Do they even make an antivirus that can run on a mac?
Nope. In fact, Apple as actually sued any company that's released an anti-virus app for the Mac, on the grounds that it's defamation of character or some such.
Had the same thing happen when someone emailed all (used some global group list that only a few folks are supposed to have access to) about giving away some puppies.
When I got ready to go into the Air Force, I was delayed for 6 months for being under weight (6'/114 lbs). Yeah, Old Weird Harold/Stick Man/etc. I heard them all. For that 6 months prior to Basic, I was eating like a horse; 1 qt of protein shake with raw eggs in the morning, several burritos from Wendy's endless salad bar for lunch, and a couple large pizza's in the evening. I did not do any sports and pretty much liked to sit around reading or messing around on my computer (TI99/4a). By the end of 6 months, had gained 4 pounds and was still 2 pounds under weight. They gave me a waiver.
Ended up as a tanker crew chief, doing hard work for first time in life. Started to put on muscle weight. Helped to have 24 hour SAC chow how next to my dorm. Was eating there 4-5 times a day. After two years, was up to 127 lbs.
Life was pretty good, going out drinking one or two pitchers of Guinness a night until I was 27. All of a sudden, my body changed and the weight came on. I'm now eating a lean protein/veggie/fruit diet and exercising several times a week and it's all I can do to maintain weight, without gaining. Wonder if my gut bugs changed or something? Never had stomach flu before this and now, seems I get one at least once a year.
Right, but most of these shambling eco-systems only considered base human cells. This is article is expanding that concept to include all the additional flora and fauna living in/on us.
Is similar to only focusing on a stand of aspens while ignoring all the other life intertwined with it.
When you get right down to it, life is a big dance. Or we're all just was stars have found to look back at themselves.
Actually, it's borrowed on by the U.S. gov't with some token amount of interest on the loan (some kind of bond arrangement). Now, if the gov't was to default on these bonds that it owes to itself, yeah, that would be kinda' bad.
I've seen a few cartoon collection DVD's that I have to go in and select individual tracks to rip, rather than try and rip the entire DVD. If these DVD's are like some college course ones I supported about 10 years ago (Linux server with a bunch of CD drives hanging off of it), the menu system is a bit more complex than a standard movie DVD. Unfortunately, might take some time with one of them to find the correct tracks to rip and such.
Just for beer and skittles, I loaded Red Hat Enterprise 5 on VMWare, on my Mac and then Handbrake and VLC on Linux. Was able to burn a DVD. It ripped ok, but was just a few frames/sec slower than ripping same DVD via Handbrake on Mac side of things. Cool!
Latest version of Handbrake (.0.9.3) has all the options but it also has a decent selection of presets. So far, haven't had any real problems with it, with almost 400 DVD's ripped. Only that Neemo movie was a little tricky. Had to pick the correct track to rip, to get audio to sync.
I've ripped my DVD's to MP4 format for use on my home media server (and AppleTV). I can stream these over 802.11n to machines around the house. Also, MP4's take up less room than DVD iso's. Approaching 400 movies now.
Really need to come up with a decent storage/backup solution for 2TB of data files (only using 800 MB currently but if laying out cash, gotta' plan for future growth).
Handbrake is a decent ripper. Has both CLI and GUI controls, can be scripted, etc. Has lots of presets for whatever use you want from your DVD's (PSP, web, Apple TV, iPod, HD-TV, etc.).
Actually, I dropped out of art school in '93. Turned out that, while I had no great design skills, I was great at fixing Macs in the computer lab. And at the print shops where student were always bringing in effed up layouts with missing font files. Next thing I knew, people were calling me, offering booze and money to get the shiny out of the machine or show them out to make Photoshop or Illustrator do what they wanted. Now, still with no degree, I'm a senior Macintosh analyst at a national lab that my crack the practical fusion problem. Yeah me!

Maybe glue a piece of leather to bottom of foot, with separate pieces on each toe, allowing spread of toes to help with shock absorption?
But would they do it with a Sean Connery accent?
Evil Mr. Yellowface, it burns!

Free puppies killed our email.
And turn them in to a coffee cup...
Ah, an investment banker. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Time to start mugging skinny peoples for their gut bugs?
Would one have to totally wipe out current fat gut bugs before introducing thin gut bugs? Would there be a war?

I think my life has been determined by garden genomes.
Is that where we could find Tiamat?

Dartmouth is the Ivy League funny.
Yup, same thing happened with me. Out at handbrake site, found out which track was the good one to get.
I've only used Handbrake for DVD to MP4. Never tried to convert another format/container.

Division asks how many of the second number it takes to equal the first number.
I've never thought about division this way. That actually makes sense!
Cool!
