Sloppy Fire Arms Handling in Programmes

[The Duke]

Ive been using a figure print scanners since 2006/7 both the dell xps1330 and the thinkpad x200t had one that was great.

Not up to the standards of todays phones, but none the less worked meaning you could have a hard master password set as a fall back. One thing I hate about my chrome book is it doesn’t have a sensor, so for ease of use one has to weaken there google master pass. Or at least did when I last set up my CB. Being they don’t break like windows, and need re installs, that was probably 3 years ago. There may be away to now have a pin attached to a CB.

One of my very few grips with Chrome os.

Bob, sorry to say this only as half a pun but the dotty thing, well it just about drove me dotty trying to follow the article. OK I am feeling well off the pace today but I could see a device with that as the access method becoming a wall breaker very quickly. The exercise might be good for my arm though. Still it is good that some attention is being applied to security as you said too many just do not bother.

On the question of security, well personal security and safety if you or anyone you know uses emollient creams there is a stern warning about fire risks arising from the product getting onto clothes and bedding, especially if the person smokes or has contact with smokers. I Understand that a hidden number of deaths are now being ascribed to these creams and the flammable residue that can build up in clothing.

Yes Richard I saw this on the Beebsite earlier. As I know that SWMBO usually checks this on her lappy after lunch, I waited. Sure enough, around 3 she came in with the story. My Gert does indeed use such cream: in fact after her new HipOp (injoke here) the swelling caused by the anti-DVT stockings on her legs has begun to go down daily. This has left flaking skin from knees to toes: guess who has been ‘volunteered’ to apply the E45, twice daily? The two worst parts of the process (for me of course) are (a) rolling these horribly tight stockings back on and (b) getting back up from my popping, cracking, painfully arthritic knees again.

Back to SWMBO’s “news”: I informed my Hippo good lady that yes, I had seen the report, but unless she was intending to take up smoking in bed, or otherwise intending to carry out inflammatory practices whilst in bed, she (and by association I) were in no danger of bursting into flames, whilst within the marital bed, that I could foresee. This appears to have relieved her anxiety, but she has gone away to think. Any action which may ensue as a result of this cranial activity, is absolutely beyond my imagination, as usual ….??

The good news is that I have not smoked for over 40 years and SWMBO has never used the filthy weed.

When the Thought Police arrive at your door, think -
I'm out.

It does appear that you should be safe, though I did not aim my comment at any particular target. By the way, I am sure that you know that if clothes are slightly damp and heaped up with such stuff on them they can be a very real fire hazard. A restaurant suffered an ‘interesting’ fire from that cause a week or so back. Not quite the same but a department store I knew back in the 1950s had the painters in. Unfortunately they tossed their rags in to a bin and went home. There was no need for them to rush back to work the next day. There was precious little of the store left to paint.

I well know those stockings, I have had them for a number of years, ever since I had some nasty encounters with things that bite and my legs swelled up so I could not move the foot, of it was also blooming painful as it went funny colours. At least that went back to more or less normal after a while.
