We all had ample time to get the fuck off of XP by now. All the crying and whinging is stupid. Update your damn OS already. It's not Uncle Microsoft's fault you didn't get your ass in gear and set up an upgrade path sooner.
..on a smart phone like the iPhone. Use the gyros/accelerometers, make the user draw randomly on the screen, maybe use random info like wifi network names currently available, generate random info based on images on the phone, etc. etc. Plenty of data/means available to create the entropy needed.
...wouldn't know what Radio Shacks roots were if they were beaten about the arms and head with it. They successfully killed and buried it way back in the early 00's by tanking the Tandy Corp name.
but at the same time the law has to apply to everybody
Except it doesn't, it hasn't, and it's retarded to even say that knowing this truth. Besides, why the fuck even carry out laws everyone knows are fucking broken and/or stupid?
Always makes me laugh to hear ignorant folks like you spout off like leaving people flapping in the breeze is a good way to do things.
People having 0 income, slowly losing everything they own up to and including a place to live, and being unable to drive anywhere to find jobs or make it to interviews certainly won't increase employment. So tell me, Mr. Smarty Man (or Woman), what's the better way to do things? You're clearly a pillar of economic know how, tell Detroit exactly how to get out of the mess their in.
Except you're on *their* site which costs *them* money to run. As much as I hate ads too, I have to admit the reality of the situation. As long as we have money and everything has a cost, nothing will be "free" completely.
So yes, you paid for all of your equipment. But you haven't paid anything to view the content if you block ads. Why do you have absolute right to view it without some kind of compensation to the owner for their costs?
I specifically made an account for my android to avoid mixing of contacts. Very few people I have on G+ are folks I communicate with anywhere but online via IRC, FB, or G+. I don't need their e-mail addresses, and I certainly don't want them shoehorned into my address book.
...of the specifics, but can someone tell me why it's even possible for something like a fucking font to cause a security issue? I'm not a coder, it's not something I can wrap my head around. I can sometimes get the gist of what a bit of code is doing when I look at it, but that's beside the point. It just seems to me so many things that should not be able to pose a security risk somehow get manipulated into being such risks, and it just blows my mind how it's even possible.
You're being disingenuous and just a little bit hyperbolic. The very article you link clearly points out that humans do not ingest enough acrylamide to be a problem from either a neurological or carcinogenic standpoint.
This, to me, would take it back to the idea that this stuff should be publicly owned and run, and then the smart thing to do would be to run it all before the developments are built, then people don't have anything to bitch about.
Then set it up so that the providers can go one of two ways: Charge what they want for service, and get charged to use the infrastructure, or be allowed to use the infrastructure for free, but enforce price restrictions on services and require certain speeds be met at minimum per tier, etc.
It can be done, so instead of naysaying and hand wringing and making up reasons why it can't, lets push what we know: yes it can.
...would be with analogy. Upper management don't do everything themselves. They have staff they delegate to. Get them to stop and think what a nightmare they'd be in if they had nobody to delegate to, and had to do all of the work coming at them by themselves. It's the same for IT.
If they try to go "But those other 5 guys..." stop them and point out that that would be like giving them 5 janitors to delegate to. They'd be better than nothing, but not the right fit for the job and a lot still wouldn't get done.
I love guys like you that say this. Short sighted as hell, and completely unaware that the day will come that you can't run fast enough to keep up and you'll hear rumblings of replacement.
Work smarter, not harder. Your job is only secure if you can maintain things. If you're running just to stand still, you're doing it wrong, and like OP, most IT crews of entities like this are either there, or on the verge of it.
for awhile, but I'd need to know any rules and such. I mean, this place isn't a full sensory deprivation chamber, it's just a silent room. So you can still see and such, I presume, or am I wrong? And can you talk? I would actually find it really fascinating, and not scary at all to hear my heartbeat and the blood rushing through my ears...
This. If I were Google and MS and Yahoo, etc. I'd just pull the plug on the.fr search page and put up a page that basically states "Due to general stupidity, we cannot be bothered to serve your country anymore. Sorry for the inconvenience. If you wish for service to be restored, please enlighten your politicians and the courts. Until then, best wishes, Google/Yahoo/MS/etc."
Making the search engines do the work would be like requiring checkpoints at every on/off ramp and intersection of every road, freeway, and highway to make sure no vehicle is transporting anything illegal, and threatening to shut the roads down if there is no compliance.
Go after the source, or fuck off. Stop making every step of the way play police officer.
They re-arrange it, add info and machines all the time. For awhile they had a Famicom and some games under glass and such. It's pretty neat. It's attached to the Computer Store, which I visit often to buy cheap classic xboxes to soft mod, and cheap game software, etc. Always a good time sink.
I think the both of you know what he meant and it's silly that you're going to be pedantic about it. She should have scanned all the files and encrypted them, as well as storing them off-site somewhere, and then kept the paper files locked in some kind of safe.
She did a poor job of keeping her belongings and her informants protected/safe.

"...for anyone but Comcast is still open."
It was never a question, nor open. The answer is no. It is painfully obvious this benefits Comcast and hurts everyone else.

I mean, the result will most likely be the same, will it not?

You'd be surprised (or maybe not) how many people still pay to keep the @aol.com e-mail they've had for going on 2 decades now.
Dammit, this shit is funny, why is it getting modded down? Truth hurting a bit much? :p
Too bad I don't have mod points anymore, I would've modded it up for funny.

I think I'd have fun in there.

This is incorrect, I am pretty sure. Plenty of programs and games recognize right vs. left ctrl, alt, and shift keys.
