I mean, if you customize, it just naturally follows that it can do anything.
Microsoft certainly has enough resources to modify their own mailserver software to any degree imaginable yet still run a modified qmail on FreeBSD(IIRC)... and Balmer still says "We eat our own dogfood." Lying pig.
OpenBSD has a (alpha? beta? alpha hydroxy? I dunno) anti-relay addition to the PF firewall. Theo first mentioned it here and it was carried the story here. It sounds similar in that it puts the onus of time and bandwidth waste back on the spammers.
After reading this story I was thinking back and can confirm: Not a single photocopy clerk in our building has ever caught malaria from infected mosquitos.
One of China's concerns was backdoors put into the software. How do they know that the source they get is the source used to compile their OS? Are they going to "roll their own" Windows OS?
It came with all toner cartridges only 25% filled.
Actually that's not uncommon. Many manufacturers give the purchaser a small amount of ink|toner so they can start using the printer immediately and avoid the sticker-shock of a new cartridge.
The printheads are 'disposable', they eventually clog with ink.
Try cleaning the print head carefully with a swap and rubbing alcohol. The goop you clean off isn't just ink, it's also paper fibers. An old employer had a Xerox inkjet fax machine. I'd refill the unit and swab the heads. Out of curiosity I put a label on the side of the unit and would "tick" whenver I refilled. The thing had almost reached 40 refills when it started to misfire.
A little known fact that any image with a high level of red can fool a retinal scanner. Print out this image and hold it up to any retinal scanner if you don't believe me.
For many years, alcohol has been recognized as an excellent disinfectant. It kills germs and viruses without exception. I strongly recommend taking in large quantities of Guinness Stout or if you live in Manitoba, Canada; Fort Garry Dark Ale.
You're be helping the economy and keeping yourself safe from bioterror attack.

Right now at this very moment Al Quaeda terrorists are using apparently innocuous AOL CDR-ROMs for sending their encrypted marching orders to their cells around the country!
Assuming the software in Taiwan is a lot cheaper than in North America and Europe, what's to stop someone from buy^H^H^Hlicensing MS' software in Taiwan and using it here? Do the licenses actually have clauses against that?
It is official; Netcraft now confirms: the Baby Bells are
dying.
One more crippling bombshell hit the already
beleaguered Baby Bell community when Slashdot confirmed that the Baby Bells are sucky crybabies. Market
share has dropped yet again, even with the government sanctioned monopoly. Coming on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which
plainly states that the Baby Bells have lost more market share, this news serves to
reinforce what we've known all along. The Baby Bells are collapsing in complete
disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent "Unsucky Crybaby
Tests".
You don't need to be a Kreskin
to predict Baby Bell's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Baby Bell faces
a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for the Baby Bells because
the Baby Bells are dying. Things are looking very bad for the Baby Bell. Their offices are
dark, the tomb-like sepulchral atmosphere is all that remains. The Baby Bells
continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.
The Baby Bell DSL development team is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet
another charnel house. All major surveys show that the Baby Bell have steadily
declined in market share. The Baby Bells are very sick and their long term survival
prospects are very dim. If the Baby Bells are to survive at all it will be among telephony
dilettante dabblers and hangers-on. The Baby Bells continues to decay. Nothing
short of a miracle could save them at this point in time. For all practical
purposes, the Baby Bells are dead.
It is official; Netcraft now confirms: the Newton is dying
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered the Newton community when
Slashdot confirmed that the Newton market share has dropped yet again, 5 years after it was discontinued by Apple. Coming on the heels of a recent
Netcraft survey which plainly states that the Newton has lost more market share,
this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. the Apple Newton is collapsing
in complete disarray..
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict the Newton's
future. The hand writing is on the wall: the Newton faces a bleak future. In fact
there won't be any future at all for the Newton because the Newton is dying. Things are
looking very bad for the Newton. As many of us are already aware, the Apple Newton continues
to lose market share. At Apple the red ink flows like a river of blood.

Maybe IBM should rethink its business focus. Perhaps they should manufacture baseboard heaters, toaster overs, wave solder baths...
Do those smoking monitors have to be used outside in California?

a) it's not "Your fucking stupid" it's "You're fucking stupid", assbreath.
b) I said "Close to 300 million" not "300 million", read what I wrote.
c) I'm not counting any illegal alien relatives as I'm not an American.
Why oh why to I bother replying to AC chickenshit losers?
Everyone knows: Google is the Answer to Everything so remember these simple rules:
You use google.com in the U.S., use google.de whilst in Germany.
Close to 300 million Americans are caught up in a scam similar to the Nigerian one. See my sig..

The barebone notebook features no display, no CPU, no RAM and no HDD, but only the case, with keyboard and touchpad.
It sounds odd saying that missing things are features.

I just buy the bindings and glue them to pieces of 2x4. No one actually takes the books from the shelves.
