I had it and I played around with my cookies to try to trick the counter into giving me more counts. However, I think I played with it too much because after playing around with it, the counter didn't work anymore. Supposedly during the 'test' phase, you only get up to 100 counts, but I had increased it up to I had set the value to 10000 or something and then it stopped working. Oh well.
Oh man, you beat me to it. I was going to suggest that website because my friends and I (when we were laid off) lived off that site everyday to help us get through our days.

Considering the fact that MSN Messenger is free, and the chat room environment is free, and I never paid a penny to Microsoft to gain access for MSN Messenger or MSN Chatrooms, Microsoft has every right to do whatever they want to do with it. If anything, they have the right to close it off to paid customers of MSN (any slashdot readers out there on MSN Service?)
If they want to monitor the chatrooms they can and they should. Compared to AOL and Yahoo! chatrooms, MSN chatrooms are much cleaner and much more strict. Even though it is still populated with p0rn bots idling around, at least they have bots and hosts of their own in the chatroom that will kick users out.
Wow, this guy just figured this out? I've been looking up whois information JUST for that kind of information since 1994. I'm sure there are other people who have been doing it way before I have. It is pretty nifty though!
India I believe is still majority an agricultural country. Granted, Bangalore is consider the fastest technology growing city in Asia. However, if you google for Bangalore and select a few links, you will see that Bangalore is also becoming the urban city of the west where it is dealing with a massive population explosion, every form of polution problem known to man, i.e. ranging from air to water. And you also have the urban ghettos and slumbs in the country side where the malnutrition is also a big problem. This article describes some of these urban ghetto problems. So before you make a permanent change of address, you may want to take a second look and perhaps listen to the final words from an old rap song from Naughty by Nature...
If you ain't ever been to the ghetto Don't ever come to the ghetto 'Cause you ain't understand the ghetto And stay the f*ck out of the ghetto
I just came back from a two month business trip in Japan. From what I saw in their bookstore was that there were several BSD magazines with 5.1 that comes with the magazines. I didn't see too many linux magazines though. Maybe the Japanese prefer BSD. Any Japanese slashdot readers out there?
I was working in Hawaii back in March-May and I'm actually from Northern Virginia. Apparently, Hawaii has been deploying DVR for a while now and it's basically the same thing that New York is deploying. From skimming through the rest of the thread I also noticed that there are other areas that have the system already deployed. I guess it's just slowly reaching the various cable markets. I have not seen this on the Cox network yet nor have I heard anything regarding this.
Anyone out there on the Cox cable network and have heard of possible DVR services?
Granted they can track the use of the IPv6 address to your IPv4 address. But unless they are running packet sniffers against your IPv6-to-IPv4 datagrams and actually exam the IPv6 datagrams, I don't think they would be able to track you.
Also, you must realize that there aren't any Kazaa clients that is IPv6ed, yet... so the idea of P2Ping on IPv6 is still a pipe dream... none the less.... still kind of cool though:-)
Awesome! I have an old PowerPC 850 that is running potato on it. It's pretty good for a webserver (considering I got it for free). It would be great when the new PPC comes out.
It's great that they are now streaming in IPv6. I wonder when RIAA will track them down and force them to pay the royalties on the audio streams they are providing. Perhaps people will start migrating p2p applications to IPv6 so at least for the time being, RIAA will be behind the times. When RIAA catches up, just move the application to the new experimental IP stack. Welcome to the new cat-and-mouse game.
I'm actually from Northern Virginia, currently away on business staying in Yokohama, Japan. The Sheraton that I am staying at has rolled out LRE (Long Reach Ethernet) that utilizes standard twisted copper phoneline over their standard POTS network. I was quite shocked at how fast the speed is on this network because when I did several speedtests, I was averaging speeds around 1.5mbps up and down. Not too shabby and I only have to pay 1000 yen for the service for the entire duration of my stay. Talk about super sweet! Considering how people think the Dulles Corridor being the "Silicon Valley" of the East Coast, they are so wrong. From what I have seen here, the people here consume data/information services like there is no tomorrow. Albeit cell phones or wireless, the japanese people are crazy about information. I have been walking around the streets and each electronic store I walk by there is a sign for the new Yahoo BB service. People seem to be pretty wild about it because I see people signing up for it. I guess I've rambled on and gone off topic. Bottom line, I would not be surprised that Yahoo BB become a giant because if they can get their data faster, I believe they will want it. It's like what the old saying goes: if you build it, they will come.
If I recall the original name of Apache, it was a play on words of "a patch." Considering that it is "a patch", the results is really not that surprising when compared to its commercial counterparts. The good thing is that it's free. Yay!!!
The Navy will not be moving off the NT platform for another 5 years. All the deployed ships are using NT and they have been using NT and the plan is already set that NT WILL NOT be leaving the ships anytime soon. The earliest we will see NT leaving is 2008.
Though general sales may be down, and the stores are becoming more and strapped for cash, these stores still play a role in how I acquire music. Unlike most popular music, which is readily available via the web or p2p, regional music by artists from Hawaii, or for that matter, from other parts of the world, have no real means of outlet except from the stores in their region, or through the occasional specialty order or imports.
For example, I was recently very fortunate to have spent the last two months in Hawaii (away from the drenching mid-atlantic east coast weather) and I was treated to the sounds of the island. While I was there, I had visited quite a few various msuic outlets, (which on Hawaii, Tower Records has a good market share from the number of stores I had saw), and there is a wide selection of Hawaiian artists to choose from. Being 'tech savvy', I immediately tried to find Hawaiian online, and not to my surprise, it was almost non-existent. Albeit there was a few to choose from, and they were considered 'popular', much of the other artists just were not available. However, I chose to buy several CDs (I bought more CDs while I was on Hawaii than the last few years combined) and I was very happy with my selection.
Coming back to the east-coast, I had continued to listen to more Hawaiian music, courtesy of KCCN and I was tempted to find more music. Again, trying to find them online (web, p2p, amazon and the likes) was impossible, and even going to the local Tower Records down the street, I had found a very poor selection of Hawaiian artists. Needless to say, I called around, and was finally able to locate the CDs that I was looking for. Unfortunately, I had to pay more for these CDs than if I had purchased them in Hawaii. (I had some friends look up the prices at the Tower Records in Hawaii.)
So what is the lesson in all of this? Unless the 'on-line' vendors can provide the selection and customer service, though the music specialty stores may go dwindle, I don't think they will completely go away. A few of the strong ones will remain, if not, they will all end up like HP and Compaq and consolidate efforts rather than to eat into each other's market share.
Off topic, but it would be nice if someone that has the completed client resource files create a bittorrent link and allow for quicker distribution than to wait in line in fileshack. Just a thought...
Senator Hatch is eating his own dogfood on this one. However, this is just the perfect his excuse for the GSA to purchase a super dooper nice system from Dell at an extreme overpriced rate for U.S. Senators.:-/

Didn't even read the article. It wsn't a SPAM machine that went down, it was a machine that contained information that help fight spam.

I have to agree with you on that one. Understanding and using OCI can be quite challenging even for the seasoned programmer.
Don't forget that there are also a few nuclear fallout shelters spread out around the campus. :-)

Did these people forgot that 3DLabs is still around and still make some excellent cards for these CAD applications?

Well, if Intel puts a linux inside this device, we already know whom SCO is going to sue next.
