You greatly underestimate the risks of sedating a dangerous animal, both to human and to the animal. Ask a vet or wildlife officer. It’s not like the movies. Also if they are checking for certain brain diseases, there is simply no way to test an animal and keep it alive.
The argument for Buddhism in a nutshell
Exactly!
One time I was deleting a user from our MySQL-backed RADIUS database.
DELETE * FROM PASSWORDS;
And yeah, if you don’t have a WHERE clause? It just deletes everything. About 60,000 records for a decent-sized ISP.
That afternoon really, really sucked. We had only ad-hoc backups. It was not a well-run business.
Now when I interview sysadmins (or these days devops), I always ask about their worst cock-up. It tells you a lot about a candidate.
Hasten the day
Exactly what kind of *ussy is “sussy”?
Diary of an Appthecary is a real delight

If you have civil and criminal causes of action, it’s often expedient to pursue the criminal one first, as it’s admissible as evidence in the civil case—the reverse isn’t usually true.

With the facts of the criminal case, I don’t think they would have any difficulty at all getting a legal team to go after EBay. It’s a risk/reward thing for them and the pockets they’d be going after are very deep.
Yup. In the car world “ricers” are specifically upgrading cars with purely cosmetic add-ons. They are stereotyped as using Asian cars and/or being Asian. The term should be strangled in the crib.
It shocks the conscience, but it’s far from shocking news.
Expropriate the rails back. They never should have been in private hands.
“Scissor stairs” is what he called them in the video.
I get the irritation but this is 100% normal practice for any news outlet. They leave off “allegedly” and if the defendant is found not guilty they can sue for defamation.
