yeah, my cell phone provider, sprint, was giving me grief. they kept calling me on my sprint phone to sell me sprint service. I kept yelling at them "i already HAVE sprint service, this is a SPRINT telephone." they kept calling me anyways. i told them that if they didnt stop calling me, i was going to shoot my dog. they kept calling me. eventually i shot my dog. i mailed them the dog in a box. i knew i was screwed with the dogs name on his leash got in their DB cause i started getting calls on my SPRINT phone for the dog, for additional service plans. I miss my dog.
WHOA there cowboy. Some of us out here enjoy an occasional ice cold beer or two or three, and I think I'm not alone in saying that we don't always hit the target. Don't discriminate against drunken surfers! If all the requests are for port 80, say, best be you lettin' us in anyways, boy.
ARIN doesnt care what you do with anything smaller than a/29. 16 IP blocks and larger you do, though. Hell there's colo servers you can rent that'll give you a/24! What a waste, that is. But they'll allow for the excuse that someone has a crap web server that can't do name based hosting. Like ugh... what was that. Cold Fusion! as recently as 2002 needed one IP per website.
And of course, if you don't document who's using what, they don't do anything about it anyways. God help you if you want more IPs, though.
i'd like a freely available phoneme pack (or whatever i should call it properly) that sounds as good as AT&T's natural voices. last time i used festival, i was just so put off by the available voice packs that i gave up on the project i was working on. That was a few years ago, but I bet it hasn't changed much. (i use a program called swatch that watches my log files and then plays computer voices just telling me what the hell is going on. sitting on the couch watching family guy and hearing that someone just arped on my lan is more intuitive than me getting an email about it. and it has its own channel on the mixer so when i have my harem over to please me on thursday nights, i just put the slider all the way down.) yeah.
I live in a mill building on both sides of a river. There's 310 apartments with about 700 to 1100 people, I guess. When I moved in during May 2003, there was 7 broadcasting wireless networks. When we renewed our lease this May, we warwalked it again and there were 22. Both times, about 60% were completely wide open, and about 75% of them were linksys devices. One fellow across the river must have a booster or something because his network punches through way too many walls. He would seem to be on the interior side, facing the river, and I can get him on the opposite side of his building, as well as into my own building on the opposite side of the river. My roommate's girlfriend lives down the hallway and she can see exactly 6 wireless networks. 3 are wide open.
With people giving away USB 802.11b cards for free, the temptation to steal all that free interenet is just well, it's inevitable that it gets used.
Oh, and we had this great idea! See, there's so many open wireless networks at our place, and so many people with open filesystem shares, that one of the things we do to make a little spare cash is that we use that unified network adapter linux has where you can bind interfaces together. It's a little sloppy but we effectively have an aggregate 12.0 megabit connection out, and 1.2 megabit connection in, from the internet over 4 wireless lans we connected to. Then we did some filesystem on a filesystem type things with the open file shares and made a psuedo RAID using the neighbor's unknowingly shared directories. We can sell 1.2 megabit webhosting for 12.95 a month with zero infrastucture costs. I guess if I had to describe it in a word I'd say that it's "sweet."
according to this recent report, "... in conclusion demonstrating that children who are on their feet pose the greatest threat to the DHSHomeView FunPack being integrated into most popular video game consoles being marketed in the United States market... "
from the article: "Dance Dance Revolution," which U.S. officials strongly resisted bringing over from Japan, has proven to be a lasting change to gameplay.
then it doesnt say why they resisted it. And who the officials are.
after reading the article, no one suggests that it could be complete jibberish. How do they know it's not completely random? There's people out there like myself who enough of a bastard to do exactly that to baffle people for as long as the memorial exists...
I read that slot machines on the corners are rigged to win more often, cause they're the most visible. So always play the corner ones cause they got that extra 1-3% favor.:D
i used to do stuff like that too, but now he just sprints into his bedroom and locks the door when he gets home, so it has to be virtual abuse these days.
Every 5 or 6 days I'll hear him screaming at the top of his lungs and going "HOW IS THIS BETTER THAN WINDOWS?!" And I just snicker at him... screw this advocacy stuff, sometimes you gotta enjoy life!

Hypocritically, "American" could refer to just about anyone on either of the two continents in the Western Hemisphere.
dude, run that third drive hot and rsync your data diffs every 30 minutes. i'd rather lose 30 minutes than up to a week.

check it every now and then, if it's expired. it seems to cycle through after each expiration. i grabbed mine after the first time i saw it expire.

What if it takes 262,980 hours worth of time distributed over 30,000 slashdotters trying to verify your math, and we find that it's off? Same thing?
ah, i finally found the reason.

Put the headphones on one of those old telephone hooks, where when you lift the receiver you get the tone. That's like EE 101, I think. Right?
