I ma thirty years old, and like you that is far from the upper range of my hearing. In my case depending upon the frequency it also becomes quite painful.
When we founded Blue Security in 2004, we believed that if we automated a way for users to rise up and exercise their rights under the CAN-SPAM Act, we could reduce the amount of spam on the Internet.
Over the past few months we were able to leverage the power of the Blue Community and convince top spammers responsible for sending over 25% of the world's spam to comply with our users' opt-out list. We were making real progress in eliminating spam from the lives of our users.
However, several leading spammers viewed this change as a strategic threat to their spam business. The week before last, these spammers launched a series of attacks against us, taking down hundreds of thousands of other websites via a massive Denial-of-Service attack and causing damage to ISPs, website owners and Internet users worldwide. They also began a relentless campaign of email intimidation against many members of the Blue Community.
After recovering from the attack, we determined that once we reactivated the Blue Community, spammers would resume their attacks. We cannot take the responsibility for an ever-escalating cyber war through our continued operations.
As we cannot build the Blue Security business on the foundation we originally envisioned, we are discontinuing all of our anti-spam activities on your behalf and are exploring other, non spam-related avenues for our technological developments. As much as it saddens us, we believe this is the responsible thing to do.
You need not do anything as a result of this change. We will continue to protect your names and addresses and honor all privacy commitments we made to you.
We have concluded we should not take Blue Security to the full deployment stage we originally planned to achieve, but we are proud of what we have accomplished thus far as a young startup company.
We are extremely proud to have had the chance to work with such a devoted and dedicated community: thank you for the vote of confidence you gave us over the past few months as well as the particularly vocal support you have shown over the last two weeks.
We will be innovating and building our technology in new, other directions and will continue to give back to you, our Community.
My ADAM was rock solid. I still own it to this day, although I haven't had it hooked up for about 8 years. The last time I did though, it still worked.
Becasue of the daisy wheel, I was one of the only people in my school allowed to hand in papers written on computer. Most of the teachers refused dot matrix print becasue it was to hard to read.
Personally, I setup my MP3 box with X and a wallpaper changing program that cycles through all of my pictures at a set interval. The output from the video card goes through a scan converter, then into a modulator that outputs the video (and MP3 audio) onto an unused cable TV channel in my house. Using X-10 I can switch slides shows on a whim from a remote, and the pictures can be viewed from any TV in the house. This totally illimantes the need to get out a laptop, or take someone to the computer.
I feel it necessary to point out that OpenMail is definitely NOT the *only* platform to support a whole slew of outlook features. Novell's Groupwise 6 product supports despite what MS may want it's clients to believe. In addition to the technical features it is a LOT cheaper than Exchange. For those people who seem to buy into the MS line that Novell is old and outdated, I must laugh at them. Our Netware servers run rings around our NT boxes in terms of uptime and speed. Netware also now runs Apache, and I have heard that they are currently hard at work at porting PHP as well.
Yeah, I thought that was absoluty rude on their part. If they truly canceled Beebop due to Tuesday, then WHY on earth would they be so stupid as to air that cartoon in its place. I stayed up specifically to watch Beebop as I had enjoyed it last week. Instead I'm insulted with "Rhaposdy in Rivits" or what ever it was. BAD MOVE CN!
Yes, I understand that. My consern is that apparantly the script was able to modify settings w/o permission from the author. This seem to me as yet another major security bug in IE.
I must first admit that i am unaware of the design of these keyboards but i assume there is only a few channels they operate on. All you would really need to "sniff" these devices would be another reciever device of the same type set to the same channel. Once you have the channel figured out the second device, attached to a second PC, should display what was being typped on the original? This is the way the old RF keyboards sold with the Gateway 2000 Destination series of computers worked. We purchased a few of these where i work and i used to love to annoy people by setting a second mouse to the same channel they used, then in the middle of a presentation start moving their mouse around on them.
Isn't that what the LinuxBIOS project is attempting? http://www.acl.lanl.gov/linuxbios/

I agree that the "loves true form" theme was a bit old... However I thought that the amount of parody injected into the movie more than made up for the overused ending.

Lately I have noticed more movies are tacking on additional scenes or commentaries in the credits. This especially seems to be the case in comedies. I figured that of all movies Shrek would have done so. So I sat through all the credits and was surprised to see that there was nothing. Did anyone else wait for non existant scenes in the credits?
I had just accepted my current job. My second day here, the head librarian asked me to set up a machine with modem. Then we sat down and started "playing" with mosaic, gopher and archie. Six years later all machines on campus have highspeed access via the campus network.
The demo unit i saw had the ability to add additional cooling plates for more HDD's and it also has a cooling plate for the graphics chip. Also, in the desktop model case i looked at, there are 3 cooling fans built into the bottom in a seperate compatment that held the radiator. Those fans were operated by a control circut that determined when the system needed the extra cooling. There is also an LED readout of the temperature of the fluid. Unfortunatly there was no feedback from this device to the PC itself so you cannot software monitor the temp of the fluid.
I saw these guys at comdex chicago. They took a small take and submerged a motherboard, and power suppply compleetly in their cooling solution. They had the HDD sitting out of the fluid and had the pc up and running quite nicely while fully submerged.
I would truly be interested in joining such a lawsuit. Or perhaps we should file a lawsuit against gracenote on the grounds that all the data entry gave us Carpel Tunnel Syndrome. I remember after typing in 75% of my CD collection and submitting it my fingers / wrists ached pretty bad.

Provisio has a beta of their new SiteKiosk product for android tablets. It looks like it might do what you are looking for.

Except for the fact that verizon cripples the motorola phone tools software.
Is it just me, or does it look like they used integer math for their counter in the machines mentioned in:s /epaper/2004/11/05/a29a_BROWVOTE_1105.html

I'm willing to bet 32,000 isnt quite right, try 32,767... the max number for a 16 bit signed integer...
Add one and suddenly you roll over to -32766...
Supposedly it was fixed... fixed by what? using an ABS function to strip the sign from the number??
This would be futile, as not every book has an ISBN number.

I thought that changes to your setting via javascript, or java had to be approved by you. I guess I'm mistaken...
