Do you realise that there are stocks and there are stocks. Different stocks for differnt purpose. The owners have no right to demand dividend. But they can sell their stock if they don't like it.
Apple was there with same possibilities in the -80s
Now where were they during the -90s?
I call it the Dark ages of IT. As an Apple user there was no invention happening att all on the PC market side during the 90's. All we Apple users saw was PC users trying to catch up. Eventually they did. And now it's more head to head.
But development had stoped. There is still little news for computer users compared with the first mac 1994.
The UI has basically not changed at all. It has just been polished, but ther's been little real new invetions.
Which one, GUI? no they bought that one from Xerox, paid whith shares.
FireWire? From whom did they steal it? TrueType? It's not a Postscipt rip of so from whom? Font smothing in sub pixel pixels? 1976 by Wozniak, he stole it from whom. Good thing MS could not patent their versio fully due to Woz made it public back then.
Well would need to test it as I said in an other reply I'm not sure it worked could have been a coincidence back then when I was hacking the host file. ATM it's plane apple standard after I updated the OS.
But what I did back then was that I made a script that checked the domain names in my host file and added a line with their ip equivalent. And yes it seemd to work back then. Was probably on OSX 10.5.x Now running 10.6 and haven't changed the host file after that.
Well I'm not 100% sure it did, it was some years ago and could have been a coincidense that made it seem to work.
But the idea was to set 0.0.0.0 123.123.123.123 into host file or similar, haven't dealt with host files since then. My reason was to blok away crappy add servers that mainly utilized crappy coded crap flash. As I'm not that worried about malware running osx.
But then if it does not work for you, could there be different behaivours on different systems. I'm running OSX that should be identical to freeBSD in behaivour.
setting the ip number in the host file works also, I've done it. But yes this is not to block them from contacting me, but ad serves usually don't unless I've first sent an request.
No what I meant is that some sites, use ip addresses in their code to the ad servers.
What happens is that if you in the host file specified their domain name only, this will be bypassed if the link to the ad server is done by an direct ip number.
This happen to me when I surfed a news site, I checked the logs to a specific ad that caused problems. The domain name was displayed in Safari, though when added into host file it would not block it. Checking html code of that site revieled that the site had the ad server linked with IP number ala this style "href="//123.456.789.123/xxx/yyy/zzz"
But if I'm wrong about this, then in that case it must have been an cache issue of the host file.
And one more issue, some sites do not use the domain name in their links but rather use a direct ip address in those cases the domain name only wont help but you need also to include the ip address of the host you want to block.
I did this to my host file once made even a perl script if i'm not wrong to get the ip addresses of the hostnames.
Hey did check some of those host file providers out, but they use 127.0.0.1 why don't they use 0.0.0.0 which should result in being even faster, as 0.0.0.0 is invalid to my understanding but 127.0.0.1 is valid and will be tested.
Somhow my Mac fixes it for me nicely... Don't get much spam at all, being sencitive where i give my mail, or use 10 minute mail. But also the mail app in osx is pretty good after a few months training.
SUVs should not be banned due to pollution issues. SUVs should be banned for their flawed constuction.
Common an SUV is not meant for off-road driving. But the driving characteristics are as for an off-road car. But an SUV fails both on-road as off-road. So ban them totally.
Those who drive off-road get a proper vehicle for that. Those who drives on-road get a proper vehicle for that, the SUV is not proper for anything.
Even a ford focus mk2 the model I drive is generally to high for it's size. It's at least 10cm to high measured to the roof. And it's mid line is 5-10cm to high. Putting the chair in lowest position is actually a middle position.
No they don't have to be low as an ferrari or porsche, but a mid size Toyota from late 80s have the proportions quite right or as the Audi 80 from same period. They got good proportions when it comes to height width and length.
You could still use modern designs to make those proportions more spacious. But keep the weight point low. But this alone wont help, give them suspensions ala American style and you still make a well proportioned car dangerous to your self and others.
SUV's are a danger not only to the drivers but to all others around them. I would never in my life stay driving behind an SUV, I either pass them to be in front so I'm not expoeced to the danger of them tumbling around on the road, or I give enough space in front of me to be able to make a full stop until I reach the position of the SUV in front.
But a full stop is more dangerous than to be in front of the SUV. Still every SUV that you meet there is no way to put your self in safety from. Any second they can get the idea to tumble over onto the other drive line
Kill the wireless internet access while your having such a subject that they would not need access to the internet. This could be done by having seperate base stations in each classroom and only give access to proxy and DNS servers for specific base stations. Thus creating classrooms that are only intranet capable and others internet capable.
Then you would get rid of the facebookers. Otherwise I think computers or tablets or computers should be the tool instead of blocks of paper and books here and there.
When I was in school I dreamed of an Apple Newton as my study-mate. As it was capable of handwriting recognitions, but anyway did not force that you could just write and store as image too. But Neither the world and even less the schools of that time was ready for the Apple Newton, only I understood where it's biggest usability lied but could not afford it.:(

Well don't say that, Big Bang seems to be generatin more doubters nowadays among scientists.
So show me the multiple non biased independent data.
Whit this I'm not saying Big bang did not happen, I'm just saying we dont really know and it's the theory most people icluding scientists accept.
As there is data that speaks for a big bang there is data that brings doubt of the same.
ur missing the point totally, cant see the trees for the forest? or cant see the forest because of all trees?

Any other invetions you think of?
it's far from worthless it's very efficient, but it's not fool prof.
Ok, been testing now and I'm not able to replicate it );
So the results I had 1-2 years ago must have been coincidental and not actual results of the host file i had produced.
I'm not able to get the host file to redirect an direct ip address :(
An other trouble ran on while testing was aliases
0.0.0.0 example.com
will not block www.example.com any one line solution that does not require adding each alias?

Well ur message style is very trollish

Well yeah, but seems to be a very well documented troll. Which is still valuable.
nice, you have time for women... !?

If this wouldn't have been informative I'd hostfiled that message id.
Well nice work even if you over did it. Copy paste spamming forum threads?
military time, americans are so funny, what is so military about 24h clocks, the whole world except the english speaking world uses 24h time.
I guess any non American would qualify for US army, they can handle a clock... :p

what should be isn't always realistic.
Or do you think peace in the middle east today should not be a reality?
But what ever you think about that subject, it's still not realistic.
lol
