Here’s a different picture. Put in your 20y at NSA right out of school. Get retirement benefits, and then move to the private sector, where they pay a premium for NSA experience. Or, do contract work for NSA since you already have clearance

If I were permitted to put something on your server that could put you in legal jeopardy, wouldn't you want to know what I'm putting on your server?

I use Logitech’s software on three macs, and my honest evaluation is that it gets the job done, but just barely. Key cons: - Yes, it asks for a firewall rule, which I simply deny with no negative consequences. Still, it’s concerning that it

You ever been in a car with a driver’s seat that has way too many options, so you can never really get the right position? That’s why I’ve never tried Steermouse. I’m afraid I’ll spend all my time trying to get all the settings right and co

That’s the best synopsis of the cache options I’ve ever read. It’s one of those things I have to pull documentation on every time I use it, but the way you just explained it makes so much sense that I might just memorize it now. Edit: And n

I think you nailed it, but I want to reframe it just a little. There have always been limitations on free speech, especially when it presents a danger to others. That’s exactly what the talking heads are doing, and their speech absolutely s
