my biggest clue is that i run my own freaking domain and i dont employ anyone to look after my domain, and i certainly haven't got anyone at staff@ on my domain.
first thing i did was forward it to about 3-4 antivirus places (yea so what if it was already know, i had never recieved it before. But i've had thousands of "Final update to Microsoft Internet Explorer" and "message bounced" emails before)
bahaha, if you do the search, you get the parent poster as a response.

I don't give a shit just as long as it doesn't land in *MY* mailbox. I'm not a fucking american[1] and don't need to see their worthless campeignmongering.
The question is, just how many email inboxes will they obliterate with this?
[1] This is not against you americans, but mroeso the miserygut lameasses that run your country. oh wait, i have John Howard & Abbot Costello or whoever the hell he is to contend with.
My old dual Pentium 75 (yeah, zoomingly fast) was used for ages as a playbox, then one day i decide to pack it away to recover deskspace, i heard a little *tink*tink*tink* like something was loose in the case. I opened it up out of curiosity, and there was a 10-15uF electrolytic capcitor rolling around the bottom of the case.
FCC be damned, it still ran like a charm when i plugged it in to see if the smoke came out.:-)
Just follow this simple guide and you can do it too. 1) Simply allow the drive cable to go next to the back of a network card and lean on the network card. 2) Puncture the scsi cable with the pins on the back of the network card. 3) power up the computer. [1]
The scsi card was toast and went pop like a toaster too! But the network card kept shifting packets!!
[1] Another fun activity is turning yourself into a lightglobe by playing with an external scsi hard drive casing that is turned on, and has the casing removed.
Pretty big whinge there, but i was also disapointed in a few glaring errors i noticed. i admit i didnt notice *THAT* many, more like i only noticed about 20 or so, this was like three hundred.
We had a company do like this at my old work, except it was over the course of a week or so. It was good, group activities, and most importantly free food and a OPEN BAR TAB on everything except "top shelf" liquor & spirits!
a group of 18 of us racked up about a $3000-$4000 bar tab, then there was the cost of rooms at $140/night, food, activities. ahh we scored big time.
but funny enough management never offered to host one of these events ever again.
I mean whoop de fuck, how long has star war^H^H^Htrek, uh this space star stuff been re-inventing itself with bold new plotlines.
I mean for all we know at this rate of "viable stories" being churned out in the next series the first mate could be having a bloody Klingon lovechild[1]
For reference look up "The Bill", it's a UK tv show that was good for 10 or so years up until 3-4 seasons ago when it was re-written into a soapie, and i can barely stand the missus watching it, let alone ME.
yeah yeah, so i may be slightly off topic, SO WHAT?
Ok, sure that that is a given, but it still sucks that they force adverts down our throat. But then again "you don't have to visit the site" is an equally good comeback.
Having another look at the demo adverts i notced other things too. If you minimise the screen, it pops back up again, if you try and copy the url after it has fully loaded, it wont let you, if you look at the source

BAHAHA, i went to the unicast website and clicked on their test link, and "adzapper" on my proxy picked up on the link and all i saw was "this ad zapped!", *gleeful grin*.
This is starting to sound exactly like the argument & reasoning being used by spammers. Base64 encoding their messages so your Mailwasher and baysian(sp?) mail filters cant pick up on it and block it.
And as with spam, it is the end user that picks up the tab for the bandwidth used. Sure sites pay their hosting co's to send data, but hell think of it this way, 11-30kb for a page and maybe some small graphics compared to WASTING 100-300kb (plus the 11-30kb page that was loaded anyway). I can see how this makes sense too. and esp considering the revenue raised "per click", etc..
My isp had this happen to them last week: -- 30/12/2003: Dear %ISP% Clients,
AOL are currently blocking all %ISP% emails entering their mail server. Blockage of %ISP% addresses is also occuring on the rr.com domain.
The removal of the blockage has already been requested and an update on this fault will be made when %ISP% are advised further by the Security Company hosting the blacklist.
%ISP% has been advised the removal will occur in a timely manner, but have not been given a specific ETA.
Thank you for your patience in this matter. -- 02/01/2004 - Dear %ISP% Clients,
The interim fix appears to have resolved the issue for clients trying to send messages to AOL email addresses. The blocking of rr.com emails is still being investigated.
This makes no donkey dick difference to me. i don't know anyone using AOL.
Im Australian, dont forget our troops. Do you remember our PM? The little balding spectacle wearing dude with a pair of eyebrows with lives of their very own *twitch*. Do you even remember him going to the US and being given praise by Bush? no i didnt think so.
America & their war on terror, George has his head stuck far up his own back passage. This was all about oil^H^H^HWMD's. The fact alone that Saddam was a dictator and was horribly cruel to his own people and deserved to be ousted was a side benefit for the people that he made suffer.
Oh yeah, the world is *SO* much a safer place now. Can anyone goddamnwell say "Bali"?
Well with that and all those bounced email to rocketmail that i never remember sending out. I mean, who is sjkionseg@rocketmail.net and why did i send him an email in the first place?

RTFA,
Some female astronaut had a kid that wanted Barney to go into space.
I have Redhat 4.2 on cd if it helps any. oh wait im not in america (is that a bad or a good thing?)

I've let the smoke out of a 8bit scsi controller.
