk and see.
Just because the window is a fancy box you plug into the internet it isn't my fault you didn't read how to close the blinds. No one is physically entering my house. I can still call you from my cell phone while standing our street.
That's exactly the machine I was thinking about. Before I signed up for the Mars trip I would want a dozen cargo ships safely leaving and arriving before I put humans there.
What about stuff that can't be controlled by the human? Some modern aircraft only fly because they have a computer doing most of the hard math for keeping the craft stable. The human's input is more or less a 'guide' to follow but a lot of the actuators are in the end controlled by some closed loop controller.
Good, just in time for my Kickstarter ODB-II/CAN datalink "test simulator for TESTING PURPOSES ONLY". Everyone will plug them together and toss them in the trunk.
Those debit 'protections' are when you run it as a debit card with PIN. Almost all debit cards can also be run as credit cards. When they are run as 'signature' credit cards credit card protections apply.
Never use your PIN anywhere but the ATM. Most especially not on any ole card reader you're handed in a restaurant. Most places assume debit and if you hit 'cancel' or 'change payment type' you can always get it to run as a credit card.
To expand. If it's a script it has a script handler. If it has a script handler it can be rewritten.
There's no reason they couldn't add a few features from newer scripting languages to enable forking of functions or "own fun". If the kernel (the one running said script with said script handler) supports multiple cores/threads it could easily be the more modularized, etc.
Or you buy something that can scale. You notice you're getting a bunch of server errors, throw more servers on it. There are plenty of companies that can do this now.
Anyone want to guess the age of the poster? Because while "Gmail gets a lot of spam" may be true for what he's used to it's nowhere bad as it used to be.
You want to see spam? Register a domain and create a catch-all address.
"Tinker a bit with it" and "Figuring out which network card has proper support in FreeBSD" are worlds apart. I don't expect it to know what VLANs I want but just being able to use VLANS makes it better than a $100 router from Walmart.
Do you know how nice they play with their own access points? I''m probably going to buy a used Nortel 5510-24T. Supposedly you can find them for $100 used because you can't get service contracts for them anyway.
That's what I'm thinking. I'd love to tinker with pfSense but with a kid on the way and a new job I don't have hours to dick around with settings. Ubiquity looks like a nice one stop shop for everything for less than a grand.
I was excited to see a good discussion about software/hardware required to route 1 Gbps. How many people are running pfsense or Linux router with Google Fiber? What do people have for wireless? I want to separate my router and my AP. Consumer routers never seem to actually perform up to theoretical speeds or have problems with a large number of clients.
But instead it's simple answer: Install wires. Do people think that wires don't exist any more? I bought my current house because the basement has drop ceilings and I can wire everything in a day. Wireless is great for browsing the web or watching some videos. But when I need something backed up or want to edit something from a network drive nothing beats good ole ethernet.
"Education" doesn't have to be college. Going into a trade after high school is just as much of an 'education' as college is.
There's no reason you can't do an a la carte education. You like history? Sign up for a 5-10 week course offered nights. Cooking, music, food, etc. There are educational opportunities everywhere.
Part of the problem is people have been told that if you don't go to college straight out of highschool you're a failure.
It'd be much better if they took 2-3 years off in a vocational rotational program of some sort. Rotate them through a lot of trades. If they hate the trades maybe they'll have matured enough to try college again or maybe they'll find a job they like.
You can go through life with just vocational training an certification with a nice paying job. Just keep in mind you will be the first to get axed and vs the low experienced degree'd person.
No you won't. When a ship builder is in trouble he isn't going to fire his welders or plumbers. Half of the people currently in college probably shouldn't be there and should be studying an actual trade instead.
What good is a Psychology BS? There are a ton of college graduates that aren't STEM and are currently looking for jobs. They are the ones bitching that "You all told us to go to college, now what?"
"doing well in school is consistently the strongest predictor of doing well in school"
And if they aren't going to perform well in school maybe they shouldn't be going to school?
The US has a huge shortage in the trades because we stopped telling high school students to go into plumbing, welding, electrical, etc. Suddenly the 'poor' student that would have excelled in something hands on like a trade were told "Go to college! You'll make more. Just pick something you like."
It's why we have a ton of "college graduates" that can't find a job because we don't need more Psychology majors with only a BS.
Slashdot Mirror
Is there a good *BSD that has figured out binary package management yet?
Not that I don't love being able to compile everything from scratch but I've stuck with debian for so long because apt-get "just works".
I think in 8 years of use I've had a handful of issues with it (or aptitude/dpkg) where as I've had many more with Windows dependencies.
I want one in the garage.
I also want to name it Jarvis.
"Jarvis, what is the closest english size to 13 mm"
"Jarvis, remind me to order part number 132-2343".

Close your damn blinds.

StubHub should do a promotion where everyone here can list their ticket and everyone else can bid on them.

I think after doing something that dumb you should probably sit in time out for a while and think about it.

All still from one script.
I want to know why no one has made an ELM327 replacement.
With CAN, USB, Bluetooth all becoming ubiquitous I think it's time to update the old ODB chip.
Or you buy something that can scale. You notice you're getting a bunch of server errors, throw more servers on it. There are plenty of companies that can do this now.
Notes.
Because "No Va" and "Nova" are different like "Notable" and "No Table".
If something was advertised as being 'notable' I wouldn't think that it had no table.
Anyone want to guess the age of the poster? Because while "Gmail gets a lot of spam" may be true for what he's used to it's nowhere bad as it used to be.

Both if which are almost twice the price of the Ubiquity.
Firewall/NAT as well? I'm only going to pay for 1 IP from Comcast Business.

You know that's not how it works, right?
