802.1x at the ISP? That'd be a very interesting proposition.

Based on some of the complaints (anecdotally) I've heard about public land use, I think it's a mistake to assume cartel weed is brick/low-quality weed. They're clearly engaged in growing locally, if only because you elim

Google Wallet lets you send money to individuals, even as an attachment in GMail, but not CC backed; you need to back it with a debit card IIRC. Disclosure: I work for Google, but not on Wallet.

ICBW, but I believe Ctrl-[ is already available, and works the same. For me, having remapped Capslock to Ctrl, this is a dead simple way of hitting Esc without going as far off homerow.

I come from the RC tradition as well, though we didn't baptize our children. I can think of exactly two sets of people in our diverse set of friends (and they are good friends) whom we might ask for this kind of consideration, but re

This is how Cryptonomicon was for me. Anathem, I read after that, and I kinda understood what I was getting into, so I got through it much more more quickly.

Not necessarily, particularly depending on what you specifically want to treat. If you go poking around weedmaps.com (well, after their site starts functioning again :/), and look into strain-specific details there, there absolutely ar

I think there's also significant value to the supply chain if there's evidence that certain strains have a committed market over time. You get better informed decisions on what to deprecate/not grow in the future, and if you

I'm not sure this is what GP was addressing, but there is a very real phenomenon of getting so depressed that you can't even manage to kill yourself. You actually see increased risk of suicide at the beginning of therapy for som

So what you're saying is that they learned their lessons from the VeriSign Payment Services acquisition, and learned not to actively try to break things that work? (Yes, still very, very bitter about that. If you have a different per

I used to work at PayPal (6+ years ago), specifically in Merchant Technical Support. Speaking strictly for myself, I hated IPNs too, and having come from another payment gateway with a similarly unreliable out-of-band notification system, I

In addition to what's said below, if the prosecutors are being driven by federal/national-level concerns, then the goal is probably less about punishing a bank's officers, and more about getting more information on hostile na

Yes, but now you can at least plan/schedule downtime according to your particular needs, and unscheduled downtime is at least a little more transparent to you. Sounds like that's what the original article wanted, in any case.

Not necessarily. At least in Gnome-terminal, Ctrl-Alt-(mouse drag) is a block select that works just fine for copy-paste out of a vertical split. Or do the rotation thing. Or do the copy-mode thing. More than one way to skin this cat; just

1) Your work will survive the need to restart your WM, or X itself. Pretend for a moment that you run NVidia drivers, which kill X hard, and you're dumped to GDM or similar with no warning. Your state is preserved. 2) Your work/st
