And you can create a new account simply by entering a username!
There's no way this would be abused...

A trash bin. Maybe on the desktop but more probably in some system directory.
When a file is deleted, it gets listed there and can potentially be undeleted/moved out of the trash.
But while it's in the trash there is absolutely no protection for it against being overwritten on disk. As soon as any block does get overwritten, it's removed from the trash listing. So it could vanish at any time.

If you could give the Guest user permission to delete their account, would the forum come crashing down?

And I rather suspect the people with the experience and equipment to have a good chance of survival are not the sort of people to go chasing after a rumored treasure.
I heard about the drowning earlier; a few broke college students thought they knew where to look, needed to cross a river, and decided that an inflatable rubber boat was the way to do it.
At some point, of course, you have to ask: "is there a treasure at all?"
I sincerely hope not.

: If such shows existed, they wouldn't air on MTV. Consider the target audience.

@Zerosquare How about 25 & College Dropout?

@PleegWat Unfortunately, I don't have to watch MTV for that. It's showing IRL in the next room. He has about 2 1/2 weeks left to find a job or move out.

And he succeeded. It's a kinda crappy job, and it's not full-time (yet, but his manager has said she will get him into a full-time position as soon as she can, and I'm ok with that, for now), but it's a job. He had orientation today and starts tomorrow.

I thought I was libertarian until I met some actual Libertarians. They're the craziest of the bunch on the political spectrum IMO.
Crazier than anarchists?
Left anarchists or right anarchists? And how anarchic are we talking? - there's the Erisian/eristic distinction to draw. Here, take this poll...
The poll: You have just been punched very hard in the face.- L) You would never

Given that he fixed the shadowbans merely by announcing the purchase agreement, it will be nice to finally be able to consistently get McFlurries.
