This is not a small thing -- ads are valuable. This weekend I bought The Linux Journal and Linux Magazine from Fry's ($12 together). I read every page. Online I scan articles and usually only when I'm searching for something specific.
Here's a benefit of the paper version: folding. I was able to leave the magazines open, folded to the page I left off for later reading. Can't do that online (no, bookmarking doesn't come close).
Exactly wrong. Bill Clinton didn't know how to answer any question tersely. He was a master politician. Even when he was deflecting he was eloquent (and deflection is probably why he learned to be so eloquent).
His style is more akin to no-nonsense GWB. Thankfully, too.
Bill Clinton is more closely macthed in style by RMS.
I just installed/ran apt4rpm, too, but only had 11 packages updated...but then I've been pretty good about running up2date --nox -u...
Question: I want to update my KDE (from the default Redhat 7.2 distro) and I've never had success when I've tried downloading all the rpms manually and trying to solve the #&#*@ dependencies...as a new user of apt4rpm (and, yes, I looked through the man page and FAQ) will apt4rpm automate this? If so, what do I need to do?
Hmmm... if you use Mozilla 0.9.5+ / Netscape 6.2 this doesn't happen from the Slashdot-to-Coleman link. I think I know why: Mozilla doesn't send HTTP_REFERER. At least, not that I can tell.
Friday I ran into trouble setting up a weblink to a credit card processor for one of our smaller sites. The card processor restricts connections based on HTTP_REFERER (great security scheme, no?) and I was getting an unexpected error while using Moz. Then I used Konq and IE, which worked fine. Testing on my own servers I noticed that Moz wasn't sending the header when I POSTED from one server to another.
I don't have time to deal with this, other than to restrict Mozilla/Netscape 6.2 browsers from using the shopping cart for this site. Sucks.
From the behaviour of their website, no one. Clicking on the "Starter Pack" link produced a "security alert" error (see below). Makes me think that they haven't paid much attention to the purchase flow of their site. Perhaps this is more a technology demonstration than a product offering?

What is SecureIIS
SecureIIS offers websites running Microsoft Internet Information Server a broad range of protection from common vulnerabilities, both known and unknown. Because SecureIIS does not protect against specific vulnerabilities, but classes of vulnerabilities, it allows for a much more far reaching layer of security.

They're tackling the expansion question head-on (actually, this was the point of the article) with their philosophy of broadband as the 4th utility and by negotiating service-for-access to poles. It worked for Aerie before with Richochet and this is their plan for the future.
Aereyousuiurrie (sp?) is ahead of the game just on the cost of their investment (a business degree does help). They're breakeven point is extremely low compared to Metricoms. By offering service in place of $4 to $10 per pole they're showing initiative at reducing operation costs. All they have to do is keep ongoing costs down and they have a winner.
What I want to know is: when can I have my service back!?
I'm so very tired of the "advertising" model of Webvenue (kinda like revenue) that I'm willing to pay to avoid it. This kind of ad is getting in the way of the actual content I'm seeking.
Of course this means information will be less available, but I can afford a little expense to have a pleasant online experience.
Where do I sign up for a pre-paid, ad-free Internet?
It means, while they do not deny the existence of a platform other than Windows/IE, they have no knowledge of such a platform and doubt it would possible to find it.
I think the real response to the artist friend is to tell her to spend more for a decent system, and not just a box. For an artist, the cheapest part of the system may be the computer.
Let's see: underwater city found off Cuba... and this validates the story of 2 of every animal (7 of every ceremonially clean one) loaded onto a boat... how's that, again?
Don't set your hopes (faith) on the newest scientific/archeological discoveries. Faith should be deeper than that...

He's a Kernel maintainer, not a celebrity -- and he acts accordingly. Cool.
while the parent post was humorous yours is lame and rude.
First:
- wget > http://download.us.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/2.2.2/R
e dHat/7.2/i386/
and then-
> rpm -ivh --force --nodeps *.rpm
worked flawlessly.Thanks - that worked.

Also true if you're always in a harry and start your email virms with "Hi"...

That must be a default icon for fuel on Coleman's site. Probably database generated on "product_type = 'fuel'". Yes, this is lame.
The neat-o animations (works in Mozilla 0.9.6 on Linux) depict the canisters as blue cylindrical tanks.
>Who does Coleman think might buy this stuff?

35 simultaneous connections at a minimum of 128kbps per antenna. Over 5,000 antennas in greater LA. (From the article)

I wonder if their customers and investors realize that they're being misled? (Or do any of these people use anything other than MSIE, anyway?)
Of course this means information will be less available, but I can afford a little expense to have a pleasant online experience.

I'll submit this as a bug to the KDE team...

Konqueror does Flash just fine (I'm using Konq 2.2.1).

Not for $1000...
that'd be 8 thousand years ago
An aside: I never thought I'd see the day when this link would be on topic for Slashdot...
