I don't trust anyone to remotely access my PC. So I won't participate in any remote-admin program, and I've deleted all remote-admin software that my IT dept. has put on my PC. Frequent, intrusive "Y2K fixes" turned me off permanently from this.
Doesn't use the SSH name at all, easy to remember, says it's secure ("Not a Secure Shell" != very confidence building), plus it has that fun GNU style. And you'll always know what to serve at release parties.
This thread (not surprisingly) has A LOT of AC postings, some several steps down. If you have mod points, please check out the many very interesting postings at level zero. Lots of readers who normally read at 2 will miss good stuff otherwise.
Well, you'd need a lot more fuel to get the thing back to Earth orbit. Presumably a shuttle could go up and get it... but I am guessing that the need to carry the return-trip fuel out there would make the thing a heck of a lot more expensive (because you'd also need more fuel to carry that additional fuel).
I looked at the main site and the utterly appalling companion site but couldn't find out where this installation is. I live in SF and would like to see this. Does anyone have a street address??
I hope they do a careful study of the stability of these crystals before letting people too close to them. Obviously the guy who was killed did something stupid, but it could happen again...
Really, only Slashdot could get over 200 comments in response to this totally silly and arcane question. It's space! It's video! It's a loophole in the DVD region-code rules! And it's yet another threat to Your Rights Online! I must say I'm impressed and amused.
(I'll bet you didn't know, for example, that 90 percent of Gamecenter was still produced as flat
HTML--using tools and techniques that have been around since the Web was born.)
Well, in my view, that's reason to keep it and trash the other one!
Don't forget, the embassy-bombing trial started today. Might be relevant? FBI PR folks whispering in reporters' ears on days they know Osama et al. are on their minds?
One of the main reasons I have used Mac for years is that its Japanese support kicks butt. I used to be a freelance Japanese translator and could not have done it without my crashing all the time, slow, expensive - but multilingual - Mac.
Mac OS 9 supports Arabic and Hebrew very simply. I don't read or write either (I wish!) but my Arabic-speaking sister and Hebrew-speaking mom both tell me that it works fine. From Apple's web site:
Multilingual support. Mac OS is world-ready. Input, display, edit and print a variety of Latin-based languages in addition to Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Indian, Japanese and more.
Of course, using Apple doesn't exactly free you from MS documentation...

Well, the Cult of the Dead Cow makes something called Back Orifice that I hear works pretty well... you'd never know it's there!

Terrible, Rotten, Annoying SHell...

Mod up! This is interesting. A real story!
That is so sweet! See, Slashdot is good for something...
I for one am buying my sweetie flowers!

Sure! At least /. doesn't have a Sex section like Plastic...
But it would rock if they could do it.

of course it's /.ed...
I read one Slashdot article about viruses (this one), and am responding to it. Cost: two minutes.
'Nuff said.

Try Plastic instead. You'll be glad to know that Shoeboy is already active on the site!

Now what was the article about again? I forgot...
Hey, if you don't like ad-supported websites, don't visit them! Sheesh.
slashdot knows it sucks, so it doesn't bother to sue!
this has what exactly to do with our rights online? it's just an IP assignment policy.

Well, these days even being a loyal MS customer will free you from MS documentation. Yes, I meant "domination"...
