I use it every day all day long and could not do my job wihtout it. But I would really love a GUI better than ethereal for it. Something that implempents the more advanced features of Sniffer Pro or whatever they are calling it this week. Better searches, better ability to highlight and get data. Also the enahancement I would really like to see in tcpdump (and thus all the frontends for it) would be the ability to filter on x.x.x.x x.x.x.x in other words to be able to see traffic from or too a specific IP and another IP. This comes up in testing for me all the time. For example I want to see if a given packet is making it from my PC to a device somewhere. If that device happens to be chatty it would be nice to be able to filter it down to between it and my PC. Since I'm normally admining at least one of the devices between me and it from the same PC all the workarounds feel clunky. So not so much a new app but ways in which a good app can be improved. For example when the put the -packet_trace function in nmap it became much more useful for me than it had been and it was already da bomb.
The original companies should be hurt. I don't like this idea nad don't think it would work but there is no diffrence between the spammers and the people who are paying them to spam.
Your second question would be right to the point. I don't think we should be using the computer at all. But if we are going to then there *needs* to be a paper ballot because without it the system is not auditable. Keep in mind recount is simply another way of saying audit.
You are kinda right. I can't speak to RH but I will speak to Debian. By definition a Debian install is done installing software after the first boot. You will note that the only thing the installer does by default after that is ask you to set up a root password, set up a regular user, and ask a couple of timezone questions. By default *no* other software is installed. Depending on if you let it set the security line in your apt sources you may get a some other packages. And a default Debian install has almost nothing.
So yea you are probably right they took a out of the box XP install and compared it to a Linux install with a lot of extra stuff installed. Or at least stuff that would have not been installed by default in Debian.
You have misunderstood the argument. Machines with paper trails would be insanely expensive because the n W would have to buy votes the old fashioned way and that costs much more money than hacking the system. This would be very expensive for him. See they said the machines would be expensive just not for who. Hope this clears it up for you.:)
Who says you take it home or that it has any personal info at all. Certainly not anyone I've seen. Simple it prints you see it through a window and push a button to make it drop in a box. Just like you do with a paper ballot today. The paper ballot in use today *is* a varifiable receipt all we want is to not take a step back. Where did anyone in this thread talk about taking anything with your name on it home? BTW there is a simple solution to the problem that already exists it is illegal to do what you think would happen in all 50 states. You report the person and prove it. They should have a hard time fucking with your carrer from prison.
Many cryptosystems are based off of doing complex math based off of very large random prime numbers. That is the connection anyway. I'm not sure that knowing all the primes would simplify any of the processes at all. But then again I'm just a crypto consumer.
As a floppy replacement they are great. I've had mine since the middle of Janurary. My kids have gotten ahold of it a few times and it has survived that I used to carry it in my pocket now I just carry it in my bag it seens to work fine. But here is the thing that you mentioned that is just what it is a a floppy/burning less than 256 meg to a cd replacement. For example I use mine to carry music between work and home. I use it to grab config files off of machines that are on another network/domain. I use it for putting VPN clients on lusers machines that aren't on the network. In short I use it for temporary storage and transfer where doing it that way is faster/easier than doing it over the network. Sometimes I do it just to impress chicks.:) But I would never use it for long term storage of anything I care about and don't have in another spot, they just aren't designed for that. But then again back in the day I know plenty of folks who would do just that with floppies.
Wish I could get work to buy me another one.:) Count your blessings.
I have to agree they do mention that the neck strap is a bit flimsy and they are right. When my 2 yo got it in his grubby little proto-geek paws the neck strap was the only thing that broke. All in all it is the best 50 bucks I ever gave Costco (Mine is 256 and the "old" model with write lock). Saves me all kinds of time at work. This is really one of those things that I bought cause I had a little extra cash and it was "cool" but once you have it you very quickly start using it *everywhere*. Works out of the box on every system I've stuck it on. Great little device. And if you really need durability they have a couple of models that are built with that in mind.
The parent assumes that Science and Art are mutually exclusive. I propose that any non-idiot knows damn good and well that they are not. Da Vinci among other proves this to be just silly. I mean this is like arguing if programming is a science or a art. The answer is if you can combine the two you come up with some rocking stuff. If you can't you get nothing good. Alton's purpose is to give you the tools to be able to then "hack" food. Two years ago I could follow recipies and make good stuff. Now I can look at a pile of food and figure out how to make something. Because I understand the science I can let my creative side come up with cool stuff.
Geeks and cooking is also interesting. Metion Good Eats on #debian and most of the time you will find a handful of other folks who also love to cook.
I have to agree. I still love Batali and I still think Flay is a tool. The thing that surprised me was just how cool Puck is. I never paid much attention to him and had just written him off as a California phoney who knew some movie stars. After watching this I now know that I'm wrong and that he brings some serious talent to the table. So yea very cool

It would seem that I have a lot to learn. Thanks for the tips. :)
/. took my arrow out it was supposed to be x.x.x.x -> x.x.x.x

Does it hurt not to have a sense of humor?

They don't have a choice. I'm very happy having been able to tell Qwest to piss up a rope.

I was trying to woo a hot chick by singing the bat song today. :)
So that's what I've been doing wrong.
Does the same go for Penny Arcade?
Yes and so is m4a
AAC is *not* lossless. It is much better than mp3 just as good as ogg. But not lossless.

Which is just another reason we should adopt the Kzinti model. :)

What?
1. Get Tivo.
2. Tell Tivo to record Futurama.
3. Let Tivo record Futurama while I sleep.
4. Watch Futurama at a better time.
The nast in the pasty part was there to show how unlike most cartoons Futurama has a bit of a story arc.
It's true I did the nasty in the pasty.
:)
Another cool thing about it is that there is actually a bit of a story arc. I've gotta get a tivo so I can watch it before 11 at night.

Me I blame all the confusion on Europe.

Yup this is why I'm am all for nuking Europe from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
