Re: Tex evasion?
Why should we avoid TeX? It's damn useful for writing reports, or so I've been told.

Amazon, after memory-holing 1984 and Animal Farm, due to a copyright dispute, have said that they won't remote-remove books.
The Kindle Touch can store 3000 average-length novels. If your books are lost or stolen, then you've lost them. If your Kindle is lost/stolen, you can get a new one, report the old one as lost, and then connect your new Kindle to your Amazon account. It will then spend the next hour or so downloading all the books you bought for the old one.
I think by "put a tab on" our anonymous friend meant "passively monitor the IP traffic to and from" .
In theory, at least with only a concurrent few requests, this kind of traffic monitoring can help track where the data is going.
If there was world-wide co-operation, then after determining where all the servers are located, then all of tem could get raided at the same time,
I left my Xpress Music upsides down on in by back lawn for a week, which was wet and dewy - it fell out of my pocket on a Thur, and I went away for a week's holiday the next day, straight after work.
Found it on the Mon, 10 days later, took it in, removed the protective back cover, the actual back cover, and battery, gently dried it for 24hrs, and it's still working fine 2 years later.
It had an interesting tartan pattern - I assume that's the resistive touch matrix - which slowly faded over the next month.
Nigel, the vulnerability you are thinking of involved guessing what pages the user might have browsed,
and then checking what colour a link to them would be rendered as. Most examples used the root page of common websites.
This sounds like a nefarious page can read the either the full history list of the browser, or a least the backwards/forwards list of the current tab.
Never underestimate the bandwidth of a 40ft container full of microsd cards hurtling down the highway. --- Andrew S. Tanenbaum (paraphrased)
You can fit 40 billion microsd cards into a 40ft container; Given that a microsd card can store a day's worth of recordings, that is probably more capacity than you'll ever need.
Most new ATMs have a small camera in them, pointing at the user.
Do RBS group take a photo of the withdrawer of money via the EasyCash system?
Might be useful incase the transaction is disputed. However, if the withdrawer is known to the account, it would then come down to she-said-he-said.
And how long does the carport take to charge its batteries?
Solar energy is ~1kW / m^2 (directly facing the Sun), panels are around 5-15% efficient at converting that to electricity.
I seriously doubt that the carport has 200m^2 of solar panels, so it must be slowly charging a fixed battery, which then rapidly charges the car's battery.
A "terminal emulator" is UNIX speak for a DOS-box - it's origins are when UNIX machines had multiple serial-port text-only terminal connected to them.
When X windows was created, one of the first apps was xterm, which created a pseudo serial terminal, and started a command shell (command.com in DOS/windows speak) connected to the terminal.
If you wan a graphical display, then you need a full X display. Since the X Window protocol is network based, you can use a low-end machine, run a X server on it, and have the server connect to your Pi, and have the Pi's application displayed on the separate server.
Sigh. And if the other links are running at 80+% of capacity? Traffic will be rerouted, but then the other links are saturated.
Idiots analagy. Assume you work in London and drive to Hemel Hempsted or Milton Keynes, and both the M1 and M11 are closed. Yes, you can divert. But it's not going to be fun…
"Hello David. Thanks for inviting me to this job interview. Before we start, you have access to your company's financial records online. As you know, I want to make sure that you have all the hallmarks of a cooperative employer. I wonder whether you would allow me to look at your company's last 6 months of bank statements..."
No? Didn't think so.
MERs' estimated lifespan was 90 sol (Martian days), or 92 days, 5 hours, 22 minutes and 51.68 seconds by Earth reckoning. However the NASA engineers under-promised and over-engineered, and dust-removal from the solar panels happened more frequently than they'd anticipated, which is why MER-B is still rollin' after 8 years.
