I was surprised that the NRO (National reconnaissance office) was fully visible in the latest 2002 batch of USGS photos. In the old photos it appeared as nothing but a field. Then again the DoD didn't even admit it existed until 1992, and its present location in Chantilly, VA was classified until 1994. It was hilarious, before 1994 it was played off as the "Honeywell building." With 24/7 armed guards and all those satellite dishes? Yeah right! For you Northern Virginians it's that huge building across 28 from the Capital Expo Center right before the 28/50 exits.
I was going to try and check it out with NASA's World Viewer but couldn't get at it before the server fried.
Hope I don't fry the server too bad, my boss wouldn't be happy... unless it generated some revenue. (Yes Bruce, that's my way of saying sorry. The shell server? It's done for.)
Hell yeah there are still little ISP's left. But that style of thinking is what keeps us little. They'll go with Earthlink or Verizon without even considering that some little ISP like PatriotNet would provide quality dialup and DSL service with perks like free linux shell accounts, static ip's, and control of your reverse.

Hah! I'd expect to find this article on Smokedot but not here. But oh well, while there's an intelligent audience: LSD was huge in the 60's and 70's but has greatly diminished in recent years. This decline is due primarily to incredibly reduced availability on the black market. LSD is not easily produced, and the punishment for possession of even small amounts resulted in ridiculous amounts of jail time. Because of these factors youth these days hardly have the opportunity to influence their mind with LSD. This doesn't mean that kids these days don't trip, they've just found other ways. Some of the modern popular psychedelics are:
5-MeO-DiPT (Foxy) - Similar to LSD with some of the "rolling" effects of MDMA (ecstacy)
2C-T-2 - Very powerful hallucinogen
What makes these "new" drugs so interesting is that many have not yet been scheduled by the DEA. Although a few on the list above were recently added to Schedule 1 by an emergency scheduling process.

A lot of modern "drug dealers" buy these chemicals cheap on the internet and sell them in their locality. A couple popular distributors are:

Mp3's are already ready for public consumption. The public already has access to the song, be it on the radio, a cd in a store, in a friend's car, whatever. By downloading that song you are getting a copy of the finished product that many others already have.
Source code, however, is definitely not in a form for public consumption. Nobody should have the source code unless they're part of the project.
Stealing the source code would be analogous to stealing the band that makes the music, not the finished product.

Has anyone tried this on a Linksys router other than the WRT54G? My BEFSR41 4 port cable/dsl router is still running strong, and I would love to have telnetd and the such on running on it!
By taskbar, do you mean the Quick Launch toolbar? If so, mine keeps reordering itself as well. The icons closest to the start menu sometimes disappear (usually the show desktop thing for me) even though they are still in the Quick Launch folder. Anyone know if this is a known bug and/or if it is documented? Google was useless.
Well first off this isn't flamebait, it's true, but I guess you can't argue with the mods. I was blown away after visiting Helsinki four years ago. The bums on the streets had cell phones! We (Americans) are kind of slow to adopt.
But anyway, I've used both AT&T's and T-Mobile's (formerly VoiceStream) GSM network to sms people in Europe and Asia without a problem.
That was my first thought too. Imagine if there are actually something like 5 or 6 "layered" Matricies. So Zion and that whole world is just some prog running on a greater Matrix which is running on a greater Matrix.

Big difference.

I also use passwords that I do not consciously remember, but in a much less obscure manner.
Instead of basing a password on a word, I base passwords on keyboard finger patterns.
For example, one of my passwords might be "pqlsnv" or maybe "ju7ft6la"
Open notepad and type one of them out. Go on, try it.
Note the alternating finger pattern.
You can create very complex passwords with this method that are virtually impervious to dictionary based password crackers.
Definitely a novelty in having a password that my fingers know by heart but my mouth couldn't recite if my life depended on it.

By taskbar, do you mean the Quick Launch toolbar? If so, mine keeps reordering itself as well. The icons closest to the start menu sometimes disappear (usually the show desktop thing for me) even though they are still in the Quick Launch folder. Anyone know if this is a known bug and/or if it is documented? Google was useless.

Very true. If you shell out an extra couple bucks for a "metro line" you can call even further at the price of a local call.
Nice perk.
Well first off this isn't flamebait, it's true, but I guess you can't argue with the mods. I was blown away after visiting Helsinki four years ago. The bums on the streets had cell phones! We (Americans) are kind of slow to adopt.

Let's see, helloworld.c is about 69 bytes. The Library of Congress is about 109,951,162,777,600 bytes.
So I guess that makes the predicted internet traffic in 2007 about 101,983,687,214,005,797 HWdC's (helloworld dot c's)/day.
A much more impressive number if you ask me.
