If you are not willing to spend the 30 minutes it takes to set up your own CA and and deploy that cert on your own desktop, please hand in you "network admin" card immediately and seek alternative employment.

Raising the minimum wage will only make the problem worse. When the minimum wage goes up, there are less jobs.
Some people care about poor people so much, they do everything they can to make more of them...
Do you really want to live in a world run by Taco Bell?
This is just plain foolishness, and you've been watching Demolition Man too much. Nobody's talking about completely eliminating government, but you jump to a world run by Taco Bell--a company owned by Pepsi, which plays second fiddle to Coke. Taco Bell couldn't force you to eat at Taco Bell even if every restaurant was Taco Bell. The only way that could happen is if the government mandated that every restaurant had to be Taco Bell.
Golf! What a great idea!
You got it!
In general if you look at the donor list, they all come from the same strata of society but represent opposing cultures within that strata. Granted, picking either party is a vote for the wealthy controlling the country, but they are still a fairly diverse bunch and you can pick and choose who's goals align with your own.
Yeah, either you can vote for the Democrats, who create new regulations to freeze competition out, or you can vote for the Republicans, who give away corporate welfare to freeze the competition out. That's why it always makes me laugh when people say libertarians are for big business, when libertarians would be the first to eliminate regulatory barriers to entry & corporate welfare. The reason corporations are so powerful is because they're propped up by the government, but most people just don't get that.
When you're done playing, kindly place it next to the Kinect, will ya?
HoloLense has a killer app that will draw many to it, if you think about it for a minute--it's a 4 letter word. Not sure if it would compete with VR, but it would be slightly less conspicuous.
"Happiness is a warm puppy." Even Charlie Brown and Lucy knew this. An image of a dog is far from the real thing.
I wonder if I could put the dog on the floor, say "follow me," then put the HoloLense on my dog. I'm sure he'd have fun chasing it for a while, or at least I'd be entertained.
I've yet to have anyone explain clearly why having the internet under the same regulatory regime as the telephone system would be a, net, positive thing.
Because the FCC is calling it "net neutrality" - that's why. Just like the "Patriot" Act inspires patriotism. See? I'm sure I'll get modded troll, but I don't care. Just don't complain to me when the FCC messes up internet for everyone if you supported this under the guise of net neutrality.
You don't get that with Kickstarter. All you get is a promise for a future product. Consequently, the "investors" see themselves (accurately) as customers. And with that perception comes certain expectations, like wanting to get your money back if the product is not delivered or not delivered on time.
I've only contributed to one Kickstarter. It was called "Code Hero", and I contributed $13.37 ("1337 contributor") for which they promised early access to the beta. After I played the beta, I knew the project was going to tank, but I always saw this more as a charitable donation than anything else.
this is not the civilisation clone you're thinking of... this one here is purely played online using a HTML5 capable browser...
Actually, it is. They just made a new version of it using HTML 5, but it is the same game.
That's because nothing is really rated as bulletproof...
What if the bullets are made out of Aluminium oxynitride too?
You pay for channels you don't want so you can watch the few channels you do want.
The communications director at a local cable service provider once told me the problem with ESPN: it's the most expensive channel in their entire cable lineup. They would love to separate it out and treat it a-la-carte like HBO, but their agreements don't allow for it. Either everyone gets it, or no one does. And he said everyone gets it, because whenever the feed goes out for that channel, their switchboards light up like a Christmas tree. (He also mentioned that the other channel that customers most hate to lose is Lifetime, though that's not nearly as expensive.)
It's extortion, plain and simple. Though ESPN is only partly to blame...the NFL, NBA, and NCAA are also guilty for making game broadcasting rights so pricy.
i always thought it would make a great conspiracy dystopian story where the superrich, with everything automated, don't need us anymore so they simply kill us all off the earth reduced to 700,000 souls from 7,000,000,000 in a matter of days (some sort of highly infectious agent?)
Sounds like the plot of Helix.
Numeric stability is probably not all that important when you're guessing.
