Well it's all really a matter of odds. I'm just saying people choose very bad places to build. Not just New Orleans. Some smarts should go into it before we start messing with nature.
As an example flood plains are there for a reason yet we build on them after extensive and costly projects. People still loose life and property when that 100 year flood hits.
It's just not smart. Sure you can't avoid everything but you can at least try to be intelligent about where you choose to live/build.
Honestly what is the problem with the New York Times login?
I signed up way back at the stary and I have never received any email to the address I signed up with. That address was solely created for the nytimes.com site too.
This has been going on for YEARS. I have one domain name with 5 real users on it and I am getting blasted constantly with unknowns. Not 10 million but more like 25k a day.
There are ways around it.
1. If you're using SpamAssassin monitor what email addresses are getting hit as unknowns. If one gets say more than 20 hits add it to the blacklist to. That way if a real address gets the message and has one of those cc'd it will get tagged. I figured if they send to a common unknown it's probably safe to blacklist it.
2. If your MX's can do it send them a list of valid accounts. That way you don't have to reject unknowns from your secondary and they don't have to try to send you the email.
3. Another is to create a perl script that tails the maillog. Then once a rejected message is seen ban that IP address to port 25. It won't ban it until after that message is complete but you won't get repeat connections. I've set up a rolling filter of sorts that will remove the bans after a while. It sounds bad but it works. I went from 25k of rejected a day to 14k or less. It also doesn't hurt normal email as they will either queue or hit your secondary. Sure greylisting works like this but I hate filling up my logs and wasting traffic.
Just some thoughts. Pick em apart but they work for me.

He must decide on going to jail for something he is completely innocent of, or releasing potentially incriminating evidence on his friend.
Actually he would be guilty of not releasing the encryption key and that's what he would go to jail for. Not the aquarium, baby sharks, laser pointers, and duct tape. So he's not completely innocent.
GoodGuy has probably already broken the law anyway (to some degree) by helping his friend hide the information. It's just he wasn't caught yet.
He told the conference that when you print money, you devalue the money you already printed, and that was what was happening with increasing the number of domain names.
Well this all because of stupidity and the commercialization of the Internet. TLDs had a purpose but that purpose now has been shifted into one thing. Create anther so people will register their name again.
Stupid courts/and others are to blame for letting companies/groups think they have to have their name in each TLD even though that TLD has nothing to do with them.
Remember dependent claims don't count on patents. The ipod isn't mentioned until later (and as a dependent claim) only the generic classification MP3 player is used.
I thought the ipod converted music (MP3s included) to it's own format or am I wrong?
Hmmm... Sure we meant to say THAT but in patents you have to watch yourself very carefully.
This is probably from not not understanding what BSD is or how its set up (no offense meant).
With BSD you get the whole works and not just the kernel with someones distribution of tools on top of it./usr/local is where the things go that are not from the default install go. Everything else outside of that generally is maintained by BSD.
It's a way of keeping what extra things you have installed seperate from the OS.
interface names
You are right it is a little annoying when you replace a card with a different type. But then again you would have to tell the system in some file or by some link where the interface is so it's not much different that just configuing the interface card name directly.

One thing that BSD does that I like compared to a lot of the other UN*X systems out there is they recongize that the structure of the system should be a tree and not a bramble bush. It makes it very hard when you have to go from to file to track things down or following links all over.
I want to know what hardware Fedora supports. Like which RAID controllers, Ehternet cards, video cards, and Etc are supported. Where do I find this information at?
Is there a list out there somewhere that is easy to look this up on or do I have to dig around for every little piece?
I checked the Fedora FAQ and nothing popped out as a definitive list. Just base hardware requirements.
No decent software? Obviously you haven't played Lumines or Hot Shots Golf. They are putting out good games of course you get a lot of junk too but those two are definite winners.
As an educational institution, we hope that the applicants involved in this incident might learn from their experience.
I hope the educational institution might have learned something too. Like have a secure system.
Sure temptation is there and control should have been exercised. However it is really stupid just to brush everyone or any of them aside. It's just like the rules now days where the punishment is the punishment because you don't have to think.
No one gains a thing out of it. Well except Berkely. They gain some more people cheering for them when they play Stanford.

But generally it's not that more "events" are happening, rather that more people are in the way
Simple answer is this. Don't build in these bad areas. Only fools or risk takers build in those places.
Of course then we're dumb enough to help them recover again and again and again. So I guess we're all just as foolish.

Well sort of
What's worse is people miss the point with their own mindset they can't get past.
That man would most likely be alive today if he just obeyed the police officers.
How can it be any clearer than that? Or am I just wrong in thinking if he did obey he would be alive today.
Somewhere along the line people have gotten the stupid idea that you can disobey an order from a police officer.

4.11 supports the 386 just 5.* and above won't.

Of course you have to ask yourself the question why would you want to use a 386?
I can't think of a good reason. Well except to poke at their decision. Or unless you can't just dig down a little deeper in the dumpster to the 486's.
It's only true flame bait when you don't quote the whole thing.
In many ways, FreeBSD has always been the operating system that GNU/Linux®-based operating systems should have been
The key phrase is "In many ways". It's not a definite and there are many who would agree with that statement.
It's always a treat to see someone selectively quote part of a sentence trying to make it mean something else.

Is an iPOD an MP3 player as said in their claim?
Remember dependent claims don't count on patents. The ipod isn't mentioned until later (and as a dependent claim) only the generic classification MP3 player is used.

From what I was told this was/is also done with USENET. Of course it's not as popular now I'd guess.
Hotmail and MSN will flag as potential spam those messages that do not have the tag to verify the sender
It's only fair cause we already tag mail from those domains as potential spam.
Given the number of PSPs sold 100,000+ is a believable number.
One statistic that needs to be looked at is out of the 100,000+ movies sold how many people bought more than one movie. I'd bet not many.
It's a novelty at best. I own a PSP and wouldn't even think of buying a movie for it.
It's easier to buy a portable DVD player. Bigger screen and your movies will work in other players.

Actually the magic of movies right now is called repeats oh I mean remakes that or "TV shows on the big screen".
I really like to think of it is as lack of an original idea.
What is it called when you search for something?
I'll go google for the answer and get back to you.
