It seems like that problem in solved these days. I have no problem saying "Ok google, open waze" and it does the right thing.

That's absurd. I've saved my team's collective ass by pointing to stuff like - "we made this agreement with your company on 5/2/2007 in a discussion with myself Mike and Jeff". Ultimately that's been a great benefit to my employer (though we don't do any kind of shady stuff that we don't want future records pointing to)
I also don't think legality factors into it massively, particularly if it's legalized with the facts about safety and addiction clearly marked on the package.
The reason I don't get up in the morning and smoke heroin has nothing to do with the law, it's very similar to the reason I don't start the day with a double whisky - it's because it wouldn't have a positive impact on my life. Generally nobody believes they'll be caught anyway - there might be a little novelty at first, but by and large the people who want to abuse opiates are already abusing opiates.
I've never had a particularly bad experience quitting jobs, and the more graceful employers have always left themselves in situations where they can call me up and ask if they need a particular file or piece of knowledge or hire me back on a short term basis to fix a problem.
One employer early in my career even pointed out that my workstation was slated for recycling when I was done with it and let me take it home. Somehow security didn't bat an eyelid when I signed that out and simultaneously handed over my termination documents and badge.
I too have been using Joker for probably a decade and have had nothing but good experiences. The whole thing is nicely automated, their messages all come gpg signed and their customer service is pretty good and they helped me out recently by making exceptions to their automated rules.
I find it quite hilarious that non-citizens are supposedly among the first people who'll be drafted to fight for this country. WTF
I'm not a citizen and I was forced to register and required to prove it at my next green card interview.
Also I think it's fundamentally wrong to view "civil disobedience" as a one time thing. Him handing a bunch of documents to Glenn Greenwald wasn't the singular act of disobedience.
He's still acting in a disobedient matter. He's still sitting on the bus if you will. And he is still suffering the consequences of his actions, even if that doesn't mean rotting in prison.
I think his own actions make that quite clear. If he's been stuck in a US prison do you think he's be able to still communicate with journalists to draw attention to his leaks, would he be able to testify at the European Union?
He's already demonstrated that he's more valuable to advancing his agenda when he's able to communicate, than if he were in prison alongside Chelsea Manning. He's not running away like a coward, he's running away like someone who's determined to make his actions count for as much as possible.
Thinking back to this, you may have driver issues with this. If it's still in an OEM configuration then that'll probably be done for you by compaq, but on a clean DOS install i remember having to screw around installing cardsoft drivers to make it work.
I did find a bunch of updates to compaqs pcmcia stuff here, which suggests there's probably something there by default too:

Put a 64MB CF card in a CF to pcmcia adapter and Windows should see it has a hard disk.
Then stick that in a modern card reader and you should be home free
Which is great! I learned a lot of my introductory networking stuff trying to thwart my high school's web filters.
My son isn't old enough for this to be an issue yet, but I think my strategy will be to tell him that I log all the web traffic going through the house. I'll be clear that I'm not going through every single record, but if I have reason to believe he's up to something inappropriate then I'll be able to go back and check.
I think then just being open about why some internet porn is damaging and being available to discuss anything he does find is probably the best option. I almost wonder about giving him a zivity login or something that would let him look at naked people without going further.
It's quite a lot simpler and idiot proof than tortoisegit.
I recently deployed it in a someone similar situation but we aren't really looking to do any kind of branching, just keep a set of shared files on machines in several locations that have a full version history and change log.
I still expect I'll have to go in myself and resolve any conflicts or deal with the situation where we need the version from september, but for day to day commits I think the github tool will work quite well
I have no idea if the state rate is a median or mean rate, but it'd make pretty good sense for the state to express their rate as a median.
Given that, the fact that half the facilities in an area are below the median and half are above is completely unremarkable. It's indeed exactly what you'd expect to find if that area was totally average (by CA standards)
You aren't paying a penny for the typical "smart" tv feature-set. If samsung chose to make a dumb version of a tv then it'd cost at least as much because they'd effectively have the same BOM but end up with a product that was designed for a niche market.
Technology aside, i'm pretty sure TV makers actually collect from netflix/spotify/hulu and whoever else is pre-installed, which ultimately makes the smart product cheaper still.
It's much like adding video features to digital cameras - the extra features bring the final price down.
