Rather than slowing things down, set up a real alt, not using one of your two spare character slots. If you're making that much, you can buy two plex's a month in game, right? Train the other one to do cool shit, but take your time. One of my corp mates has an alt that he's done _nothing_ with except train core cert to elite. Now that he has core at elite, all he has to do is train up whatever skills he wants for whatever ships and weapons. That doesn't take all that long.

Or, go whole hog and train up to fly a titan.

That's possibly true - and totally cool on the reordering of things - that makes more sense. Tom Petty is actually a bit of an asshole, but I agree with him on this, and not just for political reasons. As an artist, I would be horrified if someone took one of my songs and used it to promote a different message than the one I had intended.

Comment Did she follow the rules? (Score 1) 27

Sadly for Mr. Petty, most record companies (who would sell their grandmothers for a nickle) have a straight license for a fee model with songs that any politician can legally pay for and then use. Did Bachmann pay up, or is she outright stealing the song? No, I didn't read the F***ing article - I've seen enough of her DERP in the last two days. First the Jown Wayne Gacy / John Wayne "confusion", and then insisting that a 9 year old boy who later when on to fight slavery was a "founding father". This is just par for the course for Derpchele Derpmann.

"IT departments everywhere noted huge gains in productivity today, as LulzSec announced it was taking Eve Online, offline. 'We don't know what happened exactly, but the whole tech crew start screaming about their crack being gone, and suddenly things started to get fixed. Oh - and they all even took showers.'"

Who is your QSA? Who ever it is, they're giving you terrible advice. That should have been as simple as pointing out to them that the website was not part of the card holder environment, and as such, PCI didn't apply to it anyway. If they don't know that, you don't want to deal with them anyway.

Also, PCI is strictly mandatory - if you want to accept credit cards. Mandatory compliance came into the picture in 2008.

Lastly, with the new 2.0 spec, you are supposed to be taking a risk based approach to compliance, which makes pretty much everything you've posted to the contrary laughable.

Ask them what their security plan is? How often do they conduct internal and external security scans? Do they conform to any security standards, like NIST, SANS, or even PCI? Also, ensure you have permission to conduct your own security scans, and ask them if you get results where there is a CVSS score of 4.0 or greater.

I think I speak for most of civilized society when I say, you can't articulate your points at all, you don't grasp simple logic (the absence of proof of something is not proof of something in and of itself), and you're extremely annoying. Please go die in a fire. You Have Been Trolled. Fuck Off And Die. Hope That Helps.
