“…police confiscated a crossbow, a BB gun and various documents among other items, they added.”

Am I a joke to you?

La Quinta?

So, so good.

Once upon a time windows had absolute pathing. When you saved, it went in the directory you were in out where you told it.

Some time ago windows went to path relative to user. So now when you save to ‘desktop’ it could be one of several desktop folders. Windows tries to hide this by mapping ‘desktop’ to your user relative desktop, but it does this at the application level rather than in the base O/S. (Or, it does it on extended file system APIs). Some apps handle it, some apps don’t. If you have multiple users on a PC, it’s a mess.

“Lost” seems a bit too much - how about unmanaged?

Bwahahaha - yes, you are totally right.

Swing-away, not swingline.

Swingline.

Oh wait, my bad. He’s there in the back.

Where’s Gary Busey?!?!

If I read it right: the government is paying for commercial (phone) location data. There are 3 issues:

• creepy: the government shouldn’t have this
• costly: they are buying it with our tax dollars
• comprehensive (?): They are getting everything (money can buy)?

If the government were to require this (like via a search warrant) rather than pay for it it would go through a mountain of legal oversight. It seems like the interpretation is: commercially available = publically available.

I guess what I would want to know next is: who gets access to this?
