What I was questioning was shutting down your employer's servers. If you think THAT is an act of civil disobedience then perhaps I'm clapping with one hand here. There is a difference between criminal and civil abuses.
Does the concept of civil disobedience mean anything to you?
Yes it does.
You obviosly don't know what it means yourself however. Taking out your petty grievances on your employers property is a criminal act. Even if you try to shroud it in your own mind as something else.
I'm very sorry if you are so abused by the system you live in that you feel you have to act out in such an infantile way. But, civil disobediance is normally reserved for people with a cause, and a clue. .
To make a point and use the words seen before I like to think that the revolutionary thing about Internet distribution of music isn't that there are new institutions to replace the old. It is that there are no cartels nor power brokers at all, so that each band can reach out to its audience on an equal footing, without spending much money, and without signing rights away to anyone.
As has been pointed out, it verges on the trivial nowadays for a band to set up its own website and marketing machinery, and if they don't have the tech ability or desire to do it then there are countless others that will be glad to help for a very small fee.
It's just a matter of time before the revolution really takes place.
Sorry I can't see the screenshots, but from what you fine folks is saying they does sound nice.
I'm not one of them serious gamers, but I have been known to shot down a few tanks on my Atari playing Combat. It's the only game I have for my 'tari, but it does me juss fine.

Something else to make me nauseous while surfing. :o)
Agreed.

This may be slightly offtopic to ICANN itself, but relevent to the DNS issue.
I for one think that is is past time for NSI to lose their database and adopt the RIPE whois database format.
I'm sure many here would agree.
So all sysadmins should shut down the servers? Whose servers? Their employer's servers? Does the concept of property ownership mean anything to you?
It's a Celeron 433 with 128 meg...
Never heard of that. Sounds nice tough.
Mine sounds similar XT 4.77Mhz 128 MB (Hard Drive that is). Just got the HDD, did me an upgrade.
Spins like a wirlwind it does.
Don't BeSilly
The chicks dig it.
At least I think they do, I know that the stare at me a lot.
The BBC Microcomputer...
.
Up here in Canada we've got something similar.
The CBC Massesconfuser
It too is big and bulky and expensive to run. It's really quite bass ackwards.
But that there's the way we like it.
...compare to the ColecoVision?

Old copy of Windows 3.1?
Slow down big boy! I'm still using dosshell. It'l be a while before I get enough of that there RAM to run that kinda stuff.
...but doing so much in software is very exciting. It makes it much easier to design and upgrade coprocessors like math and 3d accelerators...
I can live with coprocessors, as long as it doesn't get too outa hand. I highly recommend the 80387. Now that there is one kick butt FPU buddy.
I'd love to look at NT. But my Timex Sinclair won't run the darn thing.
Your car has pedals?!?
Mine has reins, and that's the way I like it.
Giddie-up!
