Well, seeing as how I spent the last couple of weeks programming a Firefox extension I can tell you that the only javascript that gets access to the trusted Components are chrome:// urls (which by the way you cannot open from an ordinary web page, go ahead and try it) and signed JARs which you have to tell it to trust. No assumptions are made about local intranet. Even stuff run from a file:// URL will not have the privileges that chrome:// gets. I just know about this because I just spent some time programming a custom protocol handler, just to so I can launch my extension from a web page. Of course, I'm not saying I know everything about the browser, maybe I'm missing something.
My bad, I guess I owe them a little bit, as it also covers 0.86.2. So therefore it did have a bug until a few days ago. Although, the title is still hilariously sensationalist for something thats patched. Here's a better title, Open Source Software Gets Patched Before Wide Spread Recognition of Bug.
Just to show that CNet News is not unbiased against open source. Bugs Found In Open Source AntiVirus Tool talks about a bug that was only in versions from June 23 and BEFORE. And yet it makes the headlines today. And with an advertisement for Trend Micro. How peculiar.
Do you really copy stuff on your local subnet that often? Go get a cup of coffee or something. I mean maybe at work or something but definetely not at the home.
Well, there is difference between putting a website up for public consumption, and me putting my wallet in my back pocket. To make your analogy more correct you would have to say I left a pile of money on the ground outside my door turned around for a while and when I looked back somebody I didn't want to take the money was walking away with my money.
Don't forget the super sharp 640x200 black and white mode. Sweeeeet. I remember booting into basica and playing with all the circles, lines, and pixels I wanted.
Well, it had 128MB memory. And the reason it really gets loaded down is because hourly I have clamscan scan everybody's mailboxes including inside zips, rars, etc. (this takes a while, but its mainly to ensure that I don't dish out a virus thats discovered after the mail has been received). And also, its the proxy server for the local LAN (about 200 computers). Now that I updated the RAM to 512 its not bad though. And also, all connections use AUTH over TLS/SSL (including SMTP for outbound connections). The real killer though is running clamscan on all the zip files in peoples mailboxes (we receive lots of multimegabyte zip attachments). When you say the load is 0.25, what metric are you specifying? 0.25% 25%? On our system with the increased RAM it tends to hover around 30% to 60% while clamscan does its business.
I found the following to be very easy to deploy and maintain, requiring only a minimal amount of time. Granted we only have about a hundred email addresses but, still I spend very very little time maintaining this setup:
QMail (SMTP and POP3)
QMailScanner with
SpamAssassin and ClamAV
BincIMAP
And its all running off a 1.8GHz P4 (granted with high load).
The network is an IP network. TCP and UDP can run on top of IP networks. Although, as I digressed from my original oppinion above, I do realize that TCP/IP is an officially recognized term for the combination of all the recognized technologies. Originally, I was just under the misconception that TCP/IP was just a term that came out of common usage. But now I know there is even a whole RFC devoted to it. My bad. But UDP still has nothing to do with TCP in general.
Yes, I digressed from my original oppinion above. I have just read the RFC "TCP/IP Tutorial" (Note: I have read many RFCs in their entirety including IP,TCP,UDP,ICMP I just didn't read that one). I just assumed that vendors clumped it all into a TCP/IP driver and that term just became the common term. Although, referring to UDP as being part of TCP/IP sounds ludicrous as TCP is in no way involved with UDP.
Well, there is a UDP/IP defined a little later in the RFC, but you're right there is also the TCP/IP Protocol Suite which is the combination of them all. So, I guess technically UDP is part of TCP/IP. But even the RFC on TCP/IP says:
A more accurate term is "internet technology".
Which I would assume would imply that they thought that the clumping together of TCP/IP was kind of misleading.
As a rule, if someone says just "TCP" or just "IP", they're talking about that specific protocol, but if they say TCP/IP, they're talking about the entire suite
No that means they are talking about TCP on top of IP. IP being the protocol to get from IP-address A to IP-address B. TCP being the stateful protocol that ensures data's arrival/correctness on a particular port.
Probably. I read about a lot of crap from Maddog and stuff like that. But I have yet to see a verified write up IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM from Linus himself. Where is the proof that Linus is behind this?
No, I've never used IB / Xcode, give me a Mac and I might try it. But Glade is damn simple. And yes I have used it. I've also used Delphi and other RAD environments. Granted these RAD environments might be a little easier since its part of a larger IDE, but Glade is still pretty simple. Try pyglade or glade#.

He didn't say South Park was made with Blender, he was saying South Park is made in a 3d modelling program.

Its *not* stealing, if you *give* the bandwidth to them. Which *is* what you do, when you *put* a server online.

Good point
Well, the only part of your statement that you can't do is not give away the source to people you sell it too.

There is UDP/IP and TCP/IP.

Add up your costs, its not worth it.

Glade is just as simple for linux to layout an interface.
I don't know, your band didn't look very nerdy. Hmmmmm.
You have to love that episode, if you're a nerd I mean.
Saving enery is pretty much equivalent in one form or another.
