Seattle Wireless has been fairly quiet recently, but they are still working towards a free Seattle 802.11 network. A local network via 802.11 is an effective and minimal investment method for connecting a freenet.
Just think of the impact to the Redmond marketing group if they had to re-rename the current OS release back to 'Longhorn Professional'. Blood everywhere!
Sure you do, it's called a screwdriver. A particularly pointy one, and a quick blow on the handle will disable your mic any time you like. re-enabling is a bit harder...
You can donate them at The Body Shop (Radio Shack used to take them, but they don't any more) or call your local 211 (yes, 211) and ask for more information.
It should be noted that these phones are used as well for Anonymous telephone access, so that DV (Domestic Violence) victims don't have a phone number that's traceable to a physical address. Please support this service.
9. Notes
Notes are stored on the Kolab server inside the user's IMAP sub folder "Notes" (German: "Notizen"). Physically, they are represented as multi-part MIME emails with the actual note being a MIME part.
See the appendix for the exact file format.
Isn't this exactly what we saw reported by Noam Rathaus, at Security Focus, and at CERT as a security vulnerability in Outlook Express? Mutli-part Mime types in email can send virii past firewall email checking systems, unless the AV solution reconstructs the email message before the client sees it.
That's when you teach your users how to use your local *zip product... it reduces your email bandwidth/storage too, if you have users like mine that insist on sending PowerPoint files back and forth for minor editing changes....
Aparently, one of the amendments on the US$40 billion emergency funding bill slipped in by Rep. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) was to ease restrictions on installing and using Carnivore. Read about it in Federal Computer Week.
I've had Solaris 8/KDE on my Ultra 10 workstation since I set it up 6 months ago! KDE and Gnome ship with Solaris 8 in the install media kit, on the same cd with GCC, gtar, gnu/emacs, Ethereal, and an entire cd of GNU tools. Don't y'all use SunFreeware or Sun BigAdmin for your Solaris/GNU packages?
All of the cells were totally overloaded for several hours, and no one could get through (mostly because everyone who had a cell phone kept hitting redial, even though it didnt do any good....)
It was a stroll through memory lane to see folks lined up several deep at every pay phone in Pioneer square, trying to check on loved ones.
Untill cell coverage is adiquite for 90% of the customers to hit the lines simultaniously in a major city after a disaster, plus provide emergency services coverage, I'd *hope* that landlines don't go away...
If you count *Base-to-Peak* however, Mt. McKinley in Denali Nat'l Park, Alaska, defeats them all. Everest & K2 start well above sea-level, on a plateau...
Yes, it's a WinCe device, but it works for general web browsing. Before ePods tanked in August 2000, we had been testing and running the "Little Fella" for about a year.
The devices are coming, but flat-panel touch screens need to come down in price first before they really hit big. The Ezex machine costs far more to manufacture (Right now) then most folks are willing to pay for the conveninence of a web pad.
If there is going to be violence, the true extent of the violence should be shown. TV, movies, and games should all have to follow the rule- if it's necessary to the story to show someone getting shot in the head, it's necessary to show just exactly how much of the back of the victims head is blown off by a.45 cal hollow point.
It's not pretty, and it should never even enter our conciousness that violence is pretty.
At one point a few months back, I had a 1+ hour commute each way where I wasn't driving... I would have loved to have had study materials that I could use offline on my Laptop or Palm Pilot, but all of the training materials my company provided were web-based. I never used any of them.
The other thing I've noticed, and I'm curious... according to the most recent census, what's the ratio of minority populations in the Seattle/Redmond area?
According to this University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire study, it seems that 4.8% of the population in Seattle is black. (Total of 13.5% minority population...) Mix that with the amount of minority population in the Technology sector, and 1.2% still seems awfully low.
As an admin, I wonder what you're trying to say. I block large ranges of ports on a regular basis, because there's no business for *any* external traffic to come into my LAN. HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and a limited few others get inbound permissions to specific servers (On a different extranet subnet) that are hardened for those specific tasks.
And if you think that security should *only* be on inbound traffic, you've obviously never seen a coworker led off in handcuffs after attempting to (illegally) hack another companies servers and leave his company to blame while he skips town.
If your App has both the server and clients inside the firewall, no problem. If your client-server application is sensitive, and it crosses the internet, you should be using a VPN tunnel or SSH to cross the firewall in the first place, instead of sending passwords in the clear!
And if the app isn't sensitive, why not treat it as if it is? Use https, ssh, or pptp to do your tunneling, and forget about it. Then those nasty admins won't ask you to help them protect you and your code.
Why is it that you think SysAdmins are only there to *stop* you from doing *your* work?
By unabridged freedoms you mean what???

GDub is as anti-freedom as anyone else. Have you noticed that he'd be in a position to install Supreme court justices that could:
1) Overturn Roe v. Wade... that's a huge loss of freedom. Whether you believe in abortion or not, you have to protect the rights and freedoms of everyone, right?
2) Criminalize Gay relationships.... The extreme right Republicans refers to homosexuality as a curable disease, not a lifestyle they don't understand. Does that mean that Gay couples that want to get married or adopt don't have Rights to be protected?
3) Distroy Environmental rights... Just because I live in a big city doesn't mean I want the air here to taste like it does in Houston(!) or L.A. Bush has proven that he cares about industrial machinery more than he does the lungs of the good people of Houston.
Now, I do support your right to own a gun, and wouldn't take that away from you either. But until there's a viable choice on the Libertarian ticket, where EVERYONES rights are respected, I pick people and environment over guns every day.
Direct financial support was for ActiveState, the folks that ported Perl to the Win32 platform, and continues to port Python for Win32 as well. In fact, it's noted that ActiveState will be in VStudio 7.0 on the front page.
As another aside, I'd say this is a Good Thing (tm) for those of us that have to admin PC's running Linux, Solaris, Win2K, WinNT, and Win98, Sun boxen, and Mac's all in the same campus. That's the advantage of Perl. And thanks to M$ for finally supporting something that someone else wrote without trying to take it over. They should get credit where credit is due.
2058
As Longstreet and his Bio confederates flee from Earth, GigaCorp scout ships discover Helium3 - an ideal fuel for fusion reactors - in the Sol system asteroid belt. scientists successfully extract He3 from asteroids and use it as fuel. Once this fuel "refining" process is perfected, GigaCorp begins to mobilize for long-term, widespread exploitation of He3 resources.
2063 Longstreet dies at age 95; age is not the cause of death, however. Prolonged exposure to radiation and zero-g ultimately caused Longstreet's demise.
2071 The Siege of Leonov begins. GigaCorp and Crimson Group (the principal GigaCorp rival) discover a large He3 deposit on the moon. Security forces from both factions dig in and attempt to secure the site. Within 14 hours, the firefight begins. Neither side backs off, though the siege is little more than a standoff.
In response to the weeks of fighting on the moon, the UN orders a Peacekeeping Coalition (composed largely of United States Marines) into space to defuse the situation. Within weeks, the Coalition forces decimate the corporate factions warring at Leonov.

You may not have had Dell 1650s installed a while back, but there was a recall in 2003 because a voltage regulator on the MB overheated and could catch fire: http://news.zdnet.com/2100-9584_22-5145372.html?ta g=zdfd.newsfeed
Actually, according to The Professional Photographers Association of America the rule is that you've made more than 50% of your annual gross income in one tax year from the activity in question.
I believe that is a pretty common definition, but it's been a long time since I worked for a member of PPA too. :)

or, WIN + R for run command in windows, ALT + F2 in KDE.
In Windows, use +r for the RUN command, similar to +F2 under KDE. Why is this so hard? The hotkeys are already there, just use them.
