The amount of paid on the boat was right, but in which countries currency was was wrong. So it was like saying he paid 10K Euro when it was supposed to be 10K Rupees. Euros to rupees trade at 1:75 which is a big difference in cost. Obviously this is exaggerated, and he admittedly says that the Canadian and US dollar are currently trading close to 1:1, but that has not always been the case, as I remember traveling to Canada years ago, and the rate was 1:2.

I have to say, I hope the best for the USPS and it's workers, but the first thing that came to mind is a getting a start-up off the ground isn't cheap. Seems like a clothing line would be even more since there are goods involved meaning clothing stock, building, machines, workers, management, marketing etc... I know you need to spend money to make it, but unless someone is sure this is an idea that is worthwhile and not a pipe dream, it seems risky. How much money for all these things have been dumped into this idea that could have been used to keep the agency afloat for that much longer. Seems like one more piss poor idea after another coming from the USPS.

Really informative. Try troll bate!

That is no ones fault other then your own for picking a bad company to work & career to work in. Stop trying to project your crap on everyone else. I have NEVER had problems taking leave / vacation and as that is both as a government worker and as a private citizen. Do I always get the week I want, no, but I always get vacation.

Your doing something wrong, try reconsidering who you work for and what you do with your life.

"in a manner that can be quickly and conveniently unlocked by an average user?"

Not sure why I'm bother answering this obvious troll but then use 6 characters. That still brings up the complexity /strength enough to make unbreakable before the limit hits. Please do some reading if you want protection there is some required effort above and beyond a 4 digit number PIN, it's a risk assessment for the OP to make.

LOL see it back fired for me, probably because I'm in a swing state. I'm also independent & voted in the republican primary for the same reason. Now I get flyers, postcards, & door to door petitioners for both parties.

Of course sorry that was silly of me. If the hash is made of arabic character directory names & registry paths your right.

So what identifiable parts could be used? MAC I suppose although as you said that could be spoofed if known. What about the processor clock, are there any uniquely identifiable parts besides the network card?
