No, we had one machine running apache from a flash drive, the other hundreds of computers we used each day in class in the various labs/classrooms would all be connected to it whenever we used them.
I said "using" instead of ", use" excuse me for not typing out a completely perfect sentence. To clarify: we used putty, told it to use a certain port, connected to the "server" using that port. You then go into firefox's proxy settings and say "192.168.*.*" and the port you told putty to connect to the server on. This routes all your http traffic through that ssh pipe on that specific port. The school blocked ssh and ssl, but only going out or coming in, intranet use wasn't blocked. So your connection is going through the local server hidden by an ssh connection, but the local server is still going to broadcast in the clear and it can't connect to the home server using ssh; however for some reason they left vpn open so we would connect the machines with vpn. This was to prevent them from seeing twenty or so vpn connections all to the same place, instead they saw one constant one and apparently never checked the logs from the routers in each room to notice that that one connection also had hundreds of different ssh connections to it throughout the day. I hope that explains it in enough detail for you, or should I go into the exact settings and configuration files we used? Would you also like a story on the other things kids do to school computers to get around software or network restrictions? I'm pretty sure there is a commonly held belief that if you have physical access to a machine, no type of security can stop you; well the hundreds of thousands of school kids constantly figuring out ways to get around filtering, blocking, and restricting systems seems to prove that maxim really well.
I graduated from highschool in 2008; every few months the county would roll out a new filtering system designed to block myspace/facebook/sourceforge/other questionable stuff. It would take the tech students about 15 minutes to figure out either a new workaround or modify an old one to get around the new filter. This would then filter down to the technologically illiterate kids in a about a month, prompting the release of a new blocking system. Repeat process. The end use of this was we wound up running an apache server off a flash drive on one machine which everyone would ssh to locally using firefox's proxy settings and that "server" would connect to a home server which acted as the gateway. Kids will find a way around it, so I doubt it will work for long in schools.
Where the anti-gun activists fail is refusing to acknowledge that sometimes it's necessary to use a gun, and that not all uses are bad, and in such circumstances a tool which makes it easier is a benefit, not a drawback. These people refuse to admit that there is ever a reason where using a gun is acceptable, so anything which enables someone to use one is inherently evil. To them, someone who kills a rapist in self-defence is just as guilty and evil as a serial murderer who eats children. That's what allows them to paint gun owners with such a broad brush. That being the case, the concept of "safe" handling of a gun, or "responsible" use of one are totally impossible in their vision of the world. When you say "it's ok for responsible people to carry guns in public" they hear the equivalent of "it's ok for responsible people to rape and murder women". That emotional hard-wiring is why they're impossible to reason with. They lack the rational capacity of their fellow human beings. It's just that they're so numerous we can't classify them as mentally ill.

WebTV is unfortunately still around, their users like to join IRC networks and act like uniform asshats and idiots. They jump in the room, ask a/s/l and then proceed to attempt to insult and curse everyone in the room. It is very similar to the way AOL users used to act. A normal WebTV user's comment will be something along the lines of "53/m/ny, lking 4 strt bi cyber, whisper me" and when told to go away they will use their stunningly high IQ of 80 to mock the person. They are a cancer of the internet and unfortunately aren't going away anytime soon, hell they now offer broadband for webtv users, which is really pathetic considering it's a non-storable single task version of windowsME.
Our nuclear weapons release doctrine states that germs = gas = nukes. If any one of those three are used on us, we can respond in kind and all of our release requirements are satisfied.
I graduated from highschool two years ago, and I've never seen that way of figuring out the fraction of a number doing it that way is actually novel for me, the system I remember is a lot more complicated and stupid.
Just what I want, pop ups in my head triggering all my senses. Although 90% of it will be porn so we shouldn't complain. Along with that, full sensory recording would be really cool.
I met a devil media, they took my music away
They said I had it comin' to me, but I wanted it that way
I think that any music is good music
And so I took what I could get, mmm
Oooh, oooh, they looked at me with big brown eyes
And said
You ain't seen nothin' yet
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain't seen nothin' yet
Here's something that you never gonna forget
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain't seen nothin' yet
And now I'm feelin' better, 'cause I found out for sure
They took me to their lawyer and he told me of a cure
He said that only their music is good music
So I took what I could get, yes, I took what I could get
Oooh, and they looked at me with big brown eyes
And said
You ain't seen nothin' yet
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain't seen nothin' yet
Here's something, here's something that you're never gonna forget
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain't seen nothin' yet
You need educated
Any music is good music
So I took what I could get, yes, I took what I could get
And then, and then, and then they looked at me with big brown eyes
And said
You ain't seen nothin' yet
Baby, you just ain't seen nothin' yet
Here's something, here's something,
here's something, mama, you're never gonna forget
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain't seen nu-nu-nu-nothin' yet
You ain't been around
You ain't seen nothin' yet
I know I ain't seen nothin' yet
I know I ain't seen nothin' yet
Baby, Baby, Baby
You ain't seen nothin' yet
A technical, hardware, software, and geek usability failure maybe; but not a failure on apple's part to market the hell out of it, convince a bunch of people it's awesome, and doing it with nothing more than a large sized ipod touch. You have to hand it to apple, they do make a very nice UI for laymen. Only those of us who frequent technology sites like slashdot care about what can be done with it and all the unique ways to do it, everyone else just wants a pretty device that does neat things and that they can't possibly break by deleting/system32/ or whatever. Apple simplified a design they've been going with for years, create a device so easy, their lobotomised customers with ADD feel like they're doing something important with it and can understand how it works.
I would love to see a properly and accurately done Night's Dawn Trilogy, unfortunately they would probably turn it into another abortion like the LOTR movies, or the planned rape of The Wheel of TIme that they have been talking about turning into a set of movies.
DHS says Cell-All will operate only on an opt-in basis and will transmit data anonymously.
Right, because the DHS has such a fine track record of opt-in, anonymous data, and not using it for other purposes. While they might have opt-in it will be buried under pages of the cellphone contract or settings and will be on by default requiring the user to spend a few hours figuring out where it is hidden to turn it off. Anonymous transmission, maybe anonymous by the fact it relays cell tower coordinates with an identifier number through which they can gain the personal information "only" by asking the cell provider.
My question is, how often are dangerous chemicals released in the air for this to be needed? Places which handle dangerous chemicals already have detection systems in place, it's not often you hear of a city being evacuated because of some sort of toxic accident. Or is it to help combat terrorism? It sounds to me like it's a location based detection system which will be [ab]used to detect drugs and other activities instead of to "protect the public".
It's amazing that a random crash could type "#*&&&%>... [RETURN] NO CARRIER" hit preview and then submit. I guess enough monkeys bashing away on typewriters can create Shakespeare is true.
Can I sign up for your newsletter? I argue the 10th amendment pretty much every time a debate like this comes up and people dismiss it because they only know the first 2-3. Here at college I have seen a disgusting trend towards "the constitution is broken so let's just ignore it" among both students and teachers and I can't wrap my mind around how they came up with such a idiotic idea.
Government intrusion into healthcare caused the cost to go up, restricting the number of doctors, requiring cookie cutter instead of modular health insurance plans, "oversight" and "control" which create bureaucratic empire building jobs, all increasing the cost while doing little to help.
Even if it were constitutional, the public wanted it, and it got signed into law, does anyone really want the people who can't manage the programs already there? Medicare is billions of dollars in debt, the Post Office is as well, and the VA hospital is one of the most poorly run, inefficient, and costly medical service there is. If they cannot even give affordable, quality healthcare to our veterans, how well do you think it will work for everyone?
