I was eating lunch at the local Hooters when the test aired. All the TV's in the place went to the same test screen, when they were on different sports channels before. So it worked for DirecTV at least.
Since your passwords change so often, it wouldn't really help to put it in your will. You could however have a master file with all of your passwords that is encrypted and updated monthly. The encryption key for that could be with your lawyer who handles your will, trusted sibling who will be the executor, etc. They would have the password, but keep the file on a thumb drive or some other device in your possession. To be more secure, you could keep the device with the encrypted file in a safe deposit box. They will then need to take a death certificate and proof of executorship to the bank to get into the box. That way they won't have easy access to the device until after you are gone. Just need to go over it beforehand with whoever is going to handle it for you.
From the article: "Splintering DNS forks the Internet so that Internet users might never know where to go to get domains, or what they might get. If they connected to some DNS directories, they might enter Coke.com and get Pepsi. Chaos could ensue. All for what Vixie sees as not a noble question to uphold the free spirit of the Internet but instead a self-serving marketing stunt intended to promote Kashpureff's own business. Some things, writes Vixie, should just work, and DNS is one of them."
I'm with Vixie on this one. You shouldn't jack with one of the fundamentals of the internet.
While I agree with most of this, how is Friday night the death slot? Stargate SG-1 ran for 10 years in the same Friday night slot didn't it? I am however still unhappy that they killed off Atlantis and Universe.
As far as I know, don't we still have a trade embargo with Iran? If so, how are they using Supermicro servers and Windows 7? They are both U.S. companies.
I have been using everyone.net for years and it is quite good. It's reliable, and has a full featured ajax interface. It also has an HTML version for slow connections. It supports POP and IMAP. The price has gone up in the last few years, but it is still decent. Their base plan now comes with 10GB of email storage.
Well I was personally at Carmack's QuakeCon keynote where he said that they will eventually release the source for id tech 5 the same way they have with previous games. So even if there is not a Linux release right away, there will be one somewhere down the line.
Ahh, you certainly astound me with what you don't know... Obviously you've never been in a Fry's since everyone in the service department is a technician (save one shipping clerk). We don't have separate people working the counter like other stores do. Sounds like YOU need to get the facts straight before you lie.
Actually, I work for Fry's Electronics. We sell a couple flavors of linux, along with a couple of BSD... We have more than one technician that uses linux at home, and have promoted it and installed it on numerous customer's computers.
While I'm not the biggest fan of Microsoft or their products, this is quite blatant piracy. I work for a computer repair shop where we get customers asking us to do stuff like this all the time, but it is the same as stealing one off the shelf. Any tech in my shop would be fired instantly for doing something like this. The golden rule is, if you can't afford it then don't buy it. I would be going after them too if I was Microsoft. These are companies pretty much promoting piracy.
Yeah, sounds neat until you ever have it stolen or lost. Have you ever tried to get a drivers license replaced? Try going for who knows how many weeks without a debit card. At least banks can usually replace them in a few days.
Not to mention the identity theft aspect of it. Before they would have to steal two cards, now they would only need to steal one. Sounds good for crooks, eh?
Come on, I doubt this is going to be as big as people think. Certainly not big enough to be trolling through FCC filings for the tiniest bit of spec info to feed people's Apple lust. I have a feeling this phone will go the way of the Newton. Over-priced and before its time...
Calypso ( http://www.mcsdallas.com ) is the best I have ever found. Easily supports multiple email accounts, and has lot of features. You can get the full version for 30 days I belive before it turns into Calypso Lite which still has alot of features. Of course I loved it so much I bought it.

I think twitter will have the same effect as a monkey throwing darts...

This is how it begins. First, they are running laps. Next thing you know, a T1000 is running you down in the streets.

Where is the slow-newsday tag?
Now that will be a cold day in hell when they get that money out of me.
