Yeah, I should read what I write before posting... 😉

I have done quite a few martial arts. Anyone who tells you you can learn X and fight against someone who is armed (knife or gun) is simply spouting B.S.

If someone pulls out a gun on you, give that person what he wants and pray you are not going to end up shot anyway.

If someone pulls out a knife on you, again, don't try to be a hero: give that person what he wants. Don't play hero, especially if the guy holding the knife seems to know what he is doing.

Martial arts are just a way to train your body and your mind, both trainings are valuable in and out of themselves. They will keep you calm in a tense situation, they may even save your life since no one wants to mess with a dude that keeps his cool. Ultimately, a street fight can be avoided just by looking calm and composed.

I have used all 3 major BSDs (Free, Open and Net). FreeBSD is ideal for servers due to its performance. OpenBSD is perfect for security appliances and NetBSD is perfect if you have exotic legacy hardware.

This being said, I have also used OpenBSD for about two years as my daily driver on an old second hand laptop, and I really liked it. With a minimum of configuration, installing software was as easy as Debian (just your pkg_add), and configuration is just super easy since the OpenBSD documentation.

It has improved a lot done then: installing security updates (sysupdate) and upgrading (sysupgrade) from one version to the next is amazingly simple. If your hardware is supported, OpenBSD is just a pleasure to use. Its only default is the lack of "advanced" file systems and volume managers.

There is a guy named Arthur David Olson who maintains a small database of all the time zones in the world, including things like leap seconds and such. It's used by everybody and it is updated several times a year. See here:

I live in Paris, I have been to London, Berlin, Brussels, Amsterdam, Athens and Rome.

My two favourites are Berlin and Rome. Berlin because of the energy and just plain coolness, Rome because where else can you find so much amazing art and architecture within 10 or 20 minutes of each other, walking distance? And the food is amazing, of course.

Second in line are Amsterdam, Athens and London, all of them great, but London I found was really expensive. Athens is a bit behind Rome, but a truly lovely place to explore. Amsterdam is also lovely, accessible and very very beautiful.

Brussels is OK, I guess, but mainly for the people who I thought were very kind. Some places in Brussels are ok, but it's not as nice as Amsterdam for example.

Next in line for me are Madrid and Lisbon, I love Spain already and I can recommend places like Granada and Sevilla, which are totally amazing.

If it's several python modules, then yes, choose a license and then contact pypi and see if you can distribute your modules through them.

One very important thing is that you have to make sure everything is ready for distribution: check your project will work (possibly starting with a blank VM), what its dependencies are, that the requirements.txt file is good and operational, that automated tests are available for people to run after installing, etc.

In other words, the ideal project is not just a question of license but also all the scaffoldings you supply with it.

Thanks for opening your code!

I have Osmand+ and it works fine. One very easy way to improve the performance is to download the maps you need ahead of time.

Start by downloading your metro area and I can guarantee that positioning and navigation will be instantaneous. Unless your phone is to blame. FYI I am using a Google Nexus 7a. Very happy with Osmand+.

OK, I agree it could be something more malicious, and that the safest solution is always to bin something unknown.

My position is that the op knows the USB device and suspects it has been compromised by connecting it to a windows machine. But the content may be worth salvaging. In that case, my advice still applies.

Quick answer: no.

Longer answer: if a USB key is inserted but not mounted (as you mentioned) the system does not interact with it in any way, except to log that something has been inserted, so there is no way Linux will be infected.

Longer longer answer: if you insert a USB key, then mount it (for instance read only) the system will no interact or execute anything on the key unless you specifically start a program that is on the key. So it will not be infected either.

Since most viruses and malware are for Windows, you can therefore mount a USB key and start an antivirus program to clean your malware without risking the integrity of your system.

OpenBSD.

Period.

Sure, you can harden Linux to the same level of security. But OpenBSD comes with all the goodies installed out of the box.

Probably because meat was only a small fraction of their diet.

Most cavemen were foragers, they would also fish, and look for a lot of things that were edible. Wild fruits and berries, roots, primitive plants ancestors of the ones that are now cultivated, etc.

Meat meant hunting, and hunting was dangerous, long and difficult. After a while, they would move on once game got rarer.

So, no, meat was not their only source of food.
