But my sister and mother live in Colorado Springs. Of late, I've noticed it's become cheaper and more convenient to fly into DEN and drive down to the Springs, instead of booking a flight right into COS. So, I've become more familiar with Denver as a result.
Our in-depth psychological assessment shows that you
might like a career as a cheese taster, scuba diver
or professional TV show watcher.
To be fair, it does list some alternatives. E.g., I could be a political scientist. But, then, I'd get fired and be downvoted into oblivion.
I could be a user experience designer or an online reputation manager [watch it!], but that sounds far more like a supplier than a job description.
I suppose I could be an epidemiologist. But I'm lazy, so that would only work for really interesting diseases. Gotta stay motivated, don't you know!
I could be an animal scientist or trainer. Maybe that would work if I could be as sensitive as another recently posted author (octopuses). But I seriously doubt it, I being a slacker!
I could be a cartoonist, except I can't draw worth shit. I could be a lyricist or a poet or writer. But that takes talent. Which I don't have.
I could be stonemason or a plasterer or a stucco mason. But, did I mention, I'm a slacker!
Baker. Getting warm. Bread being baked does smell nice. Yeah, that's promising. Except I'm too rich.
for real. I briefly worked at a Russian news agency, where one guy's entire job was keeping track of the correct transliterations for people and places. I imagine the internet makes it somewhat easier now, but it's still a nightmare.
The GP's point is well-taken. The company that produces this particular widget calls it an "underwater locator beacon",[1] not a "pinger".
To "ping" implies you are the locator, not the locatee, whether you are sitting in front of a terminal window or are running the active sonar[2] on a boat. You send a signal out and await a response, be it a reply (as in the case of the ping command) or an echo (as in the case of sonar).
Thanks. I should have mentioned I already looked at statcounter. The data for desktops is OK, but what I really want is the most common user-agent/resolution combos. It's easy enough for me to check the Apple ones, just by looking up the specs of recent models, but I don't really know what mid-range Android phone specs to target, as there are so many models.
Or maybe all you have to do is get your unlock password wrong a certain way.
Fact is, the fact your phone boots makes it more of a threat, not less. LOL!
Fact is, this is not about security. It is an exercise in security theater.
