Seeing as they were criticized for taking so long to bring out an expansion, while continuing to add content to the game, I'd have to say that you're the only one. I guess only time will tell.
Precisely my concern. The Geek-a-Cycle is just ergonomically wrong.
If there was a product like this, that didn't promote bad ergonomics, I'd be interested. Forget the hoakey pedal to keep the power going. That's just a lame gimick. If you're not interested enough in exercising, such a device wouldn't keep you motivated. You'd just disconnect it.
However, I'd like to have something for my legs to do while at the PC. If I'm doing something that requires concentration, I just wouldn't pedal. Meanwhile, there are lots of times when I'm trying to come up with ideas, and something like this would actually help.
He's not dismissing the security concerns. He's mearly stating that the article is nothing but fluff. Most of those attack vectors boil down to some kind of injection.
I am disappointed by the lack of substance, as well. This piece is intended for managers, so they can sound like they know what they're talking about.
Started off at M$...now it's trying to be standard.
It's implemented in SharePoint Portal Sever (SPS) formerly know as Tahoe.
It's pretty cool, actually...tries to find the compromise between a beefy versioning system and something that can be employed with HTTP headers and XML "messages."
As far as SPS is concerned...it can search many M$ documnets, like Word, Excel...prolly can search *.pdf docs as well.
Well, don't we backstab commericial providers from their lawful income when making free software of same kind?.
Free software is there for people that don't want to shell out the extra cash for an overpriced softare package. There almost always seems to be a slight trade-off in polish (sometimes quality), but the price gap is usually larger then the quality gap. And if it's open source, the onus is on you to roll up you're sleaves and jump in...
Don't we infact backstab the artists when downloading mp3s? They have to live too.
Well, who's backstabing us by charging $16 for something that costs pennies a piece to manufacture. Can they still argue that we're paying for the research. (Or are we now paying for current research into new media, which the companies will overcharge for arguing 'Hey reasearch costs alot...') And oh, yeah, music CD's started at about $12, what happened to the promised drop in price once research was paid for...? They've actually managed to pull up the price of cassettes!
And to add insult to injury, you pay $40,$50 sometimes $70 for a concert ticket, only to be overcharged for everything from parking to water. At least PHISH and some other bands allow the free sharing of 'bootlegs', as long you're not makig money off 'em. (ok, this doesn't cover studio cd's but the community is so strong I don't think you'd get away w/ pirating copies of their commercial cd's within the 'bootlegging' community...)
Oh, yeah...why am I paying for a small part Puffy's legal defense when that idiot pulls out a gun in a nightclub? Or why am I'm I paying for artists drug habits, cars, huge homes, you name it...? Not only do we empower these arstists, it get's to be that they expect it...or worse yet, they believe they deserve it. I know one 'regional' band that can't get signed (their sound doesn't seem to be mainstream enough), yet they're popular enough to make regular, albeit small west-coast tours? Who drive to their local gigs in an ugly, blue bus that putters up hills at about 40mph max...What happened to the dedication to your art?
Anyway, I relinquish the soapbox...

Then what does it rely on? Are you using NAT (Network Address Translation) or maybe a proxy on your firewall? I have a similar setup, most TCP/IP apps don't have a problem with it..

Yah, but the thing is that both of those examples are lighter on the content side.
GW is basically an MMO for FPS fans; easy to pick up and play for short periods of time. Meanwhile, EVE relies heavily on player created 'content.'
I like both games, but neither has as much content as the traditional MMO; which WoW certainly tries to be.
BTW, EVE's fee is $15/month. (Same as WoW.)
Seeing as they were criticized for taking so long to bring out an expansion, while continuing to add content to the game, I'd have to say that you're the only one. I guess only time will tell.
You both miss the point.
WinXP SP2 boxes are "safe" because they have the firewall on by default.
Meanwhile, "secure by default" only lasts until a new vulnerability is found.
