You made an incorrect blanket statement and I was pointing out a potential case to show this incorrectness.
You claim that having root on a VM is not a security concern -- and I am showing a case where that is incorrect -- even if that does not conform the submitter's problem at large.
if the VM has a full root account, with a network address on the global network at large, then it has the ability to, for example, run a priviledged NMAP scan on the entire network. Which can expose open ports or vulnerabilities on another machine that can then be used to leverage access.

That's what makes this a larger civil rights issue, one worthy of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment -- a suspect class not receiving the same rights as a majority class under the law.
While I do not disagree that federal drug law reform is necessary, I do not agree with the decision to prioritise drug reform simply because more people are effected -- that starts to delve into the tyranny of the majority realm.
Every Ph. D program I have seen in Electrical Engineering (my field) requires N hours of coursework past the masters degree in addition to a dissertation increasing the sphere of knowledge. I think this is what the gentleman from TFA is referring to.

I've never heard of Raythorn BBN Technologies and I bet you haven't either. So here.
you would have lost the bet. BBN is pretty well known for networking related developments (first packet switch/router, first machine-to-machine messaging/email) and acoustic developments (UN Assembly Hall, forensic analysis of the JFK dictabelt & the Nixon Tapes, `Boomerang').
In fact, your computer probably has a fair bit of BBN code & configuration in it. Grep for 'BBN' in/etc, see what comes up.
HPV is 100% avoidable... it's like herpes... it isn't something that just happens.
HPV and HSV are 100% avoidable if you abstain from physical contact with others. Not just sexual contact, _all_ contact. HSV has been transferred from parents to children by kissing. You can acquire it just by making out with someone, which I assume most people would refer to as a "safer" activity.
In addition to transfer via fluid, HPV can be active under the fingernails. If an infected person with an active outbreak touches you where you have broken skin (or digitally penetrates you without a barrier) you can be infected. Essentially, skin-to-skin transfer with an infected person _can_ give you HPV. Touching, mutual masturbation, frotting, making out.
Then, of course, you have things like this, where children are being infected out of no cause of their own.
Or the fact that you can do everything right (and have "safe" sex, using condoms and dental damns and finger cots and not-brushing-your-teeth-before-oral-sex and discussing histories with your partner, and still get infected, because many people can carry these infections without having an outbreak or being aware that they are a carrier.
your ignorance is rampant, you're turning this into The Scarlet Letter for the present time.
$510 was what it cost me to get the three injections (Gardisil is spread out via 3 injections over 6 months) at PPLM.
With the exception of the first injection, the only reason I went into the office for the other two was to receive the shot. No wellness check otherwise.
I got the first injection as part of a quarterly checkup -- I drop in every three months to have a full STI examination taken. Gives me a nice feeling when I can tell people I am d/d free and be sure of it:]
In any case, each injection was listed on the invoice as a $170 fee. I'm sure that is for the cost of the vaccine and the time it took the RN to inject me.
Less infections requiring procedures would mean less money spent on treatments, and would reduce the amount of money they would have to pay out for treatment.
Oh wait, that's probably not what they want, since that means less money passing through their hands for them to skim off of.
testing for males is very difficult, as an asymptomatic male will show no signs of being infected, and, if I recall properly, the FDA does not have any approved tests for HPV in men. I believe the effectiveness in this comes from "Herd Immunity".
I got the HPV vaccine last year as a male at the age of 26. There is the overall thought that if you are sexually active (ie, not a non-infected virgin with another non-infected virgin), you will have obtained some strain of HPV (there are more than 150, most are relatively benign). Your body can "clear" most of these, and they will never be an issue. I thought it was still appropriate for me to get the vaccine, as there are some benefits:
if you aren't infected with certain strains, you are vaccinated from 2 high-risk (HPV 16&18, cancer causing) and 2 high-trauma (HPV 6&11, wart causing) strains of HPV. These strains account for ~70% of HPV-related cancers and ~90% of warts, if I recall the numbers correctly.
if you are infected with HPV 6/11/16/18, the vaccine may help your body to clear and infection if it lingers, and may reduce (or eliminate) outbreaks of warts
Vaccination was uncovered by my insurance (gee, thanks!) but I figured it was worth the $510, to protect myself and any partners (should I be a carrier).
Maybe, setup a second system or laptop for things like wireless testing, drivers, etc.. things you can't simulate in a VM..
you can definitely simulate wireless testing in VMs. Set up instances of linux in a UML, connect them with tuntaps, and modify/drop packets between the tuntaps accordingly according to the probabilistic model for the wireless network you're hoping to test.
I've developed a (proprietary) system for my employer that does just this -- pathloss is calculated using the Friis equation according to geographic distances between nodes. Nodes `move' on a controlling interface, which relays packets to a google-maps (or earth) server for visualization. The interface adds and drops packets between hosts according to characteristics based upon the transmission loss.
ACLU learned that the police had acquired the cell phone scanning devices and in August 2008 filed an official request for records on the program, including logs of how the devices were used. The state police responded by saying they would provide the information only in return for a payment of $544,680.
emphasis mine. ACLU put in a FOIA, police wanted $544,680 to respond.

Pot smokers can choose not to smoke pot.
Gay people can choose not to have gay sex.
Neither group can control their desires.
Are straight people unable to control their desires? Should they be required to? Why should it be any different for gay individuals?

Pot smokers can choose not to smoke pot.
Gay people cannot choose not to be gay.
That is why the Gay rights issue is a higher priority.
The issue with RFID in the balls is rather simple.
RFID can tell you if the ball crossed the goal line to be a score.
RFID cannot tell you if the runner's knee was on the ground before the ball crossed the line.

How is this different from FireGPG? With the exception that this is still in development versus the stall in FireGPG?

It's not just penile cancer. Also, depending on how transferred, HPV can cause rectal and oral (throat) cancers.
I also ready today (here) that HPV may lead to future heart trouble.
