Name me a time when there wasn't violence going on in the middle east. It was all rainbows and unicorns until Israel showed up and ruined the peace party.
There are other options that work perfectly well. It's your right to choose not to use them of course. I respect that, contrary to you who disrespect what I do without actually knowing what I do for that matter. And you don't even want to know apparently.
Which part of "You have two choices" (emphasis mine) didn't you get you dumbass?
Doesn't really matter, as soon as you start commenting like that you lose all credibility and no one cares at all what you say. You are a troll setting out to start a flame war.
It's getting towards the end of 2011, and people are still advocating the use of user-agent sniffing? What the hell? The past 20 years of experience with this being a horrible approach hasn't convinced you to avoid it?
So you want to serve the same content to all UA's on all devices?

2) Unlike support-quality individuals, you have the aspiration and drive to do other and varied things, most likely in your own time.
You make an interesting point. One of my favourite interview questions is to ask people how much of what they know they learned outside of school, and what those things were. (Not quite that openly)
It's very telling. People who are passionate about what they do learn most of what they know on their own time. People who are just in it for the money learn everything at school or on the job.
People who are in it for the money might be competent, but they never excel.
I like to be able to do everything. When I started here, I built my own servers. I had total control of everything. I built an ISP once. (circa 93, to get on the net)
Sysops administer them now, but I have a thorough working knowledge of all my systems.
What could possibly be wrong with that? I fail to understand how any knowledge would be a bad thing. Particularly knowledge relating to what you do.
My own career has built on what has gone before and I always make an effort to at least learn about the disciplines around my work, even if I do not apply them.
Why? Not sure, but I think it's because I find it all interesting. I've only done things that are interesting to me, preferring to be unemployed to having a job that I don't like.
(apologies if I seem patronizing, not my intention.)
Thanks for having no idea what you are talking about. SSH is not going to connect to an SMTP server.
No, I didn't look up the port number, I don't use telnet, although I have telnetted to mail servers before. I thought you were trying to telnet to your content server. Serves me right for trying to be helpful.
I suppose that is all geek history. Beyond that it is a sad lot of unrelated crap that makes no logical point.
It certainly has nothing to do with the fact that American companies do not support Americans. But then, they aren't really American companies any more, are they? Except for retail, and steadily shrinking R&D, they don't employ Americans, and they don't pay much in taxes, if anything at all.

That's freedom. As in
All the ones that are confiscated are either openly infringing, or pretty damn close.
not pretty damn close. It's a shame that the douchebags make up the majority, i.e. the public, i.e. the people that the government is supposed to represent. (As opposed to the people that OWN the government, you know, the corporate persons who hold all the marbles?) Who the fuck are you?
Isn't the best way to avoid confiscation to not infringe copyright?
Like, if you have a normal website with normal website crap, it's not going to be confiscated. All the ones that are confiscated are either openly infringing, or pretty damn close.
You've fallen victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous of which is never get involved in a land war in Asia. (LOL!)
But only slightly less well known is this, never assume that the US government acts in accordance with the public good. You don't have to infringe copyright to have your website confiscated any more than you have to commit an act of terrorism to be branded a terrorist. Or vice versa.
I suspect that you are correct in suggesting that normal websites with normal website crap aren't going to attract any attention from the government, or anyone else for that matter, but attack Big Business or suggest that some semblance of real Democracy should be a concern, and you will attract their attention.

The Crusades.
You see, the FBI prefers to train it's own terrorists
Hey, it works for the CIA.
So in other words, you feel your atheism gives you superior morality.
His atheism allows him to question morality, his own and others, as opposed to morals dictated by a religion that must be adhered to without question.

Terrorism, the new religion.

Just think about that for a bit.

Some would call it unprofessional to even include areas you learn from study and hobby on your resume since it isn't "professional" experience.
Not me.

I looked up tardulent. No one seems to know what it means. Typo?
Try starting here and adding suffixes à la "fraudulent".
Ahh. As in pertaining to or resulting from the actions of a f?cktard.

I haven't been unemployed much.

25 is smtp, 22 is ssh. Who needs to look it up?
It was not a good dead, you were trying to show off how smart you are. Turns out you made a mistake while doing it, live and learn.
I do. You win the pissing contest.
btw, it's 'deed', not 'dead'. Look it up.
Apologies. I misunderstood the issue.
Many public domain works are freely available through both the individual e-readers stores and sites like Project Gutenberg.
Cool!

No good deed goes unpunished.
Perhaps they don't block it in your area. I cannot telnet from my home to a server I have at rackspace on port 25.
Have you troubleshooted the issue? You may be running a firewall on a router, or if you are using Linux, iptables may be blocking ports by default.
Also, telnet is rather insecure, SSH is what you should be using. Rackspace might not let you telnet.
(apologies if I seem patronizing, not my intention.)
That does seem unlikely, doesn't it.
