and yet still somehow as a planet we always thrive
We as in dinosaurs? We as in what? Geologically speaking bad shit happens to species all the time. Study mass extinctions that have killed a large percentage of all species. They are rare events, but they do happen. Will it be tomorrow, next week, next 1 million years, that we don't know. The problem is we as humans know extinction events exist, but events occur at timescales that the human mind doesn't easily comprehend. We tend to live in today and worry about tomorrow, therefore if an event will occur in the future our worry says that's tomorrow.
It's not the problem of all at once, or over a period of time.. it's a problem of rock vs water. If Katrina, Rita, and Wilma were made out of rock dust and over land instead of being water over water mostly then the outcome of the storms would have been far far far more devastating.
No, most password changing systems force a password that isn't similar to the old one. If you have a system that forces password changes that often you can always figure out the password by looking at the sticky note on the users monitor.
Unless the tires were rated for over double the wheel weight of your car, that probably wouldn't be true. I'm not sure of the ratio of weight to wear but I'm pretty sure that it is not anywhere close to linear.
As the poster above said. LOTR, also read the entire Harry Potter series beginning to end in around two days. For avid readers of series it could be an issue.
Just using a password isn't safe either. I 'cracked' my own home router that was running WEP encryption in about 5 minutes using a live-cd distribution for that purpose. I've made sure that everything is on WPA2 now, but very few home users are going to know the difference between encryption types.
It's not just wireless that presents problems like this. If your computer or router gets cracked and starts routing illicit traffic for third parties the exact same thing in the article can occur.
No, you the tax payer should be punished when you don't police your officers. Keep your elected officials on a chain, and in turn they'll keep their officers on one too.
>Are you aware that the warmest parts of the globe are deserts?
Most of Antarctica is considered a desert. Rarely snows it's so cold, but what does fall tends to stay around forever. Deserts have more to do with mountain ranges blocking moisture then temperature alone. It's the marginal area's that humans have the worst effect on. We use up the surface water and exacerbate the problem by poor land use.
Look at the period at the end of this sentence. Now imagine using a drill bit that size to drill in to an Olympic sized swimming pool and trying to drain it.
"the Lava Creek eruption which happened nearly 640,000 years ago,[19] ejected approximately 240 cubic miles (1,000 km3) of rock and dust into the sky."
I love their answer too... run a repair install. Most of the time I've seen this occur is because there is a file permission error and their stupid fucking update mechanism can't figure out that it needs to rollback the update, skip it, and report to the user what the problem is. I love how numerous updates leave random directories in the root drive that can't be deleted unless you take ownership and set full access to them. What's even better is when the issues don't show up on the testbed and only occur randomly to users.
Tweaking stuff to not use LDAP, printing, etc sounds like a really good idea on a server where shit like OpenLDAP and CUPS opens up your attack surface, especially when you don't need it. That's why people bitch about RPM hell, package a needs package b which needs everything including x-windows and the kitchen sink.
Compile flags are rarely about speed, more about including libraries and excluding unneeded crap.
Also, if you've been using Linux/BSD since 96 and have always used binaries, you've been way behind on security patches at times. (not so much recently).
If you end up rebuilding the server 5 times over the course of the year, at 2 hours per pop,
W T F. If you rebuild a server more then once every 3 years... ..Then your hardware sucks and you need better equipment. ..Then your applications suck and need to quick dicking with the operating system. ..Then your admins suck and need to be fired.
While I've only been doing admin work since '95, I can say with any modern server operating system is not going to fall over and die unless there is an underlying issue that needs addressed. I guess this is why I'm the bearded guy that comes in and fixes messes. I also say once every three years because by that time Windows can become a mess of security patches that will run better from a fresh install.
The OP can also solve his problem easily and cheaply by using comcast's outgoing smtp servers as smarthost.
Unless his ISP outgoing SMTP sucks. Our local cable company has all kinds of issues... attachments timing out, long queuing delays, getting blocked for spam on occasion themselves. Running your own SMTP server can have great benefits for a business if their admin is knowledgeable. At a title closing company I'll set the queue time much lower, it doesn't make much sense to queue mail up to seven days when you need the docs delivered that day. Much better to get a bounce in an hour so someone can make a phone call. Also you can set the attachment limits much higher with your own private server and don't have to worry about it chocking.
Unless there is a terrible fire after the detonation, bombs don't destroy as much as you'd think. It just blows little tiny pieces everywhere, given a detailed investigation the pieces can be found and some of what occurred can be pieced back together. Three things probably tipped them off pretty quickly...
Remains of a bomb vest were found. Pieces of an altered cell phone where found and it number was identified. The cell phone company showed a sms sent to the phone around the same time the bomb detonated.
Hell, it could have been something else, the bombers phone could have rang, scaring him so bad he did something unintentional to set the vest off.
People tend to fuck up their own suicides. If you're holding something that will kill you if you let go, you might find you'll have a very hard time letting it go, so much so that people around you might notice what's going on.
A friend of mine is a justice of the peace, he has to go out on the death calls in the county and declare people dead, how it happened, and if an autopsy is needed. In many gun suicides people tend to have a jerking reaction at the last minute and do things like blow their face off instead of their brains out... making for a slow painful death rather than a quick one.
In this case it makes sense that a third party that has more of there wits about them pulling the trigger, they may have a little more situational awareness going on. Then again, both people involved seem to be out of their fucking mind in my perspective.
Call your postal inspector. Our local post office had an issue like this around a decade ago, stuff of value, but not high value was disappearing from the mail. It evidently had been occurring to a number of people for some time is what was discovered after the fact. Issue was, nobody reported it for the longest time. Once a number of reports came it, it was investigated and the person was caught pretty quick.
The sheep will never realize that the shepherd only has one dog, and we're a whole flock.
Only one dog? Yea, wow, just wow. Open your eyes, there are plenty of dogs out there that will kill you if you try to upset their world. See: wikileaks.
There would be tons of secondary problems come out of 'solving' the problem of aging too. For example a woman is born with all the eggs she will ovulate. Currently that's not an issue in most people as we tend to have kids around 20 or so years old, but as women push back childbirth in to the later part of their lives all kinds of issues start cropping up. Again, these issues can be over come with enough science, but as we all know that doesn't come cheap and will benefit the rich the most.
Also, I remember reading that some organ of the body seemed to follow a different aging process. I'll have to try to find that, who knows with all the medical bullshit that's written, it could have been conjecture I had read a story about.

Actually didn't AMD get the goodness out and come up with hypertransport and a much better systems bus then Intel had for years?
A man's wife would not sleep with a different man simply because the second man had a bank account in her husband's name
I think you underestimate what some women would do for money.
Just write an pdf exploit that grabs admin and install err, foxit or something patched a little less often then once a week.

I'd suggest using irfanview and doing a batch process on all your images to remove exif data then.
Have it sent to you in a box, or get a bigger mailbox (if you have your own).

: a place where something is deposited especially for safekeeping
Pretty much a warehouse where school books, a long with other administrative crap was kept before it was distributed amongst the schools.
