Okay, but kiddy porn is abuse. Not the same thing. It's fucked up that kids (15-17) get prosecuted for sending/receiving nudes, though. And I think I will stay away from your kids anyway. They'll probably try to steal my candy and video games.
I find kids are always on my lawn. I yell at them, but they ignore me
This film has been out on general release for 8 days already!
Assuming that you are being serious and not simply being snarky, the article isn't late. Well, at least not for the US audience.
You see, if you look up the release dates for Into Darkness, you will see that the movie was released in Europe first and had a later release here in the US. It was released in the UK on the 9th and was released here in the US yesterday.
How strange, an a nice reversal for a change
This film has been out on general release for 8 days already!
LOL True. It can't do that.
Anyhow... I'm THAT guy. The guy that smokes and doesn't actually think that legalizing it will solve all the world's problems. I'm in favor of legalization and think that it would help solve *some* problems however. It is legal for me to smoke and grow now but I still think it should be legalized and subject to reasonable taxation.
In case you're curious, I got my card because I have issues sleeping. I still have plenty of trouble sleeping but now I get to smoke weed legally. It hasn't helped though it does ease the paranoia to imbibe legally.
I figure it would help lower budgets and stop us from incarcerating people for that particular victimless crime.
I'm the guy that's never smoked, never will, and I find the very idea disgusting. However I'm all for it to be legalised (at home, in public -- like on the street or in parks, it should be banned along with tobacco)
I have problems sleeping too. It's called an 11 month old who's teething.
Pot. Is there anything it can't do?
It can't call the kettle black.
as there is no "caps lock on" indicator on my keyboard
Not a problem, I assume you've mapped caps lock to something useful. I have it as escape personally
keycode 66 = Escape NoSymbol Escape
!lock Caps_Lock (0x42)
clear lock
I understand WHY you should not do this, but quite frankly there is theory and there is practice. And in an era of long obtuse passwords I am thankful!
It's better when you work internationally. Our standard desktop admin password contains an @ sign. Which in most counties is shift-', but in the u.s. it's shift-2. It's not obvious which keyboard layout is in place (you also have to type user@domain, rather than domain\user, as \ doesn't exist as any key on the physical keyboard-mapping we have)
Password theory tells me that
Pa55word!
Is an awesome password. 9 characters, capital, lower case, numbers and symbols.
It also tells me that
thisismyverylongandeasytorememberpassword
is rubbish, (or to be exact, "really good, if you put in a random symbol numbers and capitalise some letters")
Your link states
The philosophy of a design should be to minimize the amount of time a user has to learn the interface and try to be as similar as possible to other interfaces the user has used previously to avoid getting mixed up from time to time.
OK, don't do anything new, copy other interfaces. Great
It then goes on to say:
Almost all websites are like this.
So what it's saying in the second statement is that the standard - new items first - is ubiquitous. The first statement it states this is good. I fail to see the problem.
"On May 3, attackers from the SEA fired off phishing emails to Onion employees, at least one of whom clicked on a malicious link"
What OS did this nameless malware run on?
Malware? What decade are you from?
Send an email with a link to tw1tter.com, they enter their password, you capture it. Job done. All that's needed is a browser.
I know you are kidding, but this actually happens to me all the time. Damn kids.
Did you tell them to get off your lawn?
I can whistle and get a sandwich, now that I'm married.
Sometimes I have to added "sudo" before it, though.
I whistle and get a bowl of bolognaise.
Tipped over my head.
If this device becomes a commodity found in every home, it will spawn a whole new generation of pranksters who will sneak up to houses and "hack" the lighting and appliances with a whistle. We'll wind up needing two-factor authentication for our whistle-houses.
Just like the problem of people waking around firing infrared through the window at your tv and changing the channel?
Really, we have hand held devices that can talk to another on the other side of a planet *without any infrastructure, not even an orbiting ship*?
How many rap lyrics *don't* contain statements that could be construed as a specific threat?

Are you seriously implying that touchscreen is the new, better method of input?
What exactly do you do on a computer? Im gonna guess its not
Or anything, really, that involves rapidly moving data from your brain onto a computer. Or does the new Lightning connector have that capability built into it?
I write code, and do system administration. Obviously I prefer my trusty thinkpad with linux on it, however when I get a phone call with a problem, I love the fact I can ssh in from my phone and restart apache or similar. I've gone as far as using vim to create perl. Once I even ran a debugger.
Obviously a PC is better than a laptop, a laptop is better than a tablet, and a tablet is better than a phone, however the chance of me having access to those devices is inversely proportional to how comfortable it is to use.
What's better, going home from the pub to log on to a 3-screened workstation with all the input you could possibly want, or quickly fixing a problem while your mate gets the next round in?
