That's not enough, there are cases where the guy IDs the girl and the ID looks good, if it's a fake, you're still a criminal for life. It's very very risky being male.

I've seen a few other cases as well.

That, and they half-ass open sourced it. A whole bunch essential components are still closed source.

You could put the laser on a boat with a nuclear power source. We already have both technologies. The firestrike laser comes to mind, it can do 100kw with an array of them. You'd need a longer ablation time, but the junk would still start moving.

Wow, calm down. You have to work the system sometimes, it's the nature of the beast. A little sugar goes a long way. Failing that, you can also report the up your chain that this Sergeant Major isn't letting you accomplish your mission.

Also, like I said, some IT is run better than others. In those cases, not to far past the IT and Security managers there's somebody with a bird or a star that needs to fix their organization.

'the army' isn't one big magical network, it's actually hundreds of separate AD domains, and there is more than one branch of the military, some fly planes, some sail ships, some get shot at, they all have different ways of finding people to manage those AD domains. Some suck, some don't. I can tell you those that don't suck do indeed install the correct certificate authorities.

I've accidentally flown with my micra (on my key chain of course) through security before, but I do try to avoid it since I'd rather not throw it away if they find it.

This is a really good idea though, unfortunately I mainly need 2 car keys and a house key and I think the car keys are too long. :(

Umm, the person who found the phone did contact the owner. The owner then ignored him.

So the car analogy would be: "Well, I was at this bar and found these car keys, I knew exactly who they belonged to and tried to give them to him. He laughed and said there's no way you have my cars keys. Then he slammed the door in my face, so I sold the car."

Did you even read what he said? We ALREADY paid for it with our taxes in the 90s, instead of building out broadband THEY STOLE THE MONEY.

Why in the world don't you just map your control key to caps lock? I don't know if there's a way to do it in the BIOS, but it's remapped in linux/win7 on my T series and it works great.

Or "Streaming digital video when you have some free time to watch it".

Bah, digitizers that streamed to disk were out way before tivo. I remember throwing an old one for a mac in a dumpster around the time tivo came out.
