As an alchemist, your speaking of thermodynamics evokes all the sense of the astrologer pulling on Newtonian gravity to construct the bogus profundity of planetary convergence.
Do demonstrate this fulmination of hydrogen in a vacuum . ..perhaps try inhaling some and setting your hair alight. I'd be interested if your nose should drip.
Macro viruses are spread by executables. A "MS Office file" is a package of variables passed to an executable according to a conventional interface such as a *.doc to WINWORD.EXE.
Many a modern BIOS (eg AMI BX)can be set to allow no commits to an IDE channel from the standard configuration utility. There is no futzing with jumper shunts. Some SCSI hosts also offer this feature in firmware.
Well, I'm always glad to hear criticism from someone able to adjust to the stark fact of a world with a Star Wars film that is absolutely moronic. As the bicephalous pod race commentator/cartoon says, in an effort to reassure you that its all a joke on you, "In any universe, that's got to hurt." I at once respect you for such an existential constition and at the same time (if you actually assert that TPM was even a passable SW film) think you insane. Pehaps Lucas found that exihibition of spitting in Titanic a promising complement to his Star Wars with a fart joke!
"That's because the long-term future for private companies that have amassed their millions on proprietary code is one of diminishing returns."
Christ . . . this is just cant; exciting promise makes sentimental 'facts'. GNU is just as inevitable as Richard Stallman (one in a few million). My luck was his labor.
The report gives no detail as to the context of his reaction. Public remarks made in irritation don't allay one's irritation but hold one up to moralizing . ..like this. It's none of my business should Scott McNealy have a bad day and I won't mistake him for the company line.
Think a compelling OSS desktop is tough? GPL'd line-of-business manufacturing and supply chain management software . . . free-SAP; that's the work of a patriot! I'll assume he wasn't just saying this argumentatively (I'm convinced he almost never gives over to palaver). This sort of software goes for $2500-$11,000 per seat (depending on reputation it seems). Is this a declared project? Where do I sign up and what can I contribute (equipment, money, industrial eng research, code, APICS pulp, blood)?
This was not 'nifty', it was not secure. This whining along the line of "It never even occurs to me to telnet a host to logon as root because I'm such a benign guy/gal" is the most disturbing if these posts are being made by IT types. I hope I never have to enjoy the consequences of working with you. Here's an observation from my experiences-- equal opportunity laws don't really apply to systems and database admins. No one wants a finger-pointing idealist, optimist, or person of deep religious conviction in charge of systems (which extends to system/data integrity above all else). If this host was owned by actual Stanford CS students, they should consider it a tuition-free but priceless lesson.
Recently, I logged on with admin priv. to an engineering employees' NT box in order to update a driver a modify the swapfile. I immediately heard some lovely curses and my name called from the cubicle ajoining this workstation . . . very busy visualizer/drafter with a NT blue screen kernal crash. AGP cards were new on the market, his glide.dll thumped him, etc. In the time it took for two boots and a resoltion (seven minutes tops), the first employee had run a wildcard search for documents containing any part of her name and turned up plenty including a disciplinary recommend which she stashed away before meeting my return with a smile. It was, two hours later, emailed with annotations and grammery corrections about the company. I came forward and owned up immediately. That and NOT AN MITIGATION/EXPLANATION OF CIRCUMSTANCE saved my job. The employee was not disciplined. I had, in effect, delivered privledged company information to vendetta. I WAS THE ASSHOLE.

when you burn hydrogen, you create water.

With IE 5.0 released today, I'd download it to see the results. Anyone know of some examples?

Your sig made my day alright.
Is this DiMora above the greatest engineering minds or will he give the media more, obvious, fun.
Will Salt Lake be dubbed the "Shifty City" theologically, commercially, . . . quite technically?

I hope it wasn't used as a gateway to further malfeasance; no doubt this was reconnoitered by the root platoon.
Poor schmucks . . . lab sacked on the lord's day.
