Don't worry, research suggests that drinking coffee or tea may have health benefits. I'll leave the Google search up to you, if you're interested in learning more.
I suspect one day scientists and dieticians will discover that everything is good for you, in moderation.
There are ways to do "traffic shaping" to give TCP ACK packets higher priority, which will prevent this sort of buildup. You have to have a fancy router, or, in my case, Linux with some kernel modules and settings that I haven't figured out yet.
I've also read about some schemes that will limit your upload speed to slightly below the cap, so there's a little spare space for ACKs to get through quickly.
I wonder that too, and I thought I was the only one! People just seem to accept the idea of buying stock, but I don't think they even know what they're doing.
I'm sure you know that if you buy enough shares in a company, your votes at shareholder meetings will have more influence - unless you have non-voting stock, in which case I'm baffled again. What I don't get is why people would buy stock if they have no plans to exert any influence as a partial owner of the company. If they just want to get a return on their money, why not buy bonds issued by the same company? Or stocks with dividends?
My guess is that most people are just speculators. They are hoping to sell the stock some day for more than they paid for it. They take little interest in the actual running of the company of which they are part owners.
I personally would like to know if there were issues like this during other shuttle missions. If there were, the managers' position here might make a little more sense.
Say, for example, that there are engineers on every mission who has serious doubts about something-or-other - not neccessarily the same engineers every time, mind you. And each of those previous times the shuttle landed OK. If that was the case, there may have been no way for the managers to know that Mr. Rocha's concern was "real" and warrented more study (i.e. a request for photos).
How on earth are they going to fix this problem? It seems impossible to me. If the batteries are too low, there's nothing you can do to keep the thing operating - unless you have it refuse to move when the batteries are too low. But then wouldn't the driver fall over anyway, from leaning forward trying to accelerate?
Sometimes it all comes down to good, old-fashioned democracy. If enough people want it, and there are no inherent unfairnesses, then let's make it happen.
In this case, I don't think there are any inherent unfairnesses. It's an opt-in list, restricts only speech that is harrassing in nature, and I am not swayed by the fact that so many telemarkers will, supposedly, lose their jobs.
Be careful what you wish for. A bold, uncompromising "leader" is no good if he is going the wrong direction and won't listen to suggestions to turn around. I am NOT alluding to anyone in particular.
Congress didn't vote directly to overrule the decision. They can't do that. But they did vote to change the law that the decision was based on.
In fact, I think the judge's decision was something like, "The FTC can't enforce this list unless Congress gives them the authority." Well, Congress just gave them the authority!
XFS supports ACLs (specifically, some withdrawn POSIX ACL draft standard, IIRC). Samba (2.2 and up) supports the XFS ACLs. The mapping from NTFS-style ACLs to XFS-style ACLs works well enough for my home use - can't really comment on large-scale use or AD, though.
Oh, XFS is also journaled.
To anyone who has tried XFS/Samba on a large scale, would you care to comment?

So should I just remove these entries completely, or change them to certain values? What are the correct values?

Did you also set sealsecurechannel=1 and signsecurechannel=1? I found I had to do this with my Win2k SP3 box. For your convenience (remove the Slashdot-added spaces):
The DMA runs their own do not call list. I guess they just want to keep control to themselves. Sadly, they might have a point with this suit. Not a about "free speech," mind you. But maybe the FTC doesn't have the authority to impose this restriction.
I've signed up for the DMA do not call list, and it seems to be working. I've only had my phone number for a year, though, so I got very few calls even before I signed up. Now I get none, except from the local paper.
The rules should be set in stone before the election process starts. If you have to go to court, it's too late, IMHO, to have a fair result. At that point, both sides are obviously very biased, and will push for whatever suits their candidate best, not necessarily whatever is fair. Even if they have good arguments, their motives are certainly in question.
And yes, it looks a lot like "bickering" to me. A lot like the bickering my brother and I would do after flipping a coin to settle some dispute.
"You dropped it. It doesn't count!"
"Yes it does!"
"No, it doesn't"
"Mommmmmmmm!"
These elections are turning out the same way:
The fair thing to do is ________________, which just happens to benefit my candidate, __________________.
I'll say it again, we should come up with more concrete rules beforehand. Have we learned nothing from the Election of 2000?
My favorite quote from that movie is when Sean Connery is training the natives in the military art, and he tells them something to the effect of, "now you can slaughter your enemies like civilized men!"
With a headline like "Giant Arctic ice shelf breaks up," I sure wish they had some more compelling photographs to show us. That one little picture sure looks like a stock photo of ice to me. Just what does this broken ice shelf look like?
When most people here refer to "NAT" they actually mean to refer to "IP Masquarading," i.e. hiding a [private] network behind one [public] IP address. But, that's not the only kind of NAT. You can also have a one-to-one mapping of IP addresses, so all your machines are still addressible. And I'll bet there are other ways to do it too; I'm no expert.
Does anyone here remember the joy of having public IP addresses and having everything just work? None of this 192.168.x.x stuff. None of these problems trying to get connections to work inside and out of your private network.
I think a lot of people forget what a pain NAT is because they've gotten used to it - even to rely on it for "security."
That's good advice for life in general. But, in this specific situation, if this guy is considered "late" after one minute and repremanded for it, then my opinion is that he should be similarly lauded and rewarded for being one minute early. Otherwise, the policy is needlessly harsh, I think.
Now, if there's a meeting or something every morning at 7:30, then it's a different story. It's important to be on time for appointments, but just to start work at your desk, why should they care?
Yeah, right. No offense, but that's a pretty feeble explanation. Whenever I hear someone say, "I could care less," he/she uses the same inflection and tone one would use with "I couldn't care less."
It's fairly obvious from this, and the mangling of other common sayings into less-than-sensical phrases, that many people do not think carefully about what they are saying - not down to the level of individual words, anyway.
I'm not complaining, just observing. In the end, I still know what they mean to be saying.
Similarly, the universe doesn't care how much you want cold fusion to be fake. Obviously, we aren't sure yet if it can be done. For anyone to definitively claim one way or the other is pointless.

Ummmm, the temperature where vira die is probably more like 200 degrees (Fahrenheit), rather than 100.

It always seems to be tree branches falling. Look for the guy with an axe (or chainsaw).
Well, what I meant was that the doctor is the most qualified to decide what test or care is needed, and shouldn't be restricted needlessly.
