Yeah, but isn't it also true that some people thrive on structure?

Surprised to see that people aren't just motivated by cash!

I'm a bit confused by the wording of this question. What exactly do they mean by "replicate images from other registries"? Is that the same as just copying images between registries? I'll have to read through the options again to make sure I understand.

Tracing illicit transactions, huh? That could be useful for a variety of situations. I'll make sure to consider all the options.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know we want to avoid WEP, but I'm not sure if WPA is the best option for a public network like this. I'll have to review my notes on wireless security.
