So, Plesk then... :)

They are always needed. Sometimes eventually, sometimes quickly, and sometimes right fucking now. But you can never just be OK with old versions for long.

In the sense that both are made by man and imperfect, yes. In the sense that patches come rapidly, no.

Or, they can install the solar everyone else is spending a fortune developing in the plentiful sunlight they have.

Which has nothing to do with a dome, and everything to do with Dubai... The reaction to the dome is unfounded panic. Dubai will separate the people because Dubai separates the people. Dome, or no dome.

I love companies like that! They give me a lot of consulting work when the ivory tower hits the real world.

You see any poor folk in the government? (Actually in government, not working for government...) rich / government are interchangeable terms.

They could be burning it with carbon for profit!

Especially sense most of them are abandoned shortly after release and can NEVER be upgraded.

I was hoping it would show the fields and the difference, such as between CompSci with and without degree. Not. It is CompSci degree vs Burger King? Well, duh...

Look at the price for a nice watch today, like a Tag or Longines, not to mention Rolex. And my Tag has been worn daily for 14 years and still looks good. Why would I replace it for cheap looking trash? But why would I invest in something that can not last?

Almost any motorcycle, for one...

And you think your battery life is bad now...

This is dead on. I have a rather nice and somewhat expensive watch. Yes, it is nice to be able to check the time riding my motorcycle, or to know how long I have been scuba diving. And yes the new watches can do that. But I have had my watch for 14 years, and it is still a nice and stylish piece of jewelry. I also have a very nice watch I inherited that is significantly older. Performs a time keeping function, but is mostly jewelry. But I would have a hard time investing a few grand in a watch that would be obsolete in 2 years, and would need a new battery (or charging) every night. So for me, the answer is "It ain't happening."

Surveillance is only the tool. How it is used (abused) is the key. For example, a camera in the break-room kills good will. Pointedly saying we will be monitoring, but not the break-room increases good will.
