Yes it could be cost effective because you would be able to sell phone services.
The problem is that you will never be able to get the permits/approval to run your own wire. The market is closed to any newcommers. It does not matter how much money you have because you will never get the permit.
Well here is where I have to agree. We should dismantel the FCC and allow anyone who wishes to run their own cable/line to do so.
Their is no need to interconnect telcos. As a metter of fact long distance carriers should not have to provide service to Baby Bells they should run their own wire for long distance to the home.
The Baby bells should create their own network for long distance.
If I'm stupid enough to give you mys car and/or my CC/SS then I would say yes! I should be responsible. This has lasted over a year. It took them a YEAR. a YEAR. They got 13000 accounts in over a year with one password. My system is better secured than that and it contains no CC # no SSN and nothing of value.
So now I will ask you a question. If a bank gets robbed whose money have they stollen yours or the banks. It sounds to me that your claim its yours and not the banks so they may Debit your account for your portion of money stolen.
Yes Mr. President the nuclear missels have been launched. No we are not responsible some group managed essentially to get hold of the passwords, keys, and access.
Give me a brake!!!! It IS FORDS responsibility!!! This has gone on for over a year before they found out. Do the passwords not change on a regular basis? If not then this will ahppen again and both these companies should be held responsible.
is why does Ford and its employees have access to SSN? Why would a credit bureau need such info? Are they paying you a salary? What stops an employee of Ford or any other company from selling this information?
This is negligence in Fords part and they should be held accounatble. They should pay ALL legal fees to clear up this mess. What has ever happened to resposibility?
But then again I hate Ford due to past experiance with a LEMON...the AREOSTAR. What a peice of sh1t. The first year the van spent 6 months at the dealership due to transmission and engine problems. Did they take responsibility? No!
Yes the second part is a little offtopic but the attitude of the company is on topic. They refuse to take responsibility. Why do we accept this? Because legally it would cost too much to fight back and I think that is what is wrong with our society today.
My point is that it does not matter how many forests you replant, these forests will take 30 years to develope to the state in which they are now. We need to reduce CO2 emissions.
My point is if we allow countries to receive credit for their natural resources, what stops a country like Canada from polluting. They will have all the credits that they need to polute two to three times more per capita.
Also, yes the Kyoto agreement didn't make a lot of sense in the US, because it didn't take in to account how many forests the US plants (or other forms of conservation). In this respect, the Kyoto agreement was fundementally flawed. So if we followed your logic Canada does not have to concern itself with pollution?
Better yet partition disk in such a way that/home and/usr/local/mysh1t have their own partitions. save your files there. Before loading a new sys copy/etc and move it there. make bacup of partion. load new OS copy back/etc files you need.
Have done this a couple of times and it took me less than 15 min to upgarde.
What we need is to stop fighting amongst ourselves and start promoting our products. At one point in time each Linux dist will specialise in a certain market and can customise its distro for that market then we will have OSS for all.
something must be wrong with my system or with RH7.2 cause i'm running KDE, Netscape (4.79), SO5.1, Mozzila and Gnome apps (Evolution) at the same time on 128meg RAM.
I do not see a big diff between a PIII 400, 128meg and a PIII 800, 256meg
I have to try it on a PI 166 with 64 to see how bad it gets. But I conssider the 400 an old system. I think any system with 128 meg or more should be fine for a home or work evironment.
I would say there are LOTS more who do not. If we include all the home users then I would say MOST do not. So why is it active be default? Why not activate it when/if you need this feature?
I have not seen one company who uses this feature intetionally but they all have it activated and I have helped hundreds of them clean up after a virus. It does not matter if I turn it off because I do not maintain their networks and they will just reactivate it the next time they reinstall their system. On top of that they are not willing to pay someone to setup their network securely.
If you are talking to managers they see absolutely no need to spend good money on security/AV. They bought norton so all is well. Norton will save them.
No, but you are one of the few who will bother to comment about it. I am also sick and tired of advertising. You buy a product that claims that it can do something only to find out that it is a poor implementation and that it works only under limited conditions or with restrictions.
Take the auto industry for example, most adds are exagerated to a point that you would expect the car to perfom in any road condition but when you get behind the wheel in extrem wheather you find yourself scared for your life. These real life conditions are minor compared to the conditions that the adds claim.
Yes but I could have stolen the pants. How do you know I paid for them?
What makes you certain that I copied the software? Why should you have the right to diturb my business to investigate? Are you goin to compensate me if you find that all terms have been respected?
The issue is not about enforcement but about the tactics used. How can they demand to search for infringements? They should know on which systems these infringements exist. Imagine someone comming up to you on the street and asking you where you bought your pants and to prove it or else you will sued...
Forget system administrators that budget was probably cut a long time ago...schools have little money and place most of it where it is considered critical. With that said most people who pirate software know exactly what they are doing they just do not want to (can not) pay for it. We all want to keep up with the Jones's unfortunately we all can not afford it. On the other hand I do not see why W$ and M$Office cost sooooo much.
I do not blame the pirates. It just makes me feel sad that they feel that they need this software.
Who would not want to have choice in software? You choose what you want. For me the best thing is to have as many apps as possible on a platform. Then I can choose which one is right for me. I can hardly imagine that FORD, GM, HONDA...etc...would only make one type of car. In the same way I cannot imagine only having one choice on any platform.
As far as IE being great on OS X it's a mtter of choice. Give me mozilla any day....

Now I can say look mom I learned someting in high school...I learned how to be a BULLY
I do not blame the pirates. It just makes me feel sad that they feel that they need this software.
What makes software crappy is not that it was ported but what effort was placed in proting the software.

My point exactly...that's why I no longer run Windows on my systems.
