if this is the coral that I'm thinking of (coral distrubution network or some such garbage) then it's basically a poor mans akamia. They're not goign to be/.'ed any time soon.
There is of course the other issue that coral is essentially using the bandwidth of its participants (lots of universities and whatnot). That bandwidth is paid for by state taxes and student tuition, all that good stuff, and should most definately not be going to fund a commercial enterprise like slashdot.

I tried to send an email to that address to ask if she would post her side of the story on her site somewhere and had it bounce back. Now I don't know how nsi deals with this sort of thing, but in the past, i've had registrars breath fire down my neck b/c I had old, outdated information in my whois records.
I'm currently submitting a service request with nsi but I'm not sure if this is the right channel to for this. Anyone else have any other contact information for submitting bogus whois information to nsi?
personally identfifiable information. T here were quite a few documents which listed ssn's and the like. I believe sb1386 only applies to companies which do business in california, but I wonder if it could be interpreted in such a way as to include the military.
Simply cut off any computer that is sending packets trying to exploit a hole, like Blaster or whatever. Hell, commercial ISPs don't even do this unless it's really really bad, let alone require such software to be installed.
you've obviously spent no time doing this. the ammount of time required to clean/reactivate these jacks is ridiculous. good thing university budgets are getting larger and larger every year so we can afford to throw more man hours at it. oh wait, that's right, they're shrinking not growing.
so, with an increasing problem and a decreasing budget and mounting evidence and reactive solutions do *nothing*, what can be done? proactive solutions are the only things that will be getting my support these days. I've wasted too many hours reinstating network jacks (for the second and third and fourth time, they don't learn) to look at anything else.
I would have no problem with requiring users to install the latest security patches or virus software and keep definitions up to date
pray tell how would you do this? make the computer part of a domain and give yourself the ability to push patches out? simply have students email you every time they install a new patch?
but no campus network service is gonna be installing stuff on my computer.
believe you me, the day is not far away when you won't be allowed on the network if you refuse to install certain software. use of the network is a privelege, not a right. as you said, you could always go down to the labs if you need to view a course webpage. Those computer, we know are safe.
I asked a cop about this (who was in process of pulling me over b/c my plate would sometimes hide itself, who knew?). You're not going to find, "splitting lanes" or "lane splitting" anywhere in the ca. vehicle code. It's considered sharing a lane, and there are no defined rules. You could get a ticket for going 5 mph faster than surroudning traffic if the cop felt you were being unsafe.
but, if you can find something, i'd be more than happy to eat my words. This was just what the cop told me when I asked him directly if splitting was legal.
when you're on a university network however, and you deal with hundreds of users on non-filtered segments (ie, acl's are great at the perimeter and backbone routers, but they aren't possible on the peripheral switches) then you read an advisory like this and reach for your anal lube b/c you just know you're about to be fucked.
has he used evolution? it's integration with everything I throw at it is incredible to the point of almost being beyond belief. of his 5 mil that he's got earmarked for this new company, he could probably spend a fraction of that and get evoluition to the point where it could blow any client out of the water hands down.
hell, he could spend that money to to fund 20 develpopers for 5 years to write a linux compatibilty layer for windoww (think wine, but Line) that would run non-native (linux) evolution faster than that pos that wants to virus me more than a bitter ex-girlfriend.
anyway, them's just my thoughts and you could be full of it, as my pappy always used to say.
actually, a "party music" album with original ablum cover would be all but impossible to come by as well as the original album cover was to look like this (ironically to be printed on sept. 11th, it eventually became this [note burning manhatten, basically the same thing, just a bit more subtle and this time, much more direct]).
if i'm not mistaken, the that's that's parsed is as such:
y = 1 / (2 * pi); since y is an int, and 1 / (2 * pi) is obviously less than 1, y = 0; try putting parens around the 1/2 and see what you get.

239 MPG Car

that this was a concept car. It was designed to get 100 mpg, and transport one person from point to point b. This is not the car that will be released to joe public when this technology finally makes it out of the concept phase.
to quote another section of the article.
Viewed as a vehicle concept - with four wheels, but very low-slung and with two seats in tandem - the 'one-liter' car is perhaps an indication of a totally new family of cars.
It's part of new familly of cars. It's designed to show off the tech, not the final desgin of the car.
24 of those little film cells run past the light projector every second. However, if you could count the flashes of light on the screen, you would see 48. This is because, for every cell, an inverted fan with two non-blades (*), allows the light to pass through the lens twice. hence, each cell is flashed on the screen twice and the effective fps is 48.
I was a projectionist here in santa cruz for a while about 5 years ago. Fun job, basically just paid to smoke and start a few movies every few hours. Plus I got to toy with the sound in the theatres. I used to crank it up for the mib closing track.
(*) picture a fan with two blades. Now picture a metal ring connecting the outside of the fan blades. Now invert the fan-blade, no-fan-blade spots (ie, there are two holes which are smaller than the spots that don't all the light to pass through), and you've probably got a picture of this thing in your head.

have any of you ever done 200 mph on a bike? The fastest I've ever gone was upwards of 130 on a friends gsxr750 (hwy 1 doesn't have a long enough straight away in the 10 miles north of santa cruz so I couldn't get it going any faster), and let me tell you that it's no picnic. It's kinda hard to imagine exactly how fast that is. I mean we've all gone faster than that in airplanes, but when you're on the ground, and you realize that a squirrel running in front of you will turn you in to a meat torpedo. It's pretty fucking scary.
