Isn't his "crime" releasing documents that Manning stole? Manning, by the way, who had their sentence commuted by president Obama...

Right, but my point is that statement on its own doesn't mean 825,000 people are now living above the poverty line. How many of them moved out of Canada? How many are deceased? All this tells us is the numbers came up different. It do

> "there were 825,000 fewer Canadians living in poverty in 2017 than there were in 2015" from official website. Yeah, that's meaningless. Those 825,000 could have been murdered and that statement would still be true.

The article mentioned that he got the BSOD even booting a recovery environment.

Yeah, but the frequency is the thing. They returned several thousand, which - if legit - means these two were the point of contact for an entire village back in China. I can buy that the guy sending them back may not have known, though aga

Right, but the article states that the students went to other schools, not Oregon State University.

Those are replacement rates I haven't seen since I worked for a beer & wine distributor. The sales guys would have issues all the time, usually after the weekend. What kind of activities do you do that require such frequent repla

Agreed. I would posit that it can't possibly be "hacker-proof" if it hasn't been released into the wild and put in front "hackers."

It could be, sure. But in this instance, anyone who could afford that home could afford any of the other (many) houses up for sale in the area. This is in a touristy area, rather than a major city. I can see this being an issue in a city,

I can't comment to their operational policies, but I have a coworker who owns a house they use for AirBnb, and they make quite a bit of money off of it. Enough to have a house dedicated to AirBnb, and so one of them doesn't need

Conversely, his supporters will use this as a measure of how "in touch" he is with "tech culture." So, on the one hand the stupid stuff will be touted as him being just a dumb kid, but the non-stupid stuff will be touted

Also of note: Cliff Stoll deals with the worm in his excellent _The Cuckoo's Egg_ book, including discussions with Robert Morris Sr (RTM's father), who was chief scientist at the NSA at the time.

That could just be a translation or terminology issue. I've seen folks substitute "intercooler" for radiator, transmission cooler, oil cooler, etc. My guess here is oil cooler.

Well, the road that handles 50,000 people will require a ton more maintenance, that I can assure you. Plus, rarely is the county (as it's almost always the county that covers the cost) putting in the road solely for residential use.

I'm with ya on preferring rural living, but I much prefer that everyone else's "dream home" be in the city. Now if we could only get a better political separation between urban and rural; right now, since the urban areas

My friends who have their own well and septic, and only pay for electricity from "the grid", would be very interested to hear how the folks in urban environments are "massively subsidizing" their home and property, and h

I love RSS-Bridge. I have a local instance running, and it saves me from having to sign up with Twitter, Instagram, etc. Also, tt-rss is an excellent reader.

I've not had to sign for an Amazon package - or just about any other online retailer - in years. The only thing I've had to sign for in the recent past is my bitx40 hf radio kit, shipped from hfsignals.com out of India.

I was gonna say, I have a far _far_ harder time determining my associates age than I do their gender. But that's no surprise, seeing as how only 4.5% of adults in America identify as LGBT; in other words, the vast majority of the peop

That's what I was thinking. The majority still wanted a Republican, and they'll get one, though they won't have as much say in who that person is, exactly.
