okay... that last post had my mind goind way down the wrong path... "Cisco examined the routers in depth, and didn't find any trojans, only a few durex wrappers"
And why's this so much news? Any self-respecting revolutionary knows that you have a distributed network, so that even if a cell goes down, you can still pass messages.
Hell... I wish IRC could learn from this, I've had enough of netsplits. By rights only the server that goes offline should be affected if it goes down, it shouldn't split the network into 2 massive sections.
Yeah the image looks nice, and is all "ooohhhh ahhhh" and lends itself to "Hey... that's me", but really "News"? I think not
Call me when they have an article as to how they got this information
A guy is sitting in the front row of a "town meeting" in an overwhelming republican town, when the R presidential candidate comes to speak.
the candidate asks "So who here is a republican?" everybody else raises their hands, so he asks the gentleman in the front "So why aren't you a republican?" "Well, my father was a democrat, his father was a democrat, as so was his father before him, so I'm a democrat." "Well, what if your father, and his father has been idiots?" "Then I guess I'd be a republican"
It's an interesting idea... but here's the thing I can't see the ISPs letting something like this happening.
Also, what's to prevent somebody from stealing one of the boxes, and causing an outage... or modifying the firmware on one of these boxes to sniff for passwords?
Yeah, I know... Bad form replying to self, but hey...
Amendment VII
In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise reexamined in any court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law. so I guess that means that the supreme court has decided that 6 months in jail is worth $20.00 but 5.9 months is only worth $19.99
Keep in mind that it has been decided by the Supreme Court that you're only entitled to a jury trial if you're charged with something that carries at least a six-month prison term. Oh, and that has to be within a single charge - they've already ruled that if you face 100 counts of a 1-month sentence that you don't get a jury trial. I wonder where they got that idea... Amendment VI
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.
office machine is windows... as the Parent suggested... for a quick fix, nano is superb, some machines have vi, some have emacs... it's all about what is there, and what isn't
Don't forget that because of our effort to become a "carbon-neutral" company, we are making a monthly investment in renewable energy, and are passing a small fraction of the cost on to you. You will see that as a $15 Carbon-Neutral charge on your monthl bill
On the average day, our spam filter discards between 1 and 1.5 kilomessages, and allows ~.5 kilomessages through
On the webmaster account, I get maybe 3 spam messages a day which filtered through the spam filter, and those are almost always tagged as "Probably Spam"
our solution: spamassassin, keep the rules up to date, and we've tweaked a few scores very slightly.
If this works, I'd like to know, how, and get a nice detailed report on it.
I live in rural northern Maine, and I'm lucky to have DSL... There are many many people who are in the same boat as rural vermont, getting 14.4 on a good day.
I would love to see the same type of arrangement expanded

NoNoNo... you forgot the "religion" aspect.
Which candidate should be praying to which diety for good traffic for the moving van to the White House

-1 "Cynical Bastard"
I read the complaint, and some of the other documents listed on the EFF site, and damn...
"Go big or go home"
They asked for the FBI to be injoined from serving any more NSLs
Time to use the mail-box, and talk to my reps to get this abomination removed from law.
I just can't help but wonder about sanctions against the FBI official who signed this NSL
wait... starcraft needed a no-cd patch?
/mnt/cdrom
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=~/cds/StarCraft.iso
then whenever i wanted to play
mount -t auto ~/cds/StarCraft.iso
wine starcraft.exe
works like a charm... and I don't have to wait for it to keep spinning up on me
go ahead, mod me funny, but I'm dead serious
"schadenfreude" is a german term that translates roughly as "Taking joy in doing damage" or "pleasure from misfortune"
honestly though... I'm a big fan of "//Magic happens here"
You mean like the old joke:

I'd be interested to see their reasoning
office machine is windows... as the Parent suggested... for a quick fix, nano is superb, some machines have vi, some have emacs... it's all about what is there, and what isn't
each one has advantages, and disadvantages
I have converted my company... It's a pain though... I wish I could figure out how to make an installer with it pre-installed for all users
Hand coded gets you smaller pages, they load faster, and generally look better
I do feel vindicated though... I hand-code everything...
nano, notepad++, emacs... vi, I use them all
the big thing is that static pages are slowly going away.
it seems these days almost everything has some sort of DB connection for data
on my webservers i've got mod-gzip active, I haven't checked to see how much it's being used, but you've made me interested
I find it slightly interesting that we have the "Great Firewall of China" and a "Iron Curtain Of Russia"
why not call 'em like we see 'em? This is censorship, pure and simple. by putting a "pretty" name on it, we take away some of the effect.

verizon won't shit their pants... they just sold of their land-line, and ISP operations to FairPoint in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont.
I call bullshit....
/dev/sound was only accessabile to the sound group (or obviously root)
running linux 8 years ago... all you had to do was add your user to the "sound" group, and then it "just worked" if it worked as root
the issue was that
Screw that... I followed the instructions at http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/credit/prescreen.shtm
and I get practically 0 junk mail... One place to call/visit, as opposed to haveing to call capital one... amex... etc. etc.
Believe it or not... kid pix is still around... and still only for mac
Hrmmm... I never got the TOS/AUP for my ISP (then again it was just switched on me when Verizon sold it)
gotta contact them, and say "Hey, what's the deal"
Pst... PlaneShift... 'nuf said
