Eh it isn't that amazing. It is decent, but the number of false positives is scary on any comercial email even things like conferences notifications that I want.
But setup your mail to bounce a copy to gmail for a bit and see what happens.
And it costs money (granted not as much if you use the discount97 code deal, which also negates this guy's ref code, still not a fantastic deal but better).
Oh and most web interfaces lack some of the nicer features.
Of course were one really determined well there are VPS providers.
It is cryptography in a sense but in a far more important sense it is a standard AI/OCR/Signal problem. I mean the tools are in both cases math so they could both solve it, but the problems needed are much closer to other field's toolsets.
EvilServer waits for porn access attempt which it pauses on, runs out and grabs a page on yahoo (or whatever) saves the image locally, EvilServer sends porn user page referencing local to EvilServer image. EvilServer is setup so the invalidation time on the captcha is less then Yahoo's (which is I believe 10 min). Evil server use porn user input and continues session with yahoo.
It also means that anyone can verify based on anyone elses captchas, so if you have more bandwidth then time, you can just use a bit of scripting to use some one elses captcha.
It is rather disimiliar to encryption. It is just noisy input. lots of signal detection, and standard ocr practices can be used. Getting around them is pretty easy honestly, mostly because you don't have to be as good as an average human but only as good as a guy with bad glasses, and a fuzzy screen, otherwise known as a couple percentile points from bottom. Websites simply can't afford to be too demanding of visual or auditory accuity, as customers lost is profit lost.
Actually it is not the first time it has been included in an operating system. Windows 2000 and XP both shipped with indexing, it just had a tragically broken unuseable UI (secret codes??? WTF?). The other option for a battery life decrease is just the normal feature creep, every OS release hurts a litle bit more, and takes a bit more cpu time, and a bit more bits flung around. Since cpu time and flinging bits around costs battery life one would expect a bit of a reduction. Eh just a thought.
really though apple isn't doing that bad, If they keep up at it they might get somewhere. (The trick is not to beat microsoft, but to keep beating microsoft, as microsoft is buffered against temporary insurections.)
Actually a lot of beef cows are fed on corn, and some bonemeal. Not the type of corn we would normally eat, but close enough. It is actually not very good for them, but they don't generally live long enough for that to be a concern. Of course most of that is because subsidies cause corn to be artificially cheap, that and the increase in speed of fatening. But using cows or sheep to get the most out of marginal land is a good practice, just a lot of beef cattle is not being raised that way.
I think django might still be little bit raw to be used in production. I mean they don't have an official version yet for crying out loud. It is really cool though.
Honestly Dell at least has been pretty good at getting parts out the door, as long as the order is in before 3-4pm the previous day it shows up next day, and early next day at that. Every once in a great while there is a backorder, and it takes them two-three days.
IBM servers hehe has this funny policy in that they only promise tech on site within four hours, the part? well the part can take a few days. Oh so fun.
HPaq, bah they try,... sort of.
In the end the solution is to have hot spares. One per few hundred desktops or so.
Same thing with servers, it is better to have two fast failover servers then one server with some redundancy.
Keep spares around, and everything else is just implementation details.
Well MS's software installs cleanly, and generally takes at least 6 months to break, compared to the aftermarket software business they are doing pretty good.
It sounds nice but baseball is well, a sport where half - 1 of the players is basically in a line, and just because you are on the field doesn't mean the game is interesting
MS's sticker for computers is for compatability, not quality (in other words is it made from stuff on the windows hardware list). A quality sticker can be very helpful, if they bother to do serious testing.
MS can do serious testing, WHQL tested drivers are slim, reliable, and generally just work. If the MS list is as good well, then the world will be a better place.
The real problem is that there is no feature point way to say that it is built to actually be used.
Yet it strangely fits. It will be taken, mangled, nearly abandoned, and then if the project is lucky it will have a sucess from out of the blue, that gets enough momentum behind it to do something.
You do realize that there are a lot of coal fired steam turbines used to generate electricity right? So there that is my contribution. The rest is left as an exercise to the reader
Of course it is just as doable under linux, and windows. Though if you can get a program that uses the AT&T voices do so. (Also Cepstral voices are supposed to be good).
http://www.viavirtualearth.com/ViaVirtualEarth/Def ault.aspx?tabid=36 They already have a pretty open easy embedeable version. MS is a developer oriented company in a lot of ways and they are starting to realize that web services need are platforms and not always end products. (Considering how long it has been since Amazon oppened up with web services they are just about on the vaunted MS schedule). MS isn't unstoppable, but they are pretty open about embedding, they know they don't need to have thier name on everything, I mean look at embdeded IE, which has now gotten to the point where thousands of programs use it and depend on it.
OS X was built to be an opperating system, if the guy had any cojones he'd be using actual imaging processing libraries and it would be faster, and likely run on lin/win/mac (And yeah that is might not work who knows, ask slashdots never really have enough detail)
And vbs would most likely be cheaper. The hardware is most likely free to the user, VBS is utterly free. Really, the guy is an ass for speaking against his client in a public forum. It isn't that hard to do most things standing on your head. And most standard photoshop books are pretty good on automation
In all honesty vbs is the equal of or even better then applescript. So it is more a failure of the consultant (for not knowing or wanting to learn vbs) then the client.
"Had to"??? Eh they were poking fun at themselves. I assure that the fact that they were putting such things in means that they still were involved and caring. If a writter actually doesn't like a show, they don't say it is horrible, they at some point decide to be lazier and lazier.
I have noticed that a lot of people don't seem to get (or if they do get, don't like) that the simpsons mostly makes fun of the Simpsons anymore. Doesn't mean the monkeys don't care just means they are increasingly running out of culture that hasn't been mocked.
Well I overheard a manager ordering some sets to be moved around because whatever little feed thing he had was giving static on some outputs, and he wanted the cheap sets there. I mean not a big deal, but I imagine that sort of handicapping goes on a lot.
Or if you have decent managed switches, you can just ask the switches of course.
Otherwise just send out an email to the building staff saying you can bring it down, but it will entail some disruption and expense and that said expense will be billed to the offending department. Nothing like the threat to bill their supervisor.
But I thought (honestly) that the reason home based systems were popular was because of... ummmm.... less family focused stuff. Just a thought, it does change the equation some.
Sadly you haven't even got one proposal nor has anyone even made you a friend, This my friends is the true decline of slashdot.
Let us all bow our heads.
Seriously though, posting in a big topic driven forum where relatively few people read the comments, and fewer still make comments with any regularity that would cause familiarity, is not the way to dating greatness, for anybody... unless of course you want to get into a latex bsd daemon suit.;)
Well it limits the ease of someone creating a swing like thing that better integreated with the native OS. I mean it isn't a big loss just an annoyance. Like I said it only affects the toolkit authors not the users.

That would be there the hot old stupidity with the ungooglable name http://www.there.com/index.html Some slashdot articles on it too, very scary
Ummm yeah that :P
