You can do that w/ sendfax, its pretty easy, and works. Look in the sendfax docs (dont remember which file in/usr/doc/sendfax it is) but there is a pointer to a web page that tells you how to use this program called respond? (grep respond/usr/doc/sendfax/) that allows you to print to a special printer in windows that is actually a fax, then respond opens and asks for the phone number etc. Works nicely, and its all free software I believe --nrl
Do what I did, go to bigfoot (www.bigfoot.com), and sign up for an address there, then add a procmail filter to delete all mail to that address. (It just forwards the mail to your real address)
I ordered some last time, and they came broken. The controller works sometimes, and the plugin part works all the time, but the lamp part just doesnt work at all. Oh well, least it was only 6 bucks...
This article was posted well over a year ago, possibly even two. Only then the article didnt have a picture of a pentium II at the top. It only had the pipe screen looking thing at the bottom.
of course the people that are doing these things might not want the software to be publically accepted. they like being different and "more advanced" by running a minority o/s. running papasmurf doesnt make you more advanced -- it makes you a script kiddie
Im the exact opposite, I am concerned about linux becoming popular just because it brings more people like the above (script kiddies, 31337 h4x0r5) into the community (lowers the quality of the linux user gene pool so to speak).
The way I understand this, basically a computer sits on the line between point a and point b, then searches for keywords on communications between the two. In theory couldnt the world just invalidate the results by making all (non business related obviously) personal communication have the keywords in it? Like have your.sig say "Im going to bomb building X on date Y"? I realize that it would probably be virtually impossible to do, but its an interesting idea. Another idea (for the conspiracy theorist) would be that the govt's could use distributed computing (seti, distrib.net) through some kind of front (like seti or distrib.net) so we would be "chaining ourselves unknowingly" (for lack of better term), by giving the govts the data they want to monitor. We would never know since the clients are binary only, sure we could decompile it, but being the govts of the world they would be able to jail you or whatever before you were able to tell many people since they are monitoring all personal communications.
Just because we can mess up other planets/moons doesnt necessarily mean we should. Granted one satellite isnt going to affect anything (assuming it doesnt hit a martian king or something =), But we have already f'd up this planet enough as it is, do we really want to start screwing up possible future habitats before we even move in? Say we crash this satellite, then we say, Hey we already crashed one, a little more trash wont hurt anything right? But it does. The first time you do something is the hardest, every time after is cake. So we eventually make the moon a big galactic landfill, and then we say, Hey, lets crash something into mars. you get the point. This is all *very unlikely*, but it is very possible if we arent careful.
Im going to patent networking. if you have two computers connected or sharing data in any way (even sneakernet) you owe me money. send your checks to nlucent@mindspring.com
Granted spam is a pain in the ass at times (especially if you get a lot of it), but i would much rather hit 'd' and have it be gone w/o looking at it, then having someone send me a pound and a half of paper mail that goes straight from the mailbox to the trashcan, Im no "tree huggin' hippie", but we should at least attempt to be ecologically responsible.
Every time some kid kills somebody (be it his parents, his girlfriend, his classmates, whoever), and it makes it into the media, they always blame it on that kids recreational activities (music, movies, tv, internet, games(doom, dungeons and dragons)). Granted its very possible that there is some kid that has never thought about going and killing person/people. And its also possible that listening to some lyric, or watching some movie, playing some game, gives them that idea. But what the media never says is that something has to be fundamentally wrong to actually entertain the idea for more than a second. Nobody mentions the m(b)illions of people that watch/read/listen to/use all the same resources that this fucked up little kid does, but never have this problem.

Castration is the removal of the testicles, but testosterone is produced in the testicles, so by removing them, you are removing supply of testosterone, which is what I imagine plays a big part in the power and control aspect of rape.
I dont know if I got a "new" one or not, but it was kind of expensive, and it kinda sucks. the keys tend to stick after only having it for a few months. and it was like $60.

A. I read somewhere apple was charging manufacturers 1 or 2 dollars for each firewire port produced. (IRC)
B. I have yet to see it in any machines.
then install something like wingate or something similar on the winbox.
I've heard a lot of good things about it, so this is a pretty cool thing on their part
This shouldnt be a cool thing. This should be expected from a company that sells _open_source_ software.

Guess HP wont be using mylex cards in theyre netservers anymore. =)
Im starting to see hardware that has linux as a "works with" operating system.
Works With:
SCO
Windows NT
Windows 95
Windows 98
Linux
my linksys pci 10/100 NIC has it listed.

That still doesnt stop me from ripping a cd I bought (Because I liked the low quality I downloaded for free) and giving it to you.

It would be humorous if microsoft got slashdotted by all of us trying to read theyre anti linux propoganda saying that nt is a better web server.

The drive is probably full from all those
