Yes, yes... But is it usable as a weapon?

THAT is why is should have read:

Actually I think with modern OS and compiler the opposite is true. The moment you overwrite your stack canaries and return address you app goes *poof*. (No message box, no error handler, just disappears from the process list.) You can live with corrupted heap objects for a good while; especially if you wrote over the
end and don't try to free / reallocate the following heap object.

This is only an iteration of sibling posts, but they are using the most retarded solution to build a sting in memory. Something that you learn in your introductory course, use StringBuilder, because performance...

It's a matter of mission statement. In Germany the public TV and radio is also payed by a "tax" (it's not called a tax, but it's mandatory). But they broadcast many things, especially the news world wide without restrictions. Up until last year they operated lang wave radio to reach the entire globe. They see it as a service to ex-pat Germans and other people interested in Germany.

The BBC has a long track record of selling their stuff (which is quite good). They have a vested interest to not make it available outside of the UK. But technically you could argue that they are double dipping, since it should be payed though UK TV licenses. (For example in the US this would not fly, since anything produced on tax money is automatically public domain.) The problem is that the BBC relies on these outside of UK licenses to produce the things they do; this law change would throw a spanned in the gears of the BBC's funding. (If would not be totally doom and gloom though, since the only thing that is unblocked is BBC's website's streaming services.)

Where is this digital goods factory you speak of? I would like to visit it...

Do you pay taxes?

Yea, that interstate commerce -> no sales tax thing in the US never made sense to either.

In this specific case, I would rather think that the northern countries, especially Germany, wanted that their food safety regulations to also apply to the southern countries. "Somebody think of our poor consumers?" (They don't make olive oil in mid and northern Europe.)

Although I understand the sentiment; the "richer" countries, e.g. Germany, already works with these "food safety" measures in place. They have had this drag on the marked already in place, so they did not need to adapt. The problem is when a new EU directive actually kills traditional products; like in France where the requirement to make cheese with pasteurized milk made something like 3/4 of the French cheeses impossible to make. (They resolved the issue with local exemptions.)

But once you comply with "improved" food and product safety requirements, the EU did help trade.

THAT is what cruise control is for. This is the exact situation that is was designed for, a open freeway with little to no traffic. In stations like these put the cruise control and stop worrying.

I drove a BMW with a speed limit detector. If I am correct, it did not feed that back into the cruise control, but seeing the current speed limit on the side of your current speed in the heads up display, hovering above your hood, was sufficient to not speed by accident. The system worked quite flawlessly, even in medium snow. It is a mix from nav data and forward sign detection. The only mistake I notices was when merging back onto the Autobahn, that was under construction, it showed unlimited on the acceleration lane, until it saw the first sign (at the end of the lane).

Since when are /. discussions on topic?

So... systemd or stupid apple fan boys?

In Germany we call them Autobahn... ;-)

The to and from bits are all clearly visible...
