Can I ask you to start descriptions capitalized? It kinda looks untidy if there's later capitalized acronyms or multiple sentences. And please don't rewrite parts that explain the acronym used in tag name. That short description displays on tag hover, complete wiki only if you click on "learn more". I think that having a handy explanation for acronyms is helpful.
BTW why is there no "accept and edit" and "reject and edit" buttons with tag wiki suggested edits? They're there for all other suggested edits.
or maybe they are available only to 20k users?
actually, come to think of it, I don't remember seeing them on space either
another negative reason to not consume milk would have probably been sufficient for the remainder of my last new years resolution of not consuming such things

@RоryMcCune wut, I found 2. And that was after a discussion at the time... Though for the record, I still stand by it. whats wrong with budget? It is definitely a non-negligible factor in security management.
@Flyk you mean donuts
right, I need a quick summary of everything that happened here since Sunday night. Go.
I have a list of things for you to consider, actually
no doubt you'll find plenty of reasons not to but I figured I'd try it once anyway
merge + synonym [tag:sso] into [tag:single-sign-on] merge + synonym [tag:bot] into [tag:botnet] merge + synonym [tag:nsa] into [tag:government] merge + synonym [tag:risk] into [tag:risk-analysis] merge [tag:awareness] into [tag:user-education] merge + synonym [tag:end-user] into [tag:user-education] merge + synonym [tag:devops] into [tag:operations]
merge + synonym [tag:syn] into [tag:tcp] merge [tag:algorithm] into [tag:hash] (some questions need algorithm removing first, [some need a new tag](http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/31000/does-chaos-theory-have-any-practical-application-in-computer-security)) merge + synonym [tag:upgrades] into [tag:patching] merge + synonym [tag:rdp] into [tag:remote-desktop] (unless you're keeping it split for the individual protocols but then 'remote-desktop' *is* RDP, there is [tag:rdesktop] for rdesktop, for example)
merge + synonym [tag:federation] with [tag:authentication]
query [tag:third-party] - everybody is a third party on the internet query [tag:passwords] and [tag:credentials] - same thing, no? query [tag:international] - this doesn't need to exist, everybody is international to someone, it has no context that can't be explained in the body of the question
tags to remove [tag:budget] [tag:install] [tag:mutual] [tag:time] [tag:requirements] [tag:design-flaw] [tag:reconnaissance] [tag:wildcard] [tag:exposure] [tag:export] [tag:hardware] (hardware means like half the questions on the site, you don't have "software" because it would be silly...) [tag:banks] [tag:protection] [tag:timestamp] [tag:desktop] [tag:tools] [tag:plugins]
does [tag:office] relate to Microsoft Office? does [tag:custom-scheme] relate to roll your own crypto?
more liekly they'll go "oh x doesn't mean y" without looking at the usage and seeing that both tags are used on basically the same set of questions to mean the same thing
and spend the time arguing I'm stupid and uneducated rather than realizing what I'm actually saying
@1lastBr3ath I wouldn't expect that to work, although I have no detailed confirmation of that, as the problem used to occur from content-sniffing which is inherently dangerous and most/all browsers have stopped doing it
@M'vy that's not fair, I care enough to spend hours of my life going through the list, I just don't care enough to fight the system for people to do anything with it
@M'vy I fought, got told "it's not worth their time", and that's now my default response to any kind of resistance
@AviD as I usually state in the instance any "volunteer" moderator uses the time argument, "maybe you should resign so somebody with time to do the role you volunteered for can actually do the role you volunteered for"
@Flyk hey hey, @Gilles is the educated one that still thinks you're a troll. Me, I am the uneducated one.
@M'vy too long to read right now... but I actually did do a deep dig on ATM pin codes. Dont remember the terminology they use for it, but I do remember some of the class breaks.
@AviD no, he's the "educated" one who came to a conclusion on me based upon gaming's mods and then openly admitted he can't reverse it because claiming not to be a troll is what a troll would do
no "educated" individual forms opinions based off the opinions of others
any sensible and respectable being that has come to that conclusion on their own, I'd like to have a long and private chat with those individuals to find out how and why
@Flyk That logic is so extremely flawed. "You can't be innocent, because that is what those guilty would say". It's also what the innocent would say...
@AviD I am not sucking up. Or not actively trying to. I'm not saying anything about if she is innocent or not. I'm sure that at some point there was actual trolling going on. Doesn't mean someone is always trolling.
@AviD deserving is contextual, publicly it looks like I'm banned for telling a mod to suck a dick but in actual fact this is usually after being kicked from chat for no reason 20-30 times
I have read many articles about how the brain is the most power-hungry organ in any living complex organism, requiring about 70% of it's oxygen supplies in the resting state.
Since the usual medium of oxygen delivery is through respiration, this should mean that a lot of blood is supplied to (a...
having a quick google, as I don't have recent experience with 4k on Windows 10, there's lots of talk of how they're going to fix it and then not a single comment of how they fixed it
to be fair, the screenshots provided just look like the DPI screen from older versions
so it's unlikely to be an actual fix that doesn't break a bunch of other stuff
only thing I generally disagree with codinghorror about (besides affordability, natch) is audio - I really dont need quality audio, since I barely hear the difference anyway. I need bottom of midrange - and that soudns the same to me as top range.
@JourneymanGeek I am a snob about most those things, but when it comes to audio I simply cannot hear the fine differences. Blame it on my artillery service...
But then again, the speakers I use right now might be old enough to drink, cost about the same as a good pint new, and prolly could be used to beat a man to death.
(for serious listening, I have a decent pair of headphones)
You can't half ass audio, you have to make sure you have good quality all round to hear a difference. While splurging for the latest graphics card is generally worth it.
