Exactly. And Bureaucracy doesn't necessarily suck on it's own. When it's used properly it protects people who are unable to protect themselves due to funding or ignorance.

Another agency taking the well worn path which Trump and his staff have made into an art form - just lie. The Trump base doesn't care. The Republicans in Congress may care but they are too concerned with repealing ACA and not getting p

Exactly. There's too many rootkits and other malware that won't be revealed by most of the common malware and virus scanners. A business that transacts with protected data should never try to remove malware - these systems need to

And this highlights the fallacy that Amazon Glacier is a backup service. It's not - it's an archive service. Something that takes a few days to recover is not backed up. I agree the other products are indeed backups as they provid

It's a shame that he didn't get more chances to branch out and ended up having to squeeze his "zombie worlds" to make a living. Frankly I enjoy Knightriders far more than NotLD. The characters are more developed and the

Actually the film lab (owned by Romero) forgot to put a copyright on the release prints. Not sure "placed into the public domain" is exactly accurate - more like the file was not correctly copyrighted so it lapsed into the public

The goal is to put the U.S. Cyber Command under military responsibility so that Trump and his military can launch cyber attacks as well as "detect" attacks and blame whomever they wish. Although folks are usually down on the NSA t

Sadly political and religious leanings shade both the quality of schools as well as the perception of schools. Have a school district with good curriculum - strong science, math, history. Good health hygiene (ie, sex education) and then ask

Seems like every 5 or 10 years we have a big burst of Amelia Earhart interest and nostalgia. Guess I don't understand - there's pretty conclusive evidence of her crashing and the circumstances of that. Just grist for someone'

Oh my goodness. Do the people who write this stuff actually believe that what works for them is going to work for other people? If that were the case the world would be full of well adjusted people who get up at 5am. First of all the tiny f

Isolated cases of food poisoning are not common. If food at a restaurant is contaminated most likely multiple people will get ill. The question is: will people report it to health authorities so that a pattern can be discerned?

We'd love to know if Trump pays taxes but he's far to evolved to release his tax returns like other Presidents and candidates. I won't even comment on his complete lack of ability to be a President...

Frankly I'd trust the government more than I'd trust an HR rep. At least in the government you have people who believe they work for the citizens of the US. Well perhaps the previous administration anyways...

Really? I guess the people you passed were not paying much attention. Inkjet prints flat money - US currency is intaglio printed which makes the print raised. Plus you can't duplicate the micro printing, the security thread or the colo

US consumers are very conservative when it comes to money. I'm not sure why exactly. Plus no one prints more bills than the US Treasury so some security features would be too expensive or wouldn't hold up for the period of time ne
