Well, its not that difficult, since alot of us have vanity domains, just pull the dns records for said domain, and you pretty much have all the ips, then add a whois lookup and you could be on my doorstep.
But I warn you, before showing up on my doorstep, beware of my killer tabby cat:)
Maybe, maybe not, but I am willing to bet that alot of us have been wronged by MS in one way or another, I cannot tell you how many times there inferior software has caused me pain nd suffering. I did Tech Support for many years, and I know how there crap works very well. I have to admit, there are some products MS owns (but did not write, they liked it, they bought it), that are great (Moto cross madness comes to mind:)
Its there buisness practices that suck, if they cannot corner a market, they buy the software company that wrote it, or they force them out of buisness.
Odds are, once the info is made available from NSI, the other registrars, that can sign up domains are going to start spamming saying something like "Wouldn't you rather reregister with us for a significant discount and blah blah blah".
This is totally unacceptable, and If I ever get one at the tech contact for my domain, I will personally go after whomever did the spamming. And I will gladly type "shut" on there interface.
I personally don't care whether it is open or not.
I spend day in and day out going after spammers (its part of my job). If this makes it easier for spammers to harvest email addresses, there will be a problem.
Maybe I should trip over the power cable that supplies power to the router the NSI is on:)
Excuse me??? Not all Americans are immature and ignorant, and unlike you I am man enough to post as a user, not an anonymous coward. Whether or not I believed the story of not is irrelevant, it was funny, and seems to follow of trend of stupid things the french have done lately. Jason
Well guess what, I pay for my software, and I paid for windows, and I paid for all the games, cos thats all its worth. A game machine. I use linux because its a hell of alot more stable then microsoft products. When a problem is found its fixed in little to no time. And its fast, I don't have to worry about something crashing on me all the time which windows and all other MS products do.
After looking at the site in question, a slashdot effect would not help any, as the person who sent the spam is trying to get people to click on the links. For every link that you (everyone in general) click, he gets a small amount of cash through "click through" type services. There is no easy way to deal with these types of idiots. Unless the owners of/. are willing to sue, the idiot can go on using the slashdot.org domain forgeries in the headers. (atleast until certain laws become official, however long that will take).
That is where you are wrong. The mp3 format is extremely usefull. I have about 3 gigs of Mp3's, all legal, none of them downloaded. I turned half of my CD collection into mp3's for a couple of reasons. I don't have to swap CD's all the time, I can select a random mix, and most of all, I can stream them to work and listen to them here without dragging 50 CD's around all the time. I'm not likely to buy mp3's, as I would just as well buy the CD to support the artists, but the mp3 format is here to stay, no matter what anyone tries to do with it
Faking satellite photos, faking dead bodies, faking pictures of muslims in refugee camps, and doctoring photos to make Clinton taller than anyone else in the picture; Bombing many many civilian vehicles, and then telling the people "oops"; eradicating civilian journalists (Serb and Chinese) who broadcast pictures of the destruction out of the country.
wtf!!! are you smoking crack??? (just in case your an ignorant native, thats a drug) Apoligies to anyone other then this fool that I may have insulted by the native comment. Who ever you are, your an ignorant asshole who knows absolutely shit about the world around you. I may not like the war, hell I pay just over a third of my salery in taxes to fund this damn war. But I don't go around spouting shit like this. Speak only about the facts, not what you imagine in your dreams
Your comment alone is is no better then the propaganda that is being spread by everyone else. This is a war, there will be civilian casualties, regardless of the reason for this war which whether I agree with or not is not the issue) You have absolutely no proof what so ever that NATO, cnn or the BBC has lied, just like I have no gaurenteed proof that www.serbia-info.com has not lied. Information is only as good as the sources that provide it, and if those sources are goverernment run, they are generally propaganda based. I'm more likely to believe cnn or the bbc because they are free to publish whatever they want, rather then being forced to publish "place whatever topic here".
My company also rented a theatre, however with the rules in place, we still have about 400+ people from the company goin, but 2 weeks after opening, already have 4 tix booked:) jvanbrec@uu.net for now, my other email addy is toast
mp3 player based on advantech sbc, with software
on
Mini Board PC

There is already a site that has what you need. goto http://www.kinetic.org/cd3.html The mp3 player is based on the advantech board, however the site also has the software you need freely available, including a custom version of redhat ( I will attempt to create a custom debian, not a redhat fan), the touch screen drivers for linux, and the sound drivers for the ess sound card builtin to the advantech board. No schematics though, but it does tell you all the hardware you need.
I dunno how good it will be, but if (and thats a big if) there is an Office release, sure I'll try it. I hate MS just as much as the next person, but I'm not close minded about the fact that it might actually be better then the windows varients (heh, thats more like a story then reality).
But the first thing I will do is setup a couple of rules blocking all traffic to and from any IP block that MS owns, you never know what little bits of info MS will be sending to themselves.
Call me paranoid, or a conspiricy theorist, but up untill the MS trial, no one ever said a thing about linux (except on very rare instances or special events). Now suddenly every publication (including ones MS owns or has there hooks in) is praising linux as the next revolution (okay, so I'm exagerating, but you get the point).
I'm telling you, this is all a ploy by MS to make them look like there is compotition.
