I can understand how degrees by coursework can benefit from this. It will be interesting if universities with real brands will ever allow master or doctorates to be via online study..
At least in Sweden this is getting more common for masters, doctorates are still campus-only. I have not done a comprehensive search for masters that are online-only but I know of master in GIS, sociology and psychology and some nurses-education. In some cases you are required to take some of the tests on campus or at a "education-center" bur can choose whichever are closest to you. Also in some courses like chemistry and biology there might be some classes that are on campus.
Three days? That is fast! I once was told that it would take three weeks for me to be unsubscribed, with a few mails each week. If I had known that I would be spammed so much I would have shopped at another site.
And I hate being forced to log on to unsubscribe! It should be possible with only a link in the mail.
I am not the one you are arguing with, I was only commenting on one of your conclusions which were wrong. This one to be more precise "apparently freedom house considers the usa to have a better ranking of freedom than those countries."
The outer walls of the Reactor 1 building have partially blown off, leaving only what looks like a steel frame. NHK is saying that a sensor within 5km of the plant is detecting radiation levels approaching 1015 microsieverts - that is apparently a year's worth of radiation exposure each hour.
1015 microsieverts by itself are meningless, you need the timescale. 1015 microsiverts per year are in the normal range of external background radiation.
The military has a survailliance (sp?) post on the sotheast coast, looking for foreign ships and submarines. A few kilometres from this post there is a nude beach. It was later found out that the military people mannig this post mostly filmed the nudie girls on the beach and distributed these movies on the net./Bornie
Slackware won't die. It just won't have a large marketshare, as it should be.
RedHat, Mandrake focuses on desktop-computers and will therefore be installed on a lot more computers while slackware - which focuses on servers - won't be installed on as many computers. And since the desktopmarket grows much faster than the servermarket RedHat and other "graphical" distros will grow faster.
I don't see any problem with this at all, every distro has its niche and slackware is a server-distro.
Yes, I know, I adressed that point in my original posting.
"This implies that all routes are static and no routers ever will go down. " and "If the IP of all intermediate routers are used in the encryption (which isn't clear) a change of route will make the current 'key' unusable."
And it is still easy to locate the point where all packet will converge in such way that the message will be plain since all packets has the same destination-adress. With omnidirectional sound that is not possible. This does not take in account that ones uplink (if one is an end host) will receive all packets and will be able to decrypt the message even though is is not meant for them.
If one want omnidirectionality in net-space one has to exclusivly use broadcast-packets which in this case should be routed indeffinitly. This is not only against several RFCs but are also foolish and will break the net. This still makes it possibly for the uplink for end-hosts to decrypt the message, it is not hard for that computer to calculate the result of the last hop for all relevant packets.
I don't want to see those broadcaststorms if this is used in a large scale.:)
"This holographic approach suggests a method of web encryption using multiple hop paths and ping times to create a message which can only be decoded when received at a specific target node!"
This implies that all routes are static and no routers ever will go down. It also implies that pingtimes are constant between routers/hosts. Both with are false.
If the IP of all intermediate routers are used in the encryption (which isn't clear) a change of route will make the current 'key' unusable. Further, the ping-time between hosts/routers vary alot as the use of internet vary and will also make this system unusable. A simple DoS-attack will completly destroy any encrypted data in transit which will make it only more insecure.
If one nation pingflood a site in another nation everything between those two points will go down or suffer. If an airport or an univeristyhospital is between the attacker and the target people may die.
It is very hard to make a pinpoint attack against a website from any one country.
If Sweden doesn't like nazis in german and we throw a few bombs on their hq's, German certanitly would consider that as an act of war. Why then should not a ping-flood be an act of war?

Humm.. 1000 times faster, 6000fps in Quake with this, do you really mean to imply that you only get 6fps in Quake with current technology?:)

Why would _anyone_ want to base their p2p IM in AOL's protocol?
It would seem much better to write a completly new protocol and use instead, and not a multi-purpose protocol, that won't work with all the overhead and giant bloatware like AOL/MS. A protocol made just for p2p IM and nothing else, no files, no sounds and so on. I would love that, my friends would love that. To bad it won't be big enough.

No, freedom house did not consider those countries worse than USA. None of these where even in the report.
