... and also subject to aspect and inertial problems. A magnetic compass, even a fluxgate, is only useful while flying straight and level for a period of time.
If it's heading for the tailpipe, then it's a heat seeker, which is only going to care about the exhaust profile - not the radar cross-section.
Snarkism aside, yea, you do want as small a cross-section as you can get away with from all aspects for just that reason - you may not get a lock as it flies towards you, but if it flies past or around, or by, then yes it does matter.
That all said, the F35 sacrificed non-front-aspect cross-section for some other design decisions, where the F22 was more conservative. I suppose it still doesn't matter much, because the difference between to two is a steel golf ball vs a steel marble. Heh.
From below/above, and to a certain extent, the sides yes.
The same could be said about ours... you really only 'care' about how stealthy it is from the front. After all, who cares if the smoldering crater can see you?
a: that's the firewall's job. NAT has made this less clear to people. b: that's a switch's job. Unless you are actually -routing- (and a $50 "router" doesn't do that)
Shame on you mods, this isn't a real bible-thumper troll. There's some good points buried in here....
The first hint is your conscience...
I'll kindly ask you keep your system of morality in mind, as that is entirely what governs your conscience. This gets into really nasty arguments about good/evil black/white etc and we best not delve into that as nobody will leave happy.
Sex, for instance, is perfectly fine within the lifelong bond of marriage. However, when we use it as a source of pleasure, we find ourselves in all sorts of painful and distracting situations.
This tends to be true only for those who have an addictive personality, or are compensating for some other deficit. Seldom will you see a healthy (mental) person engaging in orgies/promiscuous behavior regularly. Keep in mind that promiscuous does not mean polygamous, or rather I don't mean it in that way.
As for intoxication, there are several problems. Other than the fact that you are out of control (depending on the intoxicant), you also have the tendency to get wrapped up in it and become less productive.
For the most part, I would agree. However, note that the only intoxicant I ever use is alcohol, and having maybe 5 drinks in a month tends to push this argument down. Perhaps I'm not 'normal' in this sense?
One may argue that there are drugs that are not adictive and cause no lasting damage. That may be the case, so they may not be so bad.
Excellent job cutting through this. I agree. If it's true, then it's not necessarily bad.
The real problem is trying to define your life by pleasure, which is fleeting. It is one of the things, such as money, fame, etc. that people set their sites on that have no lasting benefit. In that sense, it is inconvenient at best.
This is true. Note that, what others may not grasp, you said "define your life by" not "occasionally seek" - I don't think anyone could argue that gluttony, greed, or (true) hedonism are good things (even if the basis for them - survival etc - is).
Sadly, I have known many people who have had their life ruined by drug addiction. It is their experience that has told me the harm that those things can cause. Am I therefore advocating laws against drugs? Not necessarily. I'm just saying that they are a potential snare...
Aye - even if this isn't always the case, the amount of people who ruin themselves vastly overshadow the number who don't.
... and I thank God that He loves and forgives even the worst and will remove them from the things they can't leave on their own.
Heh, Karma's a bitch no matter what you call it, eh?
I find that from gigabit LAN usage, I would MOST DEFINITELY use the hell out of "X Forwarding" if it wasn't so godawful slow. I'm sure I'm not alone in this opinion.
Conventional systems such as RDP and VNC are tough, because the 'windowed' mode of it wastes a lot of space and makes it hard to integrate what your doing into your local environment. Systems that get around this (like Citrix) really are doing what X Forwarding does anyways.
On my CentOS box it entailed the following gruelling sequence of steps:
$ sudo yum install nx freenx
Then, install a client, connect to your server, pretend you are working on your server.
This is useless for the runlevel 3 crowd (however my box is at 3 and it runs quite nicely).
Yea, installing the software isn't very hard. Configuring it and getting the client etc to play nice is where it gets not so fun.
Even so - you can blame RedHat (or whoever maintains that package) for making your package so nice and easy. Not everyone has that indirect expert assistance handy.
Now are you talking that people deliberately took the money, or people made stupid mistakes?
Being short (or over, lets be realistic) on your till now and then doesn't make you a thief all on it's own. Patterns or deliberate intent can make the case though.

Modem speeds are faster than what you would need to pull a single number over an interval :/
People used to read whole BBS over a 2400 buad connection, I think they can read a number through one several times that speed...
I thought you were trying to say a mag compass was better because it was simple and reliable... yet you then come back with the gryo? I'm confusered :)
... and also subject to aspect and inertial problems. A magnetic compass, even a fluxgate, is only useful while flying straight and level for a period of time.
Even 2-seat aircraft usually have a flux compass system but this requires the electrical system to be functional.
They still have a normal compass available should the electrical system fail.

Indeed, and it only had two hardpoints at that.

A gateway or bridge.

b: that's a switch's job. Unless you are actually -routing- (and a $50 "router" doesn't do that)
What's the difference between letting the radioactive wastes in the ground and putting them back in the ground after you get the ore out?
Leaving it in water lets it seep down into the water table and away from the site.
As I told an AC elsewhere, you should no longer need a router at all with IPv6. This does make firewalls a lot more important however.
You should no longer need a router if you use IPv6. That's kind of the point.
You should be OK with a switch.
Note that your going to need to take care to firewall or otherwise restrict access, however.
I use openwrt myself, but dd-wrt was my 'gateway drug' :)
My D-Link router
I found your problem!
Wouldn't you want to short with some kind of a load? Just shorting them is a nice way to burn something.
Only if you're an idiot and fail to look at the whole dialog. There's also FIPS Mode if you're extra paranoid.

Something tells me that violent natured games are a hard sell in jail...
Except Borders almost always has only one register open. What's the point if you're too cheap to run more than one till at a time?
VNC opens a window that everything else goes in.
Running shit via "ssh -X [-Y]" makes anything I run integrate seamlessly into my environment.
Big difference, that.
Chicken and egg problem.
