There should be such a thing as "preemptive discovery process", because you know any evidence of this will be destroyed by the time the legal system reacts.

IMPORTANT EDIT: It seems a lot has changed regarding how this is done. Amongst other things, CCNA can be taken online these days. If your system meets the requirements (windows and macos only, sadly), you don't have to show up to a testing location. Outside of that, you find a testing location near you via the link posted further down.


Most likely not. Cisco certs and their exams are administered by Cisco and not by normal educational institutions.

However, some educational institutions might be able to run the exam. If you feel you know the material well enough, you can contact any of the certification places and have an exam.

Technically, you don't need to pass anything in advance to take the exam, but it helps to make sure you know the necessary material. On that note, if you're into hardcopy study material, these books cover everything. They're not as intimidating as they look, and they're quite well written:

Edit: Looks like Cisco is partnering with Pearsons now. You register online and pick the exam location

No. There are certification exams. At least the CCNA/CCNP/CCIE certicates require them.

These exams involve a combination of multiple choice questions and practical assignments in a simulator. While you do need to know the curriculum well to pass, the exam isn't hard if you do.

Source: Took CCNA eons ago which has long sinceexpired. Recently started considering to recertify, as well as get my CCNP. I'm already working as an NP with C hardware, so it only makes sense for me to hold a valid cert.

I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with my landlord harvesting my vomit as rent.

You beat me to it regarding Unciv

I'm tempted to say "no" to the first half, then "Yes, plenty" to the second half, on the basis that I'm good at faking it.

I travel a lot for a living, so there are a lot of idle hours in hotel bars and airplanes, ripe for idle chitchat with random strangers, so I decided to start practicing my social skills, because they sure as hell need some exercise. What do I care, I'm never gonna meet them again anyway.

Well, it turns out that
a) Most people I encounter are just as bored as I
b) Idle chitchat is easy after a few tries. I don't think I'm fak8ng it anymore.
c) Sometimes you do run into the same peo0le again on the other side of the of the world, and they're happy to see you

I haven't tried LMMS, but I stumbled across Bitwig a while back, and I started using that when I decided to pick up music making again. I love it. I tried using Ardour for a while, but I found it overly cumbersome.

This is what SQL took away from us. Never forget.

Will have a look tomorrow if I find the time. I don't have much storage space at the moment, though, so if I do end up grabbing it all, I'm going to need one of you to take it off my hands, depending on size.

I was thinking -18% tax rate. So if you're a corporation, you get 18% subsidies on top of your profits.
