Non-political things that make you say...WTF?!?! (Welcome To Florida!) **NOT CV RELATED** NO TALKY!

Green is for volunteer fire fighter's private vehicles in WA I believe.

 

I have no idea if other states do as Missouri does, but in Missouri according to our State Patrol -- there are no "accidents" --they are all "crashes" and they all have a cause-- mostly people --sometimes weather, but even then, the "people" are still basically the cause as they are not driving with consideration given to the weather

 

No front plate required in AZ, NM, and TX so you were legal.

 

TX requires a front plate. That's why they issue to you 2

 

supposed to be on the front bumper, but if you have it in the window they say to put it on the front bumper but usually dont write you a ticket

 

Correct most cops don't write you a ticket for not having it displayed. Still required by law though

 

FreeBSD comes with a toor uid 0 account, as I recall it starts a different shell or something.

 

My knowlege is out of date then.
All the UHaul trucks I've seen are licensed in AZ with apportioned plates (meaning they pay whatever state they drive in per mile). They don't have front plates.

 

Those are licensed out of AZ. Governed by AZ laws I believe.

But because our lawmakers are not always the brightest. It appears to have gone back and forth

 

That's not gonna end well...

 

Here green lights are on Hazmat response vehicles IIR.

 

I believe AZ is the same for the green on hazmat. Park rangers also use green and blue

 

His hair turned dark from having his head up somebody’s ass!!

 

FWIW, nineteen states don't use front plates: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia. It's real nice not messing up the front of a new car with a license plate.

My dad, nearly forty years ago, also claimed the same. It's a car crash, not an accident. In virtually all instances, someone screwed up, thereby causing the crash. Even if it was due to someone not replacing worn tires or not maintaining proper tire pressure, leading to a blowout at speed. With rare exception it comes down to a human factor as the root cause.

Yes. The root account typically had the most basic shell, sh, in order to minimize resource use by root processes. The toor account was typically set with a more feature filled (and more resource hungry) shell such as bash or csh. Also, most systems disallowed command-line login as root. So, admins pretty much just issued an su command to "switch user" to the root account or they started a new session and logged into the toor account. Both of these practices were a bit risky since the wrong command or wrong command-line parameters (*) could bring down the system. Sometime in the mid 80's the sudo command was "invented" and came into common usage towards the late 80s or early 90s; with the sudo command and admin could perform a single command as root while remaining within their user-level permission set. Having to use sudo tended to get admins to focus on the command and lessened the risks of human-error caused downtime.

(*) there's a *very* big difference between "rm -rf ./" and "rm-rf /"

 

Thanks, missed that one. They used to be a two-plate state as I remember, when did they switch?

Interesting to see the distribution...

 

Huh. I could swear all the PA cars were dual-plated in the 80's-90's when I lived in central NYS, but guess not.
