  1. Re:SpamArrest is far, far cooler on NYTimes: Tangled Up in Spam · · Score: 1

    And of course this is the most stupid idea I have ever seen!
    Ever subscribed to an online-service, or had a membership _somewhere_?

    I really hate those guys who use this kind of service, and try to subscribe to one of our bulletin-boards.
    "Hey, i tried to register, but I don't receive mail from you!"

    Hell yeah, and you never will, because I am not willing to click a link for every one of those people who think they are sooooo smart by using this kind of "anti spam feature".

    The solution? Bouncing mails are now sent to /dev/null for some obvious reason

    That's why submarines use sonar and no radar, as water doesn't allow them microwaves to properly "move around".

    Or am I wrong?


    Uhm, I forgot about the real issue:
    That's why you won't be able to use some 802.11-Access for this, as it's based on electro-magnetic waves, known as microwaves AFAIR.

  4. Re:Better Pics on The Euro · · Score: 1

    Having seen the Euro-bills in real:
    these pics are somewhat boring.
    The real bills have tons of glitter (?) and those MS-license-lookalike holograms.
