Hopefully, you've taken the concept of 'backup' to heart. It turns out to be relatively simple to create a more traditional installation environment for 10.7.
Unpaid internships are also mandatory in the medical field. Every potential nurse and doctor works hundreds of hours in hospitals before they're allowed to graduate. I only wish they did this for engineers and scientists, I would have loved the break from the books to get my hands dirty.
Not exactly. At least in the US, 'internship' is the first year after medical school. It's more of a post doctoral position (you have your MD) than an internship in the fashion that is being used in TFA. And, at least in the US, you get paid. Not much, but you get paid. Nurses in general do not have a similar situation. STUDENT nurses and medical STUDENTS work hundreds of hours in hospitals without pay but that's somewhat different.
Today's Slashdot Pedantry brought to you by the makers of some nasty drug that you probably don't need.
Yeah, if there is evidence that they took those steps to circumvent the filter. Is there anybody on Slashdot who isn't already running his/her own DNS server at home?
Well I'm not running my own DNS servers and I am not quite sure why I should be. My local ISP isn't doing anything weird and there is Google and OpenDNS as backup (as well as numerous others). Not being snarky or anything, but why would I want to do that? Seems like one more thing that I would have to maintain and one without any clear benefit.
when _we_ should do all we can to protect ourselves and our community from those who want to tramp on the values that founded this nation.
Cool. That means we can carry loaded firearms in the cabin to shoot the perps (and you, the jerk who has reclined his seat all the way back and is trying to play air guitar AND karoke with his iPhone. Yes, you.)
The Israel's airport security model is very effective. But it is very difficult to follow in the US..
Yes. Because 1) Israel has only one major airport (Ben Gurion) and perhaps 50 smaller ones 2) It's the physical size of New Jersey and 3) They do obvious racial profiling.
The latter point alone is responsible for most of the TSA excesses. Undressing children and grandmas in wheelchairs (anybody could be a terrorist) is the price we pay for political correctness.
Like a lot of nice solutions, it just doesn't scale well.
The trouble is that we have here a situation resembling that by which the US defeated the USSR Essentially, the US outspent the USSR, which simply could not keep up. But that was a level playing field, which the US won by being richer and able to throw more money at defence...
I would suggest that a better analogy would be the Maginot Line of WWII fame. Big, impressive theater. Easy to walk around. The next successful terrorist action that involves a commercial passenger get will likely be simple, inexpensive and, in hindsight, obvious.
From what I've been able to determine, you NEED an LJ 4 with an 'old style' engine - lays down fine tracks better. You can still pick them up for a song. If I'm remembering this correctly (it's been a while since I started out), I tried it with an LJ 1200 or similar and it didn't work, just like they said it wouldn't. That's when I bought the 4.
The resist paper is a special paper that bonds the printed tracks to the board. I'd give you the name, but I'm traveling and don't remember the company that produces it.
The laminator was the real key. It's just a regular cheap thing for heat laminating plastic sheets over paper and then you set the rollers together a bit tighter to really heat the paper and fuse the plastic to the copper. It's still more of a PITA than you would like, but it works for fairly small traces.
I suspect that there are some groups on the Internet that talk about this with some expertise.
wake me up when i can finally buy a cheap printer that creates circuit boards.
Nap time over! I've been doing it for nearly a decade with an old LaserJet 4. Can't get much cheaper than that.
1. Make circuit
2. Print out on thermal resist paper on LaserJet
3. Use modified laminator to bond resist to copper
4. Etch
5. Not Profit (screwed up circuit, again....)

Hey, don't count Linux out just yet. It's making progress in some parts of the world..
Like Norfolk Island. Next year: Some other isolated bit of humanity. You might think it a hopeless endevour, but when the world goes to hell in a handbasket, who's going to be left holding the keys to mankind's future: Isolated tiny islands in the middle of nowhere.
Face it, you just don't understand the Linux world-domination strategy.
This is biology. It's not black or white. It's shades of gray. Aspergers (and every other psychiatric diagnosis and most purely 'medical' diagnoses) are found on a continuum. It becomes pretty arbitrary when you call a set of symptoms a 'disease' or just a 'personality trait'. Most people get depressed from time to time. Some people stay that way and have that feeling permeate their life. Most people can act a tad manic at times. Only a few can go full bore onto a recognizable manic episode. It comes down to genetics, environment, luck of the draw, feng shu and probably other things.
If you are going to treat these problems with any sort of reductionist bent, you have to put them in a pigeon hole. Gets confusing and annoying at times.
Listen, you son of a bitch. You're supposed to be SUFFERING from this. We came up with the list of symptoms and added it to the DSM and made doctors and schools aware of it and wrangled the media into it. The least you can do is show that you appreciate this by SUFFERING and wanting to be like everyone else. You ungrateful prick!
Nice to see that the clergy is represented on Slashdot.

Using OpenDNS or Google DNS messes with content distribution networks. I don't recommend using them.
Why would that be? Location issues?
There's many reasons to run your own DNS ...
Interesting, but at least for my purposes not terribly important. Thanks for the insight.
Yeah, if there is evidence that they took those steps to circumvent the filter. Is there anybody on Slashdot who isn't already running his/her own DNS server at home?

Slashdot is busted as usual. Cut and paste.
Maybe frinkster has a Windows 7 Phone, you insensitive clod.
Slashdotters might find it inspirational. If a bug can find a use for its penis, there's hope for the rest of us.
The insect in question is using it's penis to procreate. Just like the rest of the animal kingdom
Your turn...
Ah Slashdot. News for Nerds. Bugs that Chatter.

Hot glue them in too.
I hope your users are nicer to keyboards and mice then the ones I work with....

Pretty much all the big players are being sued by somebody.
What else are you going to do with all of those lawyers? Feed them to the sharks?
There is one answer that will always stop this kind of stupidity. Block up the ports with hot glue.
Yep. No keyboard. No mouse. That would likely increase productivity but it's a real hard sell.
It's time they add lasers to the ISS, to shoot away that kind of stuff.
For the thousandth time, sharks don't do well in space.
It's the goal of the engineers to build better foolproof equipment, and it's the goal of nature to build better fools.
And nature has a several million year head start on engineers.
Who do you think is going to win this game?

What's the point of a SAS product that requires you to install the desktop version first...
Paying for it twice. What's wrong with you?
I got a date with boobies!!!!! It says so on the calendar!!!
How do they handle Patch Tuesday then? Are they finally getting MS (read: IE) critical updates from March?
We don't even bother. Once you get used to the little exclamation point in the system tray, you don't worry about it anymore....
You're fired.

One way a "aspie" may compensate for issues in daily life is by forming a fantasy world where they have a degree of control.
Oh, like the large proportion of the planet that watches television all day?
