lol at the crawl over there. Americans are all of a sudden super loving concerned about pretrial diversion and rehab and 'compassion' poo poo because it's white people who are being popped for opiates more than anybody else

ugh geez tell me about it. I watched a bbc doc that just released about a WEALTHY town next to me and for the first 15 munutes i was like yea that sucks but then they showed the chearleaders and how one of their friend's friend got arrest RIGHT THERE IN SCHOOL and had to go to rehab or something immediately and I immedalty jumped to devils advocate and thought how would that work on the east side - oh, loving max term adult sentence if possible.


e: for the brits http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0457122/smack-in-suburbia-americas-heroin-crisis

Then iheartradio is running these super caricatured opiate awareness commercials and just missing the point imo

the one thing i liked about that place was that they were cool with keeping lights set at chillmode delta/trap house levels. i run a lot so get plenty of sun and this is florida so too much sun to begin with so when i get to work i'm ready to don my headphones with a carafe of coffee and snuggle down to run my fingers over my keyboard for many hours like im finger tweaking carrie ann moss android nipples in the matrix. i'll dig up some more pics. i think i have some of me doing some shameful poo poo like break dancing or whatever

in design school some of my classmates gave a presentation where they had a bunch of adjectives to describe their product, and they had little icons for each

one of the adjectives was "seamless" and for whatever reason they decided to use a picture of a girl in a "seamless" bra. college kids, whatever.

the professor was amaaaaaazingly insulted by this for some reason though and spent several minutes after the presentation ripping them apart, yelling at them for being unprofessional and not taking the task seriously etc.

It's too difficult to manage keys. We prefer our existing way.


Because once a month, the walmart root password changes. Yes, you telnet in as root. And they won't send the new password over electronic means.

So, every vendor that needs access sends a rep over to the home office. They sit in the lobby and wait their turn. After 1-3 hours, you are called back to the Operations department and they write the new root password on a Post-it note. "Don't lose this," they say.

And that is how the biggest retailer in america circulates root to every server in every store in the United States.

dude, i worked at a classified lab for years where we had both siprnet (SECRET) and unclas machines on every desktop (240+ desks) and was the sole systems guy for all of our unix/linux machines to include the networking gear like the crypto that we had to re-key once per month

i personally KNOW how lovely it is and then you have republicans on the one hand deriding the gov workers for lovely work but when hillary goes out to a private free-market firm they act like the gov system is the bastion of security and correctness
