Why would you advise corporate customers to install honeypots? Do they have someone just sitting around that is skilled enough to analyze the attack for research purposes?
I run a small free mailing list that people can sign up for on my web site. I hardly ever send them a newsletter, maybe once every 6 months. A very strange thing happened, in the last year or so, I've had almost no new signups, compared to about 10 per day in the past. My page hits haven't went down that much during the same period either.
Also, the first several newsletters I sent out had nearly no bounces, but this most recent time, I had something like 2000 bounces out of 4000 emails. People are getting a lot more wary of giving their email out, and they also are cancelling the email addresses they did give out freely in the past.
It's to the detriment of a small site like mine that uses email lists for legitimate purposes.
It's still completely incompatible with older apps. It only emulates the older machine well. Saying X is compatible with classic is the same as saying Linux is compatible with Windows (Wine).
Hams always knew we could use 2.4Ghz at whatever power level we wanted. It's just that when transmitting in a ham capacity, life is pretty boring. You have to identify your station every 10 minutes, you can't transmit anything "obscene", you can't conduct any commercial business, etc. In other words, ham 2.4Ghz can't really ever be used for Internet access.
All the recent games I have played have used Ogg, Mafia, for example, uses a whole lot of open source stuff like zlib and Ogg. I think it's already become a de-facto standard, behind the scenes for most people.
My monitor is one they were getting rid of at work, it's 20 inches, from 1993, and sometimes the screen turns kinda pink, but if you bang it, it comes back.:)
I have about 4 other computers, some better than my primary one (one I use for security video capture has a huge hard disk and lots of vid capture cards).
But my main system I primarily use did indeed cost a little less than $400 total. K7SEM + 900Mhz Duron + 20GB hard disk + 256 RAM + Evercase + Antec 300W + CD-R/Floppy. The floppy was from my old computer, but other than that, it was all new components, brand name RAM, etc.
The wide success of "Tabbed browsing", heralded in by Opera seems to indicate Microsoft was wrong to call MDI "depricated" and attempt to force users to a "document centric" rather than "application centric" view of the computer.
Microsoft's implementation of MDI could easily be called confusing, with multiple sets of window control decorations so close together, however, I don't think that points as much to a fatal flaw in the idea of MDI, as it does to a flawed implementation. MDI has real life analogies too.
Imagine your computer is a large shop, each application is a machine that does a certain function. It is perfectly natural to think in terms of "I need to lathe this piece of metal, so I'll to take it to the lathe. I can set other pieces I am going to lathe on the lathe table."
Document centric is like, "OK I have metal, I need to run it through the lathe, so I will feed it into this huge machine that will try to guess what I want to do with it, and hopefully it will wind up on the lathe." It's very unnatural.
Citrix is incredibly fast too. One downside is that it is very picky, and the mode you can put it in where you can resize the application window makes some applications unhappy. In other words, it's not nearly as transparent as X, but it is insanely fast and bandwidth efficient.
Really, all you free-market guys out there - how does this work? When do we get normality again?
A monopoly is a failing of the free market that is acknowledged by all but the most extreme laissez faire free market supporters.
By their very nature, they subvert the free market to their own ends. On the plus side, monopolies usually get fat and lazy, and a disruptive technology wipes them out. It just takes time.
The article says they used up almost all the ion fuel, but yet it will still have enough for 10 years of trim thrusting, was the original planned life much longer, or did it just have that much extra fuel?
The closer a society gets to sharing the same mindset, the better off it is.
Yeah, like after Sep 11. What are you thinking man?!?
"The majority, oppressing an individual, is guilty of a crime, abuses its strength, and by acting on the law of the strongest breaks up the foundations of society."--Thomas Jefferson to P. Dupont, 1816.
"Bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will, to be rightful, must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal laws must protect, and to violate would be oppression." --Thomas Jefferson: 1st Inaugural, 1801.
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of it's victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busy-bodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those that torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

Yep, it is. It would be pretty sad if it wasn't though, after all Wine is working blind for the most part, whereas Apple has all the source.
No password authentication or anything (who knows the command to do this?)
/bin/bash into inetd.

And the Linux kernel mailing list will be no more, along with thousands of other free mailing lists.

OS X?
If you use mpeg4, you aren't going to get anything from the lossless compression. You can't just keep magically compressing things over and over. :)
Except instead of making me want to spank myself, I want to spank them.
:)
You want to spank computer nerds?

WEP supposedly stands for "wired equivalent privacy", but in reality it is no where close, so your definition may as well be what it stands for.

But they don't lace their computers with a highly addictive substance.
So you're blaming God for lacing Tobacco with it?
ECS K7S5A is a very good low cost motherboard. Huge installed base of Linux users on it. Even has its own HOWTO for Linux on it.
You don't bang your monitor? Man, you are missing out. :)

$250 for the 128 meg, $400 for the 20GB.
In other words, more than my main desktop computer cost.

Considering the C3 933Mhz is slower than a PIII 400.

victimizing the callees - like offering credit cards to people already in debt.
Yeah, I'm glad McDonald's has that "Over 300 pounds? No Service!" Rule.
or avoid offering pat conclusions as deep philosophical insights.
It worked for The Matrix.
