Catholics don't go around killing people unless they are attacked.
As a descendent from 16th century Heugonauts, I must disagree.
In fact, here's an excerpt from some rant that I googled, and while is is a rant, it does get to the point:
"righteous Catholics killing good Heugonauts slaughtering devout Lutherans attacking righteous Catholics on the Continent; with righteous Catholics in England and Ireland killing good Anglicans in England while those good Anglicans slaughtered the devout Presbyterians of Scotland who massacred the righteous Catholics who attacked from Wales and Ireland out on the British Isles, ad infinitum and every bit of it driven by Divine Right monarchs allied, and constantly changing alliances with, groups of people supporting competing and antagonistic Christian beliefs".
I think the point is that ALL religion ends up perverse, as people do perverse and evil things with great ease and little pain to the conscience when they can hide in their religion.
If they allowed 100% of the Tor connections, the comments would be flooded with more ascii goatse pics, GNAA Postings, tubgirl links, and all kinds of wonderful trollish crap.
Then don't browse at -1 or 0: it's the moderators' job to allow free posting here to be bearable, and you can choose how low you want to go....
As for the ip banning, I posted AC above about having my exit policy not allow any connections via my tor server to/. (I think, anyways), but it didn't help, my new ip was banned immediately - couldn't post with tor or proxy-less. I'm connecting through my friggin' cell phone to do it now.
As for the NEED to browse/. through a proxy, I don't have one, but I'm playing with tor (as, by the name of this article, many others are) just to check it out, and running a server to help others check it out...
This is from AOPA's review of the JPI model and the Insight model - the blurb below refers to the Insight Gemini. Maybe this is what JPI is now doing and why:
The Gemini goes about data-logging quite differently. When you want to see what's been happening, simply point the supplied Hewlett-Packard HP200LX palmtop at the Gemini's faceplate and the information will be transferred by infrared link. The information remains encrypted in the HP200LX--it cannot be altered by the user- -so it may be more useful to resolve a warranty dispute or to see how renter-pilots are treating your leaseback bird.
I would say that you are someone to whom my first post hit pretty close to home, for some reason...
I also think you would be very satisfied if I did fly off the handle
I also feel that you are probably someone who can only feel better about him/herself if you have something to point at and say you can rise above it...
Yet, as you continue to bait me like this, I wonder how you would react to being in the position I was in re: the original parent post...
Yes, I would love to see this man's blood pouring down the street, but not your's or anyone else I have ever met in my life. That IS a normal reaction to such circumstances, and as I pointed out above, that is why the dept. of corrections does not give actual locations to the victims when someone is parolled. I DO wish the guy could get the death penalty, and yet I am anti death penalty, pro gun conrtol, so no, i don't have any weapons. How can I be anti death penalty but whish this guy could have been sentenced to that? Because I believe that government should rise above personal emotion.
This is my last post on this, so if you wish, go ahead and continue baiting, I have kids to feed and wash clothes for, AA meetings to go to, &c.
I truly hope you never have to walk this walk that I had to...
The comair meltdown wasn't a software problem if you ask me, it was the business changed.
I should clarify: by sw problem or hw problem, I am not criticizing the code, rather was the os (or the version of Fortran, or the db system) the limitation, or was it the hardware or both?
As to risk assesment, ensuring that that the system can handle the numbers should be a top priority and should be watched: well known by 2004 and at the forefront of things to look at since Y2K. You're exactly right, it was that the volume of the business changed, and that should have been a deciding factor in rushing a changeover, not that the UI wasn't pretty enough or exactly like the old one...
yes, but: As it turned out, the crew management application, unbeknownst to anyone at Comair, could process only a set number of changes--32,000 per month--before shutting down. And that's exactly what happened.
How could nobody in 11 years see that the changes were counted with a 16 bit signed integer? The company grows, I would think that making sure the sw can keep up with the numbers would require very little foresight, yet from the article, it seems that the only considerations were in the UI? I wonder if this was a hw limit or a sw limit...
I don't believe that someone disagreeing with my point of view or a bad cup of copy as analogous to the incident I mentioned. This wasn't a 7 year sentence, it wasn't a 30 year one like Mr. Jackson is facing. It was 165 years!! And the things the guy did, the methods he used, the ways in which he forced compliance: 165 years is an appropritate sentence. Have you heard of any other molester getting that type of sentence?
That being said, I'm not proud of my statements, its not a feeling that is nice to have, and I'm new to it (never felt it until this happened, and I hope never to feel that way about anything or anyone else).
This is why victims and victim's families don't get to know the exact whereabouts of people who get paroled, all we can ask is that they don't live in our county or within 30 miles of us.
I don't think this GPS idea is a good one, as security will be broken, and it kind of gives a whole new meaning to "wardriving", doesn't it?
Oh, and I think if you have any analytical powers at all, I think I am also a real example of why criminals, who have served their time and are not on probation, probably should not be set up with GPS...
You won't be telling them anything they don't know. As to the appeal, it is just another attempt for him to try and control and hurt my kids. He will never be outside of prison walls for the rest of his life anyways: even a third of 165 years is 55 years
As to my threat, I make no apologies, and I don't think that my feelings differ from any other parent who has had something like that happen to their kids over and over for almost 10 years.
As to an AC trying to protect a child molestor: figures...
I think this would be great, becuase the guy who molested my kids was sentenced to 165 years to life (Humboldt County Case #CR030081S, sentenced January 12, 2004, California CDC# V20848, currently residing at Mule Creek State Prison, Ione, California), and he is appealing against the mandatory sentencing guidelines, and if he gets out the GPS will help me hunt him down and kill him...
I've used Netflix and Blockbuster: when I first had netflix, I'd get my 3 dvd's rip them and send them out the next mail day, I got my dvd's in one day and they got the ones I sent back in one day. I cancelled them becuase one time it took like 5 business days to acknowledge receipt of my previous rentals.
I tried blockbuster and it took an average of 3 business days to receive movies and about the same for them to acknowledge receipt of the ones I sent back.
One advantage of blockbuster was that you could send in a complaint about a non-received dvd or no returned acknowldgement immediately. When I had netflix, they wouldn't even let you complain until a certain number of days passed- I don't know if its still like that.
plus, blockbuster gives you a couple of coupons to get a couple of games or movies at the local store for free each month...
cell phones are tapped using the EIN number, it gets provisioned to the cop's equipment, kind of a man in the middle thing...
not that i would know or anything, I think I saw the lone gunmen (the 3 geeks on X-Files) do it in an episode...
they can customize the dial error messages you receive, they can route your cell-phone web browser through whatever proxy server they want, they can shut off your cell phone to piss you off, reprovision on the fly, etc... The hardest thing is to find your physical location, and thats using good old triangulation if you turn off the location awareness thingie (which isn't actually turned off, just restricts it to "Law Enforcement Personnel" or their close personal friends), and yes, they can create a hidden three-way call to a third party to listen in, or store the conversations digitally...
Anyways, the point is that cell phones are tapped with computers, after it the signal hits the tower and gets on the land lines, not with radio receivers...
-snip-...an administrative assistant as I am surely you must be if you had the above conversation.
Nope, not an admin asst. nor a McDonald's worker nor a $tarbuck$ barista, and I do use openoffice, though not exclusively...
I was thinking more about high school ROP type programs...
That being said, not every kid in HS gets to admin Beowulf clusters or program or work in any type of IT/development department, some of them have to type memos all day or work with spreadsheets, and some have to clean the toilets, and not every business has the time or the desire to become/. savvy type people and they don't have any idea what the "Open" in openoffice means (nor do they care), I'm just looking at the reality of most employers - as well as the program that is going to scan the resume that they send in and make the decision on whether or not an actual human will ever actually see it...
When a kid leaves the school and tries to get a job and says "Yes, I am proficient in OpenOffice", how many employers are going to say "That's great, but we use M$ Office..."
the Weather Channel is asking cable companies to add a surcharge based on the number of windows in a subscriber's household, to recoup lost revenues due to subscriber's looking outside to see what the weather is like...
I don't see that as a problem, whether it's gays or straights talking: people tend to have those conversations in private (at the water-cooler when no-ones around or elsewhere).
I don't think that the general workplace is going to hear: "i sucked the tastiest cock last night" anymore than "i fucked the shit out of some bar-bitch last night".
Those conversations don't come up in the workplace, I don't see that a person's sexual orientation has any bearing on their discretion in the workplace.
If that is the rational, then I see that as homophobia...
That doesn't mean we keep a dildo as a paperweight, or have a cat'o'nine tails and some handcuffs, or a picture from the last "Dykes on Bikes" parade on the wall next to the generic "Perserverance" workplace art.
