We had a major upgrade to our cinema a few years ago, The Arts Council paid $10m for a building upgrade, two new cinemas and some spankingly nice removable hard drive driven HD projectors.
Turns out the projectors need a telephone connection to some place in London to get permission to screen films from the hard drives.
We used to have staff screenings so that we would know about the films on show in the cinema - not any more. We can only project when Central Control says we can.
Want to prepare your own hard disk for use in the projector, $500 a minute please for Central Control to encrypt it for use with *YOUR* projector.
The do have DVI inputs and analogue so it's not quite as bad as it could be.
Next we download postfix-policyd-spf-perl from http://www.openspf.org/Software to the/usr/src/ directory and install it to the/usr/lib/postfix/ directory like this:
1) register as a website with gravatar, find out how long the salt is 2) register on stackoverflow with your email address 3) enumerate the possibilities until you find the hash of your own address and therefore the salt 4) extract 8000+ emails from stackoverflow 5) repeat for other sites
Obviously you don't know that passwords are *not* part of the FTP protocol but a badly hacked on auth model. Plan9 FTP uses netkey and no password is passed but everything is still plain. Use an externally encrypted link and you're away.
Plan 9 only manages [9 architectures](http://www.kix.in/plan9/mirror/sources/plan9/) and uses Mkfiles to specify the architecture to build for, no runtime CPU checking required, no pre-processor soup, totally readable source code, and you can debug code running on a different architecture across the network, even after it's crashed.
All you pups that don't remember VGA modelines and frazzling your monitor with the wrong XFree settings.
VGA only goes up to 640x480x16 with 256k RAM, after that anything goes. IBM lost their grip on the market when they wrong footed themselves trying to force end users on to their MCA bus and XGA. MB / IOcard cloners started to design their own cards. Vesa Local Bus was born and MCA was largely ignored.
Intel became the trend setter and (after EISA) PCI became the BUS and 3Dfx stole the gamer market from under ATI's nose.
We had our revolution in 1642-1651, unless your definition of revolution is something other than "raise a people's army and sieze control of the state"
We didn't arrive late to the party, we got there first and blew all the balloons up while were were waiting.
You might want to thank Compaq for breaking open the IBM PC market. The market also resisted MCA and grew it's own VGA cards when IBM dropped the ball whiel trying to fence everyone back in.
There's also that whole Third Reich part but we can gloss over than and look straight at the patent portfolio warchest.

Telephone intercepts are not admissible evidence in UK courts.
http://www.openspf.org/ has been down all week and it has all the instructions

or you could just statically compile, shared libraries should be dead by now

and you chose Linux? Time to review your metrics.
if 16bit 44.1 is your master, you're no pro
>Old uncompressed formats like WAV has limited support for metadata and more than 2 channels.
Meta data you can keep, nChannels went > 2 at least 2 years ago. Do keep up

You probably know the rest.
yeah, cos it's 30 years
In what way does connecting to my personal IMAP server require sending my password to Nokia?
Esp. as the workaround is to use the wrong password while using the wizard and change it afterwards.

Hehe first time to be called everything. I didn't Windows was any good. I'm a FOSS user and advocate but I don't like lies and FUD.
Hehe shill, that's going to keep me smiling. Just a shame you're an illiterate.
it is nice stuff, my friends used to call it "oats bacon"
take your sensitivity over to the dictionary and show it what rape means
