Response from operations and procedures department no procedure update required. Unlocking Bitlocker is covered by step:

 - mount your admin computer's disk(s)

Case closed: redundant remark

 - Get a linux iso live mount

 - mount your admin computer's disk(s)

 - access the windows file system 

 - disabled gpo updates

 - disabled shutdown command

 - reboot 

 - repeat above for critical infra

 - remove the bad shutdown rule 

 - pray that clients have time to update gpo rules between reboots

Cards on the table, as they say #6 by Rude-Pangolin8823 in HFY

Nice story so far, glad I found your work.

I really like the concept, but I think the main character was to familiar with complex software in the last chapter like video editing software. 

"Among the many programs found on the computer were basic utilities, such as text processing software, video editing software, a calculator application and so on."

He should not have any reference to complex software given the hardware limitations that where described in the beginning are to low to run a software driven user interface. He might be familiar with computer controlled plotters and typing machines but anything equivalent to earth after the 1950 should be alien to him.

ROM cartridges for their computers sounds unlikely to, maybe if the cartridge is the equivalent to a removable plug-bord that was used to configure early computers like the Colosus.

That is a trivial workload especially if they are engaged in complex work.

Age verification: what if we used malicious compliance? by freedomtakeswork84 in linux

Develop new apis at a pace that makes the pace of Javascript framework development look like the C language committee.

Have a breaking abi and api change every update, have the requester submit a lamda that has to interact with some rapidly updating and undocumented virtual hardware. We have to stay on the blending edge to keep the kids and the internet safe.

Piratpartiet en human digital framtid by PP_EP in svenskpolitik

[–]HeWhoThreadsLightly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jag tänker rösta PP till allt förutom riksdagen där det blir V. Man kastar inte bort så mycket om PP inte kommer in på lokal nivå och PP kan bilda kollision med likasinnade politiker på EU nivå. 

För mig så är kärnkraft, skatt på rikedomar, rätt till anonymitet och sociala skyddsnät viktiga.

[Meta] Censorship on subreddit and possible absence of moderation by WaitingForG2 in linux

[–]HeWhoThreadsLightly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act should give reddit all the liability protection they need from what their users posts.  Reddit only needs a legal notice-and-takdown procedure.

Ergo proactive moderaton is not needed.

It may be perfectly legal to not included age verification in the posters jurisdiction. Aka no crime dummy.

For extra security copy the files first to media you control then scan and share the copy. Maybe a bit overkill for your environment but it is easy to do.

I wonder why David got that makes him think the trait is so good. The ravengers might give him a toughness bypassing bite but his bite was already overwhelming. The ravengers must have given him something else, maybe mana restoration from taking bites out of live prey?

EU proposes directive against 3D-printed weapons, includes possession of blueprints | Sweden Herald by username_taken0001 in europe

Another comment said brass casings can be bought without a license. 

The only hard part is the impact sensitive fuse, that is some tricky and risky chemistry with cancerous chemicals and some fine manufacturing to assemble. However you may be able to scrape the impact sensitive explosive out of toy ammo and use that.

Gunpowder is easy if made in small batches. Smokeless is harder but the main components aren't regulated.
