A good example would be Interix, which is/was a whole posix subsysten that runs on the bare NT kernel, alonside the win32 subststem and whatever other subsystems you want.
And Interex even showed the danger of exposing layers like this On a Windows machine. Back in the day I worked in the software area of a medical device company that produced implantable devices. We all worked on a vast network that had NT, Solaris and OS/2 systems, for various parts of the build.
I installed Interix on my Win2K desktop to help me do some things (I was responsible for build/release and some testing). I discovered that for whatever reason, my new NT based posix workstation was inheriting the rights of my account on Solaris NFS shares across the network. As we all had admin access on our Windows boxes, I decided to create a throwaway user account on my PC with the username of one of the senior developers. By logging into this account, I had full access to alter, create, or delete the files owned by this developer. Interix totally bypassed the Solaris security system on our network.
Noscript has the angry red mark down in it's spot on the bottom right corner when I am using Slashdot on Seamonkey, because there are many, many things the Slashdot page would apparently like me to unblock, but Noscript says I am only allowing 4/17 and it works pretty good. (Hmmm, I should block off a few more of those... what is rpxnow.com and rubiconproject.com....)
You get used to the faint oily smell and the UPPER CASE ONLY after awhile. The punch tape reader/writer is handy for data and program storage, but it's only 110 baud just like the rest of the teletype.
Schneier is a cryptology journalist, not a cryptographer. And cryptography relates to security in the same way as Trigonometry relates to the Calculus.
He's done a good job leveraging the fact that he wrote 'Applied Cryptography' when nobody else dared. And he probably has gathered up a lot of good info for his books and publications since then.
Ironically, the most likely way for starship captain Shatner to be killed is from being thrown off a horse, as horses are one of his main interests these days.
No, I will still hate Apple the company. For who they are and who they have been historically. I've hated them since Steve Jobs stood up on a platform and boasted of the new 'Hacker Proof' Macintosh at product introduction.
That was in the old days, and hacker had the meaning we all still wish it did.
Other crimes Apple committed include suing all the third party GUI vendors out of business. They ran the GEM desktop and the GEOS desktop off the market. They sued and drove out of business everybody but Microsoft's GUI. In effect they created the Windows monopoly we have today. Fuckers. Fuck Apple.
Is it a medical emergency if I catch a really crappy pidgey right before walking into this bar? Because it would be extremely stressful to not be able to immediately transfer it, and stress can lead to medical colications.
The optimist in me says that the auctions of surplus office equipment when they empty out buildings in D.C. full of useless bureaucrats in the first year of the Trump administration will mean cheap staplers (and lots of them even RED staplers!) for all of us!

Creepy discovery.
It isn't necessary to get ALL the kids interested. Just to give the potential minority of fledgling nerds exposure.
Trying to achieve mainstream appeal is a distraction. This is Slashdot. Maybe you wandered in here by mistake?
And a point occupies no space, and a plane extends to infinity in all directions.
We get it. But it doesn't matter in this discussion.
Sorry for doubleposting, but blocked those two and now it says 2/16 Allowed. Something gave up trying. Yay!

(better post this before blocking them)
I am modern and use an ASR-33 Teletype.

The practical solution, of course, is just to kill people who use terms like 'endpoint security' with claw hammers.
Not to add any complexity to this discussion or anything.... but really....

How could this management team make Twitter generate a profit?
Any practical explanation would be welcome.
You don't want any evidence you disagree with. Carry on, dude.
Keep calling people 'brownshirts' and ' nasty little gutter dwellers.'
It helps flesh out who and what you are.
Now, that's certainly a throwaway comment.
I suppose I missed something subtle and clever.
Maher is just a television performer. His big show was a comedy revue on a network that primarily airs comedy programs.
Now its all about factory wheels that cost $2k each to replace.
Car culture sucks.

Furthermore, mom's basement already has poor cell coverage. The wifi is fine, of course.
Are you a plant paid by the RNC to make anti-Trump people seem stupid?
I'm just waiting for the Hillary half dollar. But hopefully she won't be elected.
I thought Hobbes was a Calvinist.
Never Mind The Bollocks....
There won't be any renewal after the death of Gawker. Hopefully.
Use all the flowery language you want.
The red meat the Clinton Machine was throwing to the American Public is 'Trump is working with the Ruskies!'
Yep, it's a dirty business. The Clintons are a shitstain on this country.
It's disappointing that you can't see beyond your stereotypes.
