Well... I'll accept crazy, only in comparison to the general populace. A more accurate statement would be to say that our norm for sanity is based on different criteria. We are square pegs that fit in finely machined holes, with little tolerance for errors.
Actually, I joined the Navy before college. Had the money, just not the desire. Being a bubblehead was the best adventure of my life, except for when it was mind-numbingly dull.
Read the description of the no-ship in which Duncan and what's-her-face stayed... Definately Harkonnen styling on the walls, the pornographic and lewd pics.
The last Harkonnen died with Muadi'b's blade in his brain, so the no-ship had to have been built before the Tyrant.
OK, so you've covered tasks 1 and 3... Can't login, but te files will still be there when their account is unsuspended.... How does this bounce e-mail?
I have an active account on my *nix box. If I disable logins ("suspend the account") the user can't login to shell, ftp, e-mal, whatever. The only other tactic is to delete the account. Now, the mail is bounced, but all current messages are gone, as well as any other files they may have on the server.
How would someone implement a suspended account and bounce e-mail, AND leave their current files there in case they wanted to reactivate their account?
On the software side this is true. Hardware is different matter. Every six months they publish, via their Service Source srvice tools, a list of the hardware that they will no longer provide service parts for in six months.
Due to a CA law*, they have to provide the hardware parts for 5 years after selling a machine.
Their computer and peripherials cycle through an Available, Discontinued, Obsolete, and NLA (No Longer Available) lifespan.
It was rather amazing, because until they started doing this (about two years ago?) you could order service parts for everything from the Fat Mac to the Laserwriter I. Even Apple IIc stuff....
* It may have been a strategy to avoid a class-action lawsuit, instead of a law. I wasn't working for Apple at the time this started. I only heard about it 2nd hand after I worked for them again.
Syntax: dump -[increment level][options] -f [device] [location]. Usually
located in/usr/sbin
Increment Level = 0 - 9. 0 is a full backup. with a value above 0, copy
all files modified since the last dump of the same or lower level. Default level
is 9. Options = u a.
u = Update/etc/dumpdates after a successful dump.
a = autosize. Bypass all tape length considerations, writing until
an end-of-media is reached.
-f = specify a destination file. [device] = valid path or device. Ex.,/dev/st0 (SCSI tape drive). [location] = source filesystem you want to backup. Ex.,/home
Usage example: dump -0ua -f/dev/st0/home
Make a full backup of/home to the tape drive/dev/st0, writing until the tape
is full or end-of-media is reached, then write the results to/etc/dumpdates.
In the days of DOS and earlier, to use a PC, one had to have a modicum of intelligence. With Windows 95 and it's brethern, a body temperature of 98.6 seems to be the only requirement...
One million users at an IQ of 100 is better than 100 million users with an IQ of 70.
What's really scary is that the average intelligence of the computer user dropped from DOS to Windows, the number of users has skyrocketed. Sad statement of the world indeed.
I looked at Harvey Mudd when I was living in the Claremont area, but I just couldn't bring myself to attend a college that shared the same name as a Star Trek villain.
I was in Sunnyvale, CA about a month ago... Found out that the local Starbucks had wireless. For free. Sounds like the fees are a local phenomenon.
Got another place down here in the SF Valley, Coffee Bazaar on Ventura Blvd, also has free wireless. Great coffee, great people behind the counter. If you're in the area, check them out.
Given the premise that the cycle of mining water, growing wheat, and shipping said wheat to Earth constituted a continual bleeding of resources of the moon, I don't see how the Lunies had any choice but to revolt.
Luna gave the Earth plenty of time to come to terms, work out a reasonable settlement (ship us your waste, we'll processs it and send it back pound for pound of wheat).
And (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) but the only time the civilian populace was hurt was when a group of them camped out to watch the rock fall, right under the announced target site.
The spaceport at Dallas, and SF, were military targets. Many times, they threatened to hit the Tak Mahal, but always declined to take the shot, not wanting to destroy a priceless peice of history / architecture.
I read your other post about 802.11b interference. How you get around depends on what options you have on both your phones and your Airport. 11b has 11 channels. Channels 1, 6, and 11 can coexist in the same area with no interference.
I have two access points covering my apartment, one in on 11, the other is on 6. I've avoided getting 2.4 Ghz phones just because no one publishes information as to how flexible the setup options are.
Ideally, you'd have your Airport on 11, and configure your phones to the range between 1 and 6, allowing you to get around any interference from your microwave or neighbors.
Once the phones get within 5 channels of your airport, your 802.11b is going to suffer. Sounds like that's exactly what happened.
I built a new system; Aluminum case w/450w PS, window and flighting key, AMD XP2000+, MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU, 512 Mb PC2700, Lite-On CDRW, Lite-On DVD, MS Trackball, and Keyboard. I migrated the 2 30Gb drives, LAN and video cards from my old system. Total outlay = $720.00.
DVD and CDRW came from Newegg. Motherboard, CPU and RAM, case, KB and trackball came from Fry's Electronics.
You haven't spent much time reading the works of Thomas Jefferson, have you?
The people are Soverign, in that it is by their will that the State is governed. The issues and trials we face today are not the same that will be faced by our grandchildren. Thus, it is supreme folly to suggest that we are wiser, more learned, than our children. The rule of law is paramount, yet the Constitution has within it a process by which it may be ammended to meet oncoming challenges. It is malleable, within the rule of law, to the will of the Soverign people.
The above is paraphrased from a letter he wrote in 1803, after he completed the Lousiana Purchase for 15.6 million dollars. You should be able to find refernces to the letter online, if not the actual item itself.
The question on the table, was merely to submit an application for a disposal site to DOE and NRC. The application will take approx 7 years, and will have to answer all those lingering questions.
From the Summer Y2k models and up, there is a little access door where you can access the two DIMM slots. I think you can even get to the Airport slot, too.

Nope, no compression options. At least on the software side. I leave it to the hardware, my trusty WangDAT 3400DX.

Pretty reasonable for terrorists, if you ask me.

That's based on it being ground into a fine dust and being inhaled.
Once in the lungs, it's deadly. But as a solid brick? It's simply radioactive, not poisonous.

You must be talking about the original iMac...
From the Summer Y2k models and up, there is a little access door where you can access the two DIMM slots. I think you can even get to the Airport slot, too.
I bet it was South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City, SD. The base was Ellsworth AFB.
Just a guess, but I grew up there, and that's the only base I know that meets all those requirements.
