The 6809's indexed indirect addressing modes were funky. (Slow, but funky.)
I've got a couple of Qix arcade boards kicking around that I should do something with: Dual 6809's (one for game logic, the other for video), a 6802 for sound, and strangest of all, an RS232 port on the board.
Perhaps it's time to sacrifice my Atari ST colour monitor and actually build a Qix game.
Nope, the undocumented HCF instruction on the 6502 cause the processor to lock up, and rapidly increment through the address space. It was possibly used for hardware testing.
The German government isn't too happy about the fact that at least of couple of the companies that write utilities used in Windows are associated with the "Church" of $cientology.
And given $cientology's record of infiltrating government offices in the US, Canada, Greece, France, etc, the thought of proprietary code gives them the creeps.
If it's open source, their backdoor will have to be well hidden in the encryption algorithm. And if you don't like their admin, change it. Sheesh!
As for agents, they won't use this system. "Hey, Joe Shmoe in New Jersey just accessed the Taliban crypto server. Wadda ya think?" This is just for standard government communications. Agents would probably use the modern equivilent of one-time pads.
According to the article, it's because they're only made of hydrogen. (The other elements only get created as the first generation burns out/explodes.) All other elements on Earth came from a previous generation of stars.
When I heard "WebPad", I immediately flashed on an image of a commercial:
WebPad -- for those light-traffic days when you still need complete protection. WebPad fits your information needs perfectly, but still fits inside your purse. WebPad will absorb all your information with no leaks, and no bulky installation.
WebPad, 133t enough for a geek, but made for a woman.
For the real manly types it needs a name like "DataSlab"
It's too bad that most 486-66's are now landfill. (Although I rescued a couple when my company tossed some -- they run Linux just fine!) They'd do just fine in a 3rd world country for email, fax or even light browsing.
"In this village, none of the children have ever fragged someone. Please do your part to help out."
Their security warning is quite good, and explains the problem clearly. I'll give them a point for that at least. (They could have just kept mum about it, since there's only a few weeks to go.)
After a bit of spammer LARTing, you learn how to read headers. I never pay attention to the From field because it's anyways fake.
It can be tough to track them when they use open servers in Korea or China -- But all spammers have one weak spot: They want your money. So if the email address isn't valid, they have to provide a physical address or a phone number.
Oh? And how do you plan to attach it to the Internet? That cable could be a problem. Hmm... No, actually it wouldn't. Perfectly safe! Nothing to worry about! (Say, could you put me in your will?:^)
Of course an IR connection would be fine, but will your bathroom fit a PC?
Sapphire, built by Stanford University, carries a couple of experiments and a voice synthesizer microchip designed to convert text messages into a human voice for transmission over amateur radio frequencies.
"Daisy Daisy give me your answer true.."
The funky thing is that due to Doppler shift, it would be higher pitch as it approached, and shift downward as it passed.:^)

And SETI could have found intellegent life in the first three minutes too.

Bell 202 modems, I believe. 1200 baud one way, 75 theother.

Of course, it was US intelligence people that trained him, in part, in the first place.

FORTH LOVE IF HONK THEN
I have a certain fondness for Forth-like languages because they were so easy to boot-strap on 8-bit micros.
"That which does not kill a task makes it stronger"?
I wonder if they'll do a crack cocaine scratch'n'sniff stamp?
On the other hand, I'd pay good money (well, CDN$ anyway) for a set of scratch'n'sniff Coffees of the World stamps. Mmmm, Blue Mountain...
What's wrong with Shepherd's Pie? (Other than the fact that it rarely has any real shepherds in it.)

/.? Wow, where can I get some of that?

That sort of brings new meaning to karma whore, doesn't it.

The plane impacts probably cracked off some of the concrete around the supports.
Spammers are SO DUMB that they'll spam abuse@ email accounts, or even .mil accounts. Way!

So? Plug the Internet Traffic Report into one of these mapping program, colour code it, and let'er rip!
But, we could place GPS satellites orbiting other bodies to use for solar system navigation.
But that would wreck that old cliche of Science Fiction: "Lost on an alien world, with no idea of how to get back to base."
And don't talk to me about Cell Phone satellites!
