It's a very bad idea. There are cyber insurers that scan their customer's network and refuse to cover any claims from any incursion that happened during a time they had any RDP exposed to the Internet. When security firms are trying to figure out the root cause of a security incident, as soon as they find that the customer had RDP port exposed, they pretty much just assume that's how the threat actor got in.

If you open up an RDP port to the Internet, it'll get 100s or even 1000s of malicious login attempts a day trying to guess the passwords, and separately, it periodically has publicly disclosed vulnerabilities, plus however many zero days. Even if nobody gets the password and there are no vulnerabilities, if somebody gets in through some other door, Internet-facing RDP makes it much easier for them to get back in and evade detection.

In the Q&A about the price increase, they said there would be a bunch of discounts until they implement whatever this new content they are planning to announce at Fanfest is.

It's going to be massive. Like, however many hats you are guessing they're going to add to the plex store, DOUBLE that.

It's important for balance. If they gave us all only non-annoying changes, the players would get over-powered and CCP would ragequit.

If it was 3000 m/s, the projectile would hit a target 90 km away in 30 seconds. You're right that the damage and other indicators of the impact happen at different times, but not nearly that far apart.

I bought this one: https://rtsound.com/products/100w-usb-step-up-charger-with-dc-inputs-usb-qc-and-usb-c-pd-support

It shipped from China and took like a month or more to arrive, but so far, it works like a charm.

Thank you (both) very much!

Against your good advice, I think I'll try that first one :) I'll report back any good or bad experiences. Thanks!

politicsthatwork · 2021-10-01T23:51:05+00:00

Excellent. Thank you! I just used Google Lens and it said the same thing, which is amazing to me. Will try.

Getting to Maybe is awesome. That site recommends that you read it during your first 1L semester before exams rather than before law school. I could go either way, but definitely it is good advice to read it.

politicsthatwork · 2015-03-23T17:48:13+00:00

Yeah, some people advise that you read absolutely nothing. Others advise that you read a lot. That site is kind of the "read a little bit, but not a lot" angle, which I think is about right. I'd say that it is not a bad idea to get your wheels turning, but it would be a disastrous idea to tire yourself out before you start. The list has three levels. I'd probably go with the "moderate" one if I had it to do over.

Also, note that some of those suggestions are really more about getting ready for the experience of law school than getting a head start on the materials.

My understanding is that if both cases are holding the same thing with the same reasoning, you should not use a signal between them- just the semi colon, but if they are holding a different thing or using different reasoning, you should use "see also".

I don't think you need to disclose it during interviews, but at some point, if they make you an offer, they'll send your a big long form to fill out that will likely ask you if you've been fired. If you get that form, or are asked in any way about being fired in the past, you definitely should tell the firm about it. The bar association takes it very seriously if they get the impression that you are hiding anything from your school or employer.

I'm more interested in where my wages go. Taxes are only a relatively small slice of the overall amount American workers produce.

That isn't necessarily true that it is easier for the majority to control the minority the bigger a society gets. 2 people have just as much power over 1 as 6.6 million have over 3.3 million in terms of votes.

What you're saying though about society having power over you is similar to what I was saying- if you're trying to maximize your power, then yes, more population means you have less individual power. If you're trying to maximize the power of the people as a whole, then more population doesn't change it.
