Users are uneducated and shouldn't know DNS even is. If it looks like chasebank.com in the address bar then they arrived at the right place.

The gangs in Russia so far are ahead in the security game and even have their own storm bot supercomputer to help use such schemes.
The answer is yes and I would not advertise your site here.
Amazon can afford lawyers because the bookstore does not own the ISDN. However you can not afford $30,000 in court costs and lose of work to show up in court. Take down the ISDN numbers and only list the book titles. The bookstores can't launch a frivilious lawsuit agaisnt you for listing prices for titles.
Gnome 2.x is alot faster than gnome 1.x. Also a new memory allocating routine has been added in gnome 2.17 that drastically improves load time when starting programs. Give it a try? Its free.
Sucks if its the only dsl carrier you have. Companies like Speakeasy and earthlink use monopoly dsl lines so it wont make a difference. Cable is alot slower than dsl so I do give up alot.
They already mod down encryption traffic. Doing remote Xlogins and ssh are unusable with many DSL and cable ISP's intentionally thanks to the p2p crowd encrypting everything and taking 97% of the traffic.
If supply increases then so does demand as the buyers have more bargaining power to select those with the lowest price. In other words if the quantity is more limited then techs can demand more in salary as they have the bargaining power. But artificially changing the supply has the same adverse effect with the wages as if you dont do x for y wage then this Indian will. Take it or leave it?
I wonder if we had h1b1 employers to help us bring some more foreign firms to hire to artificial increase the demand if these politicians would feel the same?
Its not the governments job to change teh supply and demand curve of markets.
But the faster you push data on copper the more vulnerable to distortion and corruption the data becomes. Wires act like antennas and absorb em radiation from the computer and other sources. This is why gigabit ethernet has a very short distance the cable can cover vs 100mbps cables.
Light doesn't suffer from this problem and thus can handle faster data.
The storm bot network is mostly in western countries with unpatched windows machines. If we cut off the internet to russia a russian mob official could just log into the storm network from the Us or any other western nation.
Also Reagan and many true conservatives refused to back down from the soviet union and neither will the current white house. However a second cold war is coming and you are 100% correct that Putin doesn't give a shit. Probably because the mobfia is more organized than his own security force and could assassinate him and destabilize his country if he pisses them off enough.
Maybe he is on it too? He has many ties to Russian oil firms and they also have ties with the mobfia over there. Infact its impossible to own a business without a friendly visit from these gangs demanding extortion and money laundering.
I dont think the US is scared or Russia. Its just inept and doesn't care or is too ignorant to know whats going on. If you and I were president it would be a different matter I am sure.
Local authorities here have no power to do anything and the federal government like the FBI and whitehouse need to do something before its too late. As it is online banking is going down in popularity because of hacks and people's information being stolen. In a few years the industry itself will die online.
" Whenever I ran out of screws for my drives in the drive bays, good ol' gum was there to save the day! I guess I'll have to go back to paper clip drive mounting"
Nice to see another nice Geeksquad employee posting here on/. Try to stay off of/. when there are customers in the store. Thanks
Agreed which is why I would prefer to remain private with a few investors if I owned a business rather than sell out to wallstreet.
But they have a right to dictate and many times the CEO's got gready and wanted huge overcompensation at the trade of losing control of their company at public opening.
Jobs are just jobs even if your boss is a nutcase who wants to satisfy investors who have no idea who you or he is.
I personally do not like being bashed by gnu zealots and RMS is insulting Linus which I am not cool with. I think its an ego thing more than a freedom bent.
GPLv3 like has been posted many times here is not the be all and end all and we should be able to chose. Its not best nor the most ideal license for many reasons I and others have stated.
Like an old cs professor said "Free software is only free if your time is not worth anything". Also their are hardware costs for the computer.
There are most certainly costs but if you make them free then they are alot lower. Of course we all can't work for free if we want to exist in society.
Seriously I got my MCSE after seeing Xenix err openserver in action and supported NT. Everything kept going haywire and was very complex and broken.
Today I know better and like FreeBSD and Linux but old SCO left a bad taste in my mouth and almost turned me into a unix hater straight from the unix haters manual.
Linux and.. hell even NEtBSD can run circles around it. Linux used to have support for running unixware binaries doing 2.0x if I remember correctly. Its gone now because their is no demand.
Besides unixware hardware support is very and I mean very limited. Even solarisx86 has 10x more hadware support and you dont need an ancient scsi-3 or ultra to boot unlike Unixware.
But that event will scare the crap out of any paranoid liability scared company from using Linux.
I would not want to run Linux if I would be employed in an environment where a single letter from a legal department could be automatic termination. Its not worth risking my job even if MS has no right like you claim.
Liability scares everyone in this day and age and could do some big damage. As its been mentioned several banks have anti gnu/foss and linux clauses in their IT deparments thanks to SCO. Fud worked.
I sensed Mcbride was already looking at real estate in the carribean when I read this headline. My guess is that since SCOX has been taking down from dow would be the most excellent time to raid the company of its assets and run! By the time the filing is over all the executives and his McBides brother(who is one of the lawyers) will be sitting on a few million dollars in cash in a mansion in Jamaica or Canada and retire.
Civil suites can not really be brought agaisnt someone outside the US unless its an international contract.
The reason behind this according to an interview with Linus is that he wanted to stabilize a common codebase.
Many commerical developers have steered clear of linux and supported Windows and Solaris for this reason. Oracle even has a script that will make their rdms refuse to run if any modifications are made on a stock rhles installation. Binary and abi compatibility is important as Microsoft knows.
Yes there are changes like this but it wont break apps or a huge way linux works. 2.6 is likely to be permanent unless a real overhaul or change is needed (like maybe rewriting for gpl v3).
Small incremental improvements serve everyone better and make less development time. It took years for a total switch from 2.4 to 2.6.
The flamewar is based on drama between 2 waring linux developers. One is accusing the other of being Linuses favorite and stealing algorithms and ideas with the different schedulers. I think the other developer quit linux alltogether as a result.
That is why its a big deal. Many developers have loyalities to one of the process scheduler develoepers.
What about freedom of supporting my family by writting commericial software?
What about the ethics of supply and demand and making money for myself, boss, and family?
Its not all about the users as in any market there is maker and a consumer. Free software has devalued alot of software but I do use it and find it valuable for my own use and for programmers. The BSD folks would argue their licnese respects both rights. Linus thinks if Tivo wants to use his software then great. Its for everyone and not just for hackers living in their mom's basement.
I was going to say something similiar. You think the teenage kid at McDonalds enjoys being humuliated by his customers? OR does he work there to get money for school or for a car? What about the custodian cleaning your office?
Yes we all do things for money. Its the most efficient reward that works better than anything else. Sure some people hate their jobs or whom they work for but most mature folks will simply seek another employer. Thats life and nothing would get done otherwise. If you have a job you enjoy then good for you because your in the minority.
If your in a nice cushy job that compensates well then your going to do a damn good job in order to keep it. My wife and I noticed this when we got our first real high paying or I should say middle class jobs when we were lower class previously.

Miguel has shown interest in mono for 3.x versions of gnome to overcome this issue. Then other .net supported languages can be used.
Not to say I think its a good idea to use a patented technology from a convicted monopolist is a good idea but he seems to think so.
... and I wipped out Ubuntu for Windows due to school wifi's reliance on Cisco's security software. Proprietary software sucks.
WIndowsXP is so limited to gnome but I do like MS Office at least on my now boring machine.
The law of supply and demand.
If supply increases then so does demand as the buyers have more bargaining power to select those with the lowest price. In other words if the quantity is more limited then techs can demand more in salary as they have the bargaining power.

Linux users dont believe in paying for software so porting it would not be economical. sorry but the stats dont lie

Doesn't chapeter 11 bankruptacy protect SCO from giving Novel any money?
I am not a lawyer but I would like to know as I assume chapter 11 is used often to avoid making payments that can bring a company under.
