Actually another option (in the medium to long term) would be Edinburgh, especially if Scotland leaves the UK in order to stay in the EU (which it will).
People don't realise it but Edinburgh is a major financial centre in the EU (beaten possibly only by London and Frankfurt).
It's not going to be plain sailing inside the UK if we vote to leave the EU.
(Note to self - I must plan to move to Scotland while I can!)
Unfortunately I don't think you're alone in thinking we should go, and I'm in the UK.
We (or, let's be honest, our government) haven't been good team players. That does not mean that all us citizens don't want the EU to develop and thrive. Yes, there are a large number of my fellow citizens who vote UKIP, but many more who don't.
The matter is going to be cleared up in a referendum, hopefully sooner rather than later. What I would like the rest of the EU to do is budge not one inch to Cameron. Give him nothing. Make the referendum not one on any proposed reforms, but one on the EU 'as-is'. OK, he will have to campaign for an exit, and if we then vote for an exit (most probably), then you get your wish and we'll be out. Then by all means continue with the EU project without us (but be willing to welcome Scotland when they leave the UK, as they will if the UK votes to leave the EU). Go forward with the fantastic vision that originally started the whole thing.
However, what I hope is that even with no reforms, we will vote to stay in (unlikely I admit). After we have agreed to stay in will be the time to think about any reforms needed (which there may be), but at least we'll (the UK) be committed partners rather than wreckers on the edge of things.
I understand the frustration, but some of us in the UK are pro-Europeans and would like to be together with the rest of our European neighbours in a vibrant, dynamic and strong EU.
Yes, but how many members of the US House Science Committee (or even the US Congress) have been to the places? Indeed, how many of them know where Russia, China, India and Europe are?
So the suicide was purely down to mental illness rather than the revenge porn? I suppose it is similar to deliberately giving peanuts to someone with a peanut allergy - It was their peanut allergy that killed them of anaphylactic shock, not the person who gave them the peanuts!
(</sarcasm> - in case anyone was wondering!)
Actually, you don't say whether you think revenge porn should be illegal in the US, only that victims (mainly women) should be 'man' enought to put up with it!
(I'm pleased to say that in England and Wales (I'm in England) it is already illegal - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-31429026. Scotland and Northern Ireland are considering it.)
I should point out that four are planned for Wales, and only two for England. Wales != England, although both are parts of the UK, along with Scotland and Northern Ireland. Thus also England != UK.
Still, as you point out, the coastline numbers are quite large. See How long is the UK coastline? for details. The figure for the UK is given as about 19,491 miles (31,368 km). That said, this figure also include all the islands, so isn't just the mainland.
Indeed, I've never understood why there are numerous versions of Ubuntu. (Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, etc). Why not just get plain old Ubuntu and do "apt-get install de-of-choice" (where de-of-choice is KDE, XFCE or LXDE, etc.)?
The answer of course is that, perhaps, possibly, maybe, things are just a wee bit more complicated than that!
Running both LMDE XFCE and Xubuntu 14.04 LTE I'll look forward to when this hits the repos. Unfortunately I'll probably have to change Distros to use it as LMDE is changing to using Debian Stable (Jessie) and it probably won't be backported. Similarly for Xubuntu and it probably won't be in Xubuntu LTE until 16.04.
I really ought to change to Arch or something!
That said,I'm pleased it's still being developed. I was worried that it was going to fade away and I'd have to start using Mate, Cinnamon or even Unity.
According to the second link, the buffer overflow occurs when using a strcpy;
resbuf->h_name = strcpy (hostname, name);
In my (admittedly limited) recent c coding I've used strlcpy rather than strcpy. Is there a good reason not to use this (or strncpy) in place of strcpy?
I'm a European, British, English citizen of the UK and European Union (if that makes sense). I'm rare in that I'm one of the few people in the UK who also feels European. As to age, let's say I remember the last European referendum we had in 1975 (although too young to vote).
I did think about saying 'British' rather than 'European'. (I only use "English" internally to the UK, to distinguish myself from, say, being Scottish or Welsh. It makes me cringe when people use "England" when they mean "Britain" or "The United Kingdom"). It says both "European Union" and "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" on my passport.
I had to look up MLK Blvd on Google (I'm European). My inner visual image I got when first reading the scenario in your original post had both crack dealer and hooker being white! I hope that's not being racist.
I get the sense that the systemd developers haven't had much experience of using Linux (or anything) in a production environment. That's fair enough, it's not their speciality. However, it should be incumbent upon them to accept feedback from those who do have that experience, and adjust systemd accordingly. I get the impression that is not happening.
In other words they've guessed the Use Cases, not captured them.
I think one of the biggest missed opportunities for Linux was not coming up with a suitable replacement for XP.
Those on XP (and still on XP) just want (and had) something that 'worked'. A suitable Linux distro, that 'looked' and 'felt' like XP, and was as stable as XP (SP3), but could run the latest 'application' software like XP (browser, email client, office package) could've gained traction. Something rock-solid, stable and safe. Unfortunately not to be.
(And I don't know why you were labelled 'flamebait' either.)
Just curious, but what if you want to look at the log in Windows? (you may have a dual-boot system with Windows, for instance). How do you do this? What Windows application do you use?
For text logs, no problems. (I would use Notepad++).
Text files might take too long to read (and that's a value judgement), but even if true, that's better than not being able to read them at all.
So what software is available for reading systemd binary journal files on Windows? Saying "write your own" is a cop-out.
Plenty of applications for reading text files though. Notepad++ is my favourite. (I've even got it running in Linus using Wine!)
For systemd to truly replace existing init systems, it needs stand-alone journal-readers for other (non-systemd) systems. Ideally, the systemd people should write these - they're the ones forcing through the binary logs.
This is good news. Now we know the underlying cause for 65% of cancers, Big Pharma can start the necessary research on creating a drug to prevent Bad Luck.
I'm sure any viable drug would be a best seller (for those lucky enough to be able to afford it).
Remembering back to the dim and distant past, yes us boys read the Hobbit (and the Lord of the Rings itself) when that age. Also, as I remember, reading interest was kept alive by the works of such authors as Sven Hassel and Ian Fleming. Just about readable with just enough sex and violence to keep us interested!
Of course, we got to know of these latter authors from older boys, not from teachers!
Not sure why this is being modded 'Funny'. Quite a few 'environmentalists' are starting to revisit Nuclear Power, e.g. George Monbiot (A regular columnist in the Guardian newspaper).
Personally, I can't help thinking that technology may have advanced since we last built nuclear reactors. Certainly I think any IT would be more advanced - just don't connect to the internet!

Yes, but don't underestimate how much our intransigence really pisses them off!

The BBC also show the actual dress:

I see white and gold, although the actual dress is blue and black.
To be fair, the asterisk substitutions were put there by the editor, not the original submitter.

(OK, you may get an error due to a truncated copy, but isn't that is easier to spot and deal with than a potential buffer overflow?)

Nobody speaks it.
I don't know. I think it still gets used on an ad hoc basis.
The big trouble here, is that a disturbingly large number of Muslims hold opinions that are complete anathema to open and free Western societies.
Then again, this is matched by the disturbingly large number of non-Muslims who make unfounded generalised comments about Muslims!

There are also commercial products you can buy. As you're running a mainframe, you should be able to afford one of these.
Hope this helps.
As it happens I do run PostgreSQL (albeit just to play with). The data files I can't read in a text editor. However the log file I can!
