Yup, simple.

Might want to find out if the update software runs on Linux first, though.

I worked in field service for 25 years. Never was I not checked up on. Before cell phones it was pagers, and I called in after every call, usually from the desk I was at.

If for no other than to send out the police to find my vehicle lest I die in it, off road in winter.

Professional Engineers do indeed have a code of ethics. Ask the NSPE.

But there are few network engineers that qualify as Professional Engineers. A P.E. is licensed and/or registered, and mostly a graduate of an engineering school.

Cisco certifications are demanding, but I doubt they qualify anyone as a P.E.

But that's almost the same conversion factor as between commercial trucks and cars. By the same token, shouldn't the road taxes be divided up by who is actually doing the damage, with the commercial trucks paying vastly more?

It has a better adblock than regular firefox, which is all I meant. Less chance of malware hitting your system.

It was solved in the 80s and then crapped on in the 90s in the name of making ever-cheaper disposable printers for the purpose of selling million-dollar ink cartridges and print heads.

Why would we need another firefox-based browser designed for security? I thought that's what pale moon was. In the bargain you get 64-bit builds.

So...disable all the features you aren't using to minimize your threat surface?

Their initial page load is only about ten times as long as Google. I can't imagine why I've never heard of them before, and expect to never hear of them again.

As little as possible, and only because men with guns will come to incarcerate you if you don't give them more money to hire more men with guns. Go back and re-read my comment until enlightenment reaches you.

Sorry to hear that, try another driver, an older one if necessary. I have a multitude of nVidia cards, and they all work right if you pin down the right driver. I have 6150 LE onboard in nForce-chipset boards, I have a Quadro 295 NVS in an HP C2D I just bought, might upgrade it to a C2Q for $50, really slick low-power setup there with support for CUDA 6.5 anyway, not too bad. 240GT, 450GTS OC, 750 Ti. Seriously all working great under Linux, but seriously none of them using the suggested driver.

I keep hearing stories about nVidia driver being hard to install manually but I'm doing Linux From Scratch right now (I'm currently starting over after a successful LFS 7.7 build now that I'm educated, and combining CLFS 3 and LFS 7.7 along with building with GCC 5.1 and multilib glibc 2.21, libressl, compiz...) and I've found that the nVidia driver still installs flawlessly on LFS just like it did on say Slack back when the nvidia driver was new. But like I said, you have to go driver hunting. For example the driver which comes with CUDA 6.5 won't build with a modern kernel and/or toolchain, so I had to hunt up a different driver (340.76) to support my NVS 295. And when I got my spanking new 240GT, it wasn't even officially supported by the driver yet but being 3/4 of a 250GTS it did actually work... as long as I installed the next-to-newest driver, and not the very newest one. Then another version or two later they added explicit support for my card.

On the other hand, I tend to try an ATI card every two or three GPUs, and I am always pissed off. I bought a gateway netbook with R690M chipset and that still isn't properly supported several years later. fglrx never supported it (said it was "too old") and radeon still trashes the display when used.

If you want proper Linux support, you're better off with nVidia. If you want open-source driver support for a moderately new card, you may be better off with ATI, but it depends on the specific GPU. If you want open-source driver support for a very new card, that's pretty much just Intel anyway.

History has shown that, like Microsoft, if you give Intel money they will use it for evil. Specifically, it will fund illegal anticompetitive behavior that retards progress in computing.

If you're happy with that, keep giving Intel money. But keep in mind that yes, it really does make you an asshole when you give known assholes money on purpose.

This is someone's cue, apparently mine, to mention Murphy's Law, since this is to what it originally applied. The term was coined after Murphy incorrectly connected a wiring harness. Since the same connectors were used and in the same genders in two places on the harness, it was possible to connect it wrong, and therefore he did. The rest is history.

If it can be installed wrong, then the installer sucks (software) or the hardware design sucks (hardware).
