I still use tinydns, but I've moved on from dnscache to unbound. djbdns was a great tool, clearly built with security in mind, and it forced you to understand how the whole system worked. It struggled with things added later like txt

I was able to use samba to generate these messages such that they looked like they came from other users in the lab. We had a lot of fun with that.

Right, they would have had the time to remove the tethers if it hadn't sank. Like everything else, I'm sure that they require some amount of maintenance and I wonder if that's the sort of thing which can be tested without de

My neighbor, a photographer, was on a tour group which took three helicopters up and only two returned. [1] They had an aftermarket restraint system to tether the passengers in and they were required to cut the restraint to free themselves

I used a lot of these in the late 90s and early 2000s. I guess I'm just old, but a lot of them don't seem that obscure.

I have repaired a number of things at the component level. If you're looking to get started, a lot of consumer electronics are "bad" when they simply need a through-hole capacitor replaced. They are generally visibly bad an

It is not full loan forgiveness, they would still be responsible for the remainder. I find it funny that we tolerate fabricating billions of dollars to bail out banks with TARP, wipe out billions (trillions?) of dollars in tax revenue with

I'm saying that it's hypocritical to tolerate federal assistance in one case but not in another. I live in a safe area, away from forest fires, tornadoes, flooding, and hurricanes, but I'm okay with sending federal aid to ot

There's more than hurricanes, though. What of forest fires, floods, and tornadoes? You can't fault people for living within proximity of trees, rivers, and flat areas.

Do you feel the same way about disaster relief, since you chose not to live that area? I haven't had student loans since the early 2000s and I'm fine with forgiving them or at least reducing interest rates to something very low.

Well this is certainly a passionate response, bordering on off-topic. My comment was about laughing at those with more money than common sense, and you've rambled on about people trying to steal your money. > No. That is hypocrisy.

You said "mostly clean" and I assumed that this was about dirt and debris, and the stuff they're treated with is not visible. There is a stamp on the side which shows how they have been treated, though.

I wonder how much time has to pass before it is socially acceptable to gawk at a shipwreck? I'm not really joking here, there has to be some sort of threshold and I'm not sure how it can be defined.
