Network security devices that don't support IPv6 don't scan IPv6. How anyone is going to turn on IPv6 on such a device is anyone's guess. This is just pure FUD. Verisign is probably worried that their systems won't cope with a sudden onslaught of IPv6 traffic, so is trying to discourage everyone from switching at once.
And bottom line, the squeeling, crying and whining about MS interoperability never struck a cord at all with me. SAMBA came about because open source and its structures offered nothing that came close.
When SAMBA came about, smb was a poor copy of NFS. SAMBA came about because pointy-haired bosses started bypassing the Unix wizards and building Windows for Workgroups based networks in the office and insisting that all the important stuff be stored there because getting a decent TCP/IP stack running on their PCs was too much expense and hassle. Active Directory came much later, when Microsoft decided to patch up the deficiencies in smb in Windows 2000 so it could move beyond the small-medium size offices and into the enterprise. Up until that point, SAMBA was a good, up to date implementation.
How strong strong passwords are doesn't really matter. Enough people on linkedin will have weak passwords that spammers will be queuing up to get their hands on a new "trusted" delivery mechanism for their wares.
The problem is one of accountability. Apple, through iOS maintains a very interesting relationship with developers - should someone manage to sneak an app through, they can "out" that developer very easily because they have full billing details of that developer. If you know you're not anonymous in the App Store, you're a lot less likely to write malware when it can be traced back to you.
Because setting up false accounts or hijacking other people's accounts for the purpose of their activities is something that malware authors would never be able to do.
45:11 would be just as logical as 11:45, it just seems strange because it is unfamiliar. A better approximation of the US date format applied to time would be to include the seconds as 45:00:11.
Before Cook, Australia was part of that great continent they expected to find. Abel Tasman's maps, which Cook was using, showed parts of the West Coast of Australia, the East Coast of New Zealand, and a big unknown in between.
I was trying to put a superscript TM after the italicized part of my comment to make it more obviously a joke, but Slashdot doesn't let me. Unlike the AC, I have no problem with your FTFY response.
Not much use exploring articles about political biases in civil rights articles in the UK using "Democrat" and "Republican" as terms. "Labour", "Scottish National Party", "Plaid Cymru","Liberal" , and "Conservative" (amongst others) might be more useful.
One guy may say that the sun is green, the other guy may say it's purple. Having both of them in the same article does not make it neutral.
And given that it is a well known fact that reality has a liberal bias, clearly the results of this study indicate that Wikipedia has a strong republican bias.
Remember TomTom owns TeleAtlas. So this isn't just about defending their PND devices from smartphone applications like Waze, but about defending their ability to sell maps to other Navigation device manufacturers. In this respect, OSM and other open map providers are more of a threat, as the data is available for use in such products, and in some parts of the world, is becoming preferred by end users. Waze, while a very strong competitor to TomTom, is a closed system, albeit with user generated maps.
Nokia owns one of the biggest mapping companies around, navteq.
And guess who owns Navteq's biggest competitor? TomTom are not so much worried about sales of their PNDs here, as sales of their maps (though the fact that a competitor owns TeleAtlas has had most other PND vendors switching to Navteq over the past few years, so the decline in map sales may not be entirely due to the competition from OSM).
Are remale-owned IT firms PREVENTED from bidding on work the same as a male-owned company?
I think its more a case that small business is prevented from bidding on government contracts in general. Unfortunately the government has sought to address this by bundling it up with schemes to address low representation of females and minorities in government contracts, so only female or other minority owned small businesses need apply.
Note one thing that's very different in IPv6 - a node can have several IPv6 addresses, something that was not there in IPv4
There is nothing to stop you configuring multiple IPv4 addresses. In fact it's quite normal for a node to have a 169.254.x.x address in addition to any address assigned to it by DHCP or static configuration.
That should be: Your ISP has no shortage, so they will just give you a permanent block of addresses. Your PC can then use the privacy extension to choose a random address from that block at whatever interval it is configured to.
The fuel is not all spent. Some reactors at the plant were offline for routine maintenance at the time of the quake, and their fuel was being temporarily stored in the spent fuel pool of reactor 4. I don't know what effect that has on your "window of danger for about six months", if any. According to a report on NHK a few months back, the crane for moving fuel in and out of the spent fuel pool was damaged in the earthquake, and radioactivity levels are not expected to be low enough for it to be safely repaired until the end of 2013. Current status of the reactor 4 building is that it can still withstand an earthquake up to magnitude 7, but has already sustained enough damage that anything beyond that could have severe consequences. An "expert" on that program claimed that the risk of an aftershock greater than magnitude 7 before the crane can be repaired is 80%. I don't know how accurate all this information is, but I expect NHK vets the credentials of their commentators a lot better than Slashdot does.
I'm imagining that world... and I just see a whole lot of licenses being signed in a hurry.
So which bunch of dreamers do you work for, the BSA, the RIAA, or the MPAA? Those of us living in the real world know that putting a price on something that was previously free doesn't automatically mean everyone will happily subsidize your cocaine and prostitutes.
Microemacs is a completely different beast than Emacs. It has all the arcane keybindings with only a fraction of the functionality of Emacs. It really only exists so that Emacs users can have an editor that feels familiar on underpowered platforms that cannot fit a full Emacs installation. I definitely wouldn't recommend it to newbies, and you should in no way judge Emacs based on your experience with microemacs.
In emacs type "C-x (", then... "C-x )" ends the macro.
F3 and F4 are better keybindings for macros in Emacs. As well as being single keystrokes, they have context sensitive functionality: F3 starts recording a macro, or while recording inserts an auto-incrementing counter. F4 ends recording, or when not recording plays back the last macro.

They're French, so it should be SECAM.

Give the guy a break. After all those parliamentary sessions sitting across the house from Geogina Beyer, a man does get a little curious.

TomTom still supply data to Google, so they are not as immediate a threat as OSM.
5 years ago, a 20%pa ROI from land ownership was probably considered reasonable. These days, not so much.
So... Accenture, EDS, Northrup, Lockheed... no, I don't think government IT contracts have anything to do with meritocracy.

But, but... he's not a child soldier, he's a child illegal combatant, so human rights laws do not apply.
