There was a saying back then: "Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM." Probably true. I started coding asm I/O modules on 168s and 370s in '83 for PMSC. IBM was big, brutal, and as bad as MS is alledged today. They were a marketing company that happened to sell computers, etc. Then hey got their fannys smacked by the PC revolution and have managed to make a huge turn. Because they're a big corp, they think like one.
Don't they have a department working on Apache? At least Open Source can be talked about in their halls. It is openly supported.
This is a cute campain; unthinkable for them in the '80s. Assuming this paint will wash off, I'd pay the advert agency's bill. The news medias are going to give them lots of free exposure.
We have not earned our Rights. These are god-given; inherited by being. We, and our fore-fathers (and fore-mothers:), have fought to keep this assumption valid. Any limit to these has to be earned.
In this case, where people are disruptive to the site may have earned a limit. When the topic is ignored and postings are made only to disrupt the flow of dialog, it is my most humble opinion that limits are permissable.
Second, his Aldridge seems to have released private information about the site's caretakers. This is a direct invasion. Can this be covered by stalking laws? (I don't think he'll be charged w/ stalking because one of his followers could have visited the Hair home and reported findings.)
Third, Robinson, et al. own the site and can ban anyone they want. Is the ban for a particular UserID or the human behind it? In this case, it is for the human. After so many IDs, this Aldridge didn't leave them alone. Maybe, this can be covered by stalking laws, too...
Several years (maybe 20?) I read a book with the premise that all of the oil we're taking out of the ground has caused the earth to start wobbling. The solution, I think, was to anchor a bunch of oil tankers in the right places around the oceans. It was a good read. The preface to this book stated "If you think about it....don't."
I finally got a TV after 15 yrs just to see what is on. Normally, I'd say "60+ channels of nothing". I was channel surfing during the Daytona 24-hr and stopped to see what this XFL was about.
Very nearly went on when I saw McMahon's face. His wrestling show is so against my ethics and moral standards that... But I stayed long enough to see the 'coin toss' twixt LV and NY. I liked it! I Finally saw an interesting football game. Hard hits, kicks and punts returned, even a helmet or 2 knocked off. Sure the player comments were dumb, they're in battle. Sure they missed a lot of passes; watch an early season NFL game for more of the same. The adds weren't as bad as the Superbowls, either.
As for your "The range of camera angles was exciting but dizzying and confusing. ", Have you ever tried to watch Riverdance on tape? At least here, I could catch a breath between most of the camera changes.

Wake up to what? What happens on your street is not my concern. What happens in my house is not your concern. I'll pick up the trash on my (public) street and holler at the next door kid when his 'music' intrudes past my walls. As for murders and such on the street, it is your responsibility to clean it up on your street. Unless you're a renter, and then you can move....

The war, IMHO, is not about drugs. It is a cover to allow/give our government the power to intrude into our lives and develop the systems and technologies to do so. With the assistance of the media, they/we can maintain taboos on sex and drugs. This puts a lot of money into the coffers of those that benefit from the technologies and systems. This includes industries running the gambit from private jailers to camera makers.
I wondered where 49 winmail??.dat files came from into my..\eudora\attachements directory in 4 days (~150emails/day). Never bothered to find out what is in them. Now I know that they are not relevant and so will be disposed of. They take up from 3k to 117k of space each. Thanks, Chris, for causing this discussion.
THese jokers saying Haiku is limited to these silly rules of syllables and such? English teachers in elementry school tried to teach us this 'way'. Haiku expresses a thought; that's all. With economy. 575, I hope you don't mind my repeating some of yours. Rythym and lingering content; light, pleasent taste.
HeeHee, We have/had one at my ISP. An ES10 named camel22. I don't know if it is even turned on anymore. We (the NOC) wanted to move it to the lou; nearer the faucets. Little feller kept smokin' with all the attacks. Bandwidth monitors would spike. We'd wake the guy responsible up nightly and finally we all decided to just watch it cook. It may still be there but we don't care. 3000 boxen back there and this one caused more problems that all the rest combined.
Also add an RJ45 crimper (phone 4 & 6 pin, too), coax crimper and a few tips. I also carry an RJ11 & 45 line tester, Fluke generic VOM, Rabbit probe and signal box, and a cheapy princess phone.I carry the crimpers and tips in my laptop case, a reversable #2 Phillips/straight screwdriver (free at trade shows) in my shirt pocket, and a simple Case pen knife. These have worked for years (decades) and nothing gets caught on chairs (I've tried Leatherman types). All the above tools cost $250 at computer parts stores. If you need a mallet, there is a simpler way.
My web server was a 486. Now its a p200 running IIS until I can figure out this httpd which will run again on the 486. Actually, it'll host 3 low intensity sites. My Internet connetion is a 384K pipe which allows me to ftp at 25K/s and host the few hits I get. We're a $40M trucking company, the site is only for phone/fax numbers and an intro.
would you rather go thru the PDF hell of getting Intel's file or see this guys stuff fast and easy? Also give the guy credit for hacking this chip to scratche his itche in a format I find easy to read; not that I think I'm ever going to use this stuff. Allez Clive. You have My support!!
Yep! I bought 2 of them as they can talk to each other. This mixes robotics and computers together. Haven't got the hang of their lang yet, maybe your youngster will. Got a couple neat robots running around the house fscking with the cat. Now need to figure how to get them to rise over all the wires laying on the floor.
Continuity across episodes and even seasons is what has made B5 so interesting for me. I have to remember the past. There are hints in shows not resolved until later (weeks or even years) after they're mostly forgotten. Each show does resolve a central issue every time but leaves consitant viewers something to come back for. There is a whole lot of development.
