I was also going to point to Tyan's offerings. That particular board not only offers 16GB, but it also gives you two PCIe x16 slots. I was considering getting it and running a pair of 6800 Ultras for maximum frame rate, but it isn't available yet and I've instead decided to go with Gigabyte's 3D1 bundle.
Agreed. I "tested" a secondary domain controller one time when I "discovered" that one of the sockets in a UPS connected to the primary was a bit loose.
Support for new archive formats. In addition to ZIP, ARJ and LZH formats, F-Secure Content Scanner Server is now capable to detect malicious code in CAB, RAR, JAR, GZIP and BZIP2 archive files.
It's a text adventure game of Metroid based on an old Penny Arcade strip. You can't actually go anywhere, it's kind of a simulated text adventure game. I wrote it (and the compression routine it's encoded in) for the 5k competition, but it looks like that's dead.
Never rely on a single ad-blocking technique. I'm a Windows user and I not only use Firefox's built-in stuff, but I filter through Proxomitron, using JD's ruleset. Plus a.hosts file. I can't remember the last time I got an unsolicited pop-up ad. I rarely even get a "Firefox blocked a pop up" message.
Does anyone know what speed a pair of V.92 modems can connect at when both are simply plugged into a normal analogue home phone line? I believe V.90 drops to 28.8k. Does V.92 do any better?
Are there any ISPs still putting any effort into dial-up? By this I mean are there any ISPs rolling out v.92, compression proxies or anything else designed to produce a faster, cheaper dial-up experince? Or are they all just killing time until they can drop dial-up for (A)DSL? I'd be particularly interested to hear about any company in Western Australia that specialises in dial-up.
Am I to assume you're yet another American unaware of the definition of irony?
FWIW, I submitted four dupes and three have already been rejected. (One of the rejected ones and the still pending one are in fact for the same story, which has already been posted twice. How it hasn't already been rejected, I don't know.) I hope they sent a message, but I'm not holding my breath. Sending an urgent email about the most recent dupe didn't do anything either.
Forbidden Your client is not allowed to access the requested object.
Better to host all your photos somewhere big enough to cope with a Slashdotting. We're pretty much back to the point in the.com bubble where you don't need a personal website, just a bunch of accounts on free or cheap specialised hosting services.
I wonder if they've achieved significant power savings with that iPod. If it not only looks cool, but increases the battery life it'd be a pretty popular mod. They could sell a kit...
WoW can be played by installing the open beta client (still available if you search the 'Net) and just let it patch itself up to the latest version. You can play without needing the CD in the drive. You don't need anything in the box except the activation key.
I would have assumed that there's no way to buy a used key and get it to work. Similarly, I would have suggested that you just get the account name and password from the person wanting to sell their copy, but if you can't change the basic user information (which seems strange as people have been known to change their address, telephone number and even name) I guess there's currently no way to get an account except to buy a new retail box.
SLI is not a cost saving technology. It's not about upgrades. It's about putting two of the fastest card available into a PC so you have something faster than any single card in the market.

I'll tell you when I get through the three beside my bed at the moment.
Oy, it's a time sink. My initial subscription ran out almost a month ago and I seriously have not had the time to play since. Since it absorbed about 47 days from about day three after retail release (10-day guest pass, 30-day initial subscription and 7-odd days of "free" time due to problems), it's like I'm having to catch up with a month's worth of stuff while the next month's stuff happens at the same time.
It's great fun and I've even got one of those fancy WoW keyboards and the limited edition strategy guide on their way to me, but at the moment I'm not even sure I'll ever have time to play again...
That's it. Movies have too much baggage. And they're crap. My mother bought "I Robot". I lasted five minutes. I had to sit through an un-skippable "ad" where I was reminded not to steal movies only to be presented with a move where the first line is a product placement. Two plot cliches could be found in just the first few minutes. (Character saved by a minority, still doesn't like them and character misjudges the action of a minority and acts like an arse.)
Quote frankly I'm having way too much fun with books at the moment. Real, Dead Tree Format books. There's some great stuff being produced, not like the pap that is a "blockbuster" movie.
I walked away from new music ages ago. I neither buy new stuff nor download anything. Because I also don't listen to the radio (*shudder*), I have no idea what music is out there. Thus I don't buy any. I'm watching less and less TV, I don't download movies and I don't go to the cinema. Movies are coming out now, I don't know what they are. When I do finally find out about them, I wonder why anyone pays money to see them, apart from being able to say they paid money and saw them.
I used to think that Microsoft had good hardware, then I bought their Bluetooth Desktop product. Now I don't believe that anymore. (Though to be fair, the problem was with the Bluetooth stack, not the actual hardware.)
However, having seriously tried Linux on my home desktop and gone back to Windows, I'd have to say that Windows itself, security problems aside, is a very nice product. Their browser, email client, media player, CD burning software, zip folders, firewall and Office software all suck, but the core of Windows with its driver support and UI, is a perfectly fine environment. I wish Microsoft would just focus on producing a nice, slim, fast, Windows.
Nope, no matter how many trolls I foe, I can't get the responses on this page to reveal any insight. It's all just finger pointing and point scoring. If I wanted that I'd watch the televised parlimentary sessions.
Anyway, this is stupid: It's science. If you report something that's wrong, the next group comes along and makes you look like a twit. Why would anyone risk their professional standing for some transient political nobodies?
I think this was a (minor) plot point in Jennifer Government by Max Barry. Someone designs a virus that uses an overflow in NAV to get itself distributed to all the workstations in a company. I think in the book it was program designed to get NAV to create a pattern on the server that would crash the workstations when they were updated with it, but it still seems strangely similar.
Slashdot Mirror
And I was playing Doom on a Kodak DC265 back around '99-2000. There was probably even a Slashdot story.

I found it cheaper to "upgrade" from a geForce3 ti200 to an FX 5200 that had no fan than to try and retro-fit a big passive heatsink to the 3ti.

I'm about to do the same, more or less. This is stupid.
I've also got a couple of small bits of art on the wall and some old computers (Spectrum, Apple IIc, Atari 400) on a shelf.
