IIRC that would be two. But that is not the correct way to look at it. How many Mars landers were lost after they left the Earth orbit, but before they were restarted to enter Mars orbit? I believe that number is zero. Mr. Newton is driving these craft now. It is very improbable for a mission to fail while cruising in sleep mode.
I'm about two year in (two weeks shy) and my last check (last month) said 8-9 more years at the rate I'm using it. I was told at installation that five is the average. I think the only time I'm paced any more is when I sleep, just due to my natural sleeping rate being lower than the floor they've set. I'll have to ask.
Used the card about a week after I got it due to my place of employment at the time. Haven't used it at an airport.
Just another reminder to use strong passwords, password managers, and change them often. It's a pain, but it's the reality of the digital world.
What good is a password manager when the answers to your security questions are public knowledge?
Who says you need to tell the truth on those questions?
Q: "What is your mother's maiden name?"
A: "Purple monkey dishwasher."
Damnit, time to change the security question on the password manager for my luggage.
Umm driverless cars are definetly something that we should do. Humans frankly suck at driving and countless lives could be saved if human drivers were replaced with more reliable machines.
Actually, the number of fatalities isn't countless.
Just gonna leave this here.
ooo, look, I included links for my assertions instead of just pulling numbers out of my hat.
You must be new here.
But will it run Crysis?
Orange is the best color.
It's the maintenance man. He knows I like orange.
Also, and on-topic, Deus Ex is a must-play game.
Came to instigate a reinstallation. Saw that I was beaten to it. Left satisfied.
Everytime someone mentions Deus Ex, someone reinstalls Deus Ex
For all you know, he's on the team that's trying to stop you from using chromium on netflix.
I work at a large university. IT gave us two options for operating systems on our servers, Redhat or Windows. They also offer a DIY vmware setup. Rather than having IT manage our servers, I have to do it just so we can run Ubuntu. It is impossible to run certain packages like OpenCPU on Redhat because no one ever bothered to port it. Before you jump to the conclusion that linux is linux, it's really not. You can blame Ubuntu for going off the beaten path or Redhat for not keeping up with the times but some software packages only run on one linux distro without considerable effort. Conversely, the only supported backup solution for our servers is IBM tivoli crap and I went through hell to convert the rpm based installer into something that would work on Ubuntu LTS. IBM doesn't get that Ubuntu (or debian derived) distros are popular now either.
As a *BSD guy, I find both Ubuntu and Redhat irritating but at least ubuntu has apt-get. Funny thing is I started on Redhat 5.0 in '99 or so as my first *nix like os. Back then they had a desktop that didn't suck though.
I almost closed out my comment by saying that I was channeling you.
C'mon, to a Yuropeen, Ohio and California are exactly the same thing, but Scotland and England are totally different.
Now this is better commentary than that which you've been putting out of late.
Unfortunately, isn't this laziness vs. strongman similar to the ignorance vs. evil-genius dichotomy pushed forth under Bush II by his opponents?
The Beretta 92fs is a dream. The 96, not so much. Much preferred is the Glock 22c. That little c actually makes a difference to me. A big difference. YMMV, and those suckers stopped making them, IIRC.
That's not his base; that's his owners.
That's RACISS!
