I use password safe at work. Bruce "Applied Cryptography" Schneier came up with it. It works like all the others I guess and it uses a blowfish somehow! But I am losing the Win95 machine I use at work (yea!) so I need one that will work on an iMac. Ideas anyone?
Sorry... But is this suppose to be a good thing? Maybe I'm missing something. If I'm not touching my mouse what the hell do I care what is on the screen. Couldn't you do this anyway by monitoring the mouse port. I may be biased by the Microsoftian nature of this (HA-HA) discovery, but I think this is another excuse to increase the price of a mouse. I saw the light mouse MS invented in a store for 75 bucks! Wow great! Why don't you put a cup holder on it and charge an extra ten bucks.
B:----> The Quakes and damage I've been seeing are too horrific to think about so I go into a state of denial. My brain just kinda pushes it out of the way. "That could never happen here." and "Gee... is it going to rain tomorrow?"
Another thing they say is the problem isn't NT it's the hardware you running it on that causes crashes. (gee windows 9x and Linux seem to be able to run fine!) Try to find a current Hardware Compatibility List that is up to date.
Rather than trying to beat Microsoft at everything, why not invent new stuff that nobody has thought of before?
Thanks for the advice Bill, now go back to counting your money. Who the hell needs a browser or Java? You could add that to your myths page.... Linux doesn't have apps. Linux doesn't have a browser. Linux doesn't have Java.
If every transaction against my account MUST pass through my hands to get posted, I have a lot more control and information.
What make you think that transactions must go thru you? What if I had your check number, and a printer? Don't even talk about signatures. You really don't have any control.
Reguardless, it is still true, and 99% of the users out there don't give a damn about getting the source code.
Getting the source code effects everyone who uses Free Software. The analogy of welding a cars hood closed is right on the money. I don't fix my car. But it is easy to find someone who is. If I didn't get source code with software someone might try to hold that against me. Therefore getting the source code on every disk benefits me directly.
conventional Linux geeks appear to be losing touch with the changing face of the Linux mainstream
Again Slashdot has its collective head in the sand while Ziff Davis Meggacorp has its finger on the pulse of the Linux mainstream! draws the ire of the Linux faithful..... are they serious?
I feel your pain.. I have the same feelings about this from a tech support job. I cringe when I heard people hitting Reply To All: GET ME OFF THIS LIST. jeeze These people where the ones causing the problem by hitting RTA: Of course the message gets longer and longer! Then someone else does the same thing and the same people whip off another RTA.
Didn't I just read in the news somewhere that diamonds really don't have any intrinsic value. The value we place in them is artificially created by keeping a tight grip on supply and demand? Well they sure are perty!
Just run your encrypted text into a heisenberg compensator which is cross connected into a infinite improbability generator. After this the message still looks the same but the universe will have to be decrypted in order to read it. :)
Those are all written by the same person! Good proof that these guys are raving lunatics. Dvorak is faster and printing this crap over and over will not change that. The problem with Dvorak is finding good cheap keyboards. Most Dvorak keyboards run about 70 bucks.
Just because this was covered by slashdot before doesn't mean it was correct. Just look at CmdrTaco contention that cookies are no security threat. They might not be Active-X but the are more than nothing.
Do you think my mother, grandmother or girlfirend have the faintest idea how long a kilometer is? How many people out there in the US know the metric system?
Do you think they know how long a mile is? Ask them, I BET they don't know. Could they walk exactly a mile? NO All they really need to know is what speed to drive.
I hate when people trash the command line. What do you use in real life...... words? Do you talk to people using a complicated syntax with all kinds of rules? OR Do you use pantomime? Walking around pointing to things to communicate.
A novice computer user should not be trying to install an OS.
The problem is that many windows users think they are computer literate, because they installed some install-shield app. They are far from computer literate if they don't know what fdisk is.
Thank God for AOL! (I never thought I would say that!) Thank GOD AOL has a good bankroll to fight this. I just hope they try to fight this. It will be a test case of software patents. I hope they don't see it in their best interest to lose. Maybe they have their own patents as well.

I guess this is the "good old red hat" version. Has only true GPL stuff in it. This is good cause I wouldn't buy a $80 version of RH.
Wookies can go back to Endor as far as I'm concerned.
Bwwaaaaaaawwwwwaaaaaawaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Ha They always say that.

Did you ever look at a guitar string with a TV behind the string (to create a strobe effect). It's very cool. You can see the wave move and change.
Well now ya know what I do for fun!

Funny part about this is that if this stuff is put into effect, we wont be able to talk about the President:
Bush or Gore
(but we could talk about Bradley!)
