I don't know if this would work. I guess it would really give you less variation in possible passphrases than a normal password.
Maybe if you were to 'draw' the password on the screen and the computer would both use the password and analyze the writing it could give you an extra level of security. That would probably work better with a stylus or a touch screen than with a mouse, though.
As for hoping for people to try to type in passwords instead of using the mouse, that is only security by obscurity. Don't trust that.
Paul Di Filippo. -- For instance The Steampunk Trilogy. Great SF set in the Victorian era.
Kim Stanley Robinson -- Somehow writes hard SF and social SF at the same time. You can't miss the Red Mars series, a mastodontic saga about the terraforming of Mars.
It isn't to late to see _The Fellowship of the Ring_ on a big screen. It will be in the cinemas until the _The Return of the King_ goes up.
As the movie is expicitly aimed to people who have read the book, I think you can be assured that your experience of the film will be enhanced by having read the book beforehand.
I'm reading through _The Two Towers_ right now, in time for the premiere, but for me it's about the twelwth time.
And unless you know exactly what you're doing (which new users don't), you're stuck staring at a monitor refreshing at 60 Hz - welcome to headache heaven!
This wouldn't be much of a problem if the system comes preinstalled.

I heartily recommend the book Einstein for Beginners by Schwartz and McGuinness for anyone interested in a short biography of Einstein.
It is an illustrated biography in the same spirit as the classic Lenin for Beginners and Introducing Kafka (possibly the best Kafka biography ever).
I would guess there was a not insignificant number of people who watched the first film only because of Ian McKellen. I guess the company wouldn't want them to think he was out of the game for the next two films.
Sir Ian is according to me and a lot of other Shakespeare lovers the best actor ever to portray any of his characters on screen. As a great fan also of Tolkien, I was to totally begeistered by seeing him as Gandalf, and his performance (especially when together with Ian Holm) really brought the film to life for me.
Apart from that, it will probably be given away by the credits on the poster anyway.
PS. If you liked Ian McKellens performance as Gandalf, you mustn't miss him in Richard III
PPS. If you liked Cate Blanchetts performance as Galadriel, don't miss Tom Tykwer's new film Heaven with her in the lead role.
Why is the article posting the FULL names including street adresses of the fugitives (and that is what they are at this point, i guess)? This would be highly illegal in most of the rest of the world (it for sure is here in.de)
It isn't illegal in most contries, and probably not in Germany either. You can get that kind of information by checking in with the court anyway. This is mostly regulated by something called press ethics.

Is anyone else finding the choice of name for the evil lord disturbing?

Some other names to look out for is Ken MacLeod and Alastair Reynolds.
I've been using on for making music. If you want to, you can check it out at my home page.
Douglas Adams wasn't the first SF writer to discuss this. I could come up with a bunch of examples of "prior art", but I won't bother.
The only way I can think of is to have someone sign it with their OpenPGP key.
Besides, using AM for midnight is a universally accepted standard.
LOL

Heh, obviously you can't say Björk.
These places has been explored in some pop-cultural works.
Why don't you check out Down Street Station (slightly redecorated) in NeverWhere
or Die Another Day?
Isn't it smarter to just create som restrictions on content for the domain, then have people let their firewalls etc. take care of filtering?

You don't have to 'claim' the copyright to have it. Just release it anonymously and make sure you have some kind of proof that you are the creator.
Here in Sweden, one would do that by mailing a sealed envelope with the complete work to oneself.
Putting in a copyright notice with a pseudonym might make it easier for people modifying the source to put in appropriate credits.
Also, "anka" means "duck in swedish.

I used Minix to get some kind of UN*X up on a friends Atari STE in 2000 or so. It made a cool looking terminal.
Sorry to say, the space button fucked up, and the machine was broken in the attempts to fix it.
If you read the post you can see that he is mainly talking about virtual servers.
It would be simple to modify the driver to not count that particular process. (Provided source is provided.)
Heh, actually Ogg is named after a character from a fantasy novel. But it's from Pratchett, not Tolkien.
Debian has a utility called stow, that does this. (Good for the lazy.)
Nowadays, if you install the ash Debian package, it asks you if you want to use it for /bin/sh.
If DirectFB catches on, I'm sure someone will make an X server for it, so you can still use run remote X clients in it.
That is because in that case, the developers haven't had the chance to even look at Microsofts implenentation.
In the case of Linux, it might be tempting to use what is already there, instead of reverse engineering.
