Thankfully, the 2019 Honda Fit I got does not have this feature. The Sport model had it, and was one of the reasons I decided against it. Old school keyless entry via fob button and traditional key ignition

IPSEC is a good example where its lacking. Its in desperate need to be updated with modern config examples and documentation, especially with newer keying daemons like FreeSWAN. Maybe the time gods will be kind to me in December and I can

I get the unflavored whey too, and personally, I can be quite mercenary / practical about my food when I need to :) But I am a bit suspicious as to the bio-availability of these powders. Are the proteins really as good (or even good en

as others have said, that does seem pretty low. I am 220lbs (tallish at 202 cm) and was eating about 120g. When I increased it to 175g I found my recovery was much better and and even though I was increasing my weekly distances (I run ultra

back in 89, I worked as a farm hand for a season which was a fascinating experience for many reasons. But I remember the farmer complaining about the tomatoes grown for export were tasteless and devoid of nutrition and he hated them with a

Not sure if it will fit your needs or not, but for long term storage on single HDs (and back in the day on DVD), I would create par files with about 5-10% redundancy to guard against data loss due to bad sectors. http://parchive.

also depends where you are. If physical space is at a premium, extending a community's landfill's life by diversion can be worth the cost.

If you google "Avastin breakthrough" (remember, we lay people have far more time with Dr. google), its still touted as this miracle drug, and is even being pushed as a treatment for non colon cancers of which there is little evide

As a lay person, its hard not to see the word "breakthrough" as essentially meaningless as its so overused. Insulin, and the polio vaccine I can see in that category... But there have been so many drugs like Avastin (which sadly

This can be difficult as some updates can break applications. PHP is problematic that way for our customers on servers that we manage for them. Its not as bad as it used to be (e.g. register_globals), but updates can break customer apps.

CVE-2014-0224 is the only one that really impacts OpenVPN (No DTLS nor SSL_RELEASE_BUFFERS etc) and as others have said, if you are using OpenVPN chances are you are making use of TLS-AUTH which helps mitigate MITM issues to a reasonable de
