If it's not critical or I immedeatly think I can replace it (even if service itself thinks they are unique): 1 days(and for it doesn't matter if it's happen on USA Independence Day or Chinese New Year), to get at least some response on what's going on. 1 week to fully solve issue.
if it's critical...start with above but will scout net for replacements, if where are REALLY no replacements...will try to make as much public uproar as possible to make issue fixed
last 2 real issues with paid-for services:
- first one - 3 tickets, about a week, end result - replacement for necessary functionality found for same price. account disabled on old service
- 2nd one, in 2 days from time I was actually aware of issue:e-mail about my usage trigger error in their code. they are investingating and be back soon. (this look plausible for me given service nature and my data's nature). as apology for issue they give some free time on same billing plan I was on.
well, may be they supply it.
in my case situation is like that:
50mbit/s up/down according to speedtest.net to city ix, but only about 10 mbit/s to european test points
I'm paying for 50.I'm from Russia(if anyone interested, no cap, price is about 35USD/month).
Real speed is highly depended on that I'm doing - sometimes I'm getting 50 mbit(especially on torrents), most of time - not.
Yesterday I have to install sun-jdk on ubuntu
worked without problems -
sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
and I run update manager right after that - and jdk is still here
and no, openjdk is not an option. at least until Google updates Android build scripts
(it's even worse on Mac OS X - Android is basically unbuildable on Lion)
I mostly work using freelancing websites.
Ones I use..support webcam but not require it.
And - if I want to add time for 'I was thinking how to this'/'I was walking outside to test that GPS app' - this can be entered in system too. It's just more easy for 'employer' in this case to dispute this time.
And...on current project(there I constantly getting 'your are doing GREAT work'...I don't use those tools at all. I just file a bill for time. And got paid).
basic functions of robots.txt works for _all_ search engines...
if some webmaster doesn't knew that for example Yandex or Baidu IS search engine(just serving different market) - they could always only allow google to index after all.
and crawlers who ignore robots.txt...well they are not public search engines anyway.
may be cheap atom box + ASG(Astaro Security Gateway,www.astaro.com(forums at astaro.org)) with free Home Edition license
Potential Issues:
- it probable will use more power than regular router after all
- max 50 IPs behind it(but it's for home after all)
- if want to you use ASG's extended funcionality(web filtering, advanced IPS(snort-based),etc) you will need to choose CPU carefully
- you will have root password from ASG(it's really very specilized Linux) but it is assumed that you will use web-based control tools
I use old athlon machine with 1.5 Gb RAM and some old hdd(and 3 network cards) as my ASG router
And if you THOUGHT you playing a game from middle of NY, killed Russian/Chinese submarine and after that got yourself killed by Russian/Chinese missile(becouse too such 'players' are near you,enough to spare one missile) - will you friends and family be calling that Russian/Chinese killing 'innocent civilians'(you and you friends-operators)? -:)
I correctly undestood that if this goes in effect and be applied non-discrimanatory in USA
if somebody smuggle sniper rifle into USA and used on MPAA executives(and repeat that until either caught or out of ammo or MPAA is out of top management),after police asks to surrender - this somebody surrender and confess) she will punished less severly than just uploading before official release?
I think I know this country
(becouse I'm remember about almost same(or it was same?) incident,
but in one I remember it was slightly different:
- GPS device was professional-class one and was _needed_ for this person to do work he officially comes to (installing new model CDMA base station needs it.
- he was near military installation
- there was outrage even _inside_ said country(and it was only one issue with it).
- GPS devices are sold(and were sold before) in this country a lot.
in Russia this situation resolved in rather interesting way:
- there were early attempts to make computer based-ebooks with heavy protection(publicant). They failed. Not becouse it was easy to crack. But becouse it was almost unusable and nobody paid.
- "common" format(FB2,basically specialized kind of XML) becomes popular due to...well, places where you can books for free
- FB2 is used _everywhere_ (even Kindles which are imported are usually re-flashed with firmware to support them,allmost all other readers(onyx boox,etc) have native support). (and if you get FB2 - you usually can RTF/ePub/HTML from same source,due to fact that FB2 can be easily converted).
- all current commercial e-book sellers in Russia(litres.ru,imobilco.ru,etc) right now _sell FB2_ . E-book is archived for download as much as you want...
And people ARE buying them.
- of course if you want to lend it to somebody - it's entirely up to you will you sent link to store or will you sent fb2 file.
They are...rather focused company(on SciFi mainly)
and even if they are out of business - you keep your downloaded books and use them on any device
(right now they offer pdf(normal one,not adobe digital editions),epub,html(zipped),rtf...)
There are other cases except your 2,for example:
There is a good SciFi series of 4 books.
Except that it is impossible to buy ANY electronic version of 4rd one(it is in kindle store - but limited to USA only). Other electronic versions are available...in USA only again.
(previous parts were sold via Baen's Webscription,and bought by me for example)
What I should do?I was ready to pay.except they don't want to get money.
Tried,honestly find ways.after 2 hours give up and fired up eMule,after some time problem solved(for me)
RTFM -:)
In this case each of your PCs on internal network will have several IPv6 different addresses. And they are automatically configured(even without DHCPv6)
(you still can configure manually, if you want).
I also thought about using username+something@mydomain.com
But found interesting problem:not a small number of sites are thinking that + is incorrect to use in e-mail address.
Yes, _I_ think it's RFC violation. So what I have to do?ask them to fix their broken system? -:)
p.s.After that I use catch-all and filters (and username_something@mydomain.com).works good so far
for me it's
1.Linux(not apache but linux itself, many distributions)
2.VMware Workstation
3.Webmoney Transfer
4.Visual C++
5.EVE Online -:)
6.Fidonet software(Golded+/T-Mail|Argus/HPT for me)
7.Symbian OS
8.Doom (first one)
9.IRC
10.LLVM(may seem strange but yes, it is)
I don't need to remember.
I still use it -:)
Together with Jabber and (work related only) Yahoo Messenger
p.s.ICQ(but not 'official' client and this is causes issues periodically) is very popular in Russia
Have you looked at http://www.goscomb.net/services/
They are UK
They have ADSL,Leased lines,etc
(in addition to hosting services)
on their ADSL-you will get/128 by default. If you request - you will get/48
on their leased lines-you will get/48 from them
They even have IPv6 DNS servers
p.s.I personally use their hosting services only(i'm not in UK), and IPv6 was one of reasons I didn't go to alternative provider.
I had same situation(only different trial code was used so I have 100US$ trial)
In my case IP from which I originally registers even doesn't correspond to my country(there is reason for that) and i got failed transaction.
In several days I tried registering again(from home with IP corresponding to country), got message that registered arleady.
After that I tried to login with password from original registration - voila!, account WAS fully created.
p.s.Now if GoGrid allows for 'normal' clould computing as FlexiScale/EC2 do(and not billing for down servers as GoGrid does currently) that will be even more good. Getting to know WHY they are better than FlexiScale would also be good
Except that it's possible to write web app in C++
And using same ideas as GWT uses - just use Wt http://www.webtoolkit.eu/
FastCGI is required as interface (you can run your test server locally but for test only)
JavaScript code is generated by runtime
Server-side code itself is created in Qt-way (with signals,etc)
Dual licensed
And,btw, it can be crawled and it automatically downgrades (if you don't use custom widgets coded with JS-only support or graphics canvases) if client doesn't support AJAX

Rly? why not using one-way(or even 2-way) satellite link?(yes, fair use policy and caps...)
well, may be they supply it. in my case situation is like that: 50mbit/s up/down according to speedtest.net to city ix, but only about 10 mbit/s to european test points I'm paying for 50.I'm from Russia(if anyone interested, no cap, price is about 35USD/month).
