Re:Finally possible?
its called a routing table.. DNS is only domain name resolution, it ties easy to remember names to ip addresses. Regardless of whether those are IPV6 or IPV4. If you have the IP of an IPV6 and you have an IPV6 IP address, and all the routers in between you have complete routing tables, you can reach that other host no problem. DNS doesn't even get involved. The same way DNS doesn't get involved if I try to reach google by going to: http://64.233.187.104/

DS firmware has multiple versions
The DS firmware has multiple versions, however updating is transparent to the user, and occurs when they fire up a game with the firmware update on it.
The "clearest" update is the one that adds the ability for the DS to talk to Nintendo's WiFi Connection service via ordinary routers. This update also breaks a loophole in the GBA emulation code that allows DS code to be executed from a GBA cart. The first Action Replay relied on this, so the upgrade broke it. I bought one and discovered it didn't work. The most annoying thing though, is the box art for the AR shows it being used with a Mario Kart DS cart... which is one of the games that includes the AR-breaking update!

Re:church income tax?I guess this means that they don't have to pass the plate in Finland. Do Finns even know what it means to pass the plate?
However, the tithes and offerings and other contributions that a taxpaying American pays to his church and various other institutions are deductable. So churches do get a little help from Uncle Sam in that if I donate to a church, I can substract that amount from my gross income before I calculate my tax. This is why some businesses, Scientology, for an easy example, structure themselves to conform to the IRS definition of a church.
Here's something from the irs.gov website, an excerpt from a discussion based on a court case.

by
Robert Louthian and Thomas Miller ...
In applying the analysis to determine whether a religious organization may
properly be characterized as a church, the Service considers whether the
organization has the following characteristics: (a) a distinct legal existence, (b) a
recognized creed and form of worship, (c) a definite and distinct ecclesiastical
government, (d) a formal code of doctrine and discipline, (e) a distinct religious
history, (f) a membership not associated with any other church or denomination,
(g) an organization of ordained ministers, (h) ordained ministers selected after
completing prescribed studies, (i) a literature of its own, (j) established places of
worship, (k) regular congregations, (l) regular religious services, (m) Sunday
schools for religious instruction of the young, (n) schools for the preparation of its
ministers, and (o) any other facts and circumstances that may bear upon the
organization's claim for church status. See IRM 7(10)69, Exempt Organizations
Examination Guidelines Handbook, text 321.3(3).
The fifteen criteria are not an attempt to quantify the factual circumstances
required for recognition as a church. Determinations are not made solely on the
number of characteristics an organization possesses. ... -

Bob Edwards: This a hangover from the scandals that occurred in several high-profile charities?
Paul Light: Absolutely. It's a consequence of scandals across the board, controversy surrounding the Red Cross disbursement of the September 11th relief funds, the Catholic priesthood scandal. I mean, practically every scandal out there stuck to the charitable sector, and Americans have become more dubious about making investments, if you will, in charitable organizations, investments in either time or income.

Charities work well on SMALL scale locally. On a large scale, they become corrupt organizations that throw elite parties, spend lots of money on salaries, and provide entre' into the upper social circles for the people who run them.
Just this weekend, they had a special involving actual survivors of the holacaust. One of them was a lady who has seen a grand total of $3600 while growing increasingly angry watching *billions* be collected, spent on nice museums, fancy parties, travel, etc. by lots of people who never spent a day in a concentration camp. -

Morris worm vulnerability VENDOR BUG not sendmail
I was actually around when the Morris worm hit. The vulnerability in sendmail that the Morris worm used only after failing to exploit rsh and finger (most systems, as I recall, were taken over via the finger bug) was not introduced by the authors of sendmail.
The distro vendors (Sun, for example) were shipping sendmail compiled in DEBUG mode. Which is not Eric Allman's fault; sorry to spoil your sendmail FUD, but that's the vendor's fault.
Do you ship code to your customers with all the developer debug hooks turned on? If you do, do you blame the people who wrote the code when somebody exploits a debug hook, or yourself since you're the one who compiled it stupidly?
The article you linked explains this. -
Re:Well
its a joke but... (from the Worm article in 1988) The first fact to face is that Unix was not developed with security, in any realistic sense, in mind... [Dennis Ritchie, "On the Security of Unix"] This section discusses the TCP services used by the worm to penetrate systems.
... For a long time the balance between security and convenience on Unix systems has been tilted in favor of convenience
I think this worm really made people sit up and notice security was a big deal, and since then they've gone about fixing things. The same could be said for Windows after Code Red and all those other well-publicised nasties. Here's looking a future with less security flaws all round. -
8 years after "The Worm" Snedmail is closedYou've never heard of a security issue with sendmail??!!!?? Time for a history lesson. Although obviously fixed now, Sendmail was the main culprit in the first internet worm ever found in the wild.
The Internet Worm of 1988 -- Introduction by Francis Litterio
The below document tells the story of the Internet Worm of 1988 and how it effectively shut down the Internet. I didn't write it, but it's hard to find it on the net these days, so I offer it here on the theory that those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
I remember when it happened. It was a big deal to computer people like me, but in 1988 the Internet was unknown even to the most sophisticated media reporters, and the World Wide Web had not been invented yet. I remember the NBC Evening News devoting less than 30 seconds to the topic. If an equally severe disruption of the Internet were to happen today, the President of the United States would probably hold a press conference to calm the nation.

Some numbers to back you upAs you can see here, the number of dead birds due to buildings is highly disputed. There's a 300-fold difference between the upper and lower bounds. There are some cool things being done to improve the problem. Lets pick a number somewhere in the middle, say, 100,000,000 birds per year in the US killed by buildings. By comparison, various organizations estimate that cats kill between 8 and 200 million birds in the US each year, and motor vehicles account for 50 to 100 million as well.
There are several different sites that report the numbers of birds killed by wind turbines in the US and around the world.

COBOL Moving Up On JavaCOBOL is quietly moving up on the WWW. See this link by Microsoftie Ralf Lammel to understand why. According to Lammel a Gartner study shows that
- 75% of all business data is processed in COBOL,
- There are between 180 billion and 200 billion
lines of COBOL code in use worldwide, and - 15% of all new applications (5 billion lines)
through 2005 will be in COBOL.
Every significant language vendor has a COBOL compiler but need not market it since demand is so high.
COBOL has two properties that make it the up-and-coming language for WWW development:
- fixed-length strings - no buffer overflows, no dynamic memory allocation, faster program loading, execution and clean-up, and
- fixed-point decimal math - COBOL is an accountant's wet dream and does exactly what accountants want.
- 75% of all business data is processed in COBOL,

Re:Holographs to satisfy retinal eye-scanning.
Well said; live body or not, the affirmation to draw from the account would not need a live body if it were a system built on passive biological sampling such as eyeball and finger scanning. In the even that an account holder were coerced into confessing a passkey, it would be good for the banks to have two passkeys attached to the account; whereas one passkey was for the private-side (holder in due course) and the other account was public-side (for anyone coercing a claim or robbery), and both would need to be indistinguishable or perhaps combined in such a way as to quietly generate an exception to show in the public record that the transaction was fraudulent. Would it be as wise, if such an exception was handled dynamically by dispensing a counterfeit currency as to track the spending capacity of the theives that coerced the account-holder?
At the end of the day, all I think is there is one man willing to hold my money and conceal it from thieves at no cost: me. It seems the more complex a tecnology becomes, the more abuse it can allow for the most simple of exploits, or the most effort to correct the mal-function due to manipulated record parting the true claimant from a fraud, etc. The same can be said about the soldiers and mislead civilians held by "terrorists", appeased to a trust that no immediate action would be carried by their captors, and then without warning are beheaded; If such were known, it would be better to dispense as many bullets from a sidearm and die trying, then to surrender to a deceptive enemey to be lied and tortured until a slow beheading.
In the end, it would seem better to spend or trade the money for products and consumables, moreso fixtures that would warrant a more difficult conveyance by a thief (such as a house, artisanry, valuable tools), faster than thieves could intercept it. This makes many ponder/wonder on the validity of Federal Reserve Notes in the United States; given the de jure gold and silver coin was arbitrarily taken from the security boxes of account holders, immediatly on site by a Revenue Agent, when an account holder approached the corporate institution with the original trusted and sure authentication/master-key to open the box.
Thanks for the thought-provoking discussion, friend. -
Re:stupid idea.
give/sell these to people thinking that they need these more then food, water, and shelter.
You give/sell these to people with half of the 1GB space loaded with text files on how to bootstrap themselves up to a higher standard of living.
Instructions on how to build water filters, decent sanitary facilities, preserve food, basic ammonia-cycle absorbtion icemakers, simple home power setups, crop growing/rotation, etc. Check out ITDG Technical Briefs (cached, the sites b0rked at the moment) - a laptop loaded with those files suddenly becomes pretty interesting to people. That's the kind of stuff that people will hopefully have access to once they get one of these. From all the billions spent on trying to improve their living conditions, it's all too obvious that we can't pull them out of the shit - they've got to learn to do it themselves. Laptops such as these could be the thing to help them do it. -

Re:It doesn't have to be a computer virus...
...it could be a virus for he human brain. An intelligent alien species could reverse engineer the human brain and try to figure out the right 'buttons' to push to make us engage in various types of behavior. Essentially they'd have to use the fact that the human brain isn't a perfect processing machine. For example there are optical illusions which make us see things that aren't really there at all. Similarly there might be thought illusions that arise the moment we are tricked into thinking about certain things. The 'virus' might look like the most innocuous thing but if it had the right triggers embedded in it then it might make humans perform certain prescribed actions that would look completely irrational to those uninfected.

They advertise their generosity and philactories on every news stand, and overshadow the generosity of common people that do more with what less they can give and don't ward it over eachother.

Bribes have always been accepted practice
That is bribery.
So is the entire plea bargaining process in our judicial systemThe general figure that is thrown around is that 90% of cases are settled through plea bargains.
There have been court cases which have called 'leniancy' and 'plea bargains' as the bribery that they are, but if those decisions were allowed to stand, the criminal justice system would grind to a halt under the caseload.
here's some guy's book/rant, where he brings up the topic of total immunity. Pretty much the ultimate bribe: We'll forgive your past crimes if you tattle on someone else.
Immunity, by the way, is a holy grail of sorts in the law making biz. Various industries are always trying to get language slipped into a bill that will grant them immunity from lawsuits.

NAGOYA -- Toyota Motor Corp said Thursday it has developed a new species of the Cherry Sage shrub family that effectively absorbs harmful substances in the air.The new species, called Kirsch Pink, will be sold for 380 yen per pot through Toyota Roof Garden Co, a Toyota Motor subsidiary, from March next year. While Cherry Sage plants are known to absorb nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide and other harmful substances in the air, the new species does so 1.3 times more effectively, the automaker said.

It's pretty obvious that the source code to this app is probably their biggest asset...there are obviously still folks that use the app and I would say that the real reason they won't open source the app is that they really think that someone will eventually purchase it...who, I don't know...I would say Novell, but they already own Evolution...maybe RedHat or Mandrakesoft...Not to mention that the bank would be stupid to allow them to release freely what is likely to be their biggest asset (their source).

Ask the Red Cross and anything.Your intentins are good, but if you don't have training you will be a hinderance and a liability.
Bullshit. It sounds good at first but it breaks down when you think about it. As long as they bring food and shelter for themselves everything they do is appreciated and useful. Training is better, co-ordinated trained people are best but no one is useless. Turning people away for lack of paper work "certs" is one of the worst things that happened. All help is appreciated by decent people and there are plenty of them in New Orleans, Slidel and on the Gulf Coast.
The Red Cross know what it's doing, unlike FEMA or that horrible woman who did not know she was in command of the National Guard and delayed aid for days without reason. Contact Them and join an organized response. They might even tell you what to fill your truck with.
Now, let's see what people in New Orleans are saying. "Please open a Wal Mart"! Family members report that the one grocery store open smells like the fridges they taped shut and put on the curb. I think they can use almost ANYTHING but beer is in short supply.
Your backs will also be useful. There's plenty of cleaning up you can offer people who are unable to do such things on their own. They will be happy to see you.
Of course, there are some real jerks there too. I've heard plenty of stories about people who not only expected heroism on their behalf, they expressed anger to those helping them. I have it first hand that, as in other urban dissasters, police and firemen were shot at while putting out fires. Some people have such a strong sense of entitlement they are angry they were not rescued earlier and have been asking questions like, "Where's my appartment?" for weeks. Don't let them deter you.
Good luck, you are going to need it.

Come to think of it, that is anatomically correct.
All animalia symetrically develop a nipple or a complete breast upon every isolated abdominal muscle. I don't mean to sound obvious or sarcastic as I say; females in man-kind, developed into fertile women, only two mucous (mammary) glands will develop to secrete "milk" through two developed breasts and nipples. I do not think of man-kind as being completly developed, because the flesh appears capable of procuring traits that may have been abandoned unlike other mammals.
At least the Google search was honest...

Re:Speedy Enlightenment?I wish I could figure out what exactly is the bottleneck. There's no way that i8000/1GHz/512MB/GeForce2Go-64MB should be running that slow on Ubuntu5.04.
Hello, I'm a moderator on the Ubuntu forum. After looking at your post I conclude you need to do two things:
First you need to install and enable the official Nvidia driver. You are lucky enough to have an Nvidia card (their drivers are the best) and so you might as well get your money's worth. The directions here will guide you.
Secondly, we need to get your apps starting faster. To do that, follow this how to. I know its a Warty How To, but it will work for every Ubuntu released. And after it is done, things will speed up...
Also I know for a fact that your card will work with Xcompmgr. Look at the guide here. Don't use the drop shadows (the -cC command), just use the fading (-fF) and everything else will speed up as well (no more draw issues). I usually run the program in a terminal in my fourth desktop, out of my way. With xcompmgr and prelinking with the official drivers, on your laptop Ubuntu will fly!
Thanks for posting so much info so I could help, have a nice day.

There has been an inexpensive PPC available.Not many people can take advantage of it because there aren't enough developers willing to make a good attempt to enable the solution for their needs. There hardware is available, now, you just need to look for it. I'll cite one source; Nintendo GameCube.
If the average geek AND the average developer can't have easy access to PPC machines then Linux will stop being cross platform in a few years. It's ineveitable, and there is nothing nobody can do about it. Most people don't have 5000 dollars to burn just to have a extra server in their basement, or feel like spending 1000 dollars for a slow ass machine of lesser quality then what they can by at walmart for 300 dollars.
I can show you where to get an inexpensive PowerPC system, a tuned ATI Radeon 7000 graphics and sound system, a miniature (8 centimeter) DVD disc drive, stackable form factor, and runs Linux; for under USD 75.00 -- Nintendo GameCube. Now before everyone complains that this is not a viable platform, then you all need to explain to me what is a viable platform; Nintendo GameCube has been active on the market and just needs more attention that it has received. Yet, it looks to be nearing its end of life -- which means this is no longer a inexpensive available PowerPC solution, it is a dirt-cheap solution. Currently, this (google'd cache) project has Linux booting. There are ports specifically optimized to the typical technical differences found in such vast open hardware implementations. And what is not to enjoy, besides the fact that all this systems usefulness is crumbled without "optional" network hardware that should have been included?The biggest hope for future PPC machine in my future will be the Sony PS3. If they release a Linux distro for it, I'll buy it in a second. At 3ghz with a limited core it will be somewhat faster then my aging AMD desktop and my 1.2ghz Ibook.
I hope too, but is there any DRM? All these specialized platforms and architectures are being abused by DRM to prevent competent alternative code from loading. There are many google categorized searches for "PlayStation 3" and DRM. I think much of the intellectually free hardware has gone under the DRM radar and is being retired or being end-of-lifed, including GameCube. And if anyone wanted an inexpensive SGI MIPS graphics workstation, it looks like Nintendo 64 is already been shat off the case. -
Any Hostonians remember TV Kid POW?
In the mid-1970s a Houston UHF channel, 26 or 39 I think, had a telephone-based video game called "TV Kid Pow".
Kids sent in their phone numbers and the station would call a few "lucky winners" each day.
The winners would play a video game using their telephone: every time they said "pow" the game fired a bullet at the target. The more hits they got, the higher the score.
I think the weekly high-scorer got a special mention too.
Call it an early tele-computer-game if you will. I call it good marketing. -
"Moog" is a Dutch (from Holland) nameThe "Moog" name comes from Holland.
From this link (or Google cache,Spelling variations include: Moges, Mogge, Mogg, Moog, Mogges, Mogge-Pous and many more.
First found in Holland, where the name became noted for its many branches in the region, each house acquiring a status and influence which was envied by the princes of the region.
Some of the first settlers of this name or some of its variants were: Hugh Moger, who settled in New England in 1632; Tho Mogg, who settled in Virginia in 1674; Hans Michael Mogg, who settled in Pennsylvania in 1732; Anna Herzog Maag, who came to Carolina or Pennsylvania in 1738. -
Re:RIAA should address the causeSigh.
You didn't read the link at all, did you?
And all (important) crimes do require intent. It's called mens rea.
There are a very very few that do not, like speeding or parking violations, where the mere facts of the evidence makes you guilty, called 'strict libability' crimes, but those are never felonies. They're usually ticketable offenses, in fact. Everything else requires intent to commit the crime.
The difference between homicide and manslaughter is that homicide requires intent to kill, whereas voluntary manslaughter merely requires 'intent to harm', without the actual malic reaching a level of murder.
And involuntary manslaughter? Well, there are two version. One's misdemeanor version of felony murder. The intent required there is to merely commit another crime. If you a committing a misdemeanor when you kill someone, it is involuntary manslaughter, just like it's felony murder when you kill them during any felony.
The other version of manslaughter is negligence, and I suspect it's what you're thinking of when you talk about 'manslaughter'. However, crimes that require negligence require intent. In fact, negligence is a form of intent. That sounds strange to have phrased that way, but failure to do something that you should have know needed to be done is a form of intent.
Basically, the difference between manslaughter and murder is what your intent is, but both of them require intent, aka, mens rea, as do all felonies. Suggesting that manslaughter doesn't require intent is just ignorance.
And your 'intent to take' concept is stupid. No law, anywhere, has ever defined theft as that. It's defined as 'intent to permanently deprive'. (I probably should have pointed out the 'permanent' earlier, but I was trying to point out the 'deprive' part. Some forms of 'theft', BTW, do not require it being permanent, like embezzlement, which is illegal even if you intend to get the money back. But basic theft, aka, larceny, aka, theft by taking, does. I think all 'theft' does.)
And, you know, you'd look less ignorant if you googled a bit and found specific examples of where it is explicitly stated that borrowing is legal. That's according to the University of Texas Criminal Law Department and the Georgia Bar Ass., BTW. Search for 'borrow'.
It's just that court cases where that was argue successfully are had to find.
Here's an appeal where the lawyer said it should worked as a defense, although for some reason he couldn't legally argue it at that point. Normally it's larceny if you move things, even slightly, in an attempt to take them, but he argued that the defendent couldn't have possibly been attempting to steal giant earth-moving equipment.
And here's a very interesting Supreme Court transcript where they talk about the specific lack of the word 'intent' in a certain bank robbery statute. Where they actually talk about people stealing money from a bank with the intent to return it, and how while larcency laws would say that's legal, the Federal bank robbery laws, as written might imply it's not, as they just require 'stealing'. And they don't know if they were meant to be written that way or not, as it happened when they rewrote the definition of steal of be 'intent to deprive' as a 'clean-up', apparently not in an attempt to change the actual crime.
That's the Supreme Court, for those not paying attention. And regardless of whether the bank robbery laws require intent to deprive or not, that doesn't change what they think about 'larcency'. They all accept it requires the intent to permanently deprive. (Robbery, FYI, requires taking from the physical possession of people, usually by intimidation or force.)

Witch hunt indeed, as perhaps the city commisioner believes that she ratted him out concerning a decision about city docks, when he fact owned one himself:

There you have it, here are some examples.
I've been studying this phenomena and find it more applicable in so-called "law enforcement" employees and related agents of a corporate STATE. Examples are;
id - sometimes pronounce incorrectly as eye-dee, is defined as the unconcious impulses that seek satisfaction with the pleasure principle, or simply defined as declaring the cause of actions. Anyone asking for "id" is actually asking for self-incrimination.
I-dentification - pronounced with a strong EYE, phonetically in this way it assembles the elements of facial imagery, yet the bias for the purposes of such assembly is construed from statute to statute.
I-dentify - pronounced with a strong EYE, dimorphically opposed to Identication, as to compel or command the assembly of the elements of facial imagery (action with the suffixed "y").
identification - phonetically pronounced with a short and near-silent EYE, but id, prefixed or interjected with other words, to express or satisfy an request for unknown action, and set it apart or in duplicate. In the Uniform Commercial Code, is references that such "identification" is for purposes of curing a form or Title unto goods to sell those goods. Similar, but dimorphic to identify, where this declaration is free-form and eminent (domain?) unto a subjected property; not voluntary, but coerced; varies from statute to statute for purposes of incrimation as well.
resident - defined as a thing(res) known(id) out of(ent) a claim or dispute etc.. On court casefile headers, it tends to be those things in dispute, such as GUN vs SWORD, et al. It appears that a "resident" supposes that people in a dispute are things subject to jurisdiction of superiors; that is a misconception, because a matter of intellect, whereas the names are fixtures in the dispute to be settled as prize or endorsement to whomever prevails from the action. Consider such disputes where seizure of property by United States is the action being tried; those such cases exist in admiralty proceedings from a district court. I distinctly remember one or two cases on the face of a court docket as UNITED STATES vs. ONE 1954 PICKUP TRUCK (or this, and this), and UNITED STATES vs. 4 BARRELS OF LIQUID PURPOTING TO BE WHISKY, or UNITED STATES vs. FOUR HUNDRED AND TWENTY DOLLARS -- "UNITED STATES" is a thing disputing other things. In this regard, for fraud it seems, because it is misprison to challeng a property (organized theft) instead of whomever owns that property, but the world never seems to operate the way it was thought or intended...
Many more words I have found to be misplaced or misapplied. Arrest is one of them, notice is another; all abused to commit fraud on others. -
