Extra cost? If your admins are good they can do it themselves using the tools they already have. Added complexity? If this is to hard your guys arenâ(TM)t very good.

Yes you can. I assume most sites do automate certificate renewal. If nothing else you can use letsencrypt to handle it automatically and for free.
Conveniently you could read either the kernel or the actual comment and get your answer. RDRAND is XOR's with the random data and does not contribute to the entropy pool.
Top Gear had a pre-scripted show, where they decided in the end that the Tesla would run out of power, so they had a shot of their people pushing the car, even though it still had plenty of power in its batteries. Top Gear claimed it was OK doing this, because they were showing something that could happen, even though it didn't.
The idea is that a specially crafted payload could root the box instead of crashing the system. Right now the payload only crashes the system because the researches didn't spend the time making it worse.
Is it still not pork if we don't need the military base, but we want it in $SENATOR's home state so there is more cash in the area?
I am also still alive, I've been licensed for a year and 4 months, and at only 32 years old, I expect to be around for quite a while longer.
Thank god. VB 6 is horrid. I am still trying to rehabilitate people who spent to many years programming in it.
That's the cool thing, I don't have to be careful, there is this large company called Microsoft that does that for me. For the record, my code is currently running on every flavor of windows from XP to Win7, (OK no XP 64 bit, but everything else) and it works just fine, I have never had an incompatibility. Now I do have a couple of apps that also run under Linux, and mono has a few rough edges, but it gets better all the time.
which is a life time in terms of technology
A lifetime in terms of computer technology. In terms of phone technology, where you might install a phone system and not really touch it for 10 years... 2 years is very short.
not affecting the majority does not imply not screwing the userbase
Yes it does.
Customers are not only the majority slice.
No, but the customer base is. Hence the term base, as in the most substantial part; not the fringe elements or corner cases.
Actually the userbase is all of the users.
The NIMBYs are going "I told you so" around Tokyo right about now.
Only because they are idiots. So far no one has died from radiation, and it looks like no one will. Instead we have 11000 confirmed dead and another 17000 missing from the disaster, but because people are idiots they only talk about the damn reactors. We are going to have more deaths this summer from rolling blackouts in a heat wave, then will happen because of these reactors.
Where there's a will, there's a relative.
