no, you can still do it! You just need balloons that can safely stretch large enough for hard disks and learn how to swallow one hole.

dont quote me on it as im too tired to look it up but i believe a petabyte is 1000 terabytes... and last i checked thats like billions of rods of hogsheds worth of Natalie Portmans being used as station wagons full of congresses.
I don't read XKCD...
That could depend on federal regulations at times. Where I work we had an Intern who needed access to things but had to be denied due to his citizenship. In order to legally give him access he would have had to go though a tedious process that would have taken longer then the time frame he was going to be working with us.
Stained our profession? Really? Have you not met the average Admin? Its rare one you find one whos not a complete prick. He did nothing I woudlnt expect out of more then half the admins ive worked with other the years.
Very little you can do to actually hurt the profession
he was referring to the last part of the summary in regards to ISP's in general. It was asking if other ISP's could follow suet and he replied with the the information that in the US it would be possible for them to do as a result of current rulings.
Now if they asked if other ISP's in Hong Kong could do this he would have been a little murky as although it has to do with a similar issue it would not be covered by the actual question.
So does that mean slashdot should be held liable for all the libel that happens here? The individule being held accountable is one thing however you cant cold a company to blame fore everything users will post. Once you do that its an easy weapon against said company. Dont like them graffiti them so they will be sued and lose money for something outside of there control.
Anonymous does more then let some one hide who they are. It also lets some one who does not wish to create an account partake in a discussion sometimes adding valuable insight.
Side note:
Libel = written
Slander = Spoken
In most cases you can set the port you want in both boxs and giving you a single port forwarded.
password protecting the bios does nothing unless you put a lock on the computer case. password resets are really easy to do on a bios
I looked into making a viable product like this a while back. You run into too many issues.
First you have to set up the bios on all machines to prevent booting off any device other then the hard disk.
Then you have to password the bios
Then you need to put a physical lock on the computer to prevent some one from opening the case and resetting the bios.
If you manage to do this you then need a dope slap because you can always use ssh or even plain email to get files out. Then what about the occasion where you need usb drives.
Your best bet is controlling the hardware. Making sure the machines do not have USB ports or cdroms. if you cant get them without the usb port then you could insert locks into them of some sort that to remove requires specialized equipment and a code.
i would love it as well, I could pay myself jack squat having company vehicles and supplied food ext. so that all the money i earn would be protected from taxes
but think of all the accountants and lawyers who would lose there jobs as an effect
if this was the case wouldn't you then need to look into how the peddles are placed?
I remember one of my parents old cars where you could easily get your foot stuck under the opposite peddle while moving your foot from one to the other. My dad had always told me to be careful of that and I thought he was just pulling my chain until the day it happened to me.
Either way there appears to be an issue, weather its hardware, software, or training. If its training then the question must then be why does this car require special training compared to others and what is said training.
Although I kind of wonder if this wouldn't be better for Myth Busters...
that highly depends... a programmer is not necessarily a software engineer and a software engineer is not necessarily a programmer although commonly is.
Yes, because culture has nothing to do with it.
One good reason why computers can do more work than people is that they never have to stop and answer the phone.
