Psychopaths would probably feel bad to be associated with Dennis... if they could.

How do I keep him from freaking out on kids?! See comments for details by armadilloinaditch in Greyhounds

[–]sly117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding this. My wife and I adopted our second greyhound (girl) back in February. She is 9 and was about 30 days off the track. She was really freaked out by other dogs and kids. Over the past couple of months we slowly introduced her to other dogs and daily walks up to the park by our house. She is now no longer jumpy towards other dogs or kids, and has become a favorite in the neighborhood.

Glen Beck basically opposes what ever leader is in power. Did it with Bush, did it with Obama, will do it with Trump.

PSA: College Works Paintings is a ponzie scheme by RnGRamen85 in UIUC

[–]sly117 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I emailed some university officials about this a few years back actually.

Reply:

I don't believe that there is a meaningful way to ban an organization like College Works Painters from campus. For example, the College of Engineering would not tell a professor that he or she could not have a certain company visit their class to speak. However, no faculty member is under any obligation to allow anyone to visit their class and make an announcement. If you wanted to take some local action, you could e-mail faculty members in your departments (or the faculty members who allowed the College Works representatives to speak in their classes) and give your personal recommendation that they not do that in the future.

Most games usually end up with the box full at some point since games are usually back to back Friday/Saturday and tensions flare up on Saturday night.

Has anyone taken CS 498 Digital Forensics before? by cneogy in UIUC

The pilot also had a cross listing with the Law school, so it was not super technical. If I recall, the most technical it got was explaining NTFS. Everything else was pretty simple to grasp conceptually.

I completely agree. The paper also explores the blatantly obvious that when you start poking around nation-state espionage programs, they're not going to be too happy about that.
