Put up your dukes? What if it's just your dukes against 10 or 20 dukes? What if it's your dukes against a knife? Dukes versus a baseball bat? What if you're ill, weak, elderly, etc...?
Gun control is a failure. In states that have allowed citizens to obtain concealed carry permits, violent crime has gone down markedly. I site the following snippet from Wikipedia as evidence. Feel free to go to the site & check the references yourself.
"The FBI's statistics in the 1992 Uniform Crime Report also concluded: "Violent crime rates are highest overall in states with laws limiting or prohibiting the carrying of concealed firearms for self-defense." [1] "The FBI's data also show that in 20 other states that issue CCW permits (including Arizona, Washington, Oregon, Tennessee, Wyoming, and others), these states have enjoyed a REDUCTION in crime as follows: 1) Violent crime rates are LOWER by 21%. 2) Homicide rates are LOWER by 33% 3) Robbery rates are LOWER by 37% and 4) Aggravated assaults are lower by 13%."[2]"
I don't know if you have kids. It doesn't matter, really. Find a kid in your family or circle of friends & see if they're interested in learning to program. Teach them about open source, Linux, etc. Maybe use video game development as the hook.
An unnamed insurance company had this policy when I worked there a few years ago. An employee won 25k one year for a suggestion that saved the company a bundle.
As I sit & think back, the best managers I've had have been women. I'm not sure why...may just be coincidence. It could also be related to women, in general, being more inclined to encourage cooperation among team members, as opposed to competition with one another. Seems our nuts can be our best friends or our worst enemies...
Patient: "Doc, I'm really having a hard time sleeping. Can you help?"
Doc: "Sure, pal. But first, I need to know if you actually want to sleep, or if you'd just like to not need to sleep. If you want to sleep, we can go with Lunesta. Otherwise, I've got this really good shit..."
Ok, so the for profit router manufacturers may be required to create back doors for the feds (which, of course, will be discovered & exploited by others). This will not stop, & in fact should encourage, the use of linux routers & firewalls without these holes. If I make it & don't sell it, I don't see how the feds can say shit about it.

Equally mundane, at work we use SSH to access production servers over the internet. We also use SSH tunnels to transmit EDI files.

I'm sorry, but my comments were directed at KillShill, not the post above me. I'm perfectly aware of the Nanking incidents.
Study history & perhaps you'll stop uttering such rubish.

How about I forgot the passphrase? Fsck them... If they want in they'll have to crack it...
