Of course Linux detects ARP broadcasts, otherwise you'd never to be able to talk to other machines on your local subnet! (Making you one very lonely pr0n surf3r)
I don't know why BSD bothers logging ethernet address changes, probably because Timmy O'Tool is a paranoid little dude.
The fact that the ISP gateway's MAC is changing probably means that you have a moronic ISP. Either that, or that a box on your local subnet has been compromised and is trying out a clever spoofing attack -- which would leave your internet service sporadic at best until they killed the real gateway.
What you're saying is that some kind of license that exists that would allow me to steal code from you, stick it in the kernel, and have it become free.
That's completely stupid, the only way that could happen is to globally strike down all copy right laws, so that the concept of ownership no longer existed, making that license useless.
It's like saying, "Let's make a parking lot where when a car enters, it becomes community property. Then nobody can claim they own one of the cars in there!". Even if you made one, do you really think that car owners wouldn't be able to retrieve their stolen vehicles?
That's not a side effect, dip shit -- that is in fact reality.
The other reality is that, in fact, there is an army of Mark MacGuire clones, hidden underground in the sewers of the cities, waiting to act should another satellite fall from the sky.
These are resumes they HAVE to keep -- not data they WANT to keep. Who cares if you can find it later?
All you have to do is to do is give them unique filenames (not hard -- a timestamp would suffice) and dump them to a harddrive. When the harddrive hits ~600 MB, burn it to CD, erase it, and toss the CD in a filing cabinet drawer.
- MailBlocks is owned by Phil Goldman, the WebTV millionaire
- Phil Goldman is skilled in the art of computing, and so he _obvious_ly thought of using a Challenge/Response system for stopping Spam.
- He's a.com millionaire, and former employee of Apple, Generial Magic, and knows what patents are worth, so he did a patent search
- Found patent 6,199,102 (Granted March 2001), and bought it from Christopher Alan Cobb
- Found patent 6,112,227 (Granted August 2000), and bought the owner, Jeffrey Nelson Heiner, who signed over all rights
- Patents are "one of the largest expenses that we (at Mailblocks) have."
- MailBlocks has also sued Spam Arrest (case pending in WA), DigiPortal, and MailFrontier (resolutions unknown)
- MailBlocks actually started suing before releasing a product of their own.
- Goldman regularly responds to penis enlargement spams with his credit card number and a request to have them delivered in a plain brown paper wrapper
- So far, none of them have worked (somebody should tell him creation != enlargement)
Here is an interesting article: http://www.siliconvalley.com/mld/siliconvalley/556 5843.htm
Actually, 60s Triumph Motorcycles use Whitworth fasteners... 60s BSA bikes used CEI/BSC fasteners (like Whitworth fasteners, only with a 60-degree thread pitch, instead of 55). Actually, the BSA bikes also used BSW fasteners in certain places, like cylinder head studs. And there were the BA fasteners, 47.5 degree thread pitch, used for the really little screws.
But of course, all the new ones use metric fasteners. Only Hardley Ablesons still use fasteners with UNC or UNF threads.
It is still possible to buy BSW and BSF fasteners and such; but Lord help the company that uses them on anything new.
Actually, now that I think about it, I'm surprised Compaq didn't use BSF fasteners on their old cases. Torx wasn't nearly annoying enough.
> Any time you go beyond function and into form, > you are creating art on some level.
Actually, you can call the complete lack of form art, too -- where the artistic part of your brain gets tickled by the sheer functionality of the device.
That's the great thing about art. There IS no definition, although there is a litmus test: Do ou think it's art? Then to you, it is.
I could shit in a paper bag and call it art. If somebody sees and thinks it's art, then it's art for him too.
You see, you just can't define it any other way. To me, the Mona Lisa might just be a picture of some chick. Someone else might consider it art? Whose right? They both are.
So, is HTML art? Sure, you can call the code art. You can call the definition art. You can call the output art. Whatever.
You should be able to fix it with some Jeweler's Rouge and a lot of rubbing. I don't know where the "right" place to buy it is, I usually get some from the same place I bought my eyeglasses.

How about we push a bill through congress, and call it "The Alien Registration Act"? This act would make it illegal for anyone in the United States to advocate, abet, or teach the desirability of overthrowing the government. The law would also require all alien residents in the United States over 14 years of age to file a comprehensive statement of their personal and occupational status and a record of their political beliefs.
That would be a big step toward combatting terrorism.
Then we could get the House of Un-American Activies Committee to investigate, well, gee, just about everybody on that list. Maybe they could even start with members of the MPAA, since we all hate them, anyhow. We could follow them around, search their houses (without warrants), and ruin their lives. We could demand that they tell us who their associates are, ignore their pleas for respecting their first amendment rights, and imprison them if they give us answers we don't like. If they "name names", that should be good enough to do the same to those they name.
We could get the FBI to start maintaining a huge blacklist of people who we suspect maybe might be terrorists, and make sure that if anybody hires those people (even unknowingly), they get blacklisted, too. We could even get the FBI to spy on random citizens, and if they had even an inkling they maybe might be terrorists or something, we could ruin their lives too (hey, it's for the greater good, right?). We could especially target people who sound like the people we're at war with -- wouldn't that be great for the IT industry? No more Iraqis to steal our jobs! Hell, we could get them to arrest all the dark-skinned people who talk funny, too -- so we could get rid of all the Indians, Afghans, and Pakistanis who are stealing our jobs. That would be wonderful! (Who cares if they are immigrants or citizens or on H1 visas -- they're not the same as us, they don't deserve the same rights!)
We could also go after people with the same religion as those we're at war with, because they'd almost certainly have the same political beliefs.. and particularly go after those in the military. Hey, we already had one guy with a funny last name lob some grenades at our guys in Kuwait! So, we could use that incident as an excuse to lock up all the Muslims. Now we're talkin'!
Now, here's the tough question.... what kind of a person could we trust to start such a witch hunt? Maybe a senator from Wisconsin.... who are the senators from Wisconsin right now? I can't remember... but I remember that fifty years ago, it was a fellow named Joseph McCarthy.
Thank God for men like Eisenhower and Nixon. If it wasn't for them, half the country would probably be rotting in jail by now.
Don't laugh. I had to take 1st-year linear algebra four times before I passed it.
It was moderately difficult, but most of all boring. Really boring. Far more boring than coding, so of course I never went to the lectures or did the homework. Hell, it was far more boring than cleaning my appartment, and that never got done, either.
And, in case you care, I can code circles around damn near everybody I know.
Just don't ask me to do any graphics programming. Too much linear algebra.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but ARP was not a cellular network, but a semi-automatic network with a bunch of base stations and uplink channels.
A similar car phone network, but smaller than ARP, was in place in Chicago during the 1930s. Al Capone used a car phone -- but not a CELLULAR phone.
This article is not about car phones, it's about CELLULAR phones.
BIG difference. Non-cellular car phones are, for all intents and purposes, more powerful versions of the wireless phone you have in your house hooked to a PBX. Cellular phones do things like frequency and tower-hopping in order to keep a customer connected along a very large geographic area.
Just pull the harddrive, and stuff it into another laptop. Just make sure you have a few different kernels pre-built when you stuff the drive back into the Itronix, so you can tell LILO what to try next..

...that would only yield { CR, LF, NUL, NUL } on a system with 4-bit chars.
And, uh, that would be a hard system to get any real work done on, given that there are way more than 15 characters in the alphabet.
You guys are all doorknobs.

In the first example, you return 1 if a and b are both not zero.
In the second example, you return 1 if either a (inclusive) or b are not zero.
Lose a pipe from the second example to do bitwise or.
If comments span multiple lines, the debugging information will point to different source lines in the two binaries.
Of course, depending on how they strip and optimize their code, it may be irrelevant anyhow.
Unless, of course, there is someone out there with an old SCO source license...

Close, but cigar.
People use *nix where the asterix is attached to the suffix 'nix' in a glob expression.
People use f*ck to get around anti-swear word filters on BBSes and such.
