Do a search for you server OS + STIG

Then, for each service you’re hosting on that server, do a search for:

Service/Program name + STIG/Benchmark

There’s tons of work already done by the vendors in conjunction with the DoD (and CIS) to create lists of potential vulnerable settings that can be corrected before deploying the server.

Along with this, you can usually find scripts and/or Ansible playbooks that will do most of the hardening for you. Though it’s a good Idea to understand what you do and do not need done.

They help the tires move phlegm from the inner to the outer treads.

I would check two things:

1. Is it a QLED tv? Those are very efficient with the backlight power. QLED only have a blue led backlight and the “quantum dots” in the panel between the backlight and the LCD panel absorb the blue light and emit the red green and blue needed to create the full color spectrum.

2. How many nits of brightness does it produce? I’d check for the specific model on RTINGS. It won’t help OP much if the TV is efficient, but so dim that it’s unusable in their case.

Reflectivity also helps with brightness when viewed in a bright room. The less reflective (matte) the less brightness the TV needs to overcome distracting light sources reflecting on the screen.

Edit: Had to look it up to be sure, normal LED panels use filters that filter red, green, and blue light from a white light source. This means roughly 1/3 of the light from the backlight is filtered away, hence the energy inefficiency vs QLED which uses the energy from the blue light to create the colors.

Intestingly, some DLP projectors use alternating red, green, and blue light sources which strobe on the DLP chip which takes turns modulating the intensity of each color. Less efficient (and bright) DLPs use a single white light source and a color wheel (rotating color filter).

So the ones I’ve seen were a combination of social skills/ emotional intelligence tests and the same type of questions you’d find in an IQ test.

So having a degree shows you have the dedication to see your education through. Having a high GPA can indicate you delivered a consistent and honest effort. But the extra test (especially if it’s timed) can show how good you are at quick thinking. One test I took for a job, you would have about 20 seconds to answer each question if you wanted to get through them all.

It can also gauge if you’re lazy (you guess your way through most questions just to get through them) or dedicated (take your time to answer each question correctly even if that means you won’t get through all 60 or so questions before the 20 minutes are up).

The social skills/emotional intelligence tests (if that’s the right name for them) I’ve seen were basically matching faces to emotions and trying to gauge reactions to events.

So for the “IQ” tests, they want people who are not only educated but swift thinkers (more PC way to say it).

For the social/emotion tests, I’ve seen where otherwise smart and educated candidates can be grating to other employees and even drive other talent away.

I ran into that situation. I’ve even personally blacklisted jobs that might be in the same “team” with a specific person at a very big contractor because even if they’re brilliant, they’re frustrating to work with and have no gauge on how to treat fellow professionals.

I use “team” in quotes because despite there being enough work for 3-4 full time developers, I’ve only ever seen that one person on that team. After having worked with them, I have a really good idea why.

How old is this house?

In 1971, the US National Electrical Code (NEC) required grounded receptacles in all locations of the home (effective January 1, 1974).

You can check with a $6 electrical receptical tester.

It could be that the electrical system was grounded to the waterlines that enter the house (those should definitely be copper).

The ball is in the DEA’s court. Some say it should be rescheduled by Spring:

https://mjbizdaily.com/a-look-at-dea-role-in-marijuana-rescheduling-process/

How long the DEA might take to form a response is an open question, though experts told MJBizDaily that an initial proposed rule could be issued by the end of the year and the process finalized by next spring.

What the DEA cannot do is reject the HHS recommendation outright, said Howard Sklamberg, who once served as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s top enforcement official.

This means marijuana’s days as a Schedule 1 drug are ending. It’s only a matter of when.

The worse thing about that whole ordeal was the hypocrisy.

It’s the foaming agent toothpastes typically use (sodium laureth sulphate - SLS) suppresses the sweet receptors on our tongues.

When you drink OJ right after, the sweetness is suppressed and you only taste the bitter and other flavors.

Edit: SLS also breaks up lipids that may be blocking bitter taste receptors on your tongue.

Just let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then reward yourself by washing it down with a cup of fresh orange juice.

It’s 10 hours long.

It’s on Hulu, Funimation, and Crunchyroll

It has a really good dub

Edit: Might also be on Netflix in Japan and UK

Even better, find someone who talks in an American accent who wants to speak in your old accent.

Agree to bump into each other hard in front of your friends, when you get up, switch accents.

Alternative, celebrate your birthday together and each can wish for the others accent.

Also, server side anti-cheat computation costs the gaming company money.

Though you’d think some forms of cheating would be computationally inexpensive to detect, like teleporting and such.

It depends on when you were around and reading geeky news sites. FUD came up often on Slashdot in relation to Microsoft:

and the SCO v. IBM section are relevant.

The surprising part is the price. Baby colognes have been in a thing in other countries (the ones I’ve seen have a lemony scent). Example:
