Five meg sounds like a pretty good limit to me. In fact it may be a little high. There are still many people on dialup to whom 5 meg is a 35 or so minute download.
My own personal opinion is that if a message is over one meg I put it up on an web site and place the url in the message. If its over 100 megs then I'll choose some format that is easily resumable (DCC, FTP, etc.) .
If people get in the habit of sending massive emails you will start to get mysterious complaints about mail getting rejected. After finally getting your users to give you the returned mail message you'll discover that not all mail servers even accept large mail. Some will reject it as being too big.
I don't know if they have any for European Appliance to use US style electricity though. All of the ones that I have seen are for using US Appliances in Europe.
Mod this Parent down. This guy spams _every_ article
with somthing about his Javascript AI.
Check out http://slashdot.org/~Mentifex/
and look at some of his previous posts.
1.) Buy Audrey
2.) Open browser on audrey and point it to cgi-script on a box on network
3.) Make Browser full screen
4.) Have cgi script display an image, wait a few seconds and reload.
Let me get this, you're going to request a file
and then download it slowly, using very little
bandwidth. The only way I see this hurting is
if users only allow x number of transfers. As
far as bandwidth, it wouldn't hurt much at all
and by using up a slot and not using much
bandwith it could speed up other transfers.
You can save resources by converting all documents to several formats, ps, pdf, html, txt beforehand.
Or you can save lots of work and space by keeping everything in one format (ps) and using scripts to convert on the fly. I'm not sure if there is a ps2pdf but I assume that their is.
You can use apt-cache search keyword to search from the commandline.
A lot of times I end up with a:
apt-cache search someword | grep -i someotherword
to find my app, then a simple
apt-get install appname and I'm all done.
That has got to be the most ignorant coment I have ever seen in my life.
How can you even compare sitting in front of a desk to working on the ocean or on an oil derrick ?
Severe cold, frostbite, explosions, isolation vs. eye strain !?! They don't even comapre.
I'm getting a little annoyed at all these 3l33t 15 year olds using daddy's DSL and spouting about how dialup's are ancient and are holding everything back.
Dialup is the only choice in many areas. At my home for instance, I cannot get DSL, cable, or even ISDN.
I've been trained on the SINCGARS model radio in the Army. It can jump between 100 frequencies per second and you can supposedly still make out what is being said , even if 30% of the hopset is being jammed.
Using MFC is not creating a derivative product. You are linking against a library that MS provided for you. You have no access to the source at all and I'm not sure but I doubt that MS would let you get away with selling copies of the MFC libraries.
Direct quote from the faq: Some open source licenses are viral, that is, they require that all
derivative works be licensed on the same terms as the original
program. These licenses are described as viral because they "infect"
derivative programs.
So I guess if you simply disallow derivative works, your license is not "viral" ? Seems kind of like whining to me, "Some open source licenses are protective of the developer's rights. That is they prevent MegaCorp Inc. from using the software without giving back to the community."
Anyway, when was the last time a derivative of an MS product was made and licensed by someone besides MS ?
I don't think it's done by passing button presses. If so , how do you keep the games in sync ? Any little lag would screw it up and you wouldn't be able to "speed up" or "slow down" to get back in sync if you were merely passing button presses.
Not to mention that would mean a seperate instance of the game runnning on each client. That would only work if the games did not use a pseudo-random number to position enemies or "good guys".

How does "voice to text" relate to "text to voice" ?
Look at the older article, it's a completely different question.

Wow that's incredibly....fake
What does the coefficient of friction have to do with anything reguarding tension on a cable.
Also the only mention of "torque inhibitor" on google is about a device that is meant to break in order to prevent damage to another object.
Have you tried adding security.debian.org to your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
Usually for me it's a case of "Dang, some flaw in was found"
apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade
And a few minutes later that package is being replaced with a non vulnerable one. The security fixes are very quick for Debian.
I also run stable on a machine at work. It's beein running stable for about 2 years or so now and I've never had a major showstopping bug with it.
Kind of dilapidated and run down ? Maybe I just saw the bad parts of Fort Knox though...
Wow, I hope that was sarcasm that I somehow missed

Someone mod the parent down. Bringing up AI in EVERY article pretty much constitutes trolling in my book.
I would assume that any connection requires more
than one sent packet to initiate a transfer.
A -> B Hey send me
B -> A Ok here you go
A -> B Thanks
If the ip A is spoofed, then the actual computer
A that B sends a packet to, is not expecting that packet and ignores it.

It's FTC not FCC
How about, "Our great country has survived 225 years without a cure for cancer ?"
or "Our great country has survived 225 years without world peace ?"
Your arugment just doesn't seem balid.

Mutt doesn't support PGP huh ?

So what happens when someone writes the source to DeCSS or "slanders" a Scientoligist...
An obvious troll, but what the heck...

The fuss is about providing a service with one of your Nat'd boxes. How are you going to assign a domain name to a non-routable IP address ?
