I should have probably mentioned that this is a liberal arts school-- the vast majority of students aren't here for compsci. I've met ONE student who runs Linux during my tenure here, and I'm even willing to host a local mirror of any distro our students request.
It works behind NAT, but we're not filtering right now, and it's taking up very little bandwidth-- most users can't exceed 20K a second for some reasons.
CCleaner, a Panda Titanium installer (does a nice job of removing stuff), XP's SP2, HijackThis, Macecraft's A Squared, and a variety of drivers and such.
The problem isn't the laptop getting dinged; it's the TSA goons stealing your computer. They must think that Christmas came early this year with all the electronic stuff they're getting their hands on today...
I use it now, Troll. Running XP, 64 bit edition. There are an awful lot of 64 bit processors on the market now, but most of them are running x32 systems. That's going to change as time goes on-- I'm just one of the early adopters.
I have to wonder, if this works to boost revenue for Serenity, what will the MPAA's response be? It only took them, what, ten years to realize the internet can help them?
No, there's really no link between the two. It's akin to saying Windows is owned by Microsoft, and Microsoft sells information to marketers, so anything you type is being tracked by advertisers.
(Let's leave spyware out of my poor simple analogy)
So instead in major markets they lose out to cable internet instead and get none of the pie. There was a $5 fee for not having a cable package (I don't watch TV), versus a $20 fee for naked DSL. The DSL ended up being a few bucks cheaper, but I felt like I was getting pounded in the arse with a 70% "not being our bitch fee," so went with Cox instead.
What you're missing: When AT&T was split up, the resulting regional phone companies were called the "baby bells." i.e. Pacific Bell, Bell South, New York Telephone, etc...
No. I think that if YOUR network craps out, and YOUR internal voice traffic goes over that same network, the effect of this is left as an exercise for the reader.:-)
What are you talking about? It's been a while since my admin days, but I can't recall ANY home users who need RADIUS servers. Speakeasy's offering doesn't use PPPoE either, from what I recall-- they use some form of MAC address authentication instead.
I'm trying to decipher what you wrote and figure out if you're a troll who strung a bunch of IT words together, or someone who knows a crapload more about this stuff than I do. Have a coin I can flip?
Slashdot Mirror
So what do you do when you're not giving your plan away to James Bond?
The noncompete sounds largely unenforceble. I'd check with your state labor board or a lawyer.

I've been coding too long. I misread that as "The Crystal Beavers."

Let's also not forget how easy it would be to fast forward through ads presented in a digital form.
20 times?
You need a hobby, mate. Most of us get bored and go home after 3 repetitions!
Prepaid phones cost an arm and a leg to use for, say, 500 minutes a month.
Satellite phones don't work inside.
I'd argue we have rights to protect us from corporations in some instances as well.
Urm... dunno what you're using for power supplies, but on seven machines I've lost one power supply in the past five years.
You don't get paid enough to invest in a UPS? Maybe you should go back to full time employment?

Isn't it bloody sad how in a short summary like the one on Slashdot advertising becomes a major facet of any new technology?
What the hell kind of overhyped commercialized society have we become?
That depends entirely on who funds the study. :)
Thanks for the feedback-- you just saved me some money.
Thinkgeek offers one that shoots foam discs.
I prefer to put more of a hurting on the marketing weasels though. Explaining the tiger pit to management was a bit of a challenge, though...

CB used to be licensed? I thought it was for anyone who wanted it, and HAM was the license class?

Okay, my impression of this kind of setup during a network outtage:
"Hi, I need you to go reset the-- hello? Hello? Is anyone there?"
